I have thought about this awhile & whether I should go here but as I was watching the news, which is depressing most of the time, I heard a black man say how much he hated whites & loved his home land of Africa. I thought about the statement & was puzzled by his point of view. It was Africans that sold blacks to most countries, including the United States. The reason was because the African government didn't put much worth on the African people who were poor. The original plan was to have United States business owners, purchase the Africans as indentured servants, which meant there would be a contract of so many years & once the contract was honored, the African indentured servant could have a piece of land, be set free of contract or go home. Considering where they came from, this wasn't the worst deal they could have.
The problems started when many African indentured servants began to multiply & become large voting blocks. this frightened some greedy white communities & the indentured servant plan became slavery & we know the rest.
The problem I have besides slavery, is that many black Americans are still whining about slavery & how their ancestors were picked on even though it was northern white Americans who gave their lives in the Civil war along with the leadership of President Lincoln, to free them & give them equal rights. Something never discussed during black rallies or history. Blacks were picked on in a terrible way by some people but so were the Indians, the Mexicans, the Irish, the Chinese, the Japanese, the Polish, The Mormon's & many other religious or community groups. The difference is, that everyone else has got off their butt & worked their way out of the problems they had. I am not speaking bad about blacks or individual black Americans but I am a little ticked off by the whining black movement which wants everything given to them because their family was picked on by a small group of sick Americans. I would like to see the same anger about the Country they love, Africa, who sold them for money. Which country did the most damage? I don't think it was America because have you seen Africa lately?
If you don't like it here, leave, go back to Africa. If you are here, quit whining & get a job like everyone else that has been picked on. I have no hard feelings towards you but I don't owe you anything.
