Well, if you are not the one traded like cattle, it is rather easy to sit and talk all about rationality and pragmatism. I'm sure that if you go there and explain them the errors in their thinking and in their way of life they will be totally appreciative of that. I'm not african and I'm not even sure if my hypothesis is close to the truth, however, trying to make historical facts disappear because they are not pretty is not how it works. When talking about heritage in regard to the english language, don't forget that it is not their heritage or at least that their heritage is french and arabic as well.

> Well, if you are not the one traded like cattle, it is rather easy to sit and talk all about rationality and pragmatism. My ancestors were. Go back far enough in any populations geneaology, and you'll find something similar. > I'm not african and I'm not even sure if my hypothesis is close to the truth, however, trying to make historical facts disappear because they are not pretty is not how it works. Who advocated for that? No, seriously, where did you read that historical facts should be "disappeared"? > When talking about heritage in regard to the english language, don't forget that it is not their heritage or at least that their heritage is french and arabic as well. So? Having a heritage (and everyone's got one) doesn't mean that it's the most important thing to have, or preserve. I advocated that economic prosperity is a higher priority than conservative values. I don't know how anyone can disagree with that.
