ORIGINAL: Ebony0330 And for the ... well educated idiot who said "So we should put them back in huts, at the mercy of tribal chieftans, without medicine or hope for improvement." Her is an educational piece that i would hope You found ... useful http://ezinearticles.com/?Why-the-Africans-Live-in-Huts&id=1712857 Also, Quoting from 'Breaking Silence' - False and negative views of Africa and Africans were used to justify the Transatlantic Slave Trade and colonisation. However, in reality, the Ancient civilisations of Egypt, Ghana and Mali among others – some of which grew over 5000 years ago – made enormous discoveries in science, medicine, astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, and architecture long before they were known in Europe. Africans had crossed oceans by the time Europeans made their first journey to Africa and some of the European visitors to Africa recognised that societies were just as advanced or more so, than their own. In truth, contributions from Africans and the African continent to the shaping of the modern world are enormous and denied only because of the development of Eurocentric and racist views. Learning about those you hate can sometimes be a stepping stone for understand exactly why you hate. Fear of something greater than you. You completly missed the point of what I said. I was listing what the blacks who live in America have lost by being here. No way I think they should be put in those conditions. I have no hate for any group, I beleive you need to know an individual before you can hate them. Fear of something greater than me? Because they are black? Sounds racist to me. The slaves were not being bought (they were bought, not captured by Westerners) from advanced protions of Africa so maybe you should get down off that horse and pay attention.
