PEACE

Why are ones and ones offended by the brotha's question? I find it not only a legitimate question (in the face of THOUSANDS of years of oppression under the western/white world) but a CRUCIAL one for us to discuss as Afrikan Descendants.

For a FULL answer to the questions, I would recommend reading 2 books:

"The Iceman Inheritance" by Michael Bradley
"Yurugu: An Afrocentric Critique of European THought and Behavior" by Marimba Ani

Also, here's a saying that applies:

Can the leapord change his spots or the Ethiopian his color?

Can tiny grains of sand be removed from clay?

Also, let us keep in mind, that with such discussions, generally speaking, we are not addressing a particular INDIVIDUAL but taking a GLOBAL LOOK AT THE COLLECTIVE DEEDS OF A NATION/PEOPLE.
