A lot of Africans (immigrants & those still living in Africa) speak better English than white Americans.

No, but she was talking about people like you, expressing how closed minded and ignorant Americans are. I know because I am an American. It is really embarrassing.

What makes you think she was saved by going to school in the US? She was well educated when she arrived in the US. She went to university here. People come from many places, including Europe, to attend university in the US. Do you think the Europeans who come here are saved by attending our universities?

Established media has lost a lot of credibility. Everything is produced through a filter or framing that distorts reality into what they want the masses to see. Now through the increase availability of independent journalists and individual contributors, everyone has easy access to indisputable proof of events happening around the world and they can think for themselves instead of being told what to think. Support these journalists and not the media moguls.

Making questions should always be embraced as genuine interest, as a South American myself I would never consider a question about my country’s ethnicity and culture as an offense, on the contrary, I am happy to teach others what they had not had the chance to learn previously. We are all ignorant about something or somewhere.

@chicagata except when the questions are always painting your people in a primitive way, it gets old. There’s a difference between being ignorant and being a bigot
