Baggage is thrown out but still the plane's altitude continues to

this folks but in order to save the majority we are going to have to
start off-loading some passengers. The only fair way is to do this
Alphabetically, so we'll start with the letter 'A'".
"Africans? Are there any Africans on board?"There was no answer so the
pilot calls, "Black people, are there any black people on board?"
Again silence..
" C - coloured people? Are there any coloured people on board?"
Still there is silence. A little black boy sitting near the rear of
the plane turned to his mother and said, "Mum, ain't we African? Ain't
