What history do blacks have besides barbarism, slavery and failure?

John P

You mean - just like the history of whites at many times in history?!

Users should be aware that there is an effort underway to use social media such as Y!A to propagate the false impression that racism and intolerance are common in the English-speaking world, and in the USA in particular. Persons have been encouraged to create and use puppet or anonymous accounts to spam various messages containing racist or intolerant views, in order to spread the impression that such ideas are widely-held. Their target is YOU.

You really have not paid attention to your history lessons have you. Oh wait, Americans only teach history from their own perspective.

Look up King Musa I of the Mali Empire just for starters. In the United States, black people have contributed hugely to the culture. It wouldn't be the same -- not remotely as rich and deep -- without their contributions. If you don't know that, you're rather an uneducated Philistine, aren't you? You certainly don't know any history. Tragic. Did you even make it through high school, dear?

That's a unique skill set.

Thank you for that marvelous demonstration of why we need to teach black history. The level of ignorance is appalling.

My personal HERO from childhood on to now is GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER. If you have never visited his birthplace in Diamond, Missouri which became a national monument in 1953, you should---it is exquisitely moving. Born a slave after a white man named Carver "bought" his mother, George Washington Carver transcended this humble beginning without harboring any negative feelings and became a botanist able to find miraculous uses for plant life, starting with the peanut, but extending to the sweet potato, cotton, and others. Perhaps you should open your mind long enough to visit the Black History Museum, or at least visit your local library and do some reading of the rich history of people of color. Maybe you could start with Muhammed Ali (Cassius Clay) if sports is your thing...or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Rosa Parks might appeal to you as the civil rights movement began when this hard-working woman, tired from a very long day of cleaning, simply said no when a white man asked her to move out of her seat on a bus. Martin Luther King, Jr., has an inspiring story, and so does Congressman John Lewis who survived a white supremacist attack on Bloody Sunday where he was beaten nearly to death and yet remained peace-loving and dedicated to public service to make this already great nation great for ALL of its citizens no matter the color of their skin. Live and learn, little NWAI.

So you consider Obama becoming President of the United States a failure? You consider MLK barbaric? I could point out millions of failures in the white population, so being a failure is certainly not restricted to blacks. Neither is barbarism. Most of your serial killers in America have been white. As for slavery, America has one of the worst histories for slavery. For over a hundred years white slave traders from America and Europe traded and treated blacks in the most inhumane and barbaric fashion. And yes, black Africans also traded slaves, but the white slave traders never protested or tried to stop it, so the whites were every bit as bad! And as for history itself, America has only 500 years of history behind it and of those, America as a country has been in existence for 239 years. And of those 239 years, America has been at war for 222 years. America has only been at peace for 21 years out of 239. What a shocking statistic!

None worth mentioning!

Black traders reached South America before Whites did

Violation Nation!!

A scandal-less presidency that still managed to trigger alt-whiters like yourself who - among other things - believed his pigment made him an antichrist. xD Deplorables sniff their own farts and call them flowers. But everybody can tell you for the racist crap you stink of.
