Everyone talks about this back t Africa idea, when thousands if not hundreds of thousands of Africans immigrate to the U.S. every year with no plans on reintroducing their particular cultures with what many of them refer to as the impure bloodline. Some have gone as far as to say that we "Slave decendents" are the reasons why they are called niggers. Many obtain jobs at some fast food place or as cab drivers and listen to "massas" insults about stay away from the slave decendents instead of using the opportunity to sell the idea of reversing (if you will) the or some of the damage from European colonialzation. It is as if they think that they can take our place in massas kitchen by smiling in his face while trying to seperate themselves from us. Little do they know that we understand "massa" or at least the most powerful "massas" better than anyone else in the world. As far as for what these newly introduced Africans know, we have had over 400 years to learn and we have already given a name to what they are doing now. It's called "kooning". They don't realize that they are more like koons and reinforce the stereotype of the nigger more than the resistant Americanized African of todays society.

You wrote,"However, the black African who has not been intellectually westernized could be the ultimate salvation." Do you realize that if every person of African decent in the United States including those in prison and jail (excluding those who are addicted to drugs to the point that they cannot function reasonably in the realms of a viable society) settled in our country of Liberia, that Liberia would be the most powerful country in Africa? The most important thing about that is the fact that it would more powerfull than South Africa which was given military aid from Europe and the U.S. for years.

So if anything, we are the salvation for them, and it is up to both groups to reunite for this salvation if the chains of "massa" are to truly be broken.

Now, do you really know what your talking about? Do you realize that Thomas gave you examples of how far we have come without a culture of our own? India is just now starting to catch on to "massas" game and they (many of them) have had the shared the same culture for decades. Same as China. We are only missing land. Not brain power or know how.

This may be far from the point that I was making, but if your almost at the top of the global mountain, why should you risk everything to build your own is the question we have to answer. Thomas was correct about no other place that we'd rather be. The U.S. with all of it's little imperfections is still the best country to live in on the planet as a whole. Maybe you should think more in detail about the questions that you ask.
