Africans accuse African Americans of "appropriating" their culture (legitimate criticism?)

[Poitier]

African Americans dissing new Africans to the Country is no different than African Americans dissing each other when an African Americans would move from the Country in the South to the Cities in the North. Most of the time it was just light hearted kidding to let the Country person know that life and culture in the Northern cities is much different than life in the Country. Most Southerners in the USA and new people from Africa usually adjust to the new culture and everything is fine.

Africans probably do it to each other to when someone moves from a small village to a large City in Africa. You just poke fun at them to let them know that life is different in the big city and the big cities have different customs and culture.

So lets call it out for what it is instead of this poor attempt by @Poitier to make it bigger than what it is. I am willing bet the africans tweeting had less than favourable interaction with aa.

There were 100s maybe 1000s of these tweets so obviously its an issue that exist and needs to be discussed.

 

[Poitier]

Exactly. OP is an Africa hating moron, no different from the morons he is quoting. Negged the op for promoting more black disunity as he usually does

Op is a c00n is all. His opinion is the minority one, trust me

You're nothing but a disingenuous piece of shyt. Your c00ning is getting tiresome as well you sexually ambiguous cocksucking fudge packer .

but you are the one acting like you are full of estrogen

And do you consider America your country?

Too bad the police don't agree with you.....

Well glad to see you got a crystal ball swami. What the fukk do you know about my life? I see you're getting in all your feelings right now. Overall, I haven't had bad experiences with the police. So nice attempt. By the way, get the sand out your p*ssy bytch.

Fakkit wanna speak on my life's interactions with the police.

Music and dress are and can be cultural identifiers and if the woman is going to bring up African attire being worn by Aframs, why can't House music being made/listened to by Africans (an afram originated form) be mentioned?

Umm maybe because nobody in today's day and age identifies house music as being an AA thing.. Just do a quick google such of top house music DJs in the world at tell me what the average person looks like..

Its nonsense for @Poitier to try and claim this... But again its @Poitier so I expect nothing less

 

[Yup]

So your a totally different person online?

This is your online persona?

Nope you make assumption that i hate black men when i am just criticizing the things yall do.

Yes, because you don't identify House as AA music when it was crafted in midwest urban centers by Black youth and flourished that makes it somehow not AA culture. Aren't you intelligence.

I bet you claim The Olmnecs and Black Chinese, though

Criticizing is one thing but you ways of ignoring what black women and white people do when they do something bad is what shows that you hate black men.

 

[Yup]

So do you..even.

 

[World'sFinest]

People like you who want to treat Black people as one monolithic culture do more harm than good.

Isn't this exactly what you're doing though?

I'm not understanding the South African slander a few pages back. Out of the Africans I've interacted with they seem to be the most down to earth and easier to vibe with.The two i know dont really fukk with white people at all (light skinned nikkas and Nigerians either apparently ) . Neither are from Cape Town or Johannesburg though so maybe that has something to do with it.

I'll hit her up and see what she feels about this .

Nah I always go at both black men and women when they are c00ning even on this site.

I dont know how you magically dont see my posts when I go at the black men who hate black women

Let me guess, they're from Durban?

No, grouping AA, African immigrants, Islanders and continental Africans as one group of people would be treating us as a monolith
