I dont think so.

From what ive seen it's actually in the deep south that you see many blacks in rural areas. GA , AL and North FL has blacks in rural areas. Everywhere else I have seen is all whites

NYC (but PGH will forever be home)
Let's put it like this. Greece is on its way to becoming a South American country. It is pretty much there right now in terms of poverty. it is a welfare state.

How much worse could you get? They don't have violence and shyt like that, but they are poor as fukk.

But I get what you are saying.

Nah breh, not even close.

In Greece you earn a full pension after 35years
Less that 50% of the population works and 25% of those under 25 are unemployed
And something like 40% of the population doesnt pay taxes.

Yet- the average income in Greece is just under 30k, with over 15k being disposable income. Compared to all of Africa which is around 2.5k.

Greece aint rioting b/c its about to become African or South America. Theyre rioting b/c they now have to work and pay taxes

Exactly @GatorStaceyAdams

Like i said these cats like these are used to the United States' standard of living. They dont understand the concept of being screwed like small countries do. To them everyone should be able to afford a $45 pair of shoes. Spending over $2 on meals like lunch is normal to them. Owning a car that cost thousands of dollars is normal to them

THey cant even fathom the concept of GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES who havent gotten paid for 5 months still showing up for work in hopes that the money will eventually come.:francis:

Yeah... 5 MONTHS. As in 2 weeks times 10. :ld:Let that marinate for a bit when you think whats going on in Greece is "screwed" @Din0can

WHen i tihink of a country being screwed and what i sometimes wish upon the former colonists... it goes way deeper than what you see as "screwed".

:mjlol: Everyone go ahead and ignore this hyperbole here.

The USA economy is 9x's the UK's. If we somehow went into 'collapse', trust me- the entire world gonna feel it. If you need historical reference- just look at the last recession.

Recession? shyt we are still in the last recession, unless you actually believe the govts juiced numbers.

I said economic collapse, so we're talking Depression level or greater. So not hyperbole.... and yes the entire world is going to feel it. I never said the entire world wouldn't. The world is so connected now, that when the USA goes... shyt can only lead to global war.

What the fukk does the SIZE of the country have to do with anything?

  • France is barely the size of Texas yet was once the undisputed super power of the world. You should know this as an American. It's thanks to them blocking the British Navy ships that helped the United Stated beat the British. The French Navy blocked the Brits from bringing reinforcement thus forcing the Brits on the main U.S land to surrender.
  • Under Napoleaon the French took over almost all of Europe just as Hitler did. Conquering Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Austria, Poland and even going into Russia. And just like Hitler, that last par was their big mistake.
  • Japan is barely 1/10th the size of China but invaded China at some point if im not mistaken

It's all about economic power and military might.

thats what im sayin bro. even though they didn't have large #s they were still able to finesse our kin out their homelands and start this whole thing up.

The Slave trade was basically ran by the Portuguese, they set up shop in Africa in the late 1400's, and they were really the only Euros that really knew Africa, and African politics.

good to know, thanks. by the way do you know any books or resources where I can read more about this?

Africa is slightly geared towards Islam sir. :patrice:
Let @Poitier live in his own little world. There's a reason i didnt bother to respond.

Native religions are still very relevant in parts of africa. Vodou, despite the stigma attached to it is still strong in alive in countries like Benin and Guinea and Cameroon.

Not trying to steer the thread onto a relion debate but to get back to the point that started this. No i wouldnt say AAs have managed to keep their ancestry any more than other blacks in the american continent as @Loose suggested

The World Book Encyclopedia has estimated that in 2002 Christians formed 40% of the continent's population, with Muslims forming 45%. It was also estimated in 2002 that Christians form 45% of Africa's population, with Muslims forming 40.6%.[13]

Take away Arabs in Africa and Christianity wins in a landslide.

Either way, neither are African religions.

You forget the majority of West Africa and much of East Africa(outside Somalia) are also Islam.
