Despite million-dollar salaries and near worship by millions of white sports fans, black basketball players express hostility towards whites. Many dread just walking the streets in a society that threatens “black bodies.” What can be done to cool it?

The league should play the next season in sub-Sahara Africa. They would avoid accommodations favored by foreigners in favor of small guest houses in slums such as Hillbrow and Berea. There would be some inconveniences for these millionaire black Americans returning to their ancestral lands. It will be important for these young men to dodge venereal diseases since sub-Saharan Africa leads the world in them. If sickness does strike, practitioners of African “traditional medicine” can cure the athletes.

Yes, there will be some crime — sky-high in many areas — but armed soldiers can accompany these wealthy Americans 24/7 and also guard their belongings when they are out shooting hoops. The guides can help them navigate encounters with local police and petty functionaries demanding payoffs for no reason whatsoever. However, African law-enforcement will not randomly shoot the athletes just for being people of color. Black lives really do matter in Africa!

These champions of blackness can experience other joys of post-colonial Africa. The trip may take extra time by American standards, especially if the athletes are attacked by bandits or kidnapped by Muslim extremists, but it will surely offer insights into the wonders of modern African transport.

This may help the millionaires better appreciate the “white way” of running society. America’s toxic whiteness and structural racism will remain, the police still feared for their anti-black predations, but black athletes may discover an appreciation for American plumbing, a functioning electrical grid, and an orderly transportation system.
