Ethiopia clearly proves that Black African states and people can stand proud next to western nations, which easily dismisses the racial argument.
My view is that like in the Middle-East the effects of colonisation have not been eradicated and that is obvious because the colonial borders are still there, the borders imposed on these territories were created to reinforce divisions which have been maintained up to the present day, the Brits did that in Cyprus to the Greeks who are not only considered Europeans but they were also allies and indebted and relatively loyal friends. Think about it, if the British for example have no issue in fomenting divide and conquer policies that result directly to violence and chaotic situation to their own allies and friends and creating issues which persist to the present day despite Cyprus being in the EU and modern and all that jazz, just imagine how brutally they and the rest of the colonial powers established divide and conquer policies among people who were neither allies nor friends and at the time officially considered and treated as sub-human as well, they most likely went on power overdrive. Also many colonial companies that were given mandates to rule over African countries some of them are still in operation, having larger revenues than the countries they operate in, does anyone in here believe that this has no role whatsoever and that colonial influence has seized entirely?
