In 50 to 60 years it won't be the blacks you have to worry about it'll be the Hispanics. Maybe they will support welfare or build some housing projects
Then you'll see discrimination Mexican style. Get ready.[/quote]

Not really; the ones hurt would be the dark skin people, they "worship" white skins

Most Hispanics don't have that many kids in 2012; maybe 2 or 3, tops.

I never learned my learned my family's native tongue. Yes, I could go and learn German, but it's not the same, as PA Dutch is a dialect of German and is now a dying language
Boo hoo, go cry me a river.

No one should feel White guilt.

As a Black man, IMO, people need to evaluate how they feel about stereotypes and how well they can listen to an individual story.

If a White person want judge all Black people the same and not recognize diversity, and hate they should feel guilty. Not for being White but for being dumb.

It will list the different great civilizations of Africa.

There are many other books about the great ancient civilizations of Africa.

There were many great poets, architects, doctors ect. in ancient Africa.

Africa is currently rebuilding.

Everyone wants to steal the resources from Africa, so that's why I said why it's the world's richest continent.

And they're still stealing the resources from Africa.

Western society wouldn't even be where it's at if not for the riches and resources that they stole from Africa for thousands of years.

I know it's hard to accept but in the next decade expect more to come out about the true history of the world.

The African countries you speak of, were northern Africa, which is populated by Caucasians. Pyramids were built by Egyptians, who were Caucasians and the book you refer to is nothing more than a bunch of made up crap.

It's really sad when people engage in pseudo-science to fit their political needs. I agree: the book is nothing but a bunch of sci-fi crap.
Instead of focusing on the past and trying to reinvent it why don't the 15% black minority focuses on trying to prove they can be valuable addition to the mix and try to solve the issues that plague the community like single mothers, fatherless kids, poverty, drugs and crime. When Trayvon is shot in Florida blakcs can mobilize and march in millions; why not mobilize every day and make sure black kids go to school and get guidance? Why not mobilize, cooperate with cops and clear the ghettos from drug dealers and thugs??? Why can't the blacks unite and work together to resolve their own issues? When they were brought to America they were part of different tribes often talking different languages. Is this tribal legacy still present in America today?

There is a growing black middle class in America, cities like Atlanta prove that you can be black and successful but the black middle class has to help the rest of the blacks escape the confines of welfare, alcoholism, drugs and joblessness. Irish worked with the Irish to resolve the alcoholism, Italian prosecutors worked to get rid of Mafia. Blacks have to do the same to get rid of ghettos and crime. But to get there you have to stop talking about racism and prejudice, you not only have to admit there are issues plaguing the black community but also admit that the white men can't be blamed for all the failures of the black men.

Read "Destruction of Black Civilization".

Thousands of years ago, whites were no where near civilized or advanced as Africa.

Africa DNA is the oldest and purest DNA on the planet. EVERYONE has black ancestry.

Africa had survived in splendor for thousands of years before the invasions from the Muslims and Indo-Europeans came.
You post no proof of this.

The book sounds like another attempt to blame everyone else for their downfall.''We had a wonderful very advanced society until the white man came in and destroyed it'' No one can provide any evidence of this and if anything, most black countries/areas benefited from colonization in the long run.
