this too. I just know that in places like Frances where Black Americans are treated better than Africans its partly due to Africans being dependent on government aid. but the fact that we are seen are Artistic and Cool helps too.
oh yea, man france we were treated better than white americans. granted my mom speaks fluent french and they were like
I remember the tour guide dude gave us a free bottle of wine, them cacs were SOUR
They kept talking about jazz and my dad is from NOLA. they were superrrrrr star struck. shyt was crazy lol. I didnt even know AAs found refuge in Paris after WW2, I was young those days and learned all that shyt. Anita Baker and all them. France was head over heels for AAs. and a lot of jazz musicians up and left for France.
people be like "the french are super racist" I be like "to whom
" Im not saying we are better than africans, but lets be honest, in some places americans, brits are treated better than russians, and in some places japanese are treated better than chinese. we just so happen to get treated better, a lot of people, even africans themselves, respect the civil rights movement and artistic expression that emerged from the struggles (soul, hiphop etc). even the africans that try to project a superiority complex like somalis, they're on this site, bet they got a bunch of AA IG models on their HD, but you dont see any AAs on somali.net.
I try to tell folks about social complexities, but its useless trying to teach youngins whom themselves havent ventured out into the world and have a world view based off cac media. never ending battle.
