        I don't even need to read this....... I encourage you to visit Ghana. Leave from NYC for the lowest cost flights. Jan or Feb are good months to arrive. #Accra #Sekondi #Lome #Banjul

        From my understanding (friends from Nigeria and Tanzania), no. The roles are totally reversed there. Difficult for white people to obtain office, I mean, they're the minority there. HOWEVER, their leaders are a lot more openly corrupt.

        What these people don’t get is that this is just what the white supremacists want, and they shouldn’t give in and let them get the 100% white county that they want. If MLK has given in, then imagine where we would be as a nation.

        One group could give in, both, or none. We've tried the together thing to get mocked and our strongest leaders outed. We'd never ask whites to give in bc...well obviously that was never part of the plan. Sooo, yea, leaving the situation totally is not necessarily too far off.

        What we need is to do what MLK did, which is to organize together and make all those racists lose money by boycotting their products. Remember that together we can overcome anything. It stopped Jim Crow Laws, and now we can end racist immigrant laws, and police brutality!

        History proves anyone not fitting into what America views as an ideal society gets killed. You must've grew up in an affluent part of town. Where I'm from, that's known as the white people area. Is it illegal? Yes. Is "separate but equal" still prevalent, though? Yes.

        I wonder if Black Panther will accelerate this trend? A mass media portrayal of a Black Utopia in Africa will soon be witnessed by millions of black men and women who DIDN'T go to HBCs.

        Good point. Positive Images is what drives immigration to Europe and America today.

        Bruh, Africans don't like us out there. Sounds all good until you're actually there. Research the sentiment they have against US blacks.
