Good speech.
Be glad that you didn't come as "farm animals" bereft of even deserving treatment as humans.
What ever narrative Indians can develop to paint themselves as victims Africans can go further. The humiliation of the Transatlantic slave trade and its aftermath has no parallel in the Americas.

Bro, you should get over it. It is killing you, slowly. You can not see it, but those of us who read you every day can sense your sufferings.

Is really sad that at ur age you have so much bitterness.
