I don’t think anyone is arguing that on a global scale though colonial/Western powers did decimate Africa and continue to actively prevent its advancement via neocolonialism there.
But if we’re talking about American history then we need to be transparent about the fact that this was an apartheid state until about half a century ago and the consequences of that reverberate to the present day.
Black people don’t own the patent on suffering, sorry. Plenty of other races and people’s have had a bad time, often at the hands of overlords.

Yeah, and which races are STILL suffering the consequences of that very recent bad time in USA?
