    This man describes the mind of an immigrant from a 3rd world country very well. I know exactly what he means and it resonates… not all as experiences are different but growing up in Haiti I feel it!

      what you don't understand is that God works from within...we were made in Gods image....the soul can either be influenced by the holy spirit (God) or satan...if you're aligned with God's frequency within + focused on projected future, you'll eventually get to where you see yourself. You're thoughts are not always your thoughts...God can project thoughts within you...and seize control....just think, from inception, God breathed life into us....if you understand the concept painted in ancient texts, you'll see where I'm coming from. First thing is first though, you need to understand that we are spiritual beings living a flesh based existence.@@raston_

      @@koryburdet1317 I would think ppl have it just a tad bit worse in Africa than people living here in America without the racism. People in America do not flee to the continent of Africa in search of betterment of life. if African people didn’t believe that grass is greener here in USA they’d stay and make a life for themselves there in Africa. imo racism is the last thing on their minds they have to do what Americans citizens do to survive. No different if an American (with some money) went to Africa to make a new living they’d have to adapt, learn a whole new culture, language etc but the chances of Americans doing that are slim to none
