It goes to show how brutal the oppression/Apartheid was. Even now, as the years go by since it ended, they are still so much worse off than such a tiny minority of the country.


It's probably because they don't have Affirmative Action and leaders like Al Sharpton in South Africa. We have that in the United States and it works like a charm.

Lots of them. I know plenty of blacks from Nigeria and Ghana.



Did you know that Ghana is about 100 mi short of being as far from South Africa as Anchorage, AK is from Miami, FL?

There might be a wee bit of a difference between those regions.

Ever black person I see bitching about how oppressed they are in the US I offer to buy them a one way ticket back to the motherland but they can never come back. I've been doing this for 20 years and haven't had NOT ONE taker yet. Africa is insanely rich in natural resources yet every country over there is a shithole.

I played soccer with a black south african in college, he had 56 pairs of shoes in his dorm.
