Would blacks be better off had they never come into contact with Europeans/whites?

I'm not the only one to point out how little there is to say, in a certain away, about the Haiti quake. Well when i heard about the Haiti diaster and saw the amazing pictures of the Nation ruined infastructure, the first thing i thought about was Jermiah Wright, that brutish rogue. That demogauge is retired, living in his huge house in, of all places, a all white private community by the name of Beverly, Illinois. (He tells the poor south side blacks to hate whites sunday morning and rolls back to his all white community in his Benz, laughing the whole way.) I imagined that Rev. Wright was surely kicking back at his Beverly pad and watching the cable coverage of the Hiati quake=probably taking a brief break from writing the book Random House or some other publishing house has quitely paid him to write. And i thought what would Jermiah Wright be thinking as he reclined in his lay-z-boy and watched the destruction of the Hiatian countryside and saw white Americans handing out aid, food, operating on injured Haitians, etc. Wright has been saying for decades that blacks would be better just getting away from the sinister whites, how could he reconcile that with what we all saw in Haiti? His matra as a preacher was that "white people's greed keeps a world in a need", whites, in his estimation, where at the root of the genocide, disease, misery, poverty, violence, strife and famine that blighted the Third World. How does Rev. Wright and his many disciples of anti-white stylied black liberation theology sqaure there assertion that blacks are better off when whites aren't around to oppress and exsploit them with the fact that those African nations that have isolated themselves from the western world have only been worse off as a result?

In a way, Rev. Wright's beliefs about how whites have only held blacks down and that if white europeans had just steered clear of the motherland then Africans would be far better off today. This, of course, is a nice thing to believe. We want to believe that people are not ever constrained by biology and ofcourse that we are all equal. It would make sense as an exsplanation of the success and fanfare of Rev. Wright among South Side blacks that his popularity among his flock at Trinity Church of Christ is as someone who every Sunday tells pews full of black people that 1. black poverty and underachievment is not there fault but white's fault. Basically Wright, craft was to tell his congregation reassuring, comforting lies on a consitent basis and in a entertaining and fiery manner. From this angle, the modern black Sunday church exsperience is a excercise in communal self esteem boosting.

Of course though Rev. Wright is wrong/lying. Blacks have benefitted beyond imagination from contact, however coarse, with Europeans. This doesn't excuse slavery or brutality in Europe's African colonies, but, overall, Africa is far far better off today as a result of the Europe's time in Africa. Let's be honest here, however reductionist, the British and the Boers arrivived at the southern tip of a African contient that was still emmersed in the Stone Age-this at a time when Europe's had long passed the renassaince, the reformation, and where sailing around the earth, building castles and cannons while the Africans where largely living as primitive savages, half naked, living in mudhuts and hunting tigers with spears. The Boers where dressed in suites and top hats, with monocles and wool vests and bow ties. Take this instance from 1896, a group of Boers are trapped after there train breaks down in the middle of the Zulu nation. It didn't take very long for Zulu warriors, clad in little more than animal skin and leather covering there crotches, spotted these white Boers and charged towards the group of Boer families with spears in hand by the hundreds from almost every direction. The Boer's are doomed right? No, because those dutch/scottish/hugenot Boers had a new weapon with them a millenium beyond the techonolgy of the Zulu's spears. They had the Maxim gun, the first rapid fire machine gun, a product of us whites conniving, sinister minds. The Maxim Gun was helping the British conquering Africa from the North in the Sudan at the same time the Boers where doing the same in the south of the contitent. So, one of the boers brught out the Maxim Gun and with shocking ease gunned down the radius of charging Zulu warriors, there speed, agility and endurance meaning nothing in the face of the machine that the Teutonic mind has produced.
To put it tersely, Europeans came to a contient that was essentially a stone age jungle and left it with locomotives, railroads, hospitals, modern archeture, Unviersitys, water fountains, planes, cars, medicine, pencillen, polio vaccine, vaccines for thousands of other human plagues, and alot of other shit- no to mention all the trillions of dollars we, in the west, have given the African contient. Oh but you say, "what about all the Africans that the Europeans killed?" Untrue. The Europeans doubled the life exspectancy in decades in Africa?
