  2. There’s no history anymore. It’s history of history. If someone says something different about the past later, they repeat that “later” and don’t dare looking at the source.

  12. Why do you think this drivel made it to the channel and not what blacks really were doing in Africa, which is just killing each other, eating them or selling their captures as slaves to Arabs. Just because you don’t know this doesn’t mean others don’t.
