1. Greed- after all no one is perfect but the black or African race has taken greed to another scale. I still respect racist white because at least a white racist will always look out for the best interest of his white brother and sister and do not care if other race dies or suffer. We do not look out for each other and the Europeans know this. 2. We spend too much time on entertainment, music, sports and art and less time on science and technology. We do not appreciate our scientists , brilliant minds and geniuses but we praise our musicians, actors, footballers , athletes and models. Technology is a good thing 3. We are hardworking but rely too much on the West and Asian countries for our phones, computers and even car parts. Only a select few african countries can produce |

Shortcut mentality - You met a professor of mechnical engineering and expect him to be a car mechanic. Witchcraft - An advanced form of the first. Here we dont throw our own Josephs in a pit, we kill them outright. Strife - we strife(internal struggle) when we should be advancing our own end of the bar. Just look at musicians,sportsmen, richmen and how they get unfairly compared to one another. Brazen chaos - look at how disorganized yet settled we are. |

1. If a white racist will always look out for the best interest of his white brother, then why are Russians and Ukrainians killing each other? 2. If we don't spend too much time on music, entertainment, sports and art, then what should we do during our spare time? 3. That's because you look down on your own locally made products... If it's not manufactured by a European or an Asian, then it's not good enough. atoliman: |

atoliman:Thirty years war, Seven years war, Napoleonic war, World war 1, World war 2, these are wars between whites. That idea of whites sticking together is never true, today we have Ukraine-Russia war. It was whites who sailed all the way from Europe to colonize us and take our resources, if that is not greed what will you call it. atoliman:Majority of football countries are white, Germany, Argentina, France etc. Messi, C Ronaldo are whites. The west provides most of the movies and music we listen to (Hollywood), white people do not worship scientists more than musicians or footballers, infact scientists are a tiny niche of their population. atoliman:Phone, computer and cars are usually niche globalized businesses A phone can be packaged in Germany, the screen can be made in China, the battery can be from Taiwan, the code can be written in Japan etc. Most African countries simply do not have the branding or necessity necessary for them to be involved in this cycle. Nobody even you would want to purchase a 'made in Nigeria' car over a 'made in Germany' car. |

danvon:On your first opinion You think Africans didn't fight wars because you consider them inconsequential to history right? How did Benin empire form,how did oyo empire,Mali empire ,ghana empire is it not from wars and conquests? All races have fought one territorial Wars or the other |

Op they main reason why Africans don't have technology is because they are mentally lazy,they don't want do the anything that is too mentally tasking making technology can be very mentally draining and blacks are not ready for it, unlike whites who are super curious in nature |

Samantha125:1. Yet Europe support Ukraine including America- imagine they wage war against African countries. A nuclear warhead from one of those european countries can affect live negatively in a bad way in many african countries. My point is we are too passive in science, Asian are not behind- China , Japan , India have weapons 2. Inventing and making creating new items, innovative crafts like bicycle that move on water, . We spend too much time on entertainment. When was the last time a science tv show was promoted like Big brother? Not wrong with entertainment but let focus on science and technology 3. Me ke- i love local made producta- i love wearing native , using local made soap and so forth. I am very pro local but have seen Nigerians who make jest of local made and even go as far as mocking local sandals or shoes. |

danvon:So what if an Europe country want to wage war or send a war head to Nigeria ? How we go survive? Please do not say it is not possible. Niger republic get uranium deposits for nuclear weapon, 2. How come our football league is barely know in Nigeria but arsenal , liverpool , anf 14 th place Manchester United are well known. Mexicans support their local teams very well and Many nationalities. Even Saudi Leagues is getting known. We have acquired taste for foreign things which is very okay but also let patronize our local items. |

Well, I guess we were brainwashed into believing that we're not good enough since we're black. Because even if you look at those black people in diaspora, they're also no different from us Africans even though they'll never admit it. atoliman: |

Samantha125:We are good enough , we just put too much emphasize on musician, footballers, models, boxers ,actors etc and less attention on our scientists, geniuses and so on. If we celebrate our brilliant people like we celebrate Davido, Burna Boy and others. Quality of life will improve in Africa as a whole |
| Re: Things I Dislike About My Black Race; I Wish We Can Do Better by Samantha125(f): 7:39pm On Jan 03, 2025 |
But you can't compare a musician with a scientist... A musician's job is to attract and entertain people while scientists work in the privacy of their laboratories and don't want any public disturbances. atoliman: |

atoliman:They popularized football as a sport, it is their sport. Even the Nigerian footballers all dream and try their best to play in white man's club or country. We have our own traditional sports in Nigeria, instead of trying to emulate a white man's sport we can instead popularize our own. American football is a very popular sport in USA, it was popularized strictly by USA for USA. |

Skooltynz:I was critiquing the OP claim that whites aren't greedy and always stick together. |

danvon:Totally agree with you. |

Of course you can name 5 white scientists easily because of the messed up Western education that we still receive in our schools. The African education system was made to brainwash us from a very young age. atoliman: |

Samantha125:We should be able to know our scientists and brilliant minds like we know our actors actress or musicians, politicans and entertainers We should be able to say this products was invented in Nigeria or Ghana or Kenya and it is used worldwide. E .g airplane was invented by Americans, numbers come from Arabs, e.t.c We have these people here in Nigeria and many african countries but they seriously ignored and this is very poor on the black race generally. Then some go to Europe or Oversea and they get recongize. Then these European countries take their invention and use it for their own benefits. |

Skooltynz:This is very shallow, baseless and stupid. You don't go about generalizing over an entire race of people U unintelligent dumb fvck! That U are lazy and mentally slow doesn't mean the rest of us are. The black race has done more than enough but U ignorant mofos don't know cos U don't read broad. Africans are behind technologically due to sociopolitical/ economic reasons and nothing to do with the race and it's the reason U see most Africans flourishing once they get the chance in a different favourable environment. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African-American_inventors_and_scientists |

dkidd:In which our race can do to enable black inventors or scientists flourish. Why must a black Scientist or inventor go oversea to get his or her ideas become a reality or a finished products or an invention. Can any african government even set a special committee to support scientists? |

Most Africans don't know their history and that is why they are ashamed. What they know about themselves is the hate that has been given to them by others as their own history. It is unfortunate but that's what it is. It is why today even abroad, they prefer to celebrate your entertainers and sportsmen than to promote your thinkers so they give you the impression that you are only good for fun. You don't know your contributions because it has been hidden from you. If they tell you Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin was a Black man, you will never believe it. There are so many inventions by the blacks that have either been hidden or whitewashed to make you subservient in your thinking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e53osbQJz1c When I was in school, I was very proud of the pre-colonial leaders from Nigeria. I was inspired by their stories for freedom and the visions they had for Nigeria and Africa. So when people say we cannot lead, they don't understand history. These men wanted their people to be liberated. Go read the story of Fela, when he went to UK then came back home and joined alliances with the Americans who wanted liberation in the 70s. These guys realised that the African mind had been enslaved and an enslaved mind can never see good when he has done so much in this world. Go to the museums in America and Europe, ask yourself why African items are there if they have no value. Don't be fooled ![]()
