I am a whitey with some question-marks in my mind on the subject of black people. There are some questions I would like to explore in this thread and learn about myself. Through listening to a lot of uplifting music by blacks in the last decade (reggae, gospel, soul, jazz, hip hop, blues, ethno) it seems to me that in some areas blacks are more spiritually mature than whites. But there seems to be an uncurrent or a subtle consensus in the world that being black is associated with poverty, crime and non-education. Why is this? Is it a conspiracy?
There is evidence of a high culture of black people in ancient times (olmec statues, african kings, ancient egyptian blacks). Why has this history been supressed?
Was africa relatively peaceful and prosperous (in their way and culturally) before colonization began?
Is there a conspiracy by whites to start wars so that weapons can be sold (an insider told me this is the case)?
Why, after whites have exploited and enslaved africa financially and physically are now the Chinese allowed to do the same?
Why is there hardly any improvement in Africas welfare although the problems and their solutions have been obvious since a long time?
Have black leaders such as Malcom X, M.L. King and maybe even some music artists been assasinated by whites?
Is there a conspiracy regarding jewellery trade?
Has the hatred of some white people fueled deliberate attempts at subversion of black culture?
I hereby pass the topic on to more expert posters.
Update: Thread Re-Start
The Conspiracy-Theory as it refers to Africa:
World leaders know that it is better to teach how to fish instead of giving people fish for free (and making them dependent). Still, most of the times they choose to give the fish for free rather than teaching about boats, fishing rods and fishing techniques.
Knowing this and not acting according to it = conspiracy.
I will stick to this for now and accept the rest of my opening post as insufficient or inconclusive.
