Look how well off they all look (both black and white) compared to today!

99% of those people you see in the video are gone from the country

Weird to ponder

Yeah weird. It's almost like natives were still unhappy about colonialism or something.

Zimbabwe used to be the nicest country in Africa.

Then the inmates were allowed to run the asylum.

You do realize blacks are far worse off now than they were then right?

Do the blacks in the video look oppressed and starving to you?

They look like they are enjoying what a productive economy provides: material comfort and access to all kinds of goods and services

When colonizers left, they didn't do it in a way that set up their former colonies for success. They drew country boarders in ways that made no sense that led to serious ethnic tensions within individual countries. They took what they wanted and bailed, and didn't give a shite about the people they fricked over.

i loved this argument in my poli sci classes in the early 2000s and i love it today

what were the "sane" borders pre-colonialism?

that led to serious ethnic tensions within individual countries.

was there not ethnic tension in the same geographic areas prior to colonialism?

do you think SSA needs to be broken up into 1,000+ nation-states?

i don't think they were really offered much of a choice but to leave in such a hasty manner

Would you say these nations are better off for having been colonized? (They never got Ethiopia)
