the nature of slavery

Many people do not know, and most Nigerians tend
to forget, that Nigeria used to be known as the
"Slave Coast." While Ghana was known for its gold,
the land now known as Nigeria was a haven for
slaves, this due to war and an enabling climate
for slave raids and trade in prisoners of war.
Ostensibly to finance more war. It is appropriate
to delineate the relevant parties in the slave
trade by the bipolar distinction of victim-practitioner,
since, where judgment is being held--the United States
of America--color seems irrelevant as concerns
the tenor of those responsible for selling the ancestors
of Diana Ross into slavery. In the African Nationalist
movement we were informed that, in fact, slavery
could not have existed without the demand for
slaves in the plantations of the New World, and this
is true. But why did the supply HAVE to come from
Nigeria?

Today we have a US President who is black, but whose
parents were not the descendants of slaves. Kenya,
his ancestral home, is not immune to slavery, but it
is a history of islamic slavery. In his parts,
the influence of the East is overpowering and
the inferiority complex just as in West Africa.
And so, there was a supply of slaves, too, from
East Africa, but in the other direction. Why
did the supply HAVE to come from Kenya.

If the black US President DID have slave ancestors,
would his behavior be any different? I contest that
it would be more dignified, more of the mountaintop
that Mr. King envisioned, not the erratic charlatanry
of a man whose wisdom is not rooted in the density of
the wisdom of God. Where is his wisdom from?

It is wise to take a good look at Kenya and Nigeria and
it is wise to understand the nature of these societies.
If you bury your head in the sand like an ostrich, you
will be ignoring the key traits you need to search for
when a man dawns into his primordial soul in order to find
a solution. It is wise to understand the nature of the
black man who would and can enslave his son, brother or friend,
...and always, it seems... as in the Slave Coast of West
Africa...

"...for the greater good..."
