Your comments are appreciated. I found this article while searching through the internet. I think us as black people whether Ghanian or American, or any other black race need to see this article and the comments as a wake up call. I really don't understand why Africa so readily accepts China as a "friend".  At least when the whites offer to help us half heartingly really want to help. I see people as that guy "Cote" in this article as just embarrising idiots. The writer of this article clearly looks to demonize and be-little Africans. Why do you guys put up with it?   If you want to see the article go here

I am a Chinese native living in the U.S. I have read the original by a Chinese reporter and would say the author did ok job by reporting the stories with some obvious biases.

Here is a good one written by a black businessman working and living in China:

"Black Like Me in China"

The first guy is just stupid..whatever he thinks he knows about Blacks or Africans... The American guy that wrote the second blog just reminds me what i used to hear mostly from black Americans...Somebody will say he is not black; he is "CHOCOLATE" or "BROWN" and some other shit. I  even have a lighter skin complexion than the guy.

check this out.  I suggest you all watch the entire video, it especially become relevant around the half way mark:

African people need to help themselves and stop relying on paternalism and charity with strings attached.  Without a doubt this is a complex issue that involves many factors.  But evidently we too participate in the trivialization and marginalization of our race, too.  It's a disgrace and becoming way too late in the day that it boils down to "half-hearted" from our historical enemy and "former" (smirking) masters and others who couldn't give less than a damn about black life.
