Most of these posts are by moron racists! This is supposed to be a politics board. No fucking wonder caucasians seem to be on the decline. The same old pattern seems to be holding true. The strong build something, and their weak, spoiled children who believe they are entitled to the same position lose it.
Hey boys: put down the beer, turn off the NASCAR, take your little dick out of your sister, and do something productive.

Dude...ahem...
The preeminence of groups of people, races, civilizations, and nations(our current concept being a 19th century development) wax and wane over time. When the first major civilizations, the precursors to the advent of the Greeks and our Great Western Civilization came into being, some over ten millennia ago in the middle east and northwestern Africa, many of them were black or had significant black populations who made important contributions. The Ethiopians, Egyptians, Carthaginians, and the Persians were all at least, shall we say, part black, and some, sometimes, were led by blacks. As far as literature is concerned, the dearth can also be understood as a consequence of the waxing and waning, and the development of the very technologies of writing and printing. Still, there have been many impressive Black American writers who may one day be considered to be great. The fact is, our countries paltry 230 year history doesn't leave much to work with without being arrogant. And even considering the whole of the Western body of literature; who knows what has been lost? Who knows what burned at Alexandria? In short, your realizations are based on a rather narrow perspective. I commend you for reading. It is a habit of an open mind. Just as making judgments is indicative of a closed mind.
