American Zoo Apologizes For Putting A Congolese, Ota Benga On Display At Their Zoo In 1906 After 114 Years

Bronx zoo has apologized for putting a Congolese, Ota Benga on display at their zoo in 1906 after 114 years.

He was kidnapped from Congo and brought to New York, where he was exhibited in a monkey cage before hundreds of people at the Bronx Zoo, New York in September 1906.

When I saw the documentary about this man, I lost complete respect for some white people. There's nothing honorable and respectful about their history. Especially on how they built their wealth. None at all.

But the mere fact that this was based on his skin color is bizarre and that the whole world today still depends on this racist system to keep their wealth growing.

Really terrible. Unfortunately, even amongst Africans today we've got xenophobic attacks, tribalism, religious intolerance, & discrimination based on social class...what we fight the whites so much to liberate ourselves from, is what we technically serve each other with as Africans.

Mad o...

If we keep looking at the past, we will keep getting filled up with so much hate towards each other


The white have done terrible things to the black and the black at the same time have done terrible things to the black

This slavery wouldn't have been possible without the aid of a fellow black man. A black man is the one that sold his kinsmen to the white for something less than 30 pieces of silver.


There is no difference between tribalism, xenophobic attacks and racism.

Times are changing..

Today, many youths will even see that as a privilege and jump at the opportunity.

So sad.

What's the difference between racism and tribalism?

Afterall Nigerians do domestic racism aka tribalism against each other

Even in Yoruba land an Ekiti man Will be hating on an Ondo man

Yorubas will call Igbos "ajeokuta mamomi"-people that eat stone without drinking water

Igbos will call Yorubas "0,fem@nu"-people that swallow a lot of oil

Flat head,cone head and all that rubbish and that's why I laughed at those idle fools in VI protesting about the BLM when the tribalism at your backyard is stinking

.

Whites don't forget. If only Nigerians had that attribute person for nor De power now

The monkeys calling Nigeria a zoo...this is how we would cage them too.

That's messed up man.
Damn!

Mad oh!!!

Racism and Tribalism are like 5 & 6. Even within us, we discriminate against each other, so whats the big deal.

This is the greatest height of racism.

Sad

There is nothing a white man will do to me that is worse than what The fellow Blackman has done to me

The pains in his eyes...tells a lot of untold tales

Too pathetic!

This isn't among the worst things the westerners did to Africa...

The are the beast...

Unfortunately some of our people still worship them

...

Read which 'more' where?

Hm...

Verdict: Did we know we did worse to ourselves before the colonisation?? Human sacrifice was a norm as at that time..
