Not as long as Africans.
Whites will always be considered foreigners in sub-Saharan Africa.

I've been to Forsyth County. It does not look disgusting. You want disgusting? Try parts of Paulding County.

I've always admired Oprah's calm during all that - like she was completely unbothered. That's always been my attitude towards racism.

I, for one, would not want to live in a place where I was not wanted. Let them have their white-only town.

What makes it a cesspool? Define "cesspool". Forsyth County does not fit that bill. Cesspool is what parts of South Atlanta area. Forsyth is nowhere close to that. I've been there. I went there around 2017 for an interview. Nothing about Forsyth was "cesspool".

I wouldn't have that kind of calm. America is suppose to be for everyone. You live wherever you want to live. The only way I wouldn't live in a certain place is if my safety was severely compromised. Other than that, if the persons there don't want me there, they can leave. I can live wherever I want.

As for South Africa, in the post-Apartheid era of South Africa, it's suppose to be for all.

This isn’t about the slave trade.


You are right.......it's about those who created it and ultimately consumed by it for centuries.
It is sad that many do not learn the lessons of history.
