And if affirmative action is great for the rest of America, why can't young Yalies open up their great school to the poor of their own community?
They were the only ethnic group brought to America involuntarily.
Wrong. African and Arab slave traders sold anyone they could as slaves, all around the world. There is a large settlement of Chinese that was brought here as "indentured servants". There were white slaves. Any many blacks in America are from ancestors who emigrated to our shores (see Barak Obama's parents). Of course, maybe there are no Nigerians in Atlanta anymore.
Still would like to know why Africans and black Americans have such a differing world view. They do not like each other for the most part.
Interesting point.
I don't remember who it was, but a black journalist wrote about going back to the part of Africa he originally was from and he expected to be accepted as a black brother with open arms.
The Africans thought of him as a American, not black, not a brother, but a plain ole American.
It was a shock to him
I guess Africans don't get to listen to the American race pimps and be beguiled by them
"There is a large settlement of Chinese that was brought here as "indentured servants". "
Not true. The Chinese were basically deported en masse after the railroads were built and they legally blocked from immigrating at all for decades. Chinese immigration didn't really start until the 50s and afterward. And mainlanders were pretty much out of the picture til the late seventies/early eighties.
