Well, they never invented governement, electricity, the wheel. In the case of western africans at least, they never invented a written language, much less write anything substantial.
I’ve said that before. I’m sure there are good minority writers but if any minority or female writer is promoted today my first assumption is that it’s yet another lecture about racism or sexism.
