390 years to wait for a history lesson. Such a hard lesson at that. It would be nice if one could go back an ask some slave if he valued his slavery so that he could be here and not in his homeland.

It also amazes me the some white folks think so little of us. They never think Africans could have developed on their own, without European interference; that in those 390 years African institutions could have developed. They still think that Africans could never be as good as them.
