A classical prove is the Ethiopian bible which is written by Ethiopians in their ancient language, its written around the 17th century
This is no proofs, this is you telling me more tales, point me to the link where i can read these proofs myself. Besides, where did the Ethiopians get their inspirations and idea of the bible and God from?

Please don't tell me more tales you and I can not confirm.

Its shows we have problems with mindset, It seems Kenya wants to do away with the dollar.

I also saw a documentary, when the women of Kenya, who go to the middle east were treated badly, their government stopped Kenyans from going to work as house maids, although some still find a way to circumvent the ban.

I think That Kenyan President is trying to stand up, but its not about showing off alone, they really need to improve their education, and HDI.

Not all Africans will remain bound like that, but we have problems with violence. For example Mozambique, also a rich country, recently suffered attacks' on some energy facilities, due to some religious fanatics.

True, besides, it doesn't matter how much Africa keep repeating stories about slavery, Africa are designed to be slaves to Europeans, Africa are still slaves to Europeans, Africa will always be slaves to Europeans. Everything that happens in Africa financially and otherwise are controlled by Europeans. Imagine, Nigeria basing all their economy survival on the rate of American dollar.

Do your research, they got it directly from the Israelites. Even in the gospel, there was an Ethiopian eunuch, who was baptized as he was going back home. Also east African and that region had more close contact with the Israelites and has access to original manuscripts.

I am not sure where the Queen of Sheba came from to listen to Solomon, apart from the region around Arabia (Yemen), she is could have come from Cush or Ethiopia. The point is Even ancient Ethiopian Kings were Christians. You can look it up, instead of just dismissing what comes to you, then you will show that you have researched on it and can make bold assertions.

This is common knowledge and it is not something to debate about.

smiley Just like how Europeans sat in Europe and decided to divide and force various Africans to live together, for the usefulness and benefits of the Europeans, and Africans had no clue.

The greatest holocausts happened in Congo, The king of Belgium under the guise of civilizing the Africans, conquered Congo, and put them to force Labor, and then he made other Africans and the slave traders to manage the people. If the people did not work, they lost their hands and limbs.

After the atrocities, The Belgium King lost his African estate, but the Belgian State, continued his legacy in disguise, while forced slavery was abolished, their education taught them that black man is bad and that was the only Education they had. The result was the Belgium State continued to steal their resources, since its very cheap to do so, and the people do not even know how to use it and make value for themselves.



how was the white man able to do all this to aftica. was it because their culture was better or they had advanced technology.
btw u can go and read about the opium war. china didnt use that as an excuse. They realised they were far behind and did everything to catch up.
what did congo do to catch up?

Sudan and the Congo have being massarcaring their fellow country people unbehalf of the Europeans. Europeans funding and coercing Africans to murder themselves to benefit themselves.


And then they make up rubbish like "cease fire" Africans stops blowing their own country up and killing their fellow citizens for 1 week and then starts again after the so called "cease fire" i mean, if war can be stopped for a week, why can't the war be stopped permanently?


All these chaos are created by the Europeans to keep Africa destroyed, ignorant, poorer, backwards and easy to milk.

Even before the British colonized China, China civilization still maintained its rich inventions and accumulated knowledge because they wrote the information down and passed it to the next Generation. And they kept their knowledge from the whites.

They never forget their capacity and kept building on their strength. Chinese civilization invented bombs used in canon, they invented fireworks, they learned how to use the stars to calculate the times, they also had great architecture, just like other civilization, and they already had advanced writing and libraries. They were already advanced when the white came to them. Britain competed with them to earn from drug trade. Britain tried to control them and also tried to control Indians, but it was too hard. Given the great distance and logistics challenge, So many British were killed.

Mr Man stop going around in circle.
did Britain humiliate china or not? How can u sign an agreement that forces your people to be addicted to hard drugs. They even seize a piece of your land- hong kong to ensure they have direct access to supply opium to china.
Go and read why the west went to war with china because of opium. chinese people even called it era of humiliation.

Yes china had civilisaton and technology but they were outdated by the time they met the west and modern Japan, thus they got trounced.
modern china isnt about any old civilisation. They simple clawed on the back of western leaders stupidity, forced technology, hacking and technology spy etc to become a superpower.

Even vietnam that fought a brutal civil war with the west and then china is already catching up while congo is still moaning over king leopold atrocity. waht do u want to do about it? invade belgium or demand compensation?
africa always laying emphasis on the wrong things.
African men should develop the continent if for anything the sake of their women and children, enough of excuses.

I think that is good conclusion. I may not agree totally, but it makes a suitable one. I can learn from some point. My knowledge is very limited.

It also shows how they use understandings/agreements and document to deceive.

Pan-Africanists continue to lie to themselves in order to justify their centuries of backwardness. Being unambitious ultimately led to the easy colonization by the French and the British and now, more than 60 years after decolonisation, the continent is yet to fix their problems - tribalism, corruption, extreme poverty, incompetent and greedy leadership, lawlessness and severely undereducated masses not to mention the fact that the lack of ambition still plaguing the continent till date.

I mean, why do you live in modern houses and not your "aesthetically appealing" round huts? Why do you use smartphones rather than depend on town criers? You don't prefer your ways, you simply lack the capability to evolve and make it better by yourself!



Think long and hard about this... What do you think any country on the African continent would be able to "bring to the table" in the next 2 centuries? Africans elect populist leaders who have no plan to develop their respective countries and when they're exposed as failures, they suddenly take a pan-Africanist, anti-west stance and soon become continental heroes - like the classic case of Museveni in Uganda.



I'd argue there's more freedom in the west. Hell, there's more freedom in North Korea but ok undecided
u guys should stop this black vs white,africa vs west rubbish,there is nothing preferred by all africans, i mean africans differ in many ways, there is nothing like our ways ,neither is there anything like their ways. rich africans dont need any freedom. to hell with the useless debates based on baseless exaggerations! when u die,u either enjoyed money or suffered most times, thats all,spits.

I have no idea what your point is but I'll address what I understood from your post. Not everything is about wealth though, like the issue of livability which is why "rich" Africans still travel outside their countries very often. And no, "our ways" is simply how Africans generally did things before any form of contact with Europeans in the 1400/1500s.

CNN and BBC have made the Westerners believe that. That's why I hate that useless movie: "Woman King", like why Africa of all places??

People believe that the Westerners are the most educated, but I believe that they're the most ignorant! They still believe that Africa is a country, we wear animal skin as clothes, dwell in mud houses, use bow and arrow as weapons, etc. All thanks to the news media and fake movies...

The movie "woman king" was set back in time. Nothing wrong in that, history is history and if not palatable.... The future should be worked on undecided

Before globalization enabled exchange of innovations, everyone recognised the need for innovative means of getting things done. Don't criticize because you are last. It is this same mindset that makes northerners trash western education but sporadically celebrate it.
