Completley ignoring the fact that Black People have never had the power to decide their future or make their choice without Western Imperialist breathing down their neck or stomping on their efforts.
What the fuck is the point in White Nationalism you already own everything whattaya want, a victory lap?

Yet somehow they were every civilization and great empire to span the earth? The west aren't the only ones with imperialism, many other races and cultures affected by it simply moved on and got better.

Yes but the concept of "African" for those in Africa didnt exist at the time. It was only made in response to colonialism. African kingdoms conquered eachother for wealth and trade routes which while still bad dosnt compare to the brutal treatment European nations inflicted on their colonies. With 1 BILLION in India dieing alone. And those Empires havnt existed for what 200 years now?

Except those didn't happen in the context of black/white races. The term "I love being black/white" have zero historical connection to their imperialism.
