And, not too long from now, another descendant of "Zamunda" is about to bring something new in America, something called, "colorless Government."

Life without black people.
by Sir Vincent

---

Life without black people  is a story told about a group of white people who were fed up with African Americans, so they joined together and wished themselves away . They passed through a deep dark tunnel and emerged in sort of a twilight zone where there was America without black people . At first these white people breathed a sigh of relief. At last, they said, no more crime, drugs, violence and welfare . All of the blacks have gone! Then suddenly, reality set in . The 'NEW AMERICA ' is not America at all-only a barren land . 1 . There are very few crops that have flourished because the nation was built on a slave-supported system . 2 . There are no cities with tall skyscrapers because Alexander Mils, a black man, invented the elevator, and without it, one finds great difficulty reaching higher floors . 3 . There are few if any cars because Richard Spikes, a black man, invented the automatic gearshift, Joseph Gambol, also black, invented the Super Charge System for Internal Combustion Engines, and Garrett A . Morgan, a black man, invented the traffic signals . 4 . Furthermore, one could not use the rapid transit system because its procurer was the electric trolley, which was invented by another black man, Albert R . Robinson . 5 . Even if there were streets on which cars and a rapid transit system could operate, they were cluttered with paper because an African American, Charles Brooks, invented the street sweeper . 6 . There were few if any newspapers, magazines and books because John Love invented the pencil sharpener, William Purveys invented the fountain pen, and Lee Barrage invented the Type Writing Machine and W . A . Love invented the Advanced Printing Press . They were all, you guessed it, Black . 7 . Even if Americans could write their letters, articles and books, they would not have been transported by mail because William Barry invented the Postmarking and Canceling Machine, William Purveys invented the Hand Stamp and Philip Downing invented the Letter Drop . 8 . The lawns were brown and wilted because Joseph Smith invented the Lawn Sprinkler and John Burr the Lawn Mower . 9 . When they entered their homes, they found them to be poorly ventilated and poorly heated . You see, Frederick Jones invented the Air Conditioner and Alice Parker the Heating Furnace . Their homes were also dim . But of course, Lewis Lattimer later invented the Electric Lamp, Michael Harvey invented the lantern,and Granville T . Woods invented the Automatic Cut off Switch . Their homes were also filthy because Thomas W . Steward invented the Mop and Lloyd P . Ray the Dust Pan . 10 . Their children met them at the door-barefooted, shabby, motley and unkempt . But what could one expect? Jan E . Matzelinger invented the Shoe Lasting Machine,Walter Sammons invented the Comb, Sarah Boone invented the Ironing Board, and George T . Samon invented the Clothes Dryer . 11 . Finally, they were resigned to at least have dinner amidst all of this turmoil . But here again, the food had spoiled because another Black Man, John Standard invented the refrigerator . Now, isn't that something? What would this country be like without the contributions of Black people. Martin Luther King, Jr . said, 'by the time we leave for work, Americans have depended on the inventions from the minds of Blacks people. PLEASE SHARE this information with everyone wishing to learn more about black people, the descendants of "Zamunda."   And, not too long from now, another descendant of "Zamunda" is about to bring something new in America, something called, "colorless Government."   It is only Forty-seven years ago, when Obama's father and I arrived in this country from our villages in Western Kenya looking for something called higher education. With the guidance of one great American lady called Cora Weiss, we were able to get adjusted to a culture that had little in common with the one we had just left behind. We were introduced to people who looked like us but talked funny. We even met and danced with girls from Hunter College, girls who did not look like the ones we were used to, but still, looked attractive to the eye. We were somehow afraid of the discriminating people with whom we were surrounded.     All of a sudden, we found what we had come for and a little more, We got used to associating with some ladies who did not quite look like us. We married some of them. One of those ladies became  mother of the young man who grew up wanting to sit into a chair once belonged to a distant descendant of Zamunda, Abraham Lincoln and now belonging to my man, George. For sure, we look like people who have got something! (Khufwananga abanyoye esindu)   Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Watch the latest videos on YouTube.com
