You think that Africa is all fucked up because of white people?
Yes. Africa has its own problems but their major problem would be us. Our white-dominated nations and our white-dominated soulless corporations extract much more wealth from Africa than our more benevolent citizens supply in aid. The African nations are being completely stripped of minerals, metals and other natural resources that are shipped away to quench our insatiable thirst for mindless consumption, for driving a Hummer and buying a new couch every year while half the world is starving to death. And we pay rock bottom prices for those resources, extorting the African nations to sell off the natural wealth of their nations with a debt hanging over their head, a debt to be paid with interest for aid received in the past.
Look at the map of Africa - see all the almost straight lines? America has em too - it means the land was stolen and arbitrarily divided among the conquerors. Many unrest in Africa is directly caused by the past and present influence of white people on the continent.

Is it white people who are shooting brothers in the ghetto in America? Nope...it's black people.
You really don't dig too deeply do you? Why are black people empoverished and living in third-world like ghettos in the first place? Name one period in history where black people in the US were equally well off as white people.
To the first... consider blood diamonds. Diamonds are worth a lot the world over. White corporations didn't go into Africa and say, take these guns, kill people, and recruit child soldiers, take slaves and bring us diamonds. The Africans did all that on their own. We didn't cause that. There were price incentives of course, but in the end, the warlords made the decision on their own to kill and rape. White people are not to blame. Human greed is to blame.
Look at South Africa. It was organized and well developed when whites ruled. Once apartheid ended, there was chaos. Africans went around burning schools, hospitals, and homes for the elderly. Animals were sacrificed in the street, and witches started mutilating children to use their genitals in magic rituals. Now, South Africa is a crime ridden place with the highest instance of car theft in the world, not to mention rape. Rape is such a problem there, they have those rape prevention vaginal inserts.
Look at Zimbabwe. When whites ruled and ran the agriculture, it was known as the breadbasket of Africa. They produced enough grain to feed themselves and many other African countries. After blacks took the country by force, the black "President" threw out or killed all the whites running the farms. He put the farms in the hands of inept blacks, and now Zimbabwe is so poor and starving it has to rely on the charity of the US and the UN, taking food from whites.
As for blacks in the US, they have been given every chance. In fact, they have more opportunities than whites now. They can get scholarships just for being black, while whites have to work for scholarships on their own hard work.
Asians had a hard time in America too. They were used as slave labor in California building railroads. But they rose above it, and are now about equal standing with Caucasians in America.
Look at Jews- they've been persecuted longer than any other race on the planet, and they haven't let it keep them down. They work hard and rise above it, even though there's far less of them than blacks. They are richer on average than Caucasians, and score better on standardized testing than Asians.
Young blacks as a group aren't concerned with bettering their situation. They're concerned with emulating hip hop stars or sports stars. They want to be hard, and "gangsta".
In my area, there have been many instances I'm personally familiar with where high school aged blacks who try hard and get good grades and mercilessly ridiculed by their peers for "acting white". Members of their own race are trying to hold them back and keep them down, because they thing they're being Uncle Toms for working hard and doing well in school.
Don't give me the bullshit socioeconomic argument. My girlfriend came from nothing, her family was trash and dirt poor. Social services came and took her and her brother away from their junkie mother and stuck them with other family members. She worked her ass off all through high school to get good grades, worked her ass off to buy a car and establish credit, and worked full time to save money for college and then got student loans. She's 21, almost finished with her degree, lives in a nice apartment, owns her own car, and she paid for all of it out of her pocket without any help from her family. She pays for her car, her home, her food, her insurance, her schooling, everything, herself.
America really is the land of opportunity. As long as you try hard, you'll go places. Blacks here generally just don't try hard enough. They feel like the white man and the government owes them something. They don't get to bitch and complain about their situations when they fail in school.
You don't buy bling. You don't trick out your car. You don't waste your money on fancy clothes and shoes. Don't drink, don't do drugs, they cost money. Save it up, work harder, build credit, get a loan, go to college.
My girlfriend is solid proof that if you work hard, you go far, even if you come from dirt.
