Africa is mostly populated with black people so I was referring to race in that sense. More than ever, the whites were run out of there and their upward movement went down hill to tribal warfare with thugs running the country.

Again, a person's race doesn’t make them poor. t is what they do with the opportunities around them whether it be using natural resources or using their brains to lift themselves UP.

Really? See I wasn't referring to race at all. Africa is poor because they have absolutely no culture of respect for individual rights and liberties. The color of their skin is irrelevant.

It's the color of their hearts and souls that's keeping them in poverty.
