Beyonce Homage to Black Panthers

I'm not denying colonisation had a big part to play in making that country the bread basket of Africa.

I suspect though you would deny it's the anti-colonisation that has turned it into a basket case.

Perhaps I am missing something, but weren't they a terrorist organisation?

Its members
-It engaged in many gun battles with police, including ambushing officers
-Many members were jailed for a bomb conspiracy
-Some advocated violent revolution and urban guerrilla warfare
-Torture murdered members suspected of being police informants
-Members of different factions assassinated each other

E.g. at one point, it was led by Eldridge Cleaver, who (after being arrested of rape and assault), wrote a number of books, including where he acknowledges committing acts of rape, stating that he initially raped black women in the ghetto "for practice" and then embarked on the serial rape of white women. He described these crimes as politically inspired, motivated by a genuine conviction that the rape of white women was "an insurrectionary act".

And before anyone says that the ends justified these means, how is this different from the Islamist terrorists, who also believe that their jihad is justified?

It's not about numbers, dufus. It's about WHY they were killed. A lot of unnecessary force is being used on them as opposed to their white counterparts. Good to know you're justifying being killed over a traffic stop.

Lol. So colonisation would have helped them eh? Struggling to have access to basic human rights while their colonisers fed off their backs would have prevented all that eh?

Lol you're laughable.

Idk who/what they are. Neither do I gaf. The point of the matter is that, basic human rights should not be a privilege and sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get it.

Good response to a statement of fact

LOL. He gave his country it's independence and respected world wide. Try again.

That doesn't stop him from having a murky past.

His murky past was what had to happen for his country to get its freedom.

And the country is so much better off now?

I have a very strong feeling OP is white. White folk never remove their earplugs or their blindfolds.

Hahaa loool you can tell he is.. Most likely studied Histrory at uni and now knows about every political movement on earth. I just stopped reading the nonsense on the thread after a while. A lot of them had done zero research beyond Wiki and then tried to tell me about Black History 😂😂😴

It is much, much better than it was before.

Have you been there?

I wouldn't be speaking if I hadn't. Question is, have you?

Yes, I spent a while working there.

Difference in opinions. The only reason why I'm lead to believe that you think it was better before than now is because you are white. It was better for the likes of YOU.

If it was so good why did you leave?

So, you're suggesting that stupidity is associated with race? Or only one race, e.g. white?
