Nigerians security is a disgrace to the world but you're heavily guarded by same security. Over 50 army, navy, dss, police, nscdc guard you and your family daily. You are secured but your people are not secured. You operate from your secured location in Lagos to taraba where you come from. Since you're the high and mighty, why not speak to the presidency and stop all these social media hoha. It's well with my dear country, Nigeria. Nigeria will not die but live

DON’T MIND THE LOOTER.

DANJUMA, THIEF AND CRIMINAL LOOTER, SHUT UP YOUR DIRTY MOUTH AND STOP BAD MOUTHING AND DE-MARKETING THE COUNTRY.

IN AMERICA WHERE YOU OWN MANSIONS FROM YOUR STOLEN MONEY, THERE ARE OVER 30,000 GUN CASUALTIES PER ANNUM, 70,000 DRUG OVERDOSE DEATHS, MASS SHOOTINGS, DRIVE-BY SHOOTINGS, GANG WARFARE, DRUG WARS.

IN FACT IN LOS ANGELES YOU WILL BE WALKING AROUND AND YOU WILL SEE DRAWINGS AND SIGNS ON THE WALLS THAT YOU WILL THINK ARE GRAFFITI ART AND DECORATION, IF YOU ARE A VISITOR, NOT KNOWING THAT THEY ARE SIGNS INDICATING WHICH GANG OWNS THAT PART OF THE CITY.

GO TO ANY BIG AMERICAN CITY AND WATCH THEIR DAILY NEWS ON TELLY.

ALL YOU WILL SEE IS CASUALTIES FROM THE DAY'S SHOOTINGS.

BUT YOU WILL NEVER SEE AMERICAN LEADERS TRASHING THEIR COUNTRY AND CALLING IT ''THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WORLD'', OR SAYING THAT ''NOBODY WANTS TO COME TO AMERICA BECAUSE WE ARE ALL BUTCHERING OURSELVES''.

JUST SHUT YOUR FILTHY MOUTH AND PROFER SUGGESTIONS IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER INSTEAD OF RUNNING DOWN THE COUNTRY THAT YOU HELPED TO LOOT.

FOR ALL WE KNOW, THE NEW GOVT HAS REFUSED YOU OIL BLOCKS OR CONTRACTS, AND NOW YOU HAVE TURNED 'OBIDIENT' TO START TRASHING THE COUNTRY.

All Cleopatra movie has always depicted her as white.

The only one that depicted her as black- docudrama by Jada Pickett led to an uproar on social media.

If fans want Romeo and Juliet as whites, then they should direct their grievance to the appropriate quarter- movie producer.

I don't even get U, are U saying it's ok to insult and make racist remarks against black actors because they played a role they were given.

Are U even ok? If they want them to remain whites, the right way is to attack the actors...how does that even change anything.

Bro, once these people turn slaves, they will find every and every way to justify their sense of inferiority.

Do you know what would have happened if this story was the exact reverse, ie a white woman played Queen Amina of Zaria or something, and blacks had started protesting against that?

These same people here would have attacked the BLACKS complaining and accused them of being too 'sensitive'', always focusing on race, skin colour etc etc.

Think about it. You know it's true.

They're wired to self-hate.

Programmed like a clock.

It doesn't matter how the story goes, they will ALWAYS be against the black side.

And these are so-called blacks. ''Africans''.

They are a real disgrace.

Yes you're right. White people have been playing ancient Egyptians but if you look closer. They made an effort, they darkened their skin slightly to look tanned.

You're an embarrassment. Another House Negro. Show us the ''skin darkening''. This is the movie Ten Commandments.

And ancient Egypt wasn't just black or white, it was a mixture of different races.

SHUT UP THERE. THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS WERE BLACK AFRICANS, AS PROVEN IN THIS EPIC VIDEO THAT IS CRAMMED WITH ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO MAKE YOUR HEAD SPIN.

Thanks bro.

By the way, you mentioned that we exported textiles and soap to Europe 400 years ago. You are absolutely correct. In fact Portugal banned the importation of Nigerian manufactured soap in the mid 1800s in order to boost their fledgling soap making industry.

Another thing we manufactured en masse was GLASS.

According to the Independent Newspaper, UK

Glass Was Made in Africa Centuries before Arrival of Europeans, Says New Evidence

-Chemical analysis of beads found at a site in Nigeria reveals a composition entirely unique to the region

Josh Gabbatiss
Science Correspondent




“The Igbo Olokun excavations have provided that evidence”.

Of the 12,000 glass beads found at the site, the researchers analysed 52 and found none matched the composition of glass produced anywhere else on Earth.

Two groups of glass were found at Igbo Olokun, one with high levels of lime and alumina, and one with low levels of lime and high levels of alumina.

Both were identified as unique to the region, and Dr Babalola and his team noted their composition reflected the local geology and raw materials that were available.

Notably, the glass found at Igbo Olokun was also dated to between the 1100s and 1500s, centuries before Europeans established trade networks in West Africa.

“We are now confident beyond reasonable doubt that both the high lime-high alumina and low lime, high alumina groups of glass represent a glass produced in early Ile-Ife using local recipes, raw materials and technology,” wrote the researchers in their paper documenting the findings.

Their results are published in the Journal of Archaeological Science.

The occurrence of similar beads in other West African societies, as revealed by other archaeological excavations, indicated the glass produced at Igbo Olokun was part of a wider regional trading network.

Regarding the greatness of Benin, there is no better proponent of this than the people who destroyed the city - the British:


Benin City, The Mighty Medieval Capital Now Lost Without Trace


Guardian Newspaper, UK

https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/mar/18/story-of-cities-5-benin-city-edo-nigeria-mighty-medieval-capital-lost-without-trace


With its mathematical layout and earthworks longer than the Great Wall of China, Benin City was one of the best planned cities in the world when London was a place of ‘thievery and murder’. So why is nothing left?


This is the story of a lost medieval city you’ve probably never heard about. Benin City, originally known as Edo, was once the capital of a pre-colonial African empire located in what is now southern Nigeria. The Benin empire was one of the oldest and most highly developed states in west Africa, dating back to the 11th century.

The Guinness Book of Records (1974 edition) described the walls of Benin City and its surrounding kingdom as the world’s largest earthworks carried out prior to the mechanical era. According to estimates by the New Scientist’s Fred Pearce, Benin City’s walls were at one point “four times longer than the Great Wall of China, and consumed a hundred times more material than the Great Pyramid of Cheops [in Egypt]”.

Situated on a plain, Benin City was enclosed by massive walls in the south and deep ditches in the north. Beyond the city walls, numerous further walls were erected that separated the surroundings of the capital into around 500 distinct villages.

Pearce writes that these walls “extended for some 16,000 km in all, in a mosaic of more than 500 interconnected settlement boundaries. They covered 6,500 sq km and were all dug by the Edo people … They took an estimated 150 million hours of digging to construct, and are perhaps the largest single archaeological phenomenon on the planet”.

Barely any trace of these walls exist today.

Benin City was also one of the first cities to have a semblance of street lighting. Huge metal lamps, many feet high, were built and placed around the city, especially near the king’s palace. Fuelled by palm oil, their burning wicks were lit at night to provide illumination for traffic to and from the palace.

When the Portuguese first “discovered” the city in 1485, they were stunned to find this vast kingdom made of hundreds of interlocked cities and villages in the middle of the African jungle. They called it the “Great City of Benin”, at a time when there were hardly any other places in Africa the Europeans acknowledged as a city. Indeed, they classified Benin City as one of the most beautiful and best planned cities in the world.

In 1691, the Portuguese ship captain Lourenco Pinto observed: “Great Benin, where the king resides, is larger than Lisbon; all the streets run straight and as far as the eye can see. The houses are large, especially that of the king, which is richly decorated and has fine columns. The city is wealthy and industrious. It is so well governed that theft is unknown and the people live in such security that they have no doors to their houses.”

In contrast, London at the same time is described by Bruce Holsinger, professor of English at the University of Virginia, as being a city of “thievery, prostitution, murder, bribery and a thriving black market made the medieval city ripe for exploitation by those with a skill for the quick blade or picking a pocket”.

African fractals

Benin City’s planning and design was done according to careful rules of symmetry, proportionality and repetition now known as fractal design. The mathematician Ron Eglash, author of African Fractals – which examines the patterns underpinning architecture, art and design in many parts of Africa – notes that the city and its surrounding villages were purposely laid out to form perfect fractals, with similar shapes repeated in the rooms of each house, and the house itself, and the clusters of houses in the village in mathematically predictable patterns.

As he puts it: “When Europeans first came to Africa, they considered the architecture very disorganised and thus primitive. It never occurred to them that the Africans might have been using a form of mathematics that they hadn’t even discovered yet.”


At the centre of the city stood the king’s court, from which extended 30 very straight, broad streets, each about 120-ft wide. These main streets, which ran at right angles to each other, had underground drainage made of a sunken impluvium with an outlet to carry away storm water. Many narrower side and intersecting streets extended off them. In the middle of the streets were turf on which animals fed.

“Houses are built alongside the streets in good order, the one close to the other,” writes the 17th-century Dutch visitor Olfert Dapper. “Adorned with gables and steps … they are usually broad with long galleries inside, especially so in the case of the houses of the nobility, and divided into many rooms which are separated by walls made of red clay, very well erected.”

Dapper adds that wealthy residents kept these walls “as shiny and smooth by washing and rubbing as any wall in Holland can be made with chalk, and they are like mirrors. The upper storeys are made of the same sort of clay. Moreover, every house is provided with a well for the supply of fresh water”.

Family houses were divided into three sections: the central part was the husband’s quarters, looking towards the road; to the left the wives’ quarters (oderie), and to the right the young men’s quarters (yekogbe).

Daily street life in Benin City might have consisted of large crowds going though even larger streets, with people colourfully dressed – some in white, others in yellow, blue or green – and the city captains acting as judges to resolve lawsuits, moderating debates in the numerous galleries, and arbitrating petty conflicts in the markets.

The early foreign explorers’ descriptions of Benin City portrayed it as a place free of crime and hunger, with large streets and houses kept clean; a city filled with courteous, honest people, and run by a centralised and highly sophisticated bureaucracy.

https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/mar/18/story-of-cities-5-benin-city-edo-nigeria-mighty-medieval-capital-lost-without-trace

Regarding architecture, of which this mo.ro.n says we ''only had mud huts'', Let's start off with Benin.

In the 15th century, Benin city was a city of multi-storeyed public buildings and monuments..

This is a drawing of Benin City in 1847 by the English visitor, Mary Evans.

This was 50 years before it was invaded by the British.



According to scholars,

''At the end of the 13th century, a European traveler encountered the great metropolis of Benin in West Africa (present Nigeria, Edo State), writing: “The town seems to be very great. When you enter into it, you go into a great broad street...which seems to be seven or eight times broader than the Warmoes street in Amsterdam…The King's palace is a collection of buildings which occupy as much space as the town of Harlem, and which is enclosed with walls. There are numerous apartments for the Prince`s ministers and fine galleries, most of which are as big as those on the Exchange at Amsterdam. They are supported by wooden pillars encased with copper, where their victories are depicted, and which are carefully kept very clean. The town is composed of thirty main streets, very straight and 120 feet wide, apart from an infinity of small intersecting streets. The houses are close to one another, arranged in good order. These people are in no way inferior to the Dutch as regards cleanliness; they wash and scrub their houses so well that they are polished and shining like a looking glass.” (Source: Walter Rodney, ‘How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, pg. 69)

The medieval Nigerian city of Benin was built to “a scale comparable with the Great Wall of China”. There was a vast system of defensive walling totalling 10,000 miles in all. Even before the full extent of the city walling had become apparent the Guinness Book of Records carried an entry in the 1974 edition that described the city as: “The largest earthworks in the world carried out prior to the mechanical era.”

Sadly, in 1897, Benin City was destroyed by British forces under Admiral Harry Rawson. The city was looted, blown up and burnt to the ground. A collection of the famous Benin Bronzes are now in the British Museum in London. Part of the 700 stolen bronzes by the British troops were sold back to Nigeria in 1972.

Here is another account of the great Benin City regarding the city walls “They extend for some 16 000 kilometres in all, in a mosaic of more than 500 interconnected settlement boundaries. They cover 6500 square kilometres and were all dug by the Edo people. In all, they are four times longer than the Great Wall of China, and consumed a hundred times more material than the Great Pyramid of Cheops. They took an estimated 150 million hours ..to construct, and are perhaps the largest single archaeological phenomenon on the planet.” - Source: Wikipedia, Architecture of Africa.” Fred Pearce the New Scientist 11/09/99.

The Romans introduced Christianity to Whites. Like the Romans aren't white themselves.

The middles eaterners aren't white, they are coloured. Lolz.

FYI, there are 3 primary classes of Race. Caucasoid aka white, Negroid aka Blacks and Mongoloid aka Yellow people. Every thing else is a variation of the 3.

Christianity belongs to Africa yet your ancestors were worshipping Amadioha and they were living in mud houses and wearing loin clothes when the whites met them in Africa. No civilisation, no school.system. They have no invention for themselves. They know next to nothing about science neither nor technology. You saw in the bible that Paul was a lawyer. If Africans were the ones in the bible with such advanced society in the time of Jesus, why was your village a jungle in 1880.

Abeg. I'm done with this conversation cos its beginning to piss me off.

Let me educate you ANIMAL.

Today, you will learn that AFRICA is the cradle of world civilization, and that without AFRICAN INGENUITY, the entire world would still be in the STONE AGE today.


12 Amazing African Inventions That Changed The World



1 Speech

The first words by humans were spoken by Africans.

''Using statistical methods to estimate the time required to achieve the current spread and diversity in modern languages today, Johanna Nichols — a linguist at the University of California, Berkeley — argues that vocal language must have arisen in our species at least 100,000 years ago. Using phonemic diversity, a more recent analysis offers directly linguistic support for a similar date. Estimates of this kind are independently supported by genetic, archaeological, palaeontological and much other evidence suggesting that language probably emerged somewhere in sub-Saharan Africa during the Middle Stone Age, roughly contemporaneous with the speciation of Homo sapiens.''


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_language




2 Writing


In 1999, Archaeology Magazine reported that the earliest Egyptian hieroglyphs date back to 3400 BCE which "...challenge the commonly held belief that early logographs, pictographic symbols representing a specific place, object, or quantity, first evolved into more complex phonetic symbols in Mesopotamia."

Who were these original Egyptians?

The Greek historian Herodotus.. described the Colchians of the Black Sea shores as "Egyptians by race" and pointed out they had "black skins and kinky hair."

Apollodorus, the Greek philosopher, described Egypt as "the country of the black-footed ones" and the Latin historian Ammianus Marcellinus said "the men of Egypt are mostly brown or black with a skinny desiccated look."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/specials/1624_story_of_africa/page88.shtml

In his book 'Egypt', British scholar Sir E.A. Wallis Budge says: "The prehistoric native of Egypt, both in the old and in the new Stone Ages, was African and there is every reason for saying that the earliest settlers came from the South." He further states: "There are many things in the manners and customs and religions of the historic Egyptians that suggests that the original home of their prehistoric ancestors was in a country in the neighborhood of Uganda and Punt [present day Somalia]."

''Greek historian Diodorus Siculus devoted an entire chapter of his world history, the Bibliotheke Historica, or Library of History (Book 3), to the Kushites ["Aithiopians"] of Meroe. Here he repeats the story of their great piety, their high favor with the gods, and adds the fascinating legend that they were.. the founders of Egyptian civilization, invented writing, and had given the Egyptians their religion and culture.''

(1st century B.C., Diodorus Siculus of Sicily, Greek historian and contemporary of Caesar Augustus, Universal History Book III. 2. 4-3. 3)

http://wysinger.homestead.com/blackegypt101.html

To summarise:

"Ancient Egypt was a Negro civilisation. The history of Black Africa will remain suspended in the air and cannot be written correctly until African historians connect it with the history of Egypt. The African historian who evades the problem of Egypt is neither modest nor objective nor unruffled. He is ignorant, cowardly and neurotic. The ancient Egyptians were Negroes. The moral fruit of their civilisation is to be counted among the assets of the Black world."

- Cheikh Anta Diop, The African Origin of Civilisation.



3 Medicine

''The earliest known surgery was performed in Egypt around 2750 BC.... The Ebers papyrus (1550 BC) is full of incantations and foul applications meant to turn away disease-causing demons, and also includes 877 prescriptions. It may also contain the earliest documented awareness of tumors..

Homer (800 BC) remarked in the Odyssey: "In Egypt, the men are more skilled in medicine than any of human kind" and "the Egyptians were skilled in medicine more than any other art". The Greek historian Herodotus visited Egypt around 440 BC and wrote extensively of his observations of their medicinal practices. Pliny the Elder also wrote favourably of them in historical review. Hippocrates (the 'father of medicine'), Herophilos, Erasistratus and later Galen studied at the temple of Amenhotep, and acknowledged the contribution of ancient Egyptian medicine to Greek medicine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_medicine



4 Architecture

The African empire of Egypt developed a vast array of diverse structures and great architectural monuments along the Nile, among the largest and most famous of which are the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Great Sphinx of Giza

The pyramids, which were built in the Fourth Dynasty, testify to the power of the pharaonic religion and state. They were built to serve both as grave sites and also as a way to make their names last forever. The size and simple design show the high skill level of Egyptian design and engineering on a large scale. The Great Pyramid of Giza, which was probably completed c. 2580 BC, is the oldest and largest of the pyramids, and is the only surviving monument of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The pyramid of Khafre is believed to have been completed around 2532 BC, at the end of Khafre's reign.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_architecture



5 Mathematics

The invention of mathematics is placed firmly in African PRE-HISTORY.

''The oldest known possibly mathematical object is the Lebombo bone, discovered in the Lebombo mountains of Swaziland and dated to approximately 35,000 BC. It consists of 29 distinct notches cut into a baboon's fibula. Also prehistoric artifacts discovered in Africa and France, dated between 35,000 and 20,000 years old [respectively], suggest early attempts to quantify time.

The Ishango bone, found near the headwaters of the Nile river (northeastern Congo), may be as much as 20,000 years old and consists of a series of tally marks carved in three columns running the length of the bone. Common interpretations are that the Ishango bone shows either the earliest known demonstration of sequences of prime numbers or a six month lunar calendar.

Also, Predynastic Egyptians of the 5th millennium BC pictorially represented geometric designs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_mathematics#Prehistoric_mathematics

''Numeral systems have been many and diverse, with the first known written numerals created by Egyptians in Middle Kingdom texts such as the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus.

The earliest uses of mathematics were in trading, land measurement, painting and weaving patterns and the recording of time. More complex mathematics did not appear until around 3000 BC, when the Egyptians and Babylonians began using arithmetic, algebra and geometry for taxation and other financial calculations, for building and construction, and for astronomy''

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics



6 Mining of minerals

The oldest known mine on archaeological record is the "Lion Cave" in Swaziland, which radiocarbon dating shows to be about 43,000 years old. Much later on, the Africans of Egypt mined malachite....Quarries for turquoise and copper were also found at "Wadi Hamamat, Tura, Aswan and various other Nubian sites"..The gold mines of Nubia were among the largest and most extensive in the world, and are described by the Greek author Diodorus Siculus. He mentions that fire-setting was one method used to break down the hard rock holding the gold. One of the complexes is shown in one of earliest known maps. They crushed the ore and ground it to a fine powder before washing the powder for the gold dust.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining#Prehistoric_mining



7 Iron Smelting

Iron smelting is a form of extractive metallurgy; its main use is to produce a metal from its ore. This includes production of silver, iron, copper and other base metals from their ores. Smelting uses heat and a chemical reducing agent to decompose the ore, driving off other elements as gasses or slag and leaving just the metal behind.

Early iron smelting:

''Where and how iron smelting was discovered is widely debated, and remains uncertain due to the significant lack of production finds.. [but] there is a further possibility of iron smelting and working in West Africa by 1200 BC. In addition, very early instances of carbon steel were found to be in production around 2000 years before the present in northwest Tanzania, based on complex preheating principles. These discoveries are significant for the history of metallurgy.''

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smelting


8 Religion

Greek historian Diodorus Siculus. From his own statements we learn that he traveled in Egypt around 60 BC. His travels in Egypt probably took him as far south as the first Cataract. He wrote about the black races of inner Africa whom he called ''Ethiopians'', dwelling south of Egypt.

"They further write that it was among them that people were first taught to honor the gods and offer sacrifices and arrange processions and festivals and perform other things by which people honor the divine. For this reason their piety is famous among all men, and the sacrifices among the Ethiopians are believed to be particularly pleasing to the divinity."


9 Laws

Stephanus of Byzantium, who is said to represent the opinions of the most ancient Greeks, says:

"Ethiopia was the first established country on the earth, and the Ethiopians were the first who introduced the worship of the Gods and who established laws."

Quoted by John D. Baldwin, Prehistoric Nations, p. 62.



10 International Trade


In 1825, Arnold Hermann Heeren (1760-1842), Professor of History and Politics in the University of Gottengen and one of the ablest of the early exponents of the economic interpretation of history, published, in the fourth and revised edition of his great work Ideen Uber Die Politik, Den Verkehr Und Den Handel Der Vornehmsten Volker Der Alten Weld, a lengthy essay on the history, culture, and commerce of the ancient Ethiopians, which had profound influence on contemporary writers in the conclusion that it was among these ancient Black people of Africa and Asia that international trade was first developed.

He wrote that as a by-product of these international contacts there was an exchange of ideas and cultural practices that laid the foundations of the earliest civilizations of the ancient world. Heeren in his researches says:

"From the remotest times to the present, the Ethiopians (ancient name for blacks south of the Sahara) have been one of the most celebrated, and yet the most mysterious of nations. In the earliest traditions of nearly all the..civilized nations of antiquity, the name of this distant people is found.

..The annals of the Egyptian priests are full of them, and the nations of inner Asia, on the Euphrates and Tigris, have interwoven the fictions of the Ethiopians with their traditions of the wars and conquests of their heroes; and, at a period equally remote, they glimmer in Greek mythology. When the Greeks scarcely knew Italy and Sicily by name, the Ethiopians were celebrated in the verses of their poets, and when the faint gleam of tradition and fable gives way to the clear light of history, the lustre of the Ethiopians is not diminished. They still continue to be the objects of curiosity and admiration, and the pen of clear-sighted, cautious historians places them in the highest rank of knowledge and civilization."

11 Philosophy

Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems, such as those connected with reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. Philosophy is distinguished from other ways of addressing such problems by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on rational argument.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy#Ancient_philosophy

Philosophy in Africa has a rich and varied history, dating from pre-dynastic Egypt, continuing through the birth of Christianity and Islam. Arguably central to the ancients was the conception of "ma'at", which roughly translated refers to "justice", "truth", or simply "that which is right". One of the earliest works of political philosophy was the Maxims of Ptah-Hotep, which were taught to Egyptian schoolboys for centuries...Ancient Egyptian philosophers made extremely important contributions to Hellenistic philosophy, Christian philosophy, and Islamic philosophy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_philosophy

''Ancient Egyptian philosophy has been credited by the ancient Greeks as being the beginning of philosophy''.

12 Art

The oldest art objects in the world—a series of tiny, drilled snail shells about 75,000 years old—were discovered in a South African cave.

Well... I don't feel inferior to any white person. I do remote jobs in which I communicate with white people regularly. I even lecture some of them on certain things. I don't see it as a big deal. Truly in time past, they were really horrible people and they did nasty things to our forefathers. It's painful but at the end of the day, there's nothing you can do. A lot of them have acknowledged the fact over the years. We have moved on from that era and I chose not to revisit such issues. Black Americans have actually become the toxic ones over the years. They feel entitled to everything in the U.S now without working their way to the top unlike other races. I don't want to be part of such

You are a very stupid pig to speak that way about the African-Americans, without whom you wouldn't get ANY JOB in America today, remote or otherwise.

Brainwashed to self-hate pig you.

Go and study slavery, segregation, and the civil rights movement. Because I know you know NOTHING about it just like you know NOTHING about your own African history.

They are still suffering institutional effects of that 400 year period of brutal misery which MUST and WILL be addressed, from poor schools to housing discrimination, to job discrimination to police brutality and racism.

If African Americans had your disgusting white worshiping slave mentality, they would still be in shackles today, and you, dumbo, would have ZERO access to anything in America, including your fcking remote job.

THEY ARE ENTITLED TO A LOT MORE THAN THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN, CONSIDERING THAT EVERYONE GOT RICH OFF THEIR LABOUR EXCEPT THEM, CONSIDERING IT WAS THEM THAT BUILT THAT COUNTRY, AND GOT PAID NOTHING.

THEY WILL GET REPARATIONS AS WELL, AND THEY FULLY DESERVE IT.

Frigging SELLOUT Uncle Tom House Negro you.

You've read it too! The keys to the colors. I've got a copy in my study. Funny story, I first read my mother's copy at about 14 years old and then I bought my own copy a few years ago

It's an excellent work and one hell of an eye opener. Ideally it should be compulsory reading in every African school, so that Africans can know what they are up against in relation to the imperialists.

You are a cretin who knows absolutely nothing, so get lost.

Your head is just an empty pot to receive instructions from Europeans on how to think and what to think.

So you have nothing to offer but slavery to whites, so take a hike.

Tamires:

You are obviously the mumu trying to africanize everything
Does the rubbish you wrote up there even make sense to you?
Imagine a mumu like u saying Shakespeare was black
Na inferiority complex dey worry
What a dummy!

Shut your dirty lips there!

What do you know about history?

What do you know about western whitewashing of history?

Have you any idea how comprehensive it was?

JUST STFU, because you know NOTHING. You have researched NOTHING.

It goes far deeper than you can ever imagine in your colonised head.

Start with the Jesus and the Hebrews whitewash exposed by Putin.

Has your thick slave skull addressed that one?

Fcking CRETIN.

Bodyguard for ‘white man’.

Tamires:

You have victim mentality, black people be playing victim everytime
Always blaming white people for all the terrible things that happens you
Mumu black man
Is it not your fellow black man that's always shouting all Nigerian girls are useless, black women are ugly
Abeg rest joor
The average white man is better than you

Slave with no brain, spouting superstition-based colour discrimination.

I have worked, lived and studied among white people in their country for DECADES, and majority of them are THICK and know next to nothing about anything.

So you can take your slave mentality and stick up your stinky butthole.

Blasted low IQ House Negro Coconut Coon.

Tamires:

So everyone is black now huh?

Not my fault you are dullard who can’t conduct basic research.

Mr “huh”.

Tamires:

Black people are also very wicked towards themselves
I honestly don't blame white people

Slave dunce.

Whites do terrible things to each other on a daily basis, from murder to child rape, incest and paedophilia.

White priests routinely rape white children including little boys.

So should blacks treat them badly because of that?

westside365:



Bro you are right. They painted Jesus white and the angels just to oppress the black race.

And to colonise their minds and mindset.

It was a psychological ploy. If you close your eyes and envision God, you will see a white man sitting on a throne in heaven, the father of the white man who is your “personal saviour and lord” or whatever they call him.

So of course you will see the white man as God’s manifestation on Earth, and feel inferior to him. The white man reinforced this by painting Satan black or dark red etc.

The trick worked spectacularly well for them. Today they see their traditional spirituality as satanic and evil, and everything good is now white in their colonised senses.

Anashe:
Just another day of racial discrimination. Hopefully, she doesn't let it get to her. They say they hate our skin colour yet they sun bathe for hours and use fake tan. They spend thousands of dollars trying to have our natural lips and buttocks. We're the superior ones

Ah… YOU MUST HAVE READ ‘THE ISIS PAPERS’ By DR FRANCES CRESS WELSING.

She wrote:

“White people hate black people.
The reason white people hate black people is because white people are not black.
If you know this about white people, you need know little else.
If you do not know this about white people, everything else you know about them will only confuse you”.

- The Isis Papers

Iceberg3:
Some of these blacks should go and totaa,sit down,abeg...which one is black Juliet again,nah...we read Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and we know how far.....it's just like all those rubbish black Spiderman and superman!
Then imagine black incredible Hulk!
Kilode.
The worst of all,they wanted the Idris Alba black dude for James Bond!!! Hhaa!

SELF HATER.

ADMIT YOUR REAL PROBLEM: YOU FEEL INFERIOR TO SO-CALLED WHITE PEOPLE.

NO, YOU ARE NOT INFERIOR TO THEM.

OKAY?

YOU CAN PLAY THEIR ROLE IN MOVIES JUST AS THEY HAVE BEEN PLAYING YOURS WHILE YOU KEPT SILENT.

OKAY?

IT’S NO BIG DEAL.

YOU NEED THERAPY.

SIRTee15:


Don't mind all these woke forming blacks with poor sense of history.
Hollywood has been portraying Jesus and ancient Israelites as whites when we know they were coloured people.

Ancient Egyptians were coloured blacks with skin tone close to present day Ethiopians.
Yet all ancient Egypt movies in Hollywood always have European white characters.

And Romeo and juliet is fictional. Its played all over the world by different ethnicity. So what the fuse?
And some foolish naive blacks are supporting such racist attack.

THEY HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED AND NEED MAJOR THERAPY, or even Divine Intervention, so they stop feeling so worthless and inferior.

IT IS SO DISGUSTING TO BEHOLD.

Imagine a whole man created by God proudly and stubbornly proclaiming his own inferiority?

Is that not the peak of mental disorder, and a clear sign of brainwashing?

Azazyel:




Na your papa be demon. Keep crying. Your tears are so sweet. Your country is suffering from tribalism issues and you are facing the whites who are light years ahead of us when it comes to development. Your werey forefathers worshipped dead gods that couldn't save them from slavery and were killing twins until a white woman came and saved African twins. Your ancestors sold fellow Africans cos of mirror your ancestors would not have gotten cure for malaria if not for the same white people who use their brains when Africans are using witchcraft to bring each other down. Your politicians would run abroad and come back then still leave you people in darkness. Keep fighting the whites that don't give a hoot about you instead of holding your leaders to ransom. Cry baby...

OH PLEASE TAKE YOUR SLAVE TALK OUT OF HERE.

LOOK AT THE REPULSIVE, IGNORANT SLAVE GARBAGE HE IS TYPING.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR HISTORY APART FROM WHAT COLONIALISTS BRAINWASHED YOU TO THINK?

HAVE YOU EVER READ A BOOK ON AFRICAN HISTORY IN YOUR ENTIRE WORTHLESS LIFE?

YOU ARE JUST AN EMPTY HEAD BRAINWASHED BY COLONIALISTS TO FEEL INFERIOR TO THEM.

THAT’S WHY YOU SEE YOURSELF AS NOTHING.

GO PICK UP A BOOK ON AFRICAN HISTORY BY CHEIKH ANTA DIOP (I KNOW YOU’VE NEVER HEARD OF HIM) OR GO ON YOUTUBE AND LEARN YOUR HISTORY DEVOID OF WESTERN BRAINWASHING.

STUPID DUNCE.

SIRTee15:


U are just talking shit out of profound ignorance.
Whites don't like themselves. They only unite when they want to hang up against blacks.

Canada invaded USA and burnt down the white house in 1822.
World war 1 and 2 was fought by whites due to battle for ethnic supremacy in Europe.
Whey do U think British voted Brexit...U think it's.because of blacks? They wanted the eastern white European to leave their country. Brexit has nothing to do with blacks.

White only unite and become one when it comes to black issue.

Exactly. You are very intelligent.

Timetravel88:


This is a big LIE. You are shameless to spew such ignorance online

HOW IS IT A LIE?

I AM A RESEARCHER, SO WHEN I TALK, YOU SHUT UP AND LISTEN.

THE WHITE POPULATION OF ZIMBABWE and SA ALONE EXCEEDS THE NUMBER OF AFRICANS IN EUROPE.

SOUTH AFRICA HAS OVER 6 MILLION OF THEM.

THERE ARE LESS THAN 5 MILLION AFRICANS IN EUROPE.

Goddyrichie:
ogun kill u papa 👴 I don’t know why we black hate to hear d truth I’m a fans of d white cuz if they do to our fore’s father many years ago steal our resource even till now they’re still stealing indirectly through our government but let’s say d truth we Africans we don’t love ourselves South Africa 🇿🇦 don’t want to see a Nigerian any little thing we kill each other they send us back to our country and kill our people same as our Ghanaian people let me ask u a question have u ever see a Canadian citizen do that to American b4 no but it’s we d black African always even here in our own Nigeria Hausa don’t want to see ibo a little thing Hausa kill ibo or ibo kill Hausa same as Yoruba in d same country o have u ever hear someone from Pennsylvania in USA do that or kill someone from West Virginia USA b4 no but it will only be we d black people but we complain alot when it comes to d white people

VILLAGE ILLITERATE, WHITE PEOPLE SLAUGHTERED OVER 120 MILLION OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE IN JUST THIS LAST CENTURY!

THEY FOUGHT TWO TRIBAL WARS WHICH THEY DECEPTIVELY TERMED “WORLD WARS”.

ONE MAN ALONE CALLED ADOLF HITLER LINED UP 6 MILLION OF HIS FELLOW WHITE COUNTRYMEN AND FORCED THEM INTO GAS CHAMBERS WHERE THEY CHOKED TO DEATH.

STALIN KILLED OVER 10 MILLION RUSSIANS.

EVEN IN AMERICA THEY SLAUGHTER OVER 30,000 OF THEMSELVES EACH YEAR.

IT’S A COUNTRY WHERE COMMON ARGUMENTS ON THE STREET ARE ROUTINELY SETTLED BY GUNFIRE.

GET OFF CNN AND HOLLYWOOD FAIRYTALES AND GO AND STUDY THE WORLD AS IT REALLY IS, NOT AS YOU HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED TO SEE IT.

BLASTED AIR HEAD.

Azazyel:



You are correct 💯. Africans are actually worse when it comes to racism

I DON’T RECALL AFRICANS CHASING WHITE PEOPLE TO LYNCH THEM, HANG THEM FROM TREES AND BURN THEM AS HAPPENED ON A DAILY BASIS TO BLACKS IN AMERICA TILL VERY RECENTLY.

I DON’T RECALL AFRICANS DROPPING NUCLEAR BOMBS ON HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI AND MURDERING 120,000 PEOPLE IN TWO SECONDS.

ARE YOU AWARE THAT KING LEOPOLD OF BELGIUM MURDERED 2O MILLION CONGOLESE IN ORDER TO STEAL THEIR MINERAL RESOURCES?

ARE YOU AWARE THAT IN 1897 THE BRITISH INVADED, BURNED DOWN, BOMBED AND LOOTED BENIN CITY, WHICH WAS DESCRIBED AS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CITIES IN THE WORLD?

YOU DEMON.

WHAT DID BLACKS DO TO WHITES THAT COMES CLOSE TO THAT, AND MUCH MUCH MORE ATROCITIES THEY HAVE COMMITTED ALL OVER THE WORLD?

maestro299:


I hear.
Upon the way your compatriots dey run abandon their country rush go white man land?

SHUT UP.

THERE ARE MILLIONS MORE WHITES AND ASIANS IN AFRICA THAN AFRICANS IN EUROPE AND ASIA.

REPULSIVE PEOPLE SWIMMING IN SELF HATE AND COMPLEX.

Goddyrichie:
everytime we complain about racism but d one we do here in our own country is worst than racism imagine a Yoruba parent telling they’re child not to marry a ibo child cuz of tribe or ibo parent telling they’re child not to marry a Yoruba child cuz of tribe hypocrite everywhere make dem racism us more I don’t care the white are still better than we blacks 💯 times

Self hating slave.

REPULSIVE, IGNORANT LOW IQ PEA BRAIN.

English parents also object to their wards marrying Russians, Italians, French and blacks, and vice versa, so they are not strangers to discrimination among themselves either.

Stupid air head.

Maxcollins042:


The characters shouldn't be black-washed. That's what they are simply agitating for. Blacks won't be happy if Black Panther or any black-centric film character is portrayed by a white. We cried foul when Cleopatra was whitewashed and they are doing same for theirs.

Do unto others what you want done to you. It's as simple as ABC.

DUDE….

THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS AND PHARAOHS WERE BLACKS.

THE BIBLICAL JEWISH PEOPLE WERE BLACKS.

JUST ABOUT EVERYONE IN THE BIBLE WAS BLACK, INCLUDING JESUS, MARY, MOSES, ABRAHAM, JEREMIAH, SOLOMON, ISAIAH, TIMOTHY, JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA, JOSHUA, AARON, SAMSON AND DELILAH, EZEKIEL, DANIEL, NEBUCHADNEZZAR, ETC ETC.

ALL BLACKS.

JOB WAS BLACK.

Job 30:30 “MY SKIN IS BLACK…”

SOLOMON, SON OF DAVID WAS BLACK, MEANING DAVID WAS BLACK.

Song of Solomon 1:5 “I AM BLACK…”!

Lamentations 3:10 “OUR SKIN IS BLACK LIKE AN OVEN….!”

They were ALL blacks.

IN FACT JUST THE OTHER DAY THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENT PUTIN RELEASED THOUSANDS OF ANCIENT EUROPEAN PAINTINGS AND ARTEFACTS HIDDEN IN RUSSIAN VAULTS WHICH DEPICTED THE HEBREWS, INCLUDING JESUS AND MARY, AS BLACK PEOPLE.

Have any of these people since you were born, EVER been portrayed as anything other than WHITE by Hollywood?

FOR ALL WE KNOW, SHAKESPEARE HIMSELF WAS BLACK!

THE EUROPEANS WHITEWASHED EVERYTHING DURING THE 17th CENTURY IN THE HEAT OF THE SLAVE TRADE AS THEIR RACISM GREW TO STRATOSPHERIC LEVELS.

SO FOR ALL WE KNOW, SHAKESPEARE HIMSELF WAS PROBABLY BLACK, AS WERE HIS CHARACTERS, ROMEO AND JULIET.
