Did you learn that in black mythology month? You forgot to mention that once upon a time blacks could fly and built the pyramids by levitating blocks mentally.

Everyone has had a role in the rape of Africa. Even some of the kings are responsible for selling their own into slavery, and eventually ending up slaves themselves. White men did nothing to stop the flow of slavery, rather they chose to label Africans as savages. They still don't want to admit that Africa had some of the oldest civilized cities in the world. The history of our great ancestry has been strewn abroad and there were other nations where history was repeated by word of mouth. When those historians were either sold off or killed off, so to was our history.

"The history of savagery" as you put it was there long before anybody white even set foot on that hell hole of a continent. Africans even today are enslaving other Africans, living in huts(not all but some), and even still some are canibals. These are not European values at all, do some homework. Seems to me teaching those people to act civilized is a lost cause. Even with todays technology and medicine we can't teach them basic agriculture or even to control the spread of AIDS among themselves.

Speaking as an African, Africa is in such an upheaval partly because of European colonization and tribal issues-many of which were created or further aggravated by the arrival of Europeans to Africa. Still, Africa can return to her former glory if her people and their aggressors are willing to set aside their differences and work for her great good.

LOL!!!!!!!
pledging???? you mean "pillaging" right?
The IMF (International Monetary Fund) Have done more damage than aii the imperialist nations combined.
in the 60's and 70's most African countries were fluorishing and becoming wealthy!
The west felt threatened and decide to impose certain restrictions e.g having them borrow money with over 62% interest and imposing "structral adjustment progams" which cut back on their infrastructure and left most of the countries still paying off hundreths of millions of dollars.
Alot more than we know took place behind the scenes.... as the truth is never fully told.
If you have any more questions.... IM me
PEACE!

I totally agree with Ester & Venom. Africa WAS a great place, then it wasn't, then it almost was again, but now it's not. It doesn't have to stay this way.

You should not care unless you are black. We have forums for that. Whites should not be a part "of the problem".

The British of course. They wanted to conquer the world. Lucky for us they didn't and probably never will.
