I. Starvation
II. Selling each other into slavery.
III. Hacking each other into bits with machetes.

I would, too. I'm old enough so that my History education concentrated on important civilizations (Greeks, Romans, etc), important eras (Dark Ages, Renaissance, etc.), and the now discredited Western "white guys" (like George Washington, Ben Franklin, etc.)
There were dark skinned people in the lessons (esp. in this country - Douglas, Booker T., G. W. Carver, etc.)

It might be my age and education, but I don't know of an era or civilization where world history was changed by a group united only by their skin color.

"I would love to see the curriculum."
According to one Hegel (rather well known German philosopher of mid-19 century), "history did not take place in Africa". Thus in Hegelian terms the curriculum would have to be rich in fiction.
