  Nice article. Cannot all of us, including these players see that after all there are two types of monkeys- black and white? In fact most monkeys have faces of whites especially when they are born- true or false?

  It is only when the Negro can prove to the presidents and prime ministers of countries the discriminate against us assault and at times kill us that we also have a weapon to protect ourselves before they will respect us. If the white nations realize that we can also use real threats to bring order, there will be order in this world.
  When a person was insulted by another one he tore his dress and when Saddam Hussein insulted Bush he was killed and his whole country occupied from 2003 to date. Kwame Nkrumah was overthrown for writing Neocolonialism the Highest Last Stage of Imperialism. Martin Luther King was murdered for requesting for his human rights. He did not threw a banana peal at anyone.
  The problem of racism still continues because white and Arab nations are unable to manage their own people and it is just an act of irresponsibility on their part.
  Why there is no case in the jungle in Accra that a group of Negroes come across a white man at the Black Star Square and give order that the white man should be killed. The question to ask the the leaders of those white nations is that do they see or hear something from the African jungle.

  Yes nice article but there is no formula to reacting to circumstances like these. You react on impulse and as an afterthought might explain why you did what. Kevin Boateng's reaction was not wrong neither was that of young black Jozy Altidore. When Hitler boycotted Jeese Owens and refused to give him his medal that was not an acceptable behaviour either. In the face of provocation it might be stupid to remain calm without showing your emotion. Remain stoic and you still are a monkey who cannot think or have feelings. Everyone must react the way they feel best at the moment. My priest told me a joke just a few days ago. A boy came from school and told his father about the theory of evolution which he had been taught at school that day. In the end he asked the father if they are really descended from the ape. The father answered him "you might have be but I did not". We blacks should get rid of this inferiority complex and bloosom like the roses that we are.
