To All of the Young, Angry Black Dudes Who Somehow Think that the World Owes Them Something Because of Slavery

I'm going to cut right to the chase here. If your ancestors had not been sold into slavery and had remained in Africa, you either wouldn't be alive today (your ancestors likely having been killed in war - which was almost constant in Africa - or worked to death as an African slave - African slavery being the most brutal in human history) or you would be alive and living in abject squalor (Botswana being the only African country that's even remotely functioning and even there the GDP is only about a third of what blacks experience in the U.S.). I mean, I hate to be so crushing here but you have to learn the truth eventually and so why not hear it from Uncle Will?.....................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, those same ancestors could have also been sold into South American, Caribbean, or Arab slavery but that probably wouldn't have worked out all that great for you, either (places such as Haiti and Brazil also being pretty fucking poor while the Arabs used to castrate their male black slaves).
