Lord Tony, no hard feelings, but how asinine of a mindset is it to believe that Africans should, in any way, be GRATEFUL for the colonization of their continent by Europeans and other nations? You're failing to realize that if it never happened, the ENTIRE course of history would be altered;
Actually the slaves we shipped back from America to Africa actually used the knowledge they learned such as reading, writing, etc and were able to actually form civilizations that were more advanced than just spear chucking.
If we didn't enslave africans at all they would still be spear chuckers to this day.
Some, still are spear chuckers.So slavery did make africa a slightly better place.
