Beorn: Stop arguing unnecessary. I did not mean that he didnt know that he had the right to contest for the throne. My point is that he couldnt have known that he would win against T'challa. Or even going back, T'challa could choose not to honor traditions as Killmonger was already too late. He could have executed Killmonger on the spot. See game of thrones.... |

alexistaiwo: In the case of people like Jaja of Opobo, he was killed by whites because he did not allow slavery of his people. This is what is left out of history books. Kindly look at your brother or family, would you sell them for gold? Many african tribes resisted slavery but they were killed or subdued into it. While I accept that there were some tribes that sold their fellow black men into slavery, I will also point out that there were Jews who collaborated with Nazis. Think about that. 1 Like |

Fire on guys, I'm enjoying the discussions. Good points, Beorn. Without the arguments, this thread will be very much like the tv series thread; a ghost town. Btw, last night's UCL match between Spurs and City na fire. It's easily the match of the season IMO. 4 goals scored within the first 11 minutes. Madness. 1 Like |

AfroSamurai: I really love the movie to bits too. Trust me a sequel or remake would have ruined the whole movie, take the remake of the 1995 JUMANJI for instance, JUMANJI welcome to the jungle was just a watered down version of the original, despite Dwayne Johnson & Kelvin Hart's performance. Besides, Matilda ended on a happily ever after note, and also, Mara Wilson aka Matilda Wormwood hardly has passion for acting now. If you've seen SMALL SOLDIERS, that's the movie i would definitely love to see a remake & sequel to, its safe to infer that with the level of tech we have in Hollywood now, the CGI for the movie is gonna be off the roof, as in freaking awesome. 1 Like |

JeromeBlack, I understand your umbrage about racism that blacks suffers. But I think you're letting your emotions cloud some factual reasoning. While there were Africans that resisted the sale of blacks into slavery like Jaja of Opobo, there were other blacks that willingly sold their brothers for guns, money and other gifts the white could give them. I'm not trying to absolve the whites of any wrong, but the blacks had their faults in that slavery horror story. The artifacts were looted as well when they took over our lands, but you can't count out that some dumb blacks must've exchanged some of them for some ammunitions, mirrors and other stuffs the white had to offer. But majority of them were forcefully stolen. |

JeromeBlack: Some of the guys words were cringe worthy TBH. I couldn't believe he wrote about light at the end of the tunnel for people turned to slaves against their wills. Degraded, dehumanized, starved, killed, subjected to the worst form of inhumane treatment, had light at the end of which tunnel? |

Never seen a match where defending is neglected. It's attack, attack, and more attack all night. I hope Ajax - Spurs and Barca - Liverpool will be the same. Damn, I love the UCL. 1 Like |

That is why I said it is difficult to grasp the technicalities of the argument unless you can think objectively. There are evils then there are EVILS between living as a slave with a tiny hope of freedom and being sent to a concentration camp and subsequently gas chambers to be used as a mad man's lab rat. I believe one of the two is a lesser evil and any reasonable person will know which is which. Beorn: Beorn: |

JeromeBlack: Yes, T'challa could've chosen not to honor the traditions, but that doesn't mean that Killmonger didn't know he'd be successful against T'challa without powers if he honors the tradition. T'challa without his powers is just like everyone one out there. Nothing special for a US black ops soldier like Killmonger to be afraid of. |

oyetpel post=77437499 : I had Googled it before asking you. What I saw are two people who wouldn't agree with each other but are still not bigots. Koice might sound condescending sometimes without him being aware of it, but he's not intolerant of people's opinion to the best of my knowledge. Boko haram and the legions of Nigerians that approve the killing or jailing of homosexuals are examples of bigots. 1 Like |

Alexistaiwo, Speaking about not understanding the technicalities, I find it funny that you cannot see how flawed your "evidence" for Jews being more victimized is. First is that there are black Jews and Muslims Second is that "Jew" refers to both religion and race Third is that the article adjusts for total percentages which is wrong in this case because of many statistical problems with definitions and parameters. When you look at the raw statistics from that 2015 FBI page, you will find that there have been 1,605 hate crime offenders against blacks and then only 387 hate crime offenders against Jews. In short, that article is trash. I knew it before going to research it. 1 Like

Beorn: See this one talking. Can you beat that hulking beast called Mbaku? T'challa beat Mbaku What if T'challa studied MMA/UFC? Do you know that most people, including marines cannot beat a professional UFC fighter? For killmonger, it was a gamble. |

alexistaiwo: Both are evils, bro. While that of Jews might seen heftier to you, I'd like to let you know that the whites did more than just slavery, they looted our history, destroyed some of our cultures, massacred any of us that stood up to them. Many slaves were thrown off the ships on their way to Europe. Many died under hardships or lack of medical care. It's easy for you to see the Jews massacre as more deadly because of the statistics written. If you know the true numbers of blacks that died when the white invaded us, including those tortured or worked themselves to death, you won't be typing these opinions of yours. The reason why you feel that blacks that were sold off are better off is because of how modernized and successful the whites have been, while our dumb leaders keep taking African backward. The blacks now in foreign country might be living in a much better and improved lifestyle than the blacks in this shithole country, but their forefathers paid for it with their lives, blood and sweat. |
