She's gorgeous 
African chick who has lived in the US for 10 years asks whether she can speak on black issues that affect her in the US. FBA say no!

I could get a little extensive with an explanation but I guess what it all comes down to is if what she would say would be a benefit to the people. If it isn't then present a reasonable argument of your own and not one of the opposition laced with malevolent rhetoric and dog whistles.

@ asking for permissionNotice that the first thing African women want to talk about is colorism and “featurism”
These broads are the main ones online trying to call FBA women multiracial and try to say that they are not Black.
They were at one points saying Lori Harvey is not Black.
They are the main divestors.

I don’t argue with niqqas on the Internet anymore
Perhaps but every time non blacks hype themselves up over “black degeneracy” it’s always a token non black american going like “you mean black American degeneracy not Africans”
What does she want to speak about ? She herself said she wasn’t black
I had to solo some racist Palestinian supporters today and this happened

She’s a tether it’s not “internal” laundry.
Texturism, featurism, colorism... that's a direct quote...

Yeah, I don't understand it. It's much better to be united than divided. Unsure when this got amplified on social media, but it feels dumb to have this out in public spaces because we all know non-black people monitor our spaces

Her first mistake was falling for (or embracing) the"you not black, you african" bullshyt
"You not white, you Lithuanian"
"You not latina, you Salvadorian"
^ Things you will never hear a white or hispanic person saying
The statement is problematic but the concept isn't
Being a black American your take on race and class will likely be different from an African that likely had a very white washed view of America
We grow up learning we were slaves, we learn about the fight for civil rights, jim crow south and modern day discrimination
Most of us grew up seeing racism, even in minute ways that only we would notice
A latina from Salvador or a white from Lithuania will not carry that same burden because they were not slaves here and they do not deal with the same set of struggles and burden that comes with being black here
It's not that simple, our relationship with America is much more nuanced than other races
Ofcourse there is going to be an identity that comes with being black here, so when someone says you're not black you're African
They really mean you don't understand our pov
That's why it's a false equivalence to me
Mannnn time out.... how the fukk are yall on here EVERYDAY to talk about various issues you have NO stake in, but tryna police what others say???
Is it cause she's on a smartphone and revealed herself?!
nobody is trying to police her … I just can’t understand why somebody wants to speak for a completely different group of people that they are not
