I came across this article and I admire it. It shows me names and faces of great men and women I didn't know had African blood and descent. Some have impacted their world in African soil while others, off the shores of Africa.

You almost had me until around #3:

Robert Mugabe

You must be out of your mind to call a murderous dictator "greatest of all time".

  I agree but we all have our dark side because even some of the guys you thumb for have their dark secrets. Lol so read on to see some of your best choice.

By the way, I didn't know Walter Rodney, the writer of How Europe Underdeveloped Africa has an African Blood.

...... What fucking news source is this.....and it's not even a real news source, it's just some random blog spam by some guy.

If this list was like -- "Most influential" or "Most Powerful" I'd understand putting some putting people like this on here. This list also includes Bill Cosby at number 66. Is this like a super old list or is this person just fine with Cosby doing what he did?

I wouldn't explain killing (Mugabe) and raping (Cosby) as the greatest Africans of all time. Sigh.

Seems like the quotes got messed up here, but then I totally get it for some of the people on this list if we're using 2004. No one knew in 2004 that Cosby was a piece of ship rapist. Then again though, we did know that Mugabe was a piece of shit murderous dictator in 2004.

Maybe some people just didn't want to accept it at that point though, they were happier just lying to themselves and saying that all was well. Weird though, there's so many other people in society worthy of praise (yes even in 2004) that should've went before a murderous dictator.

History shows that sometimes those bloody dictators do in fact help develop their countries. I think Mugabe did in the beginning. Isn't Gaddafi in there too? Doesn't mean you have to like them or anything. You can see a similar trend elsewhere, South Korea for example. During the cold war, many dictators were supported by both superpowers. Human rights be damned.
