But have you ever explored a simple concept like... Why are people 'prejudiced'?
Aside from simple tribalism and ignorance, which can account for no more than 50% of the problem....... Why?
If Black People were such stellar citizens and made meaningful contributions to our (or anybody else's for that matter) way of life, to the betterment of mankind, to science, literature, engineering, art or much other than Basketball then why would there be prejudice?
Yes I have actually explored why people are prejudiced. We naturally categorize things as good or bad and react accordingly as an instinctual reflex. Its what kept all of our ancestors alive. If your particular ancestor was not able to quickly pre-judge a stranger or an event you just might no exist right now.
Here is where your ignorance shows in your second paragraph. Black people (Africans) are the ones that you have to thank for many of the things that started man on the road to civilization. Not only that I also wonder how many other discoveries and inventions white people laid claim to that blacks invented. We already know whites stole ideas, music, and inventions from Black people just in this country. See you are not dealing with someone that doesnt know the truth of things. You on the other hand are parroting what you were taught in his story. As we well know history is written to make the writer look good.
