   I am receiving A LOT of racist and uninformed comments on this video every day and I want to adress them here.

   1. Sub-saharan Africa didn't develop any written language

   This is simply incorrect. A prominent example of the Ge'ez script. But there are several others.

   2. They couldn't even invent the wheel (in sub-Sahara Africa)

   Anyone who says this doesn't know how wheels work.
   They did have the wheel, but it was of no use to them. In order to use wheels for transport you need a lubricant. In Europe, Asia, and North Africa they had the wild boar (and later the domesticated pig). These were animals with a lot of fat which could be used to lubricate those wheels. But they are not native to Sub-Saharan Africa. Without sufficient and cheap fat wheels were useless. It's why places that didn't have easy access to fat didn't use wheels.
   Even with our modern technology we still need to use lubricants… If anyone thinks a pre-industrial civilization could fix this issue, which we still can't fix today, needs to lower their expectations.

   On top of that, Africa has a lot of rivers and African river ships were so incredibly advanced that when Europeans tried to invade Africa in the 16th-18th centuries that they were easily defeated by the local Africans.

   3. Africa didn't have any countries/empires

   Even a short google search easily disproves this.
   Here are just 20 of them: Mali Empire, Ghana Empire, Songhai Empire, Kanem-Bornu Empire, Sokoto Caliphate, Jolof Empire, Oyo Empire, Benin Empire, Kaabu Empire, Aro Confederacy, Ashanti Empire, Kong Empire, Bamana Empire, Wassoulou Empire, Kongo Kingdom, Luba Empire, Lunda Empire, Zulu Kingdom, Maravi Empire, Rozvi Empire.

   Because the African leaders to the core never respected human life and practiced a variation of anarchy throughout history. It wasn't Europeans right to do what they did and call them savages. But I truly feel like the continent continues to suffer for having such a lack of regard for their own lives and people. Very few of these African nations in modern day treat their own well. Too much inner conflict and were not talking about Israel and Palenstine. This has been going on for centuries and those in the West today lost one of many tribal wars and either faced the slave port or execution.

   As an African American who traced her roots to one of many tribes, those current geographic locations have not changed much and are dirt poor or militarized. The chiefs are still corrupted and women and children have few rights and safety. It's unspeakable even for the more "developed" nations that they they like to show off from a certain angle. And this is a conversation that more of the Black diaspora is having with themselves. They cut off unity, compassion and humility for their own long ago and made it easy for Euros and Asians.

   Read Professor JBN Ayittey from Ghana. Africa is poor BECAUSE its leaders confuse capitalism with imperialism, and reject it in favour of socialism. The trauma of remembering is so great that not even 70 YEARS OF EVIDENCE will persuade Africans that what they think, DOES NOT WORK. Why was South Africa and Rhodesia the largest and the second largest economies in Africa? Because they were run by capitalists. Why did Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Tanzania, collapse? Because they were run by Marxists. Corruption is just a function of socialism. Why is Rwanda growing so fast? Because it adopted the Singapore model (emphasis on the private sector aka Capitalism).. Everyone loses their minds over history and race instead of voting for business minded leadership.

   I can buy into a lot of what you are saying in terms of causes of African stagnation after countries became independent. I would however point out a glaring example which challenges your opinions. When they gained independence the country of Botswana had 2km of paved roads in the entire country and nobody with a third level education, yet they stood alone in the continent throughout the late 20th century in their development and economic growth. The key difference was Botswana did not get into the debt spiral that was caused by the dependence on aide from the West like the vast majority of other African nations !!

    Nothing said in this video comes any where closer to the truth. The truth lies in the Scriptures, namely, Devariym/Deuteronomy 28:1-68, especially verse 68. The other thing the video is trying to hide is what the DNA technology says, that the ONLY HUMANS ARE PEOPLE GENERALLY KNOWN AS BLACKS. The rest are hybrids with some DNA from humans, some from the Neanderthal apes, some furthermore from the Denisovan apes, but ALL of them, with no exceptions, have some DNA said to be "of UNKNOWN ORIGIN or of UNASSIGNED ORIGIN", terms probably used to hide the DNA from the FALLEN ANGELS. Watch here on YouTube a video by Danny Vendramini titled, Neanderthal, profile of a super predator. This will open your eyes to know who is a HUMAN and who is a HYBRID. The hybrids have sort to insert themselves into OUR SCRIPTURES by whitewashing our forefathers to appear to have been of Caucasian stock. The hybrids are trying so hard to appear superior to us and smarter than us. However, their low levels of neuromelanin and high levels of calcification as compared to our respective levels has led them to stealing our inventions and innovations and claim to be theirs, many a time after enforcing laws prohibiting the registration of inventions and innovations by us humans. We were handed over to them on a silver platta for slavery and colonization as chastisement and punishment for idolatry. However, the time is coming, and yes, it is not far away, that Chizayon/Revelations 13:10 will come to pass as sure as the day follows the night, "He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity". It is said, "The higher they go, the harder they fall". From the life of plentiful, that they enjoy currently, to the coming life of their captivity, will be one of their greatest pains the hybrids will ever experience, and many will call on death upon themselves because of this captivity. On top of that, their genetic makeup that includes the DNA from the FALLEN ANGELS has condemned them to hell right from conception, "Ye serpents, generation of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell", we are all familiar with that scripture. The DNA technology has revealed that, the ancient Israelites that lived in Jerusalem and the surrounding areas of Judea as far back as 400BC to 800BC, the Negroes and the Bantus, are of haplotype e1b1a, meaning that they all are the biological and genetic descendants of Jacob/Israel/YAHshar'el. All this information is being hidden in this video, probably deliberately more than through ignorance. The government of Israel 🇮🇱 is doing everything in their power to prevent their citizens from taking ancestral/genetic DNA tests for fear it will expose the biggest lie ever told, that they are Jews ✡ while the Scriptures call them the synagogue of Satan as is written in Chizayon/Revelations 2:9 and 3:9. We are the chosen people of Yahuah, us, the Hebrew Israelites/YAHshar'elites (Negroes and Bantus). Praise be to our Heavenly Father Yahuah The Most High Elohim of Israel/YAHshar'el, the Elohim of our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel/YAHshar'el, our Elohim. Shalom.

    Africa has to poor so that the others can be rich and developed. Africa has all the natural resources and thus why the developed took power and controlled everything. The nature of power might have changed but the real power is ihe hands of the the developed and powerful nations. Anybody can write about this issue a book with a thousand pages from 1880 to 2024. Africa will remain poor and the highly developed countries will continue developed and more rich. The African leaders have no visions and addicted to power and wealth. Therefore, they prefer to stay in power and never give up anything for the people. This leads to war, conflicts and corruption. The rest is history and I invite every African to add comments if possible solutions. The solutions are in the hands of the developed countries 😢. What are going to do?

    There are other reasons:
    – When I first visited South Korea, whole Seoul was like a Santy town with no single high-rise building. Then, under the Marshal plan, America gave grants (free money) to develop S. Korea. West did not help develop Africa
    – Irish Americans help develop Ireland. Unfortunately, selfish African Americans do not do so.

    Another factor, that was not mentionned in the video, may have been important : horses.

    Horses played a major role in european societies, from agriculture to mail.

    But in tropical africa, you can't breed horses. Because trypanosomiasis, the disease carried by tsetse flies, kill them off like crazy.

    Africa is poor because they are so heavily divided either by tribes or the many nations that exist in Africa. Most of those countries lack natural resources such as fertile land, natural gas and minerals therefore they will always be lacking. What the continent of Africa should do is unite as one nation in order to pull together all of their resources for a unified prosperity. Africa is a long way from unity therefore a long way from prosperity as a nation.

    Ethnic division is why Africa is so poor. You know how Europe is always at war? Imagine if Europe was home to 10x the number of ethnic groups. Holy fuck. WWII would have been in-fucking-sane.

    Africa is poor for the simple fact that it never had real development, it was not unified like China or fought patriotic wars like America or Europe, Africa is just the small playground of all the existing powers

    The only thing that is going to get Africa out of poverty is if the resources on its land end up running out and its people live in constant war until the ethnic groups become countries

    With all these Black slaves building all the worlds countries, with no monetary benefits, I almost understand why todays African American don't want to do manual labor, it didn't get their fathers anywhere. Unfortunately, with that illogical way of thinking they are in the ground, or the penitentiary. The question why Africa is so poor, why don't people like sex after they been raped? It can take a long time to get over the psychological hurdles of being divide by greedy Caucasians, and other more organized countries.

    Poor governance is one of the hindrances to development and peace in Africa.The democracy we cherish has failed to be a magic solution for the creation of wealth for countries like Kenya.The breed of democracy we adopted can not serve a nation with 40++ ethnic groups,call them TRIBES or diatribes if you want to.A leader ascends to power with say 42 percent of the votes mainly from his tribe.He demonizes the rest,58 percent, regardless of their proven interlectual capacity.He awards tribe with senior government positions even when they are not learned enough.Are we surprised that we are becoming poorer-No wonder Even our culverts are made in looking at my kitchenware one should be excused for thinking that Kenya or my kitchen is an extension of China.
