That's why I'm seriously contemplating on skipping Colombia, saving straight thru December and off to the Motherland.

Well brothers, good luck on your journeys.

Hopefully we all raise healthy and strong families at some point.

Although most of you think I’m mentally ill, i still love you brothers.

Keep up the fight.

You mean Africa?

I do wonder why a lot of Black guys want to visit Africa! It could just be me, but the only place I really want to go is Ethiopia. I have been to my father's land and it was just OK.

Why wouldn't we? If we took anything serious from anyone else on this forum, the only place for black men would be the moon since we're not blonde hair and blue eyes (except us from the Pacific). Where do you think black should visit? Leave one former slave colony (the US) and go to another (S. Am)?
I don't have the urge nor inclination on visiting Europe or Asia to me honest; I don't particularly care for their women. Colombia was cool but guess whose on the bottom on the socioeconomic ladder.

I'm the neighborhood Garveyite so I make no apologies for me post and rhetoric.

I’ll miss Kongo Empire the most.

Salute to that brother.

You guys do know that slavery in Africa was a thing right? Especially in West Africa and especially in Ghana. Slavery was a world wide thing, not just in the Americas. The only difference is it's not by race, it's by kinship. In other words, if you're not kin, or from an important family, they don't give a fuck about you.

Of course, that is just an generalization, but you get my point. If you're looking for a place that's never had slavery or some shit: good luck.

And in a week, none of us is ever going to have to listen to this sort of bullshit anymore.
