Koffi at his best. Affirmative action at it's best. The Blacks in the US still will not accept hte fact they won the lottery. How fortunate the Blacks in the US are, they could be in Zimbabwe, So. Africa, Congo, any place in Black Africa.

Here's a quote from Dinesh D'Souza's web page at Hillsdale College.

Recently David Horowitz created a stir by attempting to place ads in college newspapers denouncing the idea of reparations for slavery -- that is, the disbursement of cash payments to blacks today as a way of repairing the injustice of historical slavery. This bizarre idea of reparations reminds me of a story related to the heavyweight fight in the mid-1970s between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman. Held in the African nation of Zaire, this famous fight was billed -- quite insensitively by contemporary standards -- as the "Rumble in the Jungle." In any case, after the fight was over and the victorious Ali returned to America, he was asked by a reporter what he thought of Africa. He replied, "Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat."
