that all true but why Africa why not here we got water issue in flint starving kid all over the usafrom what i can tell, floyd's donated more money than a lot of people in the thread are ever going to make.
that said, he wasn't very classy in the interview. "what has africa done for me?" dude, do you need the help?
kids in rural, poor africa sometimes have to walk several miles just to get clean water. he clearly doesn't udnerstnad that charity is need based if he thinks he's entitled to something from africa in exhcange for helping out people who literally ahve to walk 3 miles to get a drink of water.Comment

I agree with Floyd. What has Africa done for anybody? They sent all of their rotten apples to the Americas through the middle passage and look what happened.
Africa should pay North and South America reparations!Comment

you sound like a misguided elementary kid having not been taught politics and colonization....and progression...civil rights...aftermaths...status quos...
or as Floyd would put it, "c'mon now...that's basic common sense.."Comment

lets be real...he has a point
He is an american. the united states has our own issues.
police brutality, unemployment, racial discretions, poverty, etc.
His family and everyone he cares for is in this country.
Like my mom always said ," you take care of you and your home first, then you can help those outside of it"
so called african americans dont owe africa anything....do you say irish american...chinese american? He is simply an american.
I cant tell you who my people are in africa just like a european descendent cant tell you much about their people in ireland, england, because they never visited or lived there but I do know my people here. they are Mvskoke and Cherokee. Grew up with them, around them, lived the culture, etc.
an african american is a person from africa who BECAME an american citizen. Mayweather is a natural born US citizen and has no connection to africa like most people of color in america.
Why go across the world trying to help people, when people need help down the street
he does a lot of charitable work, and doesnt care if is recognized or not
its not like africans are making it a point to help descendents of africans here.
thats whats wrong with some americans.....they want their hand in everything outside america but wont stick their hand in their own jar to improve things hereComment

bro...you sound ****** as hell
the US only recieved 5% of the africans who arrived in this hemisphere. Most went to the caribbean and south america.
thats why many have retained their african customs.
they claim 15- 20 million africans were brought to the western hemisphere.....5% is 1 million or less africans...many died on the way, and others intermarried with natives and others who were already here..you do realize we have 42 million people who identify as "african american" and othe people of color who identify as other, native american, bi racial or mult racial. that would be over 50 million people. Many who dont know native americans and blacks were all labled negro...either you were white, negro, or mulatto(white mixed with negro)
that is some screwed up math. so 50 million people popped out of no where, all the so called indians disappeared through disease, warfare and everyone of color is because of slavery? bro you need to really read more.
africans, native americans have been intermingling, trading and mating thousands of years bro.
most of the so called african americans are descendents of people that were already here or traveled here before european exploration.
how the europeans learn how to get here? Africans gave them the knowledge of astrology, nautical skills, and navigational skills required to make the trip. Most had Moorish(black) navigators....duh....they knew where they were going.Comment
