Africans are telling Black Americans to stop blaming slavery on Africans, which is the truth is like Black Americans are telling Africans to stoo blaming White people for fucking up their country economically and politically, which is true.

Trayvon Martin's case turned out that way because of the foolishness of his girlfriend and mother. Nothing else.

Well, the mom should have cried out when an all white jury made of women was selected and the girlfriend portrayed Trayvon as a racist little thug who probably had issues with whitey. The end.

The Mother of Trayvon is not responsible for his Murder!!

So you are admitting there was racism in this case now?

What is so special about him anyway? He's not even known. I never heard of him until now you called him.

Ever heard of 'Father of the Internet' before? That's Philip Emeagwali, an Igbo man. He didn't discover the internet but he revolutionized it. cool

He didn't give himself that title. People did. tongue

Just type 'Philip Emeagwali' on google and hit search. Boom! grin

Now which is a more important contribution, revolutionizing the internet or drawing some colours using crayons on pieces of clothes which Jayvarley sees as 'a huge contribution' to brag about with? Lmao! Is that the best african americans got? Moreover, Marcus ain't even AA! Lmfao!!! grin grin

If you do not know anything about Marcus Garvey I suggest you Read UP FAST!!

Even many of your own countrymen would be offended to hear you insult him LIKE THAT! lipsrsealed

You need to learn about his contributions to the BLACK RACE.

If you STAND on any HIGH STREET around the world and SHOUT the name MARCUS GARVEY OR Philip Emeagwali, YOU WILL SEE who's name is more known without a shadow of a doubt!!

here are the facts about black slave owners in america...

http://slaverebellion.org/index.php?page=the-black-slave-owners

The very first one and the first generation of them were black skinned AFRICAN BORN males. ("the apple" does not WHAT? Lol oh ok)

Second the most common were Mullatos who viewed themselves as being racially superior to their darker counterparts. These were children of slave women and their slave masters who INHERITED these slaves. (this was a SMALL population)

Third...black skinned women (and men) who in the case of those they looked out for, they would make them their legal property to ensure they were treated fairly.

I think some folks need to try again.

About these "black slave owners"

"The majority of black slave owners were members of the mulatto class, and in some cases were the sons and daughters of white slave masters.  Many of the mulatto slave owners separated themselves from the masses of black people and attempted to establish a caste system based on color, wealth, and free status. According to Martin Delany, the colored community of Charleston City clung to the assumptions of the superiority of white blood and brown skin complexion These mulattoes of the old free Black elite did not attend church with the dark-skinned blacks of Charleston City.  They not only formed congregations which excluded freedmen of dark complexion, but they only married among other mulattoes to “keep the color in the family.”"

Now I can understand a half bred coon who inherited the power and prestige..but a PURE born man selling his own blood tho? nah bruh.

"The first laws regarding the status of Africans recognized the free blacks.  The first status was passed in 1662 provided that the status of offspring should follow that status of the mother.  What this law did was to allow white fathers to enslave their own children, and free women of color to perpetuate the free black population.  In other words, it also guaranteed freed black females the right to extend their free status to their children.  Black women who have served their indentured period would not provide foundation for the free black community.  Many of those African who were grandfathered in the new system not only became the free black community, but this is the origins of Black slave owners The act of 1668 dealing with the condition of the colored population related solely to the tax obligations of a free black woman, and two years later an act guaranteed to “negroes manumitted or otherwise free” the right to own servants of their own race and expressly denied to them the right to purchase or to own white or “Christian servants.”  This law recognized and sanctioned slavery, but also guaranteed the continuity of the free black class, who were now largely mulatto."

These (African born) folks not only knew what it was like...and sued for their freedom...but became freemen who would procreate with whites and enslave their own...

I just read up on him and I don't see any thing sparkling or amazing about him. He was a political leader and a member of UNIA. So what? What about that? You make me laugh real hard!

AAs have been in US since 1600 till now and they are yet to make significant scientific discoveries while you have recent African migrants coming to the US[Philip Emeagwali, Chinua Achebe(I'm sure you've heard of that one too. Another Igbo man known for his brilliance and contributions to literature. His book, 'Things Fall Apart' is commonly read in many US secondary schools), Chimamanda Adichie(another prolific Igbo lady writer who has made significant contributions in the area of literaturewink and what have you] to make significant contributions, make groundbreaking inventions and break barriers no AA have broken before.

Did I blame her for the murder? No. She didn't pick the jury but she could have voiced her opinion from day one that she didn't have faith the jury. She didn't and the father also kept quiet and they said they had faith in the jury. So what the hell did you negroes expect? That a jury of all white women who "cling to their purse" when a young black man like Trayvon is walking pass them would sympathize over his death? Then the girlfriend who is in dire need of a weight loss program came in to put a nail on his coffin by portraying him as a racist. lol, once again, you negroes are the ones responsible for your own predicament. You are only good at whining when you didn't get the results you expected. Cry me an ocean?
Re: Slavery in the United States (1775-1865) by bigfrancis21: 8:07pm On Sep 05, 2013
Atlanta Mayor, Kasim Reed's ancestry has been traced to a full Igbo ancestry. He doesn't even have a combination with other african tribes nor have european ancestry. His DNA testing turned up 99% Igbo. Such results are rare where you have an AA's DNA traced to only one african tribe. It means that over the years, his Igbo genes and DNA had remained pure and undiluted and had been passed down from generation to generation untainted till present. That also means his mothers, grandmothers and most females who contributed to his gene pool also had significant Igbo ancestries as well!

Later some lady with no J.O.B be runnin' her mouth saying 'we are too mixed to be traced to one tribe'. Lmao!

Lady, you know yourself. grin

Who told you African Americans have not contributed anything to Science?

No you are beginning to look silly. Do you not Know that any scientific works and discoveries by AA'S were hidden and released under white persons name! That was just the rule of the day I have a book with many great Black Inventors. I will dig it out and post you the name!!

Do you not know that in the US up to the 1970's whenever a black man sung a beautiful song, a white singer would redo the song over the take away the credit from black people?

Or did you not know that?

Also you need to learn properly about Garvey instead of making snap judgements when you do not know the facts!!
