This is very wrong please
How is it wrong? Tell me black nations that donate to the US, China, Britain etc? Then tell me black nations that receive aids annually from the western world.

It's odd most people complaining about racism are the worst type of tribalist you'd ever encounter.

They shout every time ''Go back to your State''. But when this same people go abroad and are discriminated against, they begin to complain.
This is dumb, most of us in Nigeria and Africa at large are way pass being tribalistic.

And tribalism to some extent it is understandable but after Staying with a particular set of people for while you begin to notice some traits both good and bad from then you later generalize from what you have experience (which could still be wrong but with some there is an atom of truth).

Racism is someone to enslaved you for years and I can go ahead and say still enslaving you just because of the colour of your skin.

If me and you see, from seeing you I can hardly tell where you come from (won't be the first thing to come to my mind self, neither would it be with you). As an educated person even if I tell you my name and where I come from you won't start coming up with reason why I shouldn't be trust.

But a racist sees you from afar and takes a look at the colour of your skin, he sees someone that is beneath him. That's racist, please ever compare it with tribalism.

Remember that Italy was the home of the ancient Roman Empire that today represents the cradle of western civilization, which in company of the Greek Empire, back in ancient times were students of ancient Egypt, called Kemet (Black Land) by the same ancient Greeks and Romans before they invented "Egypt". So, a black person bowing or being at the feet of an Italian or their other caucasian cousins is like a former Master bowing before his former student.

Read what the Frenchman that decoded the Egyptian hieroglyphics wrote in a letter to his brother in the early 19th century, about Race and positions of people of those Races the way the ancient Egyptians saw the world thousands of years ago...

"In a letter written by Chanpollin the Younger, who deciphered hieroglyphics in 1822, to his brother, Champollion-Figeac: "[b]Right in the valley of Biban-el-Moluk, we admired ...... the astonishing freshness of the paintings and fine sculptures on several tombs. I had a copy of people presented on the bas-reliefs. At first I had thought, from copies .... printed in England, that these peoples of different races led by the god Horus holding his shepherd's staff, were indeed nations subject to the rule of the Pharaohs. A study of the legends informed me that this tableu has a more general meaning. It portrayed a third hour of the day ..... Thus we have before our eyes races of man known to the Egyptians and we learn at the same time the great geographical or ethnographical divisions established during that early epoch. Men led by Horus, the shepherd if the peoples, belong to four distinct families. The first, the one closest to the god, has a dark red colour, a well proportioned body, kind face, nose slightly aquiline, long braided hair, and is dressed in white. The legends designate this species as Rot-en-ne-Rome, the race of men par excellence, i.e., the Egyptians. There can be no uncertainty about the racial identity of the man who come next: he belongs to the Black race, designated under the general term Nahasi. The third present a very different aspect; his skin colour borders on yellow or tan; he has a strongly aquiline nose, thick black pointed beard, and wears a short garment of varied colors; these are called Namou. Finally, the last one is what we call flesh-colored, a white skin of the most delicate shade, a nose straight or slightly arched, blue eyes, blond or reddish beard, tall stature and very slender, clad in a hairy ox-skin, a veritable savage tattooed on various parts of his body; he is called Tamhou ..... The variations I observed fully convinced me that they had tried to represent here inhabitants of four corners of the earth, according to the Egyptian system, namely: 1. the inhabitants of Egypt ... 2. the inhabitants of Africa proper, Blacks. 3. Asians; finally (and I am ashamed to say so, since our race is the last and most savage in the series), Europeans who, in those remote epochs, frankly did not cut too fine a figure in the world. In this category, we must include a blonds and white-skinned people living not only in Europe but Asia as well, their starting point. This manner of viewing the tableau is all the more accurate because, on the other tombs, the same generic names reappear, always in the same order. We find Egyptians and Africans represented in the same way..... but the Namou (Asians) the Tanhou (Europeans) present significant and curious variants. Instead of Arab or the Jew, dressed simply and represented on one tomb, Asia's representatives on other tombs (those of Ramses II, etc) are three individuals, tanned complexion, aquiline nose, black eyes, and thick beard, but clad in rare splendor. In one, they are evidently Assyrians ... In the other, are Medes or early inhabitants of some parts of Persia... Thus, Asia was represented indiscriminately by any one of the peoples who inhabited it. The same is true of our good old ancestors, the Tamhou. Their attire is sometimes different; their heads are more or less hairy and adorned with various ornaments; their savage dress varies somewhat in form, but their white complexion, their eyes and beard all preserve the character of a race apart.[/b]"

So, pickup a book of history and discover who you really are. You are the first creation of human on this earth and have been around for tens of thousands of years. You have nurtured this earth as the creator demanded before this new "human" evolved from you to create chaos and disorder as demanded from his master who is the author of lies and deception.

Your logic is very sound I must say ...BUT the presentation didn't come out with the intention. Judging by what people have read and how they responded, its clear that people read it as the balck always bows to the white guy which is complete opposite of what they intend to communicate.

You know communication is not really what you say, Its what the hearer understands :-)

They would have shown the 2 pictures of kneeling + the hug after the kneeling. Then the wordings should have been "everyone has a duty to solidarise with this global movement, Black lives matter"
yea....i get ur point and thats why i blame dt handler for posting such pics without an explanation from his perspective

Trying to justify the trash that happens on NL. Rubbish tribal bigotry is as evil as racism, all the ipob pigs, afonja skull miners, Hausa Fulani jokes and the rest is it that you just blindly glossed over them. Rubbish, this BLM thing is horseshit police brutality is what they are supposed to be protesting against but instead they turned it to a platform for worthless politicians. The sooner we accept the fact that the colour of the skin doesn't matter the better.

dts not fair...as long as its italy dt i kno...he is just wasting his time...dose guys matter no be hear...ask muntari, balotelli, boateng, kessie, moise kean, dm go tell u thier matter say italians dnt gv a fck abt us..
also bt i think that handler made the mistake...wat happened is dt nkolou scored and decided to celebrate with dt "black life matter" sign and other players went away but only his captaim belloti stood mayb waiting for him to gv him a hug...the handler posted the controversial pics and some people are saying nkolou being black is bowing to his white master( belotti) bt i think beloti jus came to support and stood by him wen the others left...it depends on which meaning u read to it...that handler may be fined if not fired..
why not belloti also kneel with nkolouu?

I mean a major achievement since you want them handling big teams. You must show potential before they give you the chance.

Blacks are usually the poorest and least financially bouyant in most societies. If blacks all over the world mostly black Africans can transform their continent into a global force to be reckoned with through a agricultural revolution, wise spending of resources by it's leaders, elimination of nepotism, rapid infrastructural revolution etc, blacks would be respected.

An African kneeling before his Caucasian master.
