Approximately 40 million people were harvested from Africa --stolen into 500 years of night. Mother Africa would populate the Americas with her sons and daughters in the millions. Nations and civilization would be built on their backs, their bodies now lie in the unmarked annals of history.

There are no words to describe the plight of entire civilizations of people forced out of their home into an alien New World . There are no words to describe the dehumanization experienced at the hands of European and Arab enslavers. There are no words to describe the anger and frustration as these same people continually rewrite and re-interpret African history to suit their interest in a sour attempt to alleviate their guilt. Worst still is the evil ingenuity, which reverses accountability and makes the victims responsible for their own Holocaust. And ironically, it is Africans who are made to bear embarrassment for telling their own story. If justice is an inalienable right for all humanity then those millions upon millions who died deserve to be remembered and those who murdered, brutalized and betrayed them must be called into historical account. It is not to make others feel bad, but part of the process of telling the truth; a truth washed away in stolen history and cultural domination. If the ancestors of some Arabs, Turks, Europeans, and some Africans were participants in the destruction of African civilizations then it is not sensible for fear of offending to avoid these topics. In addition, it is equally not fair for the victims' descendants, to apply the same "racism in reverse." It is about a dialogue to heal the wounds and the bitterness.
