If you have a few minutes, check out this video from 1975 about South Africa and southern Africa in general and the fight for independence from colonialism back in the day.

@frankster What got my attention was the role the Russians played, selling arms to some of the African revolutionary groups who fought against the racist regimes.
It seems to support what you were telling me the other week about how weapons from them were used to help them gain independence.

True...I respect the fact that you did your own research.

Guess who were the Western Governments supporting?

In other words they are no permanent friends.....only Allies - an only when our interests Align.

Neither Russia or China is a Friend....if Africans give them the opportunity to abuse and misuse Africa and Africans they will.

The pivotal point between Africa and China....Was the Bandung Conference of 1955 - that will explain why Russia and China helped with weapons.

One of the reasons why Troare ran out the French....is because they were providing intelligence ands weaponry to the terrorist organizations in Burkina

Whilst giving the Burkinabe Soldiers wooden rifles and faulty intelligence.

The rise & spread of white white supremacy throughout the planet has been well documented through books & media.

As I mentioned in another thread, information is readily available for d8mn near anything one really wants to know.

I also understand & realize there are truths many people don't want to know or acknowledge or accept for one reason or several.

Human history & how people have treated each other up to present is often embarrassing, painful, shameful, etc.

From a scholarly perspective, I know how a few white folks were able to control a country like South Africa with millions of Black people.

No different from France controlling Haiti & other Black countries. Same goes for every other colonizer. Violence.

Whenever white folks try to insinuate that Black people are violent, they are truly blowing smoke & hiding their hands.

If Black people were truly as barbaric & violent as white people, there would be no such thing as white supremacy.😎

I remember Malcolm X mentioning this Conference in his Message To The Grassroots speech.

Lol.....ready information like we saw a few years ago claiming that horse tranquilizers were the cute for Covid???

Although the truth is available there are 2 important facts to remember when it comes to people being properly informed:

1. Much of the TRUTH on the internet is surrounded by a lot of lies, misinformation, and disinformation.

If you don't know what to look for or where to look for it, you'll waste a lot of valuable time and energy spending years looking for something you could have found in minutes with the proper guidance.

Which brings me to my second point....

2. One of the reasons they start educating humans early as little children is because you have to be properly GUIDED and DISCIPLINED into learning, and the earlier the better.

You can't take a man who is used to bullshitting and living a life of undiscipline and criminality for 40 years and present some important information to him and expect for him to accept it or for it to change his life.

He hasn't been trained to be open to it.

Most people around this planet haven't been trained to be receptive to new and useful information.

Racism and the Ideology of White Supremacy as we know it started in the Early 1500's reach it zenith in the late 1800's and began it decline in the late 1900's

Information that's in the Public domain is that which Officialdom curates and deems necessary and essential for public consumption...

Violence does explain a lot of it

It's funny you mentioned that because I was having this very discussion earlier today at work about how information is presented on the internet.

There is plenty of information available, but you have to have secret codes and passes to get it.

For a long time I thought simply GOOGLING a subject would bring up all of the information available on it.
Then I thought you'd have to search on Bing and a few other search engines to get more comprehensive but that's just the tip of the iceburg.
....then you have to know how to access the DEEP/DARK web to really get down with the get down.
