Black Adam786 If I was rich and still abled, I too wouldn't want to just sit back, retire and do nothing. Effect your children positively to always aspire and when in a position put back by helping others - our own people first mainly cos no one else is. I'm raising my child that way. Akon's no hero, he's a true human among the many greedy selfish souls, rich or poor. Appreciate the Akons of this world sure but there are many people that would do the same just not in a position. So we raise our children to not be selfish and create many opportunities for them in America and UK built on a foundation that excludes black people to be a worthy human being as I'm sure Akon had a strong black mother.

[@11kwright]

Hey There You are racist. America and UK is built on a foundation that excludes black people. My child is trying to get into the industry. He's a great singer, doing all the exams as other white kids. Coming 2nd in a competition of many and mainly white kids. Yet I said to his teacher - it's so not fair, he's doug all this work, going to auditions but West End (Musical Theatre) isn't built for black people cos his voice is much deeper than other children his gender and all the songs are mainly done for high voices. His teacher - white, totally and sadly agreed ans said it is hard cos you have to look at other areas. I didn't know what was meant by "white privilege" well I do now and this is just one experience. You white people wouldn't understand cos you are the system for better or for worse. plus note, Akon spent most of his young childhood in Africa. He's lucky enough to now have free movement and has accessed a world that he's above white privilege cos now he's more than that but still human and empathetic. However, my gorgeous son loves his place of birth and doesn't yet know the horrors out their - people. He's beginning to realise the world isn't fair and people, not all aren't too. You just posess ignorance and hate and spin things for your own benefit so you can sleep well with your denial. Black people must look to helpinf their race first and how they do that is their business cos much have been taken from them in the past. However, black people will also still help others regardless of race on a general scale. Black people generally don't hate as I've bought many homeless whites food and hot drink before (as an example) and other things. But if I was rich, I'd help my own people on a bigger more empowerment scale for their own benefit to access the world on an equal platform as other countries do. Just like the platform for white and black in the same wirld growing up together isn't equal - why do one race have to work harde than the other all the time when going through the same system!!!

[@11kwright]

Hey There Like who cares about your ignorant opinion. And you realise his IQ is more than yours, yet his struggle in life was more than you.

Being born and raise in the US and our thoughts vacationing in African didn't exist until recently.

I have had the opportunity to travel the world in the past three years and I have had a mental shift. I reside mostly in the Middleeast, and it felt like I belonged on that side of the world.

Africa is a huge continent comprised of many nations. So saying "going back to Africa" is vague. Secondly, African Americans ancestors originated in Africa but our cultural identities were destroyed when slave owners forced African slaves to assimilate into a heathenistic European culture that beat down the sense of African pride in our ancestors and separated families. We don't even know where on Africa our ancestors come from. Going back to Africa is relevant but an agonizing concept.

Mass Religous beliefs based on Lies, laced with political fantasies like the story of Cinderella, the Diana Princess of Wales Hoax, the Bishop called what Fairy Tales are made of, and told the people it was a Hoax and they still believed the lies, based on a arranged marriage to produce an Heir and a Spare, because of her youth, she was being used to fullfill a promise, an older lover could not fullfill, Camella Parker Bowles, the wife of an adulterer, and a Husband of an adulterer, No one speaks of the deception, only the Myth based on a LIE.

multyz1 Africans in each country speak several languages but there is one mutual language spoken by all! Africa is not good as it is now because most countries are still controlled by European colonizers with puppet leaders only serving themselves not the people! If the continent was unified as one with a strong organized leader who ruled in the best interest of the people on all levels of government, with it's rich natural resources which are needed world wide, Africa would be the most powerful continent in the world !!

[@multyz1]

I wish the problems Africa is facing could've been easily boiled down to only having a unified president. The correct form and practice of good governance, democracy, respect for human rights, justice and the rule of law can also do the trick for each country. A unified president alone can not make Africa something different than it is now. Ghana has been doing great in their form of democracy but they still face a lot of challenges unique to most if not all African countries. The uniqueness of Africa is the individual strong cultural identity, heritage, values and ethics that each country has. Europe does not have a unified leader but each country is not doing bad at all. If individual countries in African is peaceful and secure, politically united and all tribes in each country feel that they're included in the growth of their country, and there is sustainable development, Africa would've been a better place. Africa can still be powerful if they unite only on trade.
