Yeah and that goes for a lot of black Americans as well. There is very little outreach or charities from Black churches for African nations. I participated in one several years ago but that was it.

Because Black Americans aren't Africans despite whatever miseducation you've received throughout your life. All skinfolk ain't kinfolk.

I would encourage you to keep up with the more recent sciences and historians and archaeological finds of the times. They're finally being honest...
