We simply countered this by saying that Africa is in this condition due in large part to colonization.

It is like if two athletes are running a marathon...one of them breaks the legs of the other, and then starts laughing at him saying: "You can't run worth crap!" So the one who got his legs broken reminds him: "uhh, the only reason why I can't run as fast as you is because you broke my legs." Then the first athlete responds by saying "stop whining about the past, as it will prevent you from fixing your condition." However, who said that the athlete with the broken legs isn't trying to rehabilitate his legs? He only mentioned the fact that his legs were broken because the first athlete is mocking him, not because he thinks it will help to fix his legs.

Argh, never mind.
lol! i understand what you are trying to say but it's a bit weak imo. how can people hold down others? are some just stronger and some weaker? can some people flourish and some can't even with an huge amount of help? and these are not race based questions but questions about people in general. there are great people of every race and there is scum represented from every race. people rise up from the ghettos and people born with silver spoons up their ass end up losers with nothing. racism is a unfortunate thing but don't forget it's well represented from all sides and it's rediculous to point a finger at one and not the others.
