Charles W asked:


Dear African-American Yahoo Answers Participants,

I am Sir Charles Worthington V. My primary place of Residence is the United Kingdom and my family and I own numerous estates in various Southern US States. During the 1700’s my family acquired
the majority of it’s wealth through various slave trade and plantation endeavors which allowed for generations of my family to enjoy financial freedom. Over the recent years I’ve spent generous amounts of time in America and during this time I was introduced to
American Hip-Hop music. One particular Writing by Artist T.I.P and I do quote:

“To put us on the boat and enslave us
Worker that never paid us
Killed Malcolm X, Martin Luther King
and everybody else tried to come down here us
Killed my father that raised us
Kidnapped us from our country”

Instilled a certain level of guilt upon Myself, in which, supplicated motivational inspirations to make an attempt to correct the unfortunate injustice bestowed upon African-American Citizens, by not my own bloodline, but the mere political influences of an Era. I intend not to insult but make an honest attempt to provide remedial recourse
for the circumstances which enable me to live a extravagant lifestyle at the expense of my fellow human beings. I’m incorporating an Organization, which i have created the euphemistic-metaphor “BlACK-to-Africa”. The Mission of this organization will provide
African-Americans who wish to return to their native homeland of Africa, an expense free, method to do so. This method entails a, one-way ticket abroad my families luxury freight liner, free food and drinks. Before I Invest in this endeavor, I’d like to know if this is entitles me to forgiveness for the actions of my previous
generations and would you, African-Americans, take advantage of this Generous Courtesy? Please do not take this as an Insult, I’ve had
a upbringing different from most and sometimes find that I am out of touch with social exactitude. If this is not the correct way to remedy
this mistake, please educate me on how this could be accomplished.

Sir Charles Worthington V
London, United Kingdom.

    Everyone came out of Africa. We are all related. 70,000 years ago, human population levels once dipped to a mere 2,000 and so we are all, for the most part, related to one another. That means, we are all black. We are all white. We are all part of each other.

    There is only one race: the human race.

    Here in the colonies govna

    We are all Americans

    It does not matter where our elders came from, or how they got here

    If you base your finding on songs written by sub culture of uneducated people

    Then you will come to an uneducated conclusion every time.

    Dude, America is my native homeland. Nice to know that Hip Hop is listened to so well across the pond.

    CHEERIO!!! PIP PIP AND ALL THAT.

    I am not from Africa and your idiotic attempt is humorless to say the least. Go back under that rock you crawled from. We don’t need no pity from you because the Most High will correct the past.

    Know one wants to go to Africa.

    This country is just as much Black as it is White.

    Blacks are not mad about that.

    They are mad about WHAT slavery CAUSED.

    It caused POVERTY, COLORISM, RACISM, and ****.

    These things are hard to get rid of.

    They are also mad about the stereotypes that have been made about them.

    YOU NEED TO CHILL.

    im not black nor american but still there ain’t nothing u can do, u cant help what ur ancestors did.

    And you know, african americans do know what an air plane is and I dont think many african americans would like to move to Africa, their home country is America and they are not less Americans than Irish-Americans or other white americans, my friend, u got me?

    so with other words: African Americans are proud AMERICANS!!

    And stay out of the weed, Sir Charles Worthington V.

    Peace.
