[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] Again, Africa is one of the wealthiest continents in the world as far as natural resources. Before European conquest and colonialism Africans had their own industries that processed and refined raw materials into the goods that were in demand at the time and sell them to foreign markets. It was only during European colonialism that native industries were destroyed and replaced with those run by European companies. Now that the Europeans are gone (with exception of South Africa), Africans are forced to sell their raw material for cheap prices while foreign companies still process the materials and sell them get paid at much higher prices. Not all but many nations in Africa in the global market are nothing but giant sweatshops to say the least. The old ludicrous white fantasies of black racial inferiority are no good because many of these Africans are intelligent and educated enough to be accepted in the most prestigious and elite colleges in the West! Many of them come to the West because they have better jobs and thus economic resources. It's true that some African nations are beginning to catch up with the West, but how long with Africa as a continent be able to recover completely from its bankruptcy and become a major player in the economy that it was centuries ago?
