“There’s got to be more to the problem of black failure than mere liberalism, however. Look at Africa: before colonialism, it was a place of tribalism, warfare, and poverty.”

My son, who is a historian would disagree with you. There were some mighty kingdoms in the past (medieval era) that were black. All nations were warlike pretty much and all had periods of great poverty.

Today we can look to nations like Ghana and see that once they throw off the yoke of socialism or dictatorship black nations can prosper. But, it is not fair to compare black African with America’s black populace. We have really messed up our black population with democrat bigotry that extends back to slavery and continues today with dependency, lack of whole family unit, education that is a joke, etc. I have noticed that white people or any ethnic group that lives in similar conditions have similar traits. Some of the greatest minds and most noble people in world history were black.
