actually they didn't have much in the way of writing, at least not where the white man went. that was another thing the white man noticed. they had some civilization, in the form of warring tribes who would enslave each other. "we are legion" is a term that means we are many, don't say i don't educate black folks.
You're into numbers. What percentage? A lot of conservatives deny being racist. You think most of them are though? But he appeals to people such as yourself by playing into the racism you feel, right?
If racist equates to being tired of black people's ****, then they are. And that's the issue. It is perfectly reasonable to feel that way, but it's considered racist by the left. That's the crossroads we're at. How does he do that? With the dog whistles? I started a thread on that and never got an answer
You keep hopping around on the word or concept of "racism". You said racism is normal. I'm pretty sure that if a person thinks their sh*t is okay, and they think another's race is sh*t, that is racist by anyone's measure, not just "the left". At least you're (somewhat) honest about your racism as opposed to all the people who think the same way as you do, but deny it completely. He doesn't appeal to you in that regard? He seems to appeal to many with similar views as you. There must be some reason. He doesn't come right out and say it, but he seems to come close. Funny, because another thing that people with similar views to you seem to like about him is he supposedly tells it like it is...yet, it's always sort of fuzzy. Sort of cagey, the same way you are. "I'm not racist, but racism is normal and perfectly reasonable. And me and legions of white people such as myself are tired of black people's sh*t". That's not particularly fuzzy, of course, but Trump says things in cagey ways that appeal to people who think that way.
Ahhh, this is where I get to prove you wrong: Aside from ancient hieroglyphics, there were ancient languages in Africa such as Nsibidi, ancient Ge'ez script, Tifinagh and Vai, just to name a few. I'm assuming you've never heard of the Songhai or Mali Empires ever then. What can you educate black folks on, you're preferred dialect for redneck speak?
When the black community says racism still exists and white people tell them no it doesn't. When women say sexism still exists and men tell us no it doesn't. When gay people say they still aren't equal but straight people tell them they are... that is the problem. None of us can pretend to walk in someone else's shoes, all we can do is listen. A minority community is saying there is still injustice. As a white woman, I have to listen to them. I can't just say I don't see race... because how nice for me. I'm sorry you're so scared, truly I am. But the number of violent people claiming to be with BLM is quite small compared to the thousands who peacefully protest. Focus on those ones and not the extremists.
"We are legion" is what the demons possessing a man said to Jesus when asked to identify themselves. Your posts confirm.
you need to do some more research and not just google, many of those languages are arabic in origin. i know that the vast majority of what we know of them came from arab travelers, but they didn't keep any written records. What can you educate black folks on, you're preferred dialect for redneck speak? yeah, you really wanna go down that road mr. ebonics?
Tifinagh has Berber origins, yes. All of them, however, originate on the African continent. And yet managed to rule much of Western Africa for a long time. Bring it.
we're talking sub saharan africans here guy, those are your peoples. with nothing to show for it. ebonics is just about the dumbest dialect i've ever heard.
Should've stated that earlier, Saharan or sub-Saharan is still part of the African continent. All empires that have existed have fallen so..... A bit less annoying that than backwoods hickville dialect I hear from other folks.[/QUOTE]
sorry i thought you knew the history of your own people. here's another hint, hannibal wasn't black. yeah and they leave monuments to their greatness. things they've built, other empires they've birthed, advancements, pivotal people etc. all we really have of african "empires" are oral stories and a legacy of slavery that still exists in africa. he dindu nuffin holy crap, there needs to be a black kid named dindu, last name nuffin
Nigeria is a sub-Saharan country, is it not? The place where Nsibidi language originated. The Tombs of Askia don't appear to be just oral stories, from what I read. GIT R DONE BILLY BOB JOE!!!!
nsibidi is made up of ideograms, and not even advanced ideograms. comparing it to actual language is like comparing scribbles to calligraphy. yay you buried some people welcome to 100,000 years ago. i bet billy bob knows who to call on father's day.
No one said it was advanced. Take off a couple of zeros and add a "6" and you'll actually be right. His dad who doubles as his uncle, 5th cousin and niece?
hahahah ok then. actually humans began burying people 130,000 years ago. yall are waaaaaaay behind the curve. ha, yeah, i'll just leave this here http://www.thecoli.com/threads/incest-in-the-black-community-the-hidden-secret.324853/
I meant the creation of the tombs themselves. The best you can do is drop another forum link? How honest of you.
wow so impressive, can't believe it was built in the 15th century. the cathedrals that the white man was building at the time pale in comparison. a forum link with news articles, yes.
Are you actually defending a cop who killed a 12 year old kid who was playing in the park with a toy plastic gun? You are really a sick puppy.
Everything is a potential threat champ. Any car coming down the street is a potential deadly weapon. It is a policemans job to use disgression before blowing a 12 year old kid with a toy gun away. I sure hope that imbecile is no longer running around with a gun and a badge.
