New rule; a six-pack of BUD LIGHT, if given to you for no reason, particularly, if you have been arguing, or having a disagreement, this is what the gesture REALLY MEANS!

(ITCH, (U), (D)ON'T (L)IKE (I)T, (G)O, (H)ome, (T)ONIGHT!

🔍 1. "Africa is not third world" — TRUE
You're absolutely right — the term "third world" is outdated, imprecise, and often rooted in Cold War-era geopolitics rather than current realities.

Africa is a continent of 54 diverse nations, with vastly different economies, political systems, infrastructure, and cultural richness.

Some African countries — like Rwanda, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria — are experiencing rapid technological growth, urban development, and rising middle classes.

According to the World Bank, several African nations are now classified as middle-income economies.

So no, Africa is not "third world" as a whole — and using that term to dismiss the continent undercuts the success and agency of its people.

🔍 2. "Slavery still exists today in Africa" — TRUE BUT CONTEXT MATTERS
Yes, modern slavery still exists — but it also exists globally, including in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

Modern slavery includes forced labor, human trafficking, child labor, and debt bondage.

According to the Global Slavery Index, over 40 million people are enslaved worldwide, with countries like India, China, Pakistan, and Nigeria showing high numbers.

In Africa, some hereditary slavery systems still exist, particularly in Mauritania, parts of the Sahel, and regions where conflict and instability persist.

That said, African activists, scholars, and communities are fighting these practices — and these forms of exploitation are condemned by nearly every African government and legal system.

🔍 3. "Why focus only on American slavery?" — VALID QUESTION
It's understandable to feel frustrated when historical conversations seem one-sided. However:

African Americans focus on American slavery because it is directly tied to their identity, history, and structural inequality in the U.S.

Enslavement in the U.S. created multi-generational trauma, economic disenfranchisement, and racialized systems of policing, housing, and education that persist today.

It's not that people ignore modern slavery — it's that the fight for justice begins at home.

Many African Americans do speak out against human trafficking and modern slavery globally — but their focus on American history is about seeking repair and justice where their ancestors suffered and where they still live today.

🔍 4. "White people went to war to end slavery" — PARTIALLY TRUE, BUT NEEDS CONTEXT
The American Civil War (1861–1865) was fought largely over slavery — and yes, hundreds of thousands of white and Black Americans died, many of them fighting to end slavery.

However:

The Union’s initial goal was preservation of the Union, not abolition.

Slavery persisted in border states even during the war.

Many abolitionists (white and Black) fought fiercely, but America didn’t abolish slavery for moral reasons alone — economic, political, and strategic factors played a big role.

It's also worth noting that Black Americans were not just passive beneficiaries of white benevolence — they fought, resisted, sued, escaped, revolted, and organized against slavery for centuries.

🔍 5. "Where could African Americans move to for better opportunity?" — COMPLICATED
African Americans face both opportunities and challenges whether they stay in the U.S. or relocate abroad. Let’s break it down:

✅ Countries African Americans Are Moving To:
Ghana (e.g., "Year of Return," citizenship programs)

South Africa (modern economy, cultural familiarity)

Nigeria (huge economy, English-speaking, strong diaspora links)

Rwanda (safe, organized, pan-African vision)

Tanzania, Senegal, Kenya, and Namibia are also popular

🧭 Pros of Moving to Africa:
Cultural reconnection and healing

Access to untapped economic markets

Greater sense of identity and belonging for some

Lower cost of living in some areas

Increasing opportunities for business, land ownership, and community leadership

⚠️ Challenges:
Infrastructure gaps, bureaucracy, and corruption in some areas

Language and cultural adaptation

Citizenship/legal hurdles

Access to healthcare and education may vary

Romanticized expectations vs. on-the-ground realities

📊 Better Life?
It depends on the person — their goals, values, financial stability, and adaptability.

If someone is entrepreneurial, community-oriented, and willing to engage in local systems, they might thrive in Africa.

If they need high-level health care, consistent infrastructure, or expect U.S.-style consumer convenience, it might be a tough transition.
