Answer :

I am black woman and proud of it. First i don't concur with you on this. Yes a lot has been said about theblack people and Africa, but which country doesn't have corrupt individuals and self centered leaders. Every country has such people sorry to disappoint you on that. Again do not generalize people, that's an opinion you yourself hold. Not every African is greedy and selfish. It doesn't mean that if one orange is bad in a babask, it means all of them are  bad. Lets call a spade a spade and not a big spoon. Yes I agree corruption has become the main agenda in most countries, but we do have good leaders who are willing to do right for their citizens but because of the few who are out to benefit themselves, that's when you find greed setting in. We have had of corrupt individuals as well in the white community it could be they know how to keep their stuff amongst themselves and that's why you don't get to hear their stories outside and so you think all is well because you have heard nothing. So lets not paint a bad picture or point fingers we are all not perfect flaws are expected.
