A deflection, as expected. Typical con.

And you didn't ask me a question, nice try.

But not without being accused or suspected of having an anti-black or improper motive. So few are going to say anything other than it's the best whether they believe it or not.
Have you ever been to these countries? Nigeria is more diverse than the U.S by a long-shot. You drive 40 miles and you don't even understand the language of the people there. Also if your talking about phenotype diversity then that isn't multiculturalism. Have you been to El Paso or Corpus Christi? Vast majority of people there are Hispanic but all you here walking around in corpus is Southern accents and El Paso looks like any American city, I have ever been to. America is almost essentially a mono-culture. Most people have the same language, the same religion, shop at the same stores and go to the same places to eat. Sure immigrants have a few stuff from other countries but clearly their culture is almost the exact same as White American culture. A multicultural country would be Spain with Catalan or Basque region in Spain, having a different skin color doesn't mean you have a different culture. Race and culture have zero relation, ethnicity and religion has a bigger relation with culture than race.

I can walk out my door and at the nearest public square hear languages I don't understand and see foreign clothing. Countries in Africa can't even integrate their closest ethnics and America is required to try to integrate the whole world.

A radioactive spider biting a teenager and giving him superpowers is way more believable than the most advanced civilization in the history of the world being in Sub-Saharan Africa.

A report was recently released by PostTrak who conducts exit polling on film audiences. it revealed that whites were the 2nd highest racial group behind blacks that purchased tickets to see the film. Also, whites represent the majority of "that hip-hop garbage/noise's" consumer base. so using your logic, there must be a lack of culture among your white kids in abundance

As long as they don't mention Obama in the movie, I'm good.

What we actually see is a lot of bizarre rhetoric from blacks who can't distinguish fantasy from reality, and a fawning media promoting this. I'd be embarrassed and annoyed... if I were black.

South African actor John Kani, who plays King T’Chaka, told NBC News that this movie has a deeper meaning for non-Americans and people living in Africa.

“This time we have a good kingdom, an advanced kingdom. We've been to the moon. You think about flying in spaceships, we've done that long ago. This movie will prove to the colonialists that if they had not interfered with Africa, we’d be so far advanced..."
