Who do you think provided the basic amenities in the US. It was not the white man. 80% of inventions and amenities were black made but slaves cannot own right to inventions.

My question is why are we upset that they are playing the victim card when we as Nigerians play the victim card ALL the time.

The same way we are shocked about their "laziness" is the same way that they are shocked at our stupidity of not being able to vote out bad leaders.

So when you say "African americans stand up and work" let's also remember to tell ourselves "Nigerians stand up and get rid of these corrupt people in power"

The problem of Nigeria is not the leaders. The problem of Nigeria is the people with victim mentality who will not rise and change their leaders but prefer to lament daily.

So you know, a lot of those boys and girls on crack and weed became addicted in utero (in the womb) by their addicted mother who was supplied enough crack by white people. They are also doing it to the native Indians here so you have newborns addicted already.

Google will lie and tell you that it was the American Wright brothers who invented the plane but it is a big lie. The first person in flight was Alberto Santos a Brazilian. Trains were invented by the British. Africans invented ships

Frederick Jones, a black boy invented the AC, Generator, refrigeration for trucks.

White americans hardly invent anything. They only know how to dominate google search engine so their names come out on first click

Africans invented ships actually.
Africans invented so much. They were destroyed.
Africa had the two greatest libraries in the ancient world.
Till date, white people cannot figure out how africand built the pyramids of Egypt or the Benin Moat in Edo state.
So they destroyed the moat.

The father of Medicine is not Hippocrates from Greece, but Imhotep from Africa. Imhotep (through disciples and apprentices, not directly) taught Hippocrates medicine and when they conquered africa they changed the story

Shokoloko:


But I have just explained to you that these inventions you are talking about were mostly not invented in America. If you bring inventions from American alone, the black americans will take the lion's share of inventions. Dont add European inventors just because they are white

Even if the inventions were small, we are talking about quantity

First off, you need to stop referring to someone you are debating with as delusional. It's wrong practice. I have been on nairaland since 2006 so I am not a young lady and I should be accorded respect.

Now back to our debate. The victor in war writes history. Africa had inventions but these were destroyed. Join the facebook The Nigerian Nostalgia. You will see journals shared of white people marvelling at the system of governance and amenities in Africa. Worthy of note is the Benin kingdom. I am not from Benin.
So my dear, we had inventions. They just destroyed them

Now Frederick Jones did not wait to get to Africa. He was born in the US so he had to invent there. Have you gone to Aba and seen the magic that the young men do there? Does it not tell you that Africans have some extreme intelligence?

Shokoloko:


Have you heard of the slave trade? Do you know why Africans did not fight back? It was a TRADE. Very few slaves were kidnapped. It was a TRADE.
Do you know how angry one of the kings in Bonny island was when he heard that slavery was going to be abolished. ( Bro, go and research)

Go and read of Madam Tinubu and King Tegbesu, and Nwaubani Ogogo. You will know why slave trade was never stopped by Africans.
Who sold Olaudah equiano? Who sold Jaja of Opobo? They were sold by their kinsmen

Always remember that slavery was a trade from the locals to foreigners

sommyboi:


I was enjoying your assertion from the beginning, until it started looking like you're a white racist. That lady is smarter than you in all ramifications. You kept ranting uncontrollably, and being mildly insulting. I hate lazy people too, but you have deviated from your point of argument. Truly, there are lazy black Americans, but there are also the outstanding ones too. A visit to LinkedIn will give you another view of them. And yes, Africa had its own sophisticated technology before we knew about the white man. The war strategy used by Shaka Zulu is still in practice in those developed countries. The STEM courses we boast of, as the foundation of great civilization, have their roots in Africa (Egypt). Iron smelting in Africa predates the complex iron smelting in Europe. Even Elon Musk came from South Africa

Lets imagine, black people invented some of these things you have mentioned, why was there no transfer of technology?

What is there no major invention by any black person till today

ChizzyBuna:

Nah bruh
Someone said 80% of inventions in America was done by black slaves
80% ohhhhh not 20% but 80%
Meaning everything from trains,cars,telephone, and all were invented by black slaves.
I proud to be black but this wan off me I just dey laugh since
80%

You have come again with this your rubbish. Black people are not all lazy for shits sakes. Left with me self I believe a lot of Americans are lazy and entitled shits not just black people,very dumb people. I just Remembered a video showing interviews with some of them, how can a citizen of a country not know how many states hi country has.tufia

ogaAK:


I will mention only one which is the vaccination which we enjoy around the world now has been in african prolly around nigeria because it was introduced by a black man into america in boston around the seventheen eighty but due to tha fact that black man as no right to claim right to patents n inventions. The famous johnson n johnson brothers which am sure they prolly used one of their products for u when u were young stole this idea and built a world brand company even most of their products was invented by black people. Till today america has decided not to even release the name of the black slave because they don’t want to pay royalties to the family of the slave and change the patent right.
Cesarean section was invented in buganda part of current day uganda, doctors from America had to go and learn it from them during the slave trade era.
Electricity was not invented by thomas edission I cant remember d name of the black man who worked with tesla so as to develop electricity. Steam water engine used in farmers was invented by a black man. All the religion in the world was invented by black people. I have been reading about black contributions, religion and how africa developed the world for years but one thing i noticed is that the white man suppresses anything that makes the black looks superior.
Using evil tools of colonialism, hatred, religion and education.
The oloku head discovered(stolen) by leo frobenius in is journal he wrote 1️⃣9️⃣0️⃣7️⃣ but our own history book wrote 1️⃣9️⃣1️⃣0️⃣in ile ife has been studied over n over and nothing beats or come close to it model of bronze casting in the world till date. The white man marvelled cos it predated the romans sculptors work. You will have to read to understand the amount of havoc the white man has done.
Even the bible we read have been tweaked to favour the whites and make the black man look inferior. Have u ever wondered how simon of cyrene the man who helped jesus carry is cross get into the picture if there was no interaction with black people until slave trade era this people still painted the black man like a slave.
Africans where going to america before even Columbus discovered it.
Vasco de gama had to come to african to hire africans who had superior knowledge of the oceans n sea to travel.
How did Columbus discover America: he was trying to find another route to india when he landed in america.
When he got to America in is journal he wrote that he saw two black giants enslaving people in America
2) he never for once got out of is ship
3)he made all is crew swear an oath of secrecy that they got to india but they discovered a new land and any man who said otherwise would be made to pay a heavy fine equivalent to 500dollars now which was an immense amount as at that time and junior crew would be killed n tongues removed
4) he called the blacks red indians cos he couldn’t stand the shame of reporting to the king he didn’t get to india.
The famous walt disney who created mikey mouse modelled it after stories slaves told on the plantation at night.

Even thor was modelled after sango but we here call our own gods demon.
The white have used religion and education to colonize us and make us forget our identity.

Asia was termed africa second civilization.
We will have to read about the black people of asia or african presence in asia.

Magnoliaa:


Lol...why are you like this?? Is this about what Africans invented IN America? Or what Africans invented, GENERALLY? EVERYWHERE? Wherever they find themselves.

: African-Americans are lazy; show me what they invented in America.

*S(h)oko brings proof*

: I mean main things. Major things they invented like ships and airplanes.

*Soko brings proof again.*

: Why did they not invent these things in Africa?

*Soko brings proof yet again of things originating in Africa*

: Noooo. Okay, why are the things invented in America in America??


Ahannnnnn. Your goal-post shifting no dey tire you? E never dooo? Lmaooo.

That one shook me too. Africans invented ships!? Like the Vikings swam to Africa collected the ship specs, built their ships and invaded the west. It's just like saying Mungo Park discovered River Niger.

Shokoloko:


Okay perhaps I did not explain well. In America about 80% of the inventions were from the black people.
We are not inventions from whites in Europe because we are not talking about inventions in the world but about inventions in the US.
And I can tell you that whites in the US hardly invented anything.

The first car was invented by Carl Benz a German. The spaceship was invented by a team of Russians

You would need to do a lot of research.
Bro, I know my stuff: there are very few non-black american inventions.

If Mr Jones learnt physics in school, it is because someone in Africa, taught someone in Europe, who taught someone in The US who taught Jones.

At least the origin of this knowledge goes back to Africa.

Its insulting that you think so low of Africans. and you are projecting this self-hatred to African Americans.

Like I told you the biggest libraries of the ancient world was in Africa. Africa was the center of knowledge

and so you know, silk was not invented by an american but discovered by a Chinese woman.

We are talking about earning MONEY
you are blabbering about love..

Will love feed your family
Will love pay your kids school fees
Will love pay for hospital bills
If your mum needs urgent surgery
Will you use "LOVE" to pay for her surgery??
Why do you spend 18 years of your teenage years in school?
To get a job and earn money
Or
To get a job and earn love??
Imagine working all month and your boss pay you with "love".
U must be really stupid
You go to school to get a job
Then work for somebody s company
It's called scratch my back and I scratch your back.
You make the company rich and the company reward you with "salary" not love

Someone will go to primary,secondary school plus university just to work for another man's company.
Isn't that what everyone in the world is doing? So if you call it slavery then that means all working class people around the world are slaves.
Either u lack reasoning or your just dull

Shokoloko:
That victim mentality is as a result of trauma.

Come to Nigeria, people are sitting down and complaining against the government. Go and get voters cards then? No way, they won"t. Victim mentality

Come to Canada. See the native Americans doing the same thing. They have been broken.

Have you seen a broken person before, who does not believe in themselves. Who does not feel they are worth anything. These people suffered rape (even the men were raped, children were raped), hanging, slavery, for 400 years. It wont be easy for them to recover.


It is not time for us to point accusing fingers at them until we turn Nigeria into Utopia. This same OP opened a different thread gloating about how he wasn't going to pay down the loan he took from a loan company. He is killing someone's business, rendering people jobless and coming here to tell BAs how they don't want to work.

This is gradually turning into a self-hate discuss.

I feel sorry for slave descendants the world over because their plight are unique and the same. Systemic, endemic, and institutionalized battery and racism.

You'd think we African born and bred are better of, but my brother, every indicator points to the contrary.

You won't understand the effects of years of deliberate beat-downs and generational and psychological torture. You won't understand it particularly if you were already prejudicial from the get go.

Check out the black South Africans, the Surinames and most black Carribean enclaves including the Australian aboriginals. Only then will you begin to understand the extent of the damages done to these people's psyche on a generational level and that we the so-called freeborns in our motherland aren't fairing any better than the AAs you condemn here.

What excuses do we have. .who are the leaders we complain about..aren't they from amongst us..what have we done to change the status quo?

kroger:


The truth Hurts . I live in the US and he is absolutely correct. Baby mama littering the entire BA community, how much are condoms for Christ sake i spoke about it on my previous response but you purposely ignore the post. BA always waiting for Government to hand out freebies to live a peasant life. Sex sex and more sex thats the Norm.. Let me ask you a question and i believe some Africans might have also experienced this before, why does BA always ask for gas money all the time from their fellow African colleagues .

The guys are even worse, dont wanna work, dont wanna better themselves, only thing they know is sit at their mamas house and do nothing. No wonder the females drive them away from their apartments cos good sex cant pay the bills i have Seen it happen not once not twice. Thuggery, sagging pants, weed, Bleep, guns is the order of the day. Check out Charlie bo313 youtube channel, i was weeping on what i saw. Young able BA men wasting away.

Every Friday at work the BA are always ready to go, don't wanna work cos they wanna go party and blow away the check and come in on Monday to beg for gas money. finish up your job on Fridays cos u will still meet it back on Monday BA wont listen, monday comes and they aren't able to continue dey job. Typical Akata behavior. My car was hit from the back last friday by a BA. she came down with her long cardi look like nails, with a huge eye lashes the size of a hand fan and starting shouting she is sorry with that annoying voice you all got, It was a minor brush so i had to let it go cos she was the regular Akata . I guarantee you if reverse was the case all hell will let loose, She would have called the cops and create a scene that is typical akata behavior.

The good you do for Akata ends that day, if u expect same favor from them the next day you are on your own . Always hyper, cant cool down to listen to an idea or advice. All the female care about is getting their nails done and hair, you guys can spend you last penny on nails and hair and owe rent . I wonder if its generational curse or something.

Mexicans are known for building houses, land scaping, etc. you see them diligently doing their job and raise a decent family.
Asians are known for having majority of the hotels and gas stations in America, also they are a strong force in the IT sector.
Africans excel in their respective fields, go to any hospital and u would a sizable number of the nurses are Africans,, IT sector we are catching up, CRA, CSM,DOCTORS, Car dealers etc Who sells all the fancy cars to Mayweather? a Nigerian.

What are BA known for, absolutely nothing, but they are known for one thing RANTING.. Always ranting about racism, systematic racism, white priviledge and so on.. Keep on ranting while the Asians, Africans come to America and grab the enormous opportunity and you call us White ass lickers If making money makes me a white ass licker then i will lick more white ass Thats why u all hate Africans, talking about how we come to America and take their jobs, yes we take the jobs cos its vacant, while you all are busy talking about racism we are busy learning and taking the jobs.

I can keep going on and on but no matter how u try to defend the BA it wont change nothing. Kiasa or Khia you can reply everybody on here but the truth still remains the BA needs to step up. Think critically and come up with ideas on how to better themselves. School is free until college, that gives enough room to save for a child college tuition, or there are student loans. Just go to SCHOOL is there anything hard. Is there any white man standing in front of the school gate not allowing BA to study. What really is the problem cos i dont understand. With internet you can also learn lots of skills for cheap..

Replying me and counter my experience will not change the fact that BA needs redemption fast. [/color]
