Truth is, I've heard a ton of TBA and he just doesn't know enough about african history or its affairs.

To declare that africa has no return home policy like isreal when Ghana has had a right to abode policy for the past 20 plus years is just exposing how uninformed he is. Then he suggest any policy has "huge loopholes" when all the Ghana right to abode policy say is, be over the age of 18, have a source of income, and don't be someone who broke out of jail, if that is the case you can set up shop in ghana. And I personally know entire families who have done so and I am currently stacking money to do so myself.

Many misrepresent pan africanism as a back to africa movement and that is not what it was. Setting up shop in an african country is simply benefiting from the resources from your homeland as all other immigrants who set up shop in the black community has done. We are getting our ass kicked in business because while Hispanics indians and Asians come over here and sell toothpaste for a dollar we have to sell toothpaste for 4 dollars because we manufacture here in this expensive ass land. Hell the companies like walgreens Walmart etc ship there business over seas too. Turn over any product in your home it's made in China. We losing trying to be all about america.

TbA don't know enough about african history and instead of admitting that, he shuns topics he is misinformed about. It's why he doesn't like historical debates, why he throws shade on pan african ideology and what's worst is the audacity to speak like c00ning is isolated to the african continent as if the vast majority of blacks here in america is not on some c00n shyt?

It's c00n and conscious on all lands occupied by us, that is what happens when you are subjected to an oppressive system that dominates us economically politically and socially and eradicate our ability to maximize our earning potential and own our talents and be equal competitors in the open market. We in america really can't speak entitled and speak down on any other people anywhere not when we in america c00ning like we are.

The English are a consolidation of multiple recent ethnic groups. The Hausa are not. The English were not tribal after the consolidation so why would we?

The Hausa actually are! The Hausa language has slowly swallowed other Afro-Asiatic Chadic speakers in what is now Northern Nigeria for centuries. Moreover, the Hausa were consolidated in the Sokoto Caliphate prior to the British conquest from 1902-1903.

Honestly it'd be dope if we talked "Clans" instead of tribes. Tribe is a very colonial term because it referred to communities that were different from the main society., which is what the cacs used to see themselves back then; the main society (never mind that they were a minority and not even native to the land).

The only Africans who I know use the clan label are Somalis but the semantics are not really important to what I'm getting at...

On the Balkans/Former Yugoslavia - Various ethnic groups groups have been chopping each other up for centuries. When the Ottoman Empire began to fall apart, they fell on each other (and the Turks) in a massive bloodletting over 100 years ago. It heated up again when the Yugoslav state fell apart too.

But I'm pretty sure they all consider themselves black...

If they did then why aren't they explicitly stating it?

A lot of times when implied "blackness" is placed upon the African he refuses to accept it and yells out a tribe or country

Imagine a blonde haired, blue eyed devil white person saying: I'm not white i'm swedish!

C'mon fam. I said recent for a reason because I knew you'd pull the "Afro-Asiatic" stuff like it wasn't during ancient times.

The Hausa are still swallowing up other Chadic ethnic groups. The process has actually accelerated has these other languages/ethnicities are now calling themselves "Hausa".

This is some lala land shyt :russ:
And yet no counter.

You got Islamic ass Zanzibar and Christian Tanganyika... Two areas with totally different ethnic groups working together to successful form "Tanzania" since its independence.


The countries I listed for the most part curbed out tribalism.

HA!


So you're comparing "tension" over a few decades to decision making that lead to slavery, colonization and the inability to properly form nation states over a span of 100s of years :heh:

Yugoslavians were engaging in tribalism before the war. You trying to make their case different from Africans is futile. Not only that but people from that SAME AREA too were selling their own people to the Arabs lol!

Not only that but Native Americans too were engaging in tribalism. Hell, I was reading a book on how one of the Native tribes sided with the American government AGAINST the Gullahs and their Native allies. Lets not even get started with the Cherokees and the rest of those "civilized nation."

Face it your theory has some flaws.

"Swallowing up" or simply intermarriage? I don't see the similarity with consolidation by war which the leads to a nation. What nation with strong identity-formation have the Hausa spearheaded from this supposed consolidation?

Angola indulged in possible one of the DEADLIEST civil wars just to kick out Western infleunce in their country. Prior to that they whipped the Portugese to gain their independence. Definitely not c00ning.

Botswana is among the most stable economies in Africa. Not c00ning.

Somalia has been fighting Western powers since the 15th century and still is very anti-western. Not c00ning.

Tanzania just recently put a 190 billion tax on Western mining companies and constantly rejected the EPA. Not c00ning.

Your genetic c00ning theory for Africa has some flaws. Face it... I can give more examples.

Yall don't want it from Diasporan Royalty...
