If you want to put a name to it, call it >geographism. no one understands that... so racism will do... especially since Africa and being Black are seen as synonymous... and yes, people know that whites also live and are born in Africa, but trust me, Africa would not be shunned and ignored the way it is if it was populated by mostly white people... when Africa was under white power in colonial times, people were happy to do business with Africa... no matter what way you cut it, Westerners are racist... Westerners are not the "good guys" anymore... >2- Ignorance, brought forth from the belief that all (or at least most) of >Africa is underdeveloped. Africa continues to suffer from a world which demands its pound of flesh from the current generation for the corruption of the previous decades... no debt relief has been given to Africa... Africa is held in poverty by uncaring greedy Western banks and governments... who extended loans to despots during the cold war period in exchange for their alliance against communism in Africa... >3- Africa is for a large part a politically unstable continent, that's why >many people don't take that continent seriously. created by Western backing not of democratic government, but of whoever would support their cause against communism... Mobuto Seso Seko of the former Zaire was a classic example of a despot installed and backed by the CIA in exchange for his support... the Western world has raped Africa... and I would hope that the current as yet uncorrupted generation of young people would see that... maybe then you will realise why so many Africans distrust and even hate the West... you Westerners have these intelligence agencies which just go out and do whatever they like in the name of your national security... they are not answerable to the ordinary people... they barely answer to their own governments... it is time, they are reined in, because evil people are in charge of them... racists so severe they make the nazis look like lambs... while you scoff at conspiracy theories that AIDS was invented by the CIA, remember that those in charge of these secretive agencies would actually do so... >>Annie is only one of many who think like her... >>In Britain South Africans are not even allowed to donate blood because they >>think we are an AIDS ridden cesspool... which of course is again racist... >No, it is fear caused by the many reports about the fast pace AIDS is >spreading on the African continent. A lot of those reports come from South >Africa, which gives them cause to fear south african blood. correct... you fear us... on so many levels... for so long, South Africa was seen as a dangerous place to holiday... until 9.11... -- smash yer modem, reboot, kill yerself if in doubt, suck me www.AdderleyStreet.co.za
