As incredible as it is, there are a growing number of people, particularly Africans within the U.S., who believe that Africa stood by twiddling its thumbs while the ancestors of those of us living in the Western Hemisphere were savagely kidnapped and brought to this part of the world. There are at least a couple of reasons why this insanity continues to grow legs. First, as much as people don't want to acknowledge it, people don't engage in serious study of history. Africans don't study African history and no one else does either. The danger in this is if you don't put in the work to properly understand our true history, you have absolutely no choice except to believe the false narratives promoted by our enemies. And, they have plenty of them that they cram down our throats 24/7. They tell us Africans in Africa don't want a connection with us. They tell us our people in Africa willingly sold us into slavery. They desire us to believe that slavery actually, as astounding as this is, has benefited those of us living within the U.S. No matter what confusion rolls out of people's mouths, if you don't know our glorious history in Africa fighting tooth and nail against those who would colonize and enslave us, you have no option except to accept, at least on some dysfunctional and sub-conscious level, the lies being told to us about our history and the fact so many of these myths still have legs beneath them confirms their effectiveness.
