At 14:53 did you mean "Black Americans" instead of "Black Africans"?

[@The1987Kid]

I have to address something you said, please do not refer to black Americans as “black africans” we are not african, we have been in this country for half a millennia, we cease to be african centuries ago, not all of us came in the 1800s as slaves or as immigrants, my roots go back to the colonial period, and you also make it an emphasis on black American’s white ancestry due to if being from rape, but I don’t hear the same thing about hispanics who are an admixture group who had slavery on in their countries, black Americans as an admixture group are no different from puerto ricans or dominicans, you use a liberal UN immigrant perspective of black Americans, the term “african-American” relatively speaking new, we did not as a group vote in on that designation of who we are, maybe you should talk to black Americans and not 1st or 2nd generation Americans or Canadians from the caribbean or africa who have no roots here.

[@The1987Kid]

@@OculusUniversaleyou caught that to? Black Americans are not african, this guy likes ti push this africanization of multigenerational black Americans, they also like to say our white ancestry was solely by rape with no nuanced perspectives, not all of us come from slaves, I’m descended from free negroes who were called mulattos in Virginia, Alabama and Georgia, he’s a canadian trying to articulate black American history

No mention of the Carter Center's nearly eradicating _Guinea worm disease_ worldwide. Thanks to his organization, global annual cases have fallen by 99%> Also, _river blindness_ , thanks to the center, is now gone from both North and Central America. (There is one stubborn focus left, though, on the Brazil/Venezuela border.) So far, he has indeed been a far better ex-president than president!

[@CharlotteFairchild]

We would have had recycling and solar sooner had he had a second term. I think he is under-rated as President. The craft beer took off because of HR 1337.

[@Teewriter]

. Ivermectin, which was developed by a scientist in Japan, is the miracle that solve river blindness not Jimmy Carter. Ivermectin the medication they told you was going to kill you if you took it for Covid and yet it saved millions of lives.. Jimmy Carter had nothing to do with that. He’s not Japanese, he’s not a scientist, he didn’t manufacture ivermectin, he had basically nothing to do with the miracle of ivermectin. It really is sad state of affairs and presidents are awarded accolades for something they didn’t do.
