Almariel said:Is this a justification that black people is inferior? That black people deserve to suffer because some millenia ago they had a super-empire that was extremely cruel? Ok. What about white people? Why aren't they suffering, then? Oh... there weren't other extremely cruel empires in history, right?
I don't recall people of African descent being referred to as inferior. This is a misconception based on all our historical programing. As we know every day brings forth new information as it relates new understandings/overstandings and how the information is received & processed. Africa's history did not start with slavery, this website has lots of info that may help to fill in some blanks http://www.africanholocaust.net/news_ah/africa%20before%20slavery.htm.
Since reading The Wave series, joining this necessary forum and learning from our networking with the C's, I do not necessarily follow datelines because I know that some of the information is disinformation/misinformation, however, there is much learning that is still possible.
The subject of race can be very difficult conversation if not approached by open minds. When truth is revealed many cannot deal with it because new found knowledge may unravel all that one was taught to believe by their social structure/upbringing. For example, many Danes visit the former Danish West Indies to explore their history and links to the colony, only to find out some of their ancestors were enslaved Africans. Many times based on that knowledge alone they stop their searching.
Self-hate is a very destructive element and the cause of much division on this planet. As the C's say, "You are souls, not bodies". Our bodies allow us to have experiences we could not experience on a soul level. "Learning is fun."
