Why do The Amara look down on Oromos and other African tribes from Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, The Congo, South Africa?

Oromos or as The Amara call them Galla have invaded The Aksumite Kingdom in 1530. The Oromos have made history. They invaded a territory and conquered it. From the point of The Oromos or any historian, this is nothing wrong. But in Ethiopia, the Amara tribe has been presenting the Oromo or Galla as savage. Until recently, I have been anti-Oromo due to the invasion and expansion of The Oromo into Abysinia or current day Ethopia as taught to all Ethiopian children in schools controlled by Amara.
The Oromo occupied 80% of current day Ethiopia and Eritrea. They also occupied parts of Sudan. As they were nomads or pastoralists, they could not install effective administration and were defeated by Amara war lords, The Oromo population was enslaved by the Amara people. Colonel Mengistu Haile Mariam stopped the subjugation of Oromos by Amara after Haile Selassie was overthrown and imprisoned in 1974. The Amara treated Oromos as subhumans and were talking about pan-africanism infiltrating Jamaica and other countries forming Rasta movement, which believes in Haile Selassie as The Son of God.
In general Ethiopia Amara tribe look down upon Blacks. This should be exposed and condemned. We need to support Oromo struggle to get their right to existence as community without oppression by Amara people.
