You do know that Europeans enlightenment came with the influence of the Moors and the other discoveries that were made. Before Moorish influence, Europe was in the dark ages and being enslaved by the Roman Catholic Church.
Also since you are black, why does Pan Africanism and Africa for Africans turn you off? Africa is the most mineral rich and resource wealthy continent on earth. Why do black Americans want no part of that pie. No other ethnic group ever turns their back on their own to get ahead. Could you imagine Chinese nationals living outside of China saying fuck China. Does not matter how long they have been out of China or where they live, they remain Chinese and have a sense of loyalty to their own. I am not championing the Chinese, I am just using them as an example.
If such moors influenced the enlightenment, why are their areas still stunted by such ideas as slavery and religious control over the government while it began to end in Europe?
Africa is mineral rich/resource wealthy...but it is also corrupt,religion,savagery rich too.. Groups who were pushed out of China on bad terms dont have this fond feeling of the place(look at Taiwan). Why be loyal to something that aint treating you right? Thats not any better than a bitch staying with a man that beats her.
Imagine you are a kid, and on your mom side you got dysfunctional shit everywhere. People who have nothing going for them in life, and sit back and let other people get rich off their work and ideas
On your dad side you got a well established family, who have things going right for them. Which side would you associate with?
This is what you have to decide.
