The Africans who are coming here are very well educated. I can't argue there. That being said, Africans are not going to be considered "White" in the USA.
They will never be considered white, but will be accepted because their behavior is, let's say, more civilized than the average underclass American black. They are not Brothas.

And average American Black has always been mistreated no matter how he has behaved. Look at the history of this nation. First you say it's IQ, then you say its behavior. My view is that Black Americans have been shaped by being shipped to the USA by force, enduring slavery, and then enduring more discrimination and hatred. Africans are coming here from a different narrative.

However, I'm convinced that you have hatred and resentment towards Blacks, no matter what.

It seems to me many black kids don't want to learn, my question is why? I begin to wonder if it is more about aptitude, which is related to IQ ??? I heard on the news, one of the majority black (90%) city high schools has a 60% absentee rate, again, why??? Seems like a lot of black kids/parents don't care or is the academia to tough? Oh, and btw, what in Gods name would I be resentful for toward blacks?I have stated before, I absolutely detest the behavior of underclass ghetto blacks.

Aptitude - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Well. I'd classify you as a racist. And I don't throw that title around lightly.


But to answer your question, its because education is shunned in some black neighborhoods. Especially by kids and their "peers."

By "shipped to the U.S. by force" did you mean "sold to the slave traders by their African brethren", or have you blindly accepted the white liberal "social justice" revision of history?

Not all Africans were sold by other tribes. And even so, many did not know what it entailed. Slavery was still accepted in most parts of the world at the time but had different meanings depending on which part of the world you were in.

In many African tribes, "slaves" were treated fairly well. Some even ate with the family. Slaves often came from war or were used to pay off debts.


But all in all, I don't want to make it seem like blacks are any better than whites. Or vice versa. Just want to spit some knowledge.

The truth is racist.

Whites, Asians, and even Hispanics are on average, smarter than Africans.

Young black males commit 50% of the violent crime in this country.

African-Amricans are MUCH better off in this "raciss" European society than any of their African brothers on the home continent.

I could go on, but I don't want any liberal heads to explode.

If aptitude has anything to do with it, then why are Blacks Africans among the most educated groups in America?

And why do you ignore other posts I've made to you?

I don't like the behavior of some "ghetto" Blacks either. However, I know more than you where this behavior comes from. And I also have experience with underclass rednecks. I've even been victimized by some of them in school. I've seen both sides. Perhaps your issue is that you live in the Pittsburgh area.

I don't even know where to begin with you.
