We Are Not Criminals We Are Africans

in africa •  8 years ago  (edited)

Racial segregation has not and will never be the solution when it comes to peace and unity and my honest opinion is to shun such act. One race being segregated from the other is not a thing to be proud of.

Black is beautiful, Black is pride, Black is honor and grace. No matter the race we are one. Truly we are black but hearts are not black, the same color of blood runs through our vain.

Africans are treated differently in town halls, markets, airports and other public places in Europe, Asia, North America, South America and other continents, and they blame it on their believe that we are criminals.
They accuse Africans of being rouges, thieves, drug traffickers and many other belittling crimes.

In a continent containing about 1.216 people, how do you judge us because of the wayward and callous attitude of the greedy ones among us? Just because a hundred persons out of 1.216 billion Africans loot money, do fraud and cybercrimes, and terrorism does not mean that we are all criminals; you can't judge a continent by one mans deed.

We have an even deeper hunger, we have this yearning for a better world. And because of that, we have an honest intention to do better. – Sombo

Do you want to know about us?

We are studious and industrious, we love one another, we make positive impact anywhere we find ourselves, we are strong and determined, we never quit, we are not thieves, we are not rouges, we are not terrorist, we are not criminals, we are one and we are Africans


I will always write quality contents because I’m quality and I’m of one quality. Are you quality??


Thanks for reading

thanks @giantbear i really appreciate your time and contribution. i agree to the fact that we are one.....

To understand Africans, you have to go to Africa.
To truly see their smiles and feel their hospitality, you have to be where they are free.

I LOVED Africa, and the people I met there. I was impressed by there dignity, their humour, their mischievousness and their endevour.

Africans are not criminals, criminals are criminals.

Stay strong, maybe one day the world will be like Star Trek.

if that will help

In Star Trek, the world has moved past the boundaries that separate nations and adopted a one planet one people structure. I suppose the existence of aliens helped :D

that will surely help

that's true.... thanks

I think Africans are ace :0)

Hooray!

Haha! You're such a happy soul!

I'm sure you won't mind hoping in one of these days to have a chat with our members.

Lol. I'm assuming you even know what we do 🙈

You have a point there, I have no idea!!! I am sure I wouldn't mind though! Lol

The Africans I know-- and have known-- have all been really nice people. I lived in Kenya for a few months as a child and remember only kindness.

thank you for believing in we Africans... I hope this goes a long way to change the mindset of some people.... Also, Thanks for taking time to read my post.... i really appreciate

You should come back soon! 😊😉

Like most places, I am sure Nairobi today is nothing like Nairobi in 1969... but I'd like to visit again someday.

nice one gbenga...Arinze......Nigera

thanks @arizon.awise.... have you joined the #Nigeria on steemit chat.... it is a very wonderful platform

no bro but will check it out.

alright... i hope you do so... thanks for checking my blog

Love your passion! Also don't let them tell you that there is more than one race. We are all human. There is no races. Race was made up by white supremacists. Facts. History. Keep the fire and I stand with you.

We appreciate the kind words and hope you'll continue to support us. We're posting under the #onequality tag

Hopefully you'll find many more interesting posts from our members every day.

Thanks 😊

thanks a lot for your words.... i really appreciate your effort reading my post

there's good and bad in this world. humanity triumphs. stay strong!

that's the truth.. we will not condone racism anymore... thanks for your response

Africa's problem is that it has so many resources. Those who want to exploit these resources will never leave Africa and its residents alone. There is no sin so great in the eyes of the powers that be as having a more legitimate claim to what they want.

Africa is blessed with resources i must agree to that, but Africans just have joy and fulfillment when the make claims to their resources....

Everything you wrote is absolutely true. I would have upvoted your post but I find the tag "afro-nigger" a bit irritating. Why on earth would you use such a tag after writing this decent post?

i'm sorry if you don't feel confortable with with the tag but Afro-niger is a combination of two words 'Africa and Nigeria'. I'm a Nigerian...... I didn't mean any harm... But i'm happy you went through my post and enjoyed it. Thanks

i wrote afro-niger "the Niger is pronounced Naija"..... thanks

Ok, no harm done. Thanks for correcting the tag. Now, the upvote is really deserved. :-)

thanks a lot.... i really appreciate and i'll be careful next time to prevent another error...

thanks for the upvote

it was a typographical error.... i've corrected my self

This was a lovely post.
Have a follow from me :)

thanks a lot... followed back
