over 150yrs after slavery and over 40 years after colonisation we still don't get it. when shall we learn that unity is the key. we live in a world where almost everybody is prejudiced against the black man. the indian feels blacks are a set of hopeless people who just have no sense(ghandi was purported to have told indians to wake up and not be like the africans). the white man thinks we are good for slavery. even ourselves we attack each other. we don't get it that the greatest weapon used against us was the weapon of divide and rule. the white man used it during slavery. kingdoms rose against kingdoms to their advantage. black man sold his brother into slavery. white man gained. the white man still uses the same style even today. rebels were used by special forces to topple the taliban. i watched a programme on fox news where they were debating using the divisions in Iran to their advantage. that is the style. division. and yet the black world is divided. even simple thread opened to discuss some issues with a friend turned out to be a theatre of battle between AA and CA.HABA.  At this rate we as a poepl have no future in the Global village. our total liberation is being postponed another 500 years. |

Thankyou thats what i wanted to hear.
Because thats the first thing you have to know your goals, aims.
Maybe people like mazaje may think to eat pounded yam but that too is an aim

toshmann,
We is all scared. We is all new at this. We are all getting to our feet. Let us forgive one another as we forgive ourselves.
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like that river I've been running ever since
It's been a long time coming
But I know a change is going to come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
because I don't know what's out there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is going to come, oh yes it will
And then I go to see my brother
And I ask him to help me please
And he just winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees
There were times when I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, been a long time coming
But I know a change is going to come, oh yes it will
Sam Cooke (sung by Al Green is the best version) A change is going to come.

What are these common goals?, Most AAs don't care about Africa, that is the truth.

Donzman,
The Common goal at this stage: A Black Education.

Yeah, maybe AA's need black education but Africans do not need anything of that nature right now. Thanks for proving my point!

Donzman,
I am on a board, where Continental African people have seriously defended the idea that whites made Africa better and we need their rule back and so on.
Don't try to bullshyt us that Continental Africans need less of a Black Education than African Americans.

People have their opinions, doesn't mean you should feed them with agenda. How is your agenda so much different from the white man you hold such contempt for?,  I don't need your black education, na by force? See me see wahala oh! |

Donzman,
Please tell me what my agenda is, so then I will be able to see why you consider it the same as the whiteman's.
You know the story about the Elephant. They tie a heavy chain to him as a child and then when the Elephant grows up, he remembers the chain and will not go past where the chain went, even though now he is tied with only a little rope.
It's not a crime to force the Elephant to break his little rope and go past where his mind would take him.

We are not animals,
And we do not need a black education.
IN fact its time to stop talking bla bla bla.
Its time to do something.
There are more important common goals than talking about it

To Donzman, we need peace here, we don't need your neurotic baseless arguments, What are these common goals?, Most AAAsaon't care about Africa, that is the truth.
I don't really see you caring about the AAs either, is relative don't you think so?, have you not shown your hatered enough?, I think am going to puke is people like you that are creating this problems, bring your well layed ass back in here and come with something positive and constructive for a change, camman!. Toshman, I can only say kudos, there would be a come back, you 've really evolved, I must confess. |

@DonzmanWhat are these common goals?, Most AAs don't care about Africa, that is the truth. A lot of them don't care because they feel Africans don't care about them. Stop acting like AA people have to come up to the level of Africans just because they are the result of slavery and maybe you feel they are not pure enough. AA people are just as strong as C/A weather you believe it or not and Africans should learn to view them as equals instead of someone who has to come up to their level. AA people feel it should be a compromise, you should meet them at their level as well. Oh well, both sides are arrogant and don't want to give up their pride for the sake of kissing ass. Isn't it a shame that we feel like that towards each other? Yet we can go and work for white people above and beyond our call of duty.

i think A.A are no less C.A if they choose to identify with them.victims of war are not just those that are dead or lost properties no matter how hard as it maybe.

in my opinion A.A outside Africa goes through more trauma than C.A resident in Africa.
Beco the whites would hardly see them as white and some blacks still discriminate aganist them.
