With all the talk of colonialism I’d love to hear from Africans with a different viewpoint. You aware of any interviews or essays? Like in the 20s and 30s they interviewed former slaves (who were old by that point) but I remember some people on FB being shocked that some of them had kind words for their former masters. I remember asking why does it shock you that there was a spectrum with slave owners from very cruel to very kind and everything in between.
I'm aware that the vast majority of "anti colonial" thought was funded by the USSR in the fifties and sixties. Resentment of whites and communists is a Venn diagram that approaches a circle.
It was about the same here too, it just took hold better. Black supremacist views are expressly tied to marxism, and were foreign imported by the usual suspects.
The more I read and learn about Booker T Washington (who is despised by the black left) the more I see he was right. He wrote a letter saying things will take time and we are not equal to the white man and we will have to educate ourselves and learn skills to gain respect. Now he was being very honest and realistic as a former slave.
The movie Uncle Tom 2 talks about Marxist invasion of civil rights movements and Soviet agitation of black communities. There was a book they mentioned by a black guy who was an ex communist talking about that very thing and they were using blacks as puppets against the U .S
I've heard Rosa Parks was part of that marxist trend in the black community, and her bus ride incident was co-conspired by at least one journalist.
Also if I remember they had another black lady do it but she was a single mother and Parks was a more upstanding citizen
Same with majority of Islamic terrorism
I disagree there.
While I do believe that they have the same origin, namely the devil, islam has been terrorizing, enslaving, and butchering innocent people for centuries before Marx ever shit out Das Kapital.
In one of the Discord servers I am a part of, there is an Eritrean man who moved to Saudi Arabia, and then managed to get to Canada. He is an Orthodox Christian who absolutely despises Muslims and American Black culture. He is one of the most based people I have ever met.
I always find it funny to see black Americans whining endlessly about how oppressed they are but then you have an African immigrant opening a small business and talking about all the great opportunities America has. I remember a coworker whose parents come from Nigeria telling me that a lot of Africans see black Americans as lazy and not taking advantage of the many opportunities America has
