The Bible suggests that we are caretakers of the earth. In Genesis, Adam (the hebrew work for man) is told to dress the earth and keep it.
In the book Leviticus, there are several laws that say that we must let the earth have it's seasons. The law of the Jubilees is an ideal crop rotation schedule. The laws of the trees in that book also give practical ways to make sure that trees develop properly for fruit bearing.
In war, the nation of Israel is directed NOT to cut down fruit bearing trees in retribution on their enemies. In all ways, the Bible plainly tells us to be caretakers of the earth, not rapists.

The Bible was written thousands of years ago in the Roman Empire and the middle east. There were probably black people there, but the Bible does not make much mention of them. No one in the Bible was ever recorded on going to Africa either. But this does by no means suggest that God left them out. All people are able to accept God's free gift.
