Africans And The Shackles Of Slavery by Alariiwo: 10:32pm On Mar 13, 2018
Ok so I was having this thought about Slavery and Africans in general.

We've complained for years about how the White men brought their ships to Africa to enslave our fore fathers and also take them overseas to work in their farms and sugar plantations.

Today, same Africans see the White man's Visa approval as a dream come true, a means to escape their fatherlands. Graduates don't mind clening toilets, driving taxis and other menial jobs like that for money.
Some even clean shoes for the Whites for $1-5.

When will Africans be proud of their home and stop playing second fiddle to the Whites??

Take the Libya Slave Route saga for example..

Able-bodied men and women who don't mind getting raped, abused and all that just to cross into Europe.

We need serious re-orientation in this continent.

You still don't get it.. do you?

Asides International functions and family visits, I see no reason famzing the White man's land.

Why do Blacks keep making this mistake?
Live all your life there, pay tax and all there but expect to return home to a developed continent overnight.. Are we that slow?

It's really bad.

We must sit down and think for ourselves,
Africa can also develop to taste if her people are willing.

It is because we don't value what we have. We don't value ourselves and lack self worth generally. Think about it. How many blacks are bleaching their skins world wide? How many of our women are proud of their natural hairs or their husband proud of their wives natural hair?

We have this self hate and low self esteem, that is hard to really explain.

Oh no, the West doesn’t want that then we become their equals (most likely they become beggars)

Maybe we need revolution across Africa.
