Black people in countries in africa treat each other very badly. I dont know what exactly it is; blacks just dont have it in them to treat one another humanely and not like animals. Blacks cannot govern them selves nor do they value their lives it seems, if america was run by blacks it would be just as worse over here as it is in africa sad to say.

@veeseee128 The harrowing experiences you see in the video is a legacy from colonization. The prison system was introduced into Africa by Europeans and has pretty much remained in the same state since its inception on the continent. In fact attempts to build better prisons are seen as repressive action by many democratic/human rights advocacy groups. At same time the so called development partners dont have penal systems on the agenda and discourage heavy investments in the sector.

this video seems really racist there r plenty ofb white people on death row also. I still believe that we have no right to play god. Also its not teaching a lesson to the public. it say's its ok for the state to commit murder. "THATS RIGHT I SAID MURDER" but if we the people down below do it we get life or execution. This is my opinion. Don't bother commenting on this cause they won't be read..

@MalevolentxMaiden : 1) this video is meant for an African audience and hence the use of African people in the video. 2) Conditions in African prisons are appalling...death row is worse. What we seek at is this point is humane treatment and then the dialogue on ending death penalty can be addressed immediately.

What is with the rascist comments? These are human biengs! And internet rascism has to be the most pathetic display of human behavior ever!

Thou Shall Not Kill........ that means for anything death row is wrong no one has the right to say who lives or dies.

@veeseee128 hallow obama aint white stupid......not ery1z the same so get some books and broaden ur mind stupid

@grandtheftauto5588 Self defense is just that, no one premeditates self defense. And I agree if your killing innocent people you should do time, hard time but two wrongs doesnt makea right. Military, government, all garbage. I dont believe in war and to b real a lot of soilders that fight regret doing it, so they kicking their own ass.

[grandtheftauto5588]

@SuperTzone you could also use that argument to say that the military and self-defense is wrong. death row is better than letting them out in a few years for good behavior

I think that just because you have done somthing wrong does not mean that a life should be put to a stop.

@kwatequartey U cannot blame the whiteman for all the problems of blacks. YES they are to blame for a lot of the problems of blacks but not all. Black people are their own worse enemy. We keep one another down. jealous and afraid one will get more than the other; The slave mentality. I agree the way we were raised and the environment we came up in has a lot to do with our unfortunate circumstance of poverty but poverty can be conquered.

how can anyone sleep like that. you see that? ; feet all up in their faces. laying on one another like dead bodies in a mass grave. Thats how it is in african jails for blacks; there is so much overcrowding
