Components of reparations often argue that African-American problems come from Blacks simply not valuing education! Few can explain why that is however. They do not equate slaves losing their origina ...

I have yet to read an article on South Africa that did not mention the United States somewhere in the passage. You would almost think America shared a border with SA, with the feeling of 'shared histo ...
