haha, I started a little controversy with my posts... but I think you guys arent understanding what I'm saying... First off re-read what I said and remember I said I
agree with the article...
Speak for yourself. I've never forced anyone against their will into the United States. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
No, but your ancestors did.
speak for myself? well I am not white and people can deny it all they want, but they should be held accountable for their ancestors actions. What happened had a huge impact on the black race and made changes that are still visible today in the black race... So blacks, Natives and others are suffering today for what happened back then, so why shouldn't whites be suffering? And actually through all of these things, it's not making whites suffer at all. How's a black college fund hurting any white people? How's a black television channel hurting any white person? or a black magazine?
and any race for that matter... like the Natives, why not give the land back to them? If people hadn't came and took over their land, they'd be running this country right now... we owe them at least some things, maybe not the whole country even though it was stolen...
ever see africa lately? they can't even afford to cloth or feed themselves, but they will have college funds, magazines, and televisions
well this must be a joke or just racist. There are many poor and messed up African countries for sure... but there are actually many well developed African countries. Look at all the diamonds that we value so much here, they all come from Sierra Leone, Ghana and places like that...
Also, there were times that African civilizations were the most advanced civilizations in the world... Did you ever wonder why they failed or fell apart? All of these people didn't just die, they were taken away to build a great European world.
but you left out the best, part most of them were traded to white people by other african tribes so in all reality they sold themselves out.
Blacks were exploited in these trades remember. The first blacks used as slaves were originally prisoners and people that deserved to be treated as slaves, then Europeans got a little greedy and exploited Africans, stole them and not all were fair traded slaves to Europeans.
But anyways, if you re-read what I wrote, you will see
I actually agree with his article, I just thought he didn't have all of the right facts there supporting it and that it was a very easily debated article because of that.
So don't get all mad, I'm not siding with any race over his article, I actually agree with it.
