Hamilton is a spoiled millionaire who is very good at what he does and clueless about African reality. The notion that because he is half black he has any indea of what the average African non-wealthy go through every day to survive is laughable.
Wow. I can see how the Western countries have worked to help create the poverty of African countries while they allow their corporations to take the resources.
The U.S. did it in Iran when they killed their elected leader and installed the Shah as a brutal dictator back in the 1950's.
It's my understanding that Nigeria has plenty of oil to export, but no refineries.
That is insane, no oil producing country should have to the refined products from outside of their borders.
Who benefits by keeping Nigeria from refining their oil and selling it on the global market?
I personally agree with Lewis Hamilton.
He is not saying kick out individuals, he is saying kick out countries.
The U.S. is not going to work for the the best for the Venezuelan citizens.
They are going to do what is best for the corporations that have stake in the Venezuelan economy.
Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali are trying to work themselves out of the terrible economic conditions they have been placed in by corrupt leaders placed in power by outside forces.
The only way they can do that is to remove those outside forces.
There is no way a country can grow and improve if they allow other countries to set the agenda.
No no, keep whining about and blaming White people. We are going to change and be your slaves. We will learn to obey and serve you willingly You just have to bitch more. Look at me, I am almost convinced already.
Race is something many people raised in the West cannot escape. Western societies built entire systems around the idea of race. In reality, there is only one race on this planet: the human race. The categories we hear about today were created to divide people, rank them, and justify domination by claiming one group was superior to others.
Because of that history, race remains a daily reality for many people who grew up outside of Africa. It shapes how people are treated, how they are perceived, and how they move through the world.
So when someone says they feel uncomfortable hearing race discussed, it can come across as naive to those who have lived with it their entire lives. For many Black people raised outside of Africa, race is not an abstract concept or a distant history lesson. It shows up constantly in everyday life. No matter how much someone may want to ignore it, there will always be moments when a person is treated differently simply because they are Black.
And that reality is traumatic. Racism is not only about the loud, obvious moments. It is also the silence, the small slights, the constant microaggressions that happen day after day. When those experiences repeat over years, they compound and build up. Eventually it becomes overwhelming.
That kind of daily pressure takes a real psychological toll. It contributes to stress, exhaustion, and depression for many Black people, yet it is rarely acknowledged or openly discussed. Understanding that impact is important if we are going to have honest conversations about race and the lived experiences of people who face it every day.
Right on Magatte.
I stand up and applaud!

Real. This is like Taylor Swift discussing the struggles of regular Appalachians.
“Take back” it’s already been given back. Britain is not keeping African countries from passing their own laws.
