WHAT FREE YEA AFRICANS

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE STATEMENT "AFRICANS ARE FREE NOW THEY CAN DO AS THEY WISH?"

  1. It is a bold statement Stenio, when the Africans were 'free' to do what they had to do, it was a not a sense of accomplishment, what did they accomplish, getting their life back? I wouldn't say that is much of an accomplishment ... it's like saying you've been getting bullied for a period of time and you don't do anything about it except for the one or two attempts and through these times they would take things from you and make a profit off of all of it you see it in others people possession, but you don't do anything about it, not because you don't have the power, but because you are confused, why us? So to this statement I don't think the Africans and us as people shouldn't take much awareness to it because it's just demeaning it really is a spit in the face, they were treated like crap and someone else decides whether they are free to LIVE?

  2. I think it's true, because no one can make black people work for northing like they did in the past. I believe that black people now are free to make life they’re own.
