Gosh...acquiring basic literacy is the foundation of education, a slow progression, just as in all western civilization. And just who do you think provided the schools and teachers to educate indigenous populations at basic primary levels?

Reversal of progress.

They should burn the place down on their way out.

Let them live in $hit huts like the rest of Africa.
