My answer is Europe yet it has been a curse for everyone under its dark spell,Einstein said a problem cannot be solved by the same mind set that created it,In order to solve the problems related to racism we must approach the solution from a pre-slavery mind set,the concept of race was designed as a tool to control other people,
When we return to ancient Afrikan concepts, we accept that we just are!!!!,they were not a color conscious society,they just were,Its diifficult for many in America to wrap their mind around this concept because,they cant see themselves beyond their perceived color.
Fredrick Dougkas spoke about the duality,After he escaped from slavery and self educated himself in the art of rhetoric(the most persuasive speech) he became a renown orator and wrote a best selling book,when a warrant was issued for his capture, people of all colors raised money and had him sent to Belfast Ireland where he recieved a plaque commenorating his visit that is still there to this day.,Fredrick Douglas said"It was the first time in his life that he felt like a whole man( not being made to feel conscious of who he was,but just being himself) this was because Irish people had felt the same sting of slavery too,Irish people were stripped of their native tougue galic.by England {the mother of this country},
When we free our minds our bodies will follow,Look at the double standard attached to the connutation of race,If one dies for their country in America the news reports them as a American casualty!When a person of color wins a medal in the olympics,The Americans won the medal.But when opportunities of jobs and loans or education,Then they want to know what color you are,why not ask my shoe size because that seems equally odd to me..Why do you need to know!!
