I think some of the shit posted on this thread is the result of out and out racism.
But I also think that ignorance plays a huge part.
For most of these shit kickers the only view they have of Africa, which is many different places, is a short clip on the famine or war going on somewhere. No other stories are covered in the mainstream media. This narrow view is reinforced by the Hollywood view of Africa where a white actor is the subject and the black actors are just for crowd scenes and carrying stuff for bwana.
They form their opinions from King Solomons Mines and Tarzan movies . It suits their World view and reinforces their misplaced sense of superiority. It also means that they lack any curiosity to seek out information.
This is not a primitive village.
This is not a mud hut.
This isnt Alabama.
Neither is this
This isnt a jungle drum.
This is a typical small African chapel.
What are you having ?
57 channels and nothing on ?
Stop spouting shit and educate yourself.
