so what do you mean by success? it's all relative - and relative to the capitalistic global society that we are currently residing in, success is measured in exactly those terms. it's up to you to define the terms of your success for your self but for people living in modern societies that have set the standard for success as having more of everything, how else is "real success" measured? you said you were a realist - I beg to differ.

question: do we have to be accepted by whites for us to acknowledge our worth as human beings. excuse me but fuck anybody, black, white, red, blue, I don't care who - who tells me that I need their acceptance before I can be deemed worthy as a human being and an individual. that's not an issue and it shouldn't be. we don't need to walk around demanding to be accepted. we need to focus on more pressing issues.

because it is more within my power to "fix" my "ruined" self in this country than it is in some parts of the world. I'm not sure I understand your last sentence.

um. . . but didn't they do that already?? I think that's why they left eventually. they took what they wanted and left the scraps to the natives.

that's really easy for you to say. the only raping and pillaging going on in Africa as far as I know is being done by the Africans themselves. And sorry to gray your blue skies but it's going to take millenias before Africa returns to its former glory. In the meantime, the fortunate who can make their way out of the beloved "dark continent" will continue to do so.
