They would have been the greatest Nation/Continent. One just needs to read about the visions their co-founders or founding fathers had and you'll see there was adept potential,there was a much bigger dream that obviously never came to pass,still hasn't today.
They have always been happy with the little that worked out for them since the bloom of their genesis.
With what they knew,yes they would be labelled as backward today when compared to the rest of the global progress. But their own rate of progress,call it development would have been the most suitable for them. Only them.Western influence....so called civilization destroyed all that.
Will someone agree with me that they were never born to be over curious and therefore lacked that sense of adventure or exploration?? They ought to have been let alone.
Unfortunately,that is not the case today.
My thoughts:
The thought that if not for white influence... the black man would still be crude and would care less about civilization since he would be quite content with what he has/knows. He would be competing with noone for space,love or experience.
The thought that If he was who he was many many years ago with nothing from the west,it would be eat,sleep,procreate and live his day to day life.
The thought that,it wouldn't be a hell of a problem if he ate from the trees,walked naked and lived by the rules of survival of the fittest,would it??
The thought that If it wasn't for civilization he definitely wouldn't have known a lot of things.
The belief that leaders who led their Nations into independence had better vision than what the western world had in mind still holds water today..
The white man intrigued him with the way they lived... but if he had picked their brains instead of stupidly following their lifestyle then maybe he wouldn't be as unfortunate as he is today.
Civilization remodeled what would have been considered simple problems for a typical black man to solve back then by and for himself to something he should be passive about. Complications resulted.
The result, is what he is suffering today.
We need to grow up and get rid of that "the white man is a savior mentality"
Just my 25 and a half cents.
