The renaissance of the African continent (including Nigeria) has already begun - and as we look forward to a better and prosperous Africa, we need to celebrate some of our black heroes.

Here are some pictures of Malcolm X, Maya Angelou, and W.E.B Du Bois in Africa - and also Kwame Nkrumah, during his visit to Nigeria in 1959:

I read about this visit. WHen Malcolm X tried to inspire pan Africanism as the way forward for the black race. HE spoke about how African countries need to unite and seek reparations for the years of slavery they suffered. Little did he know that he was appealing to coons and uncle Toms. One is not surprised at the lack of responses here. If it was about big butts or someone showing off a borrowed car we woulda had over 20 pages
