Why do people get mad over what other countries did to africa in the past but..?

Not about what other africans are doing to africa now.

A lot of black people are reposting stuff about how we shouldnt support france because they are apparently still taxing african countries. I looked this up and the only sites that posted it were those "pro-black" sites and litterally no where else. I mean maybe they are but i dont think this information is correct.

But people post all about that stuff that happened hundreds of years ago...but never post about what going on now. Such as corrupt african government's, afircans enslaving and killing their own people, and the african terrorist groups. Why

Update:

And what's more, why do a lot of these people ONLY post about it and never actually do anything to help

    1. What happened in African countries were less than 60 years ago

    2. Most of the civil wars that happened in African countries and the civil wars that go on today is because of what the Europen did...

    3. Look up the Berlin-Conferance. European nations gathered togheter, and they found out a way to divide Africa, while they stole their resources.. It still goes on today

    4. European countries aswell as asian nations DUMP their toxic waste in oceans, which leads to Africans getting many sorts of diseases

    5. European nations STEAL resources from African countries.

    Because, y'know, "the man" is the only person that has ever done anything bad with Africa. No black dude ever sold another black dude or threw another under a bus or, y'know, exterminated an entire culture or tribe because their women didn't "give it up" or for some "shiny metal things."

    They are no better. In fact, currently, they are worse. But "the man" is a flag of convenience to avoid taking any sort of responsibility or showing any empathy.
