If you can't afford to fly to South Africa for the Amy Biehl Tour, then I'd say you need a week of cultural enrichment in Detroit. And summer is the best time to go! What are you waiting for?
I'm sure Greggy boy has a black "friend" or business associate up there in lily-White New Hampshire. What a diverse state! Maybe I'll invite him to visit me sometime, I'll drop him off in West Philly so he can get his diversity fix!

South was backward bc the pop. Was comparatively undereducated, lower skilled, and undercapitalized. Unions preventing industrialization in the south until Taft law.

the critical lesson that has been learned so far but not put into practice is getting rid of the all the colonialists is a horrible mistake. they are the ones that bring cash to africa.
there is nothing, and i will repeat one time bek this is important, there is nothing that has shown in african history that getting rid of white people makes africa richer.

SA like all black run countries in Africa has become a failure. Let this black guy run this country into a ditch and maybe the UN or Jane Fonda will show up to show all the starving children.
