"Today’s waves of African migration are merely a prelude. Of the 2.2bn citizens added to the global population by 2050, 1.3bn will be Africans—about the size of China’s population today. And more of them will have the means to travel. Those Africans risking the trip north across the Mediterranean today are not the poorest, but those with a mobile phone to organise the trip and money to pay smugglers. Few of the Nigerians who attempt the crossing are from their country’s poor north, for example; almost all are from its wealthier south. As African countries gradually prosper, migration will surely increase, not decrease. Emmanuel Macron raised these points in a recent interview. The French president was recommending a new book, “The Rush to Europe”, published in French by Stephen Smith of Duke University, which models past international migrations like that of Mexicans into America to show that the number of Afro-Europeans (Europeans with African roots) could rise from 9m at present to between 150m and 200m by 2050, perhaps a quarter of Europe’s total population."
"Like it or not, Eurafrica is part of Europe’s demographic and cultural destiny. It is better, surely, not to ignore or reject this but to work out how to make it a success."

So... what say you, WR? How does everyone feel about the Africanisation of Europe? If Europe does have an African population of between 150 - 200 million by 2050, what do you think that will mean for Europe? How will it change it? Do you see any benefits, or negatives?
I'd especially like to hear from WR's left-wing posters, who always mock WR's right-wing posters for warning about this kind of thing happening. This article is from The Economist - a mainstream outlet - now promoting the massive flooding of Europe, by African immigrants.
Also keep in mind, this is just African immigrants. There are also large amounts of migration from the middle-east, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc etc into Europe.
