Why are white people like you two so obsessed with black people?
And that's not racist. The white race is more advanced than the black race today because of their history. Many were enslaved and and taken to other parts of the world and a significant amount of the African continent is in shambles because of colonization.

You do know that Africa was relatively backwards before Europeans arrived, right? And that it was Africans themselves who sold each other into slavery?
Not saying that blacks are inferior, but I cannot allow such mistruth to continue.

I'm sure all continents at that time had their share of backward practices, but how does counter what I said about the status of many countries there now? And I'm aware that some Africans sold others into slavery and many of their war prisoners and criminals.
What about the blacks that never left Africa? Why is sub-sahara Africa still in shambles, and most of its income comes from South Africa, which was founded by European colonists?
It is incorrect becouse colonization is not the reason that Africa is in a poor state. The people who are native to the area are simply unable to maintain a stable society.

Read the part of the post that NorthernLegend underlined when he quoted me.

You can't support that with evidence. It's just your opinion because of some bias you seem to have against them. I really do think that colonization has played a part; why is that all the poorest peoples of the world have had a history involving colonization---Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, natives in Australia and South America?

The proof is all around you. The ghettos and crime ridden areas of the world are poulated by "minorities", while the upperclass areas are not. Coincidence perhaps?

At least they know how to work for their money. Most everything is handed to a white man. Not to mention black men know the value of a dollar.
Hmmm...the next president of America may be a black man or a woman.
And because you hate black men I know you think women are lesser of people then white males as well.
So you might as well leave the country now.
Or kill yourself.
Either way it would be doing America a huge favor.

Take Vietnam. It was colonized for a long time, fought a war against the colonizers, then fought another war right after that war. Now Vietnam is rather well off, concerning finances and stability.
Now why can Asians recover after being colonized and fighting a bloody civil war and Africans can't? Why is it that African coutnries can't stop having coups and start exploiting their resources in order to generate profit? It's simple, the races are not equal.

Please back this up. I'm not asking for sources since I haven't provided any yet, but at least explain what "knowing the value of the dollar" means.
Blacks have wellfare, food stamps, government jobs, black only scholarships, and affirmative action. That's more than what whites get, since there aren't any jobs or college money you can get for simply being white. Still, with all this help, why do blacks still surpass eveybody else in crime and poverty?
Why do most people seem regard Africa as a country and not a continent? It is France or Italy or United States or Mexico or Brazil or Argentina or Mongolia or China, not Europe, North America, South America or Asia. Look at the countries as countries and stop grouping all African nations together. Let's see if we can make sense of this mess, shall we?
