Totally apropos of nothing, this is the senior leadership at Africom right now.
…
An arm of the US military is run by US Military staff.
I’m shocked. Shocked! If it was ran by LITERAL African Americans, it would make a huge amount of difference, because as we all know, enlisted military staff are extremely well versed in the current culture, norms and goals of modern countries that are in the same continent as their ancestors whose culture and background were erased as they were bought over to the US during the slave trade.




















IDK, you seem to know, why don’t you inform us?
Racism.
The problem is a lack of having black people ascend to this type of rank. I don’t expect any of the US military to match the culture of the people they are running their bases out of. Donnell Rawlings worked as military police in korea, last time I checked he’s not Korean, he’s black. You think he’d adapt way better if he was working out of Mogadishu?
