Why is it the best interst of Bantu-American individual to be Slave then to be free, (interms of controbuting positive thing to the world)???????? rudy reply: may be where u live u experience alot of -ve vibes for africa-americans. u should cme to la or altanta and see how so african americans live. and i am not talking about hollywood stars but middle class ppl who r living the good life!!! Why so many Bantu-American girls are choosing to give birth ***** in order to become a single mother to get CEEYR? rudy reply: hmm! this has long history that cant be detailed her. long time ago the blk families were the strongest unit. however, during early 60's something welfare was established by the kennedy administration which was to help ppl who fell out of society. the flip side of this story is that this administration was afraid of the civil right org and need something to distroy the unity of black familes. so, in hindsight, if you like at it today, this program has destroyed blk familes and also, i believe its destroying the nomad familes. the longer u stay in this program, the more distructions it causes to your familes. never trust a white man's policies always be wary and question them!!! i rather work in Mcdonald than stay in welfare. thats my opinion.
