ShyM-X:
Black people will forever be slaves.

Chima_Adeoye: He deserves to be a slave for 1 million years until he learns to stop killing and pulling down each other.

Chima_Adeoye: Only the disastrously naive or insane will still go around supporting anyone because they are BLACK!

ckkris: A tree remains a tree
Though it sheds its leaves when winter comes,
So a slave remains a slave,
though he can think independently.

4Willywilly: Not every black man is a Slaves but i have noticed something in Nigeria, majority of Yorubas possess that black Slave Mentality, they don't like the progress of other Black, Why?

Vado: A truckload of crap.

ekt_bear: if you say so

thoth: Have anyone ever tried thinking how this generation of blacks can be converted back to Africanism(afrian philosophial beliefs,religion,culture,outlook and development) ?

I had spent many years thinking through this with friends whom share same concerns.

The policies and norms of the international laws makes it impossible to do so, even it makes it compulsory that those cultures which we cherish must be destroyed and replaced with alien ones. With that the true Africanist is already an outcast by definition, a miscreant by disposition and an entity not worthy of companionship.

In this new norm which is increasingly gaining foothold in Africans new generation the most insidious tool with which it destroys all opposition is INDIVIDUALISM, many would neglect this by-product of unencumbered capitalism and some would even praise it. however i will like to ask most of you how many times you have came across this response while trying to talk sense to some people. "it is his life, you have no business in it" mostly in matters which affects us all as a society.

well without going too deep into the whole i will share my conclusion with you..Africanism can only be achieved through extreme violence, no other way, Yes yes i know it sounds barbaric and politically incorrect as some may choose to say. but no society has ever witnessed an overhaul to its basic tenets without violence and by that i mean extreme violence.
think of how it came and you will see how to make it go. china was able to infuse and maintain its unique culture, atheism and strong nationalism with it, Russia had it,USA,Britain,France and the whole of the middle east.

Now how many of us are not repulsed by the very thought of violence and the absence of freedom(or introduction of a new form of freedom) which will come after it ?

birdman: Very thoughtful post. However, I think violence is not what is needed. In fact, violence would help the stronger nation, because they can use it as an excuse to wipe you out for good. Witness China, which didnt assert itself physically until it knew it was ready. Or Brazil, that used a slow grassroots movement to build true independence.

The truth is that even if a violent conflict ended in Africa's favor, it still wouldn't help us. Lets be honest - most of our tears are crocodile tears. I cant tell you how many times I've seen Africans bemoan their lowly status, but then you watch their habits and you realize they really dont want change. Or even freedom. They just want comfort.

Any victory we win by violence will be quickly lost by our habits. There is no other option than the slow but steady grassroots learning, making the truth available to people, and letting that seed grow with time. When truth aligns our habits, change is inevitable.

Rossikk: Look Horus, you know you and I see eye to eye on almost everything. You see these days, I tend to see these types of threads as the very confirmation by the starters of their own impotence. The poster is part of the problem, as I see it. As are many of the most virulent and negativist critics of 'black people', who by their virulence and blanket condemnation of blacks, exhibit THEIR own 'self hate' and ignorance.

I have long come to realise that empty vessels make the most noise.

I believe that the BEST WAY to show one's Africanness or one's zeal to reconnect with our African personality, or promote an African renaissance is to exemplify it in one's own personal life.

For instance I can bet you the poster of this thread and/or many of his supporters are either christians or muslims.

See right there you have a problem.

You cannot have a christian or muslim on this thread attacking ''black people'' when by their very own acts of renouncing African philosophies, and adopting foreign myths, they have sold themselves down the river long before anyone else.

Or what about those who build houses? How many of their houses show any form of African design or aesthetic conceptualisation? Few if any!

Yet those same people are here too, attacking ''black people'' for ''selling out''.

I could go on and on..

That is why I sniff at all these 'conscious' threads these days. As you point a finger at other 'black people', four fingers point straight back at your forehead.

manmustwac: Black people are totally messed up. Take our visionless leaders for example they are all like gorillas when u compare them to our western counterparts
