did you watch the video?

No, just read the title and comments. Should I watch it? Is the title click-bait, because Im sick of this type of response from Africans, it is so out of touch and makes those of us who do not have this mindset or opinion look bad.

Nikka you just babbling.. You’re not an American descendent of slavery and neither is Akon.

Who the fucc is HE of all people to tell us to get over it. Where does he get his talking points from Richard Spencer?

He’s a c00n, and I don’t wanna hear him talking about what WE born here or lineage goes back here telling us “to let the past be the past” when we are still suffering from the benign neglect polices.

You’re ignorant as fucc, log off breh..
Thats a femcel anti-black male woman.

Africans did not benefit for slavery, by and large it was a big loss.
By the end Europeans had started to run over the tribes selling slaves but for the most part it was profitable. Africans didn't first start selling slaves to the Europeans/Cacs, it was first to other black people. There were successful kingdoms in Africa built with slaves all around, Musa I to name one.

That’s like saying that France doesn’t think about the Holocaust, why would non victims think about tragic events?

shyt after Hitler took a selfie in Paris I’m sure they still think about it

After watching the clip...I'm :hula:

My initial reaction to the title, and this high-profile con-artist, was... :mjpls:

After listening to what he had to say, I'll agree, he had some points....:hubie:

He was unempathetic to the psychological toll, being a second-class citizen takes. That shyt is a MFer (the hopelessness, the cynicism, lack of self-worth, division, etc.) He came off too dismissive. I'll give him a pass for his opinion, because he ran in circles out here, but still...:mjpls:

He's correct, A.As haven't taken enough time, to visit Africa, but that c00n knows all types of variables go into that shyt. Mainly, its expensive AF to get there. I know plenty of Africans stateside, that can't even go back themselves like that, due to the costs. These are folks that get to a bag...:childplease:

The perception of Africa, sadly, is also fukked up. The brainwashing, the US has done, can't be easily dismissed either...:mjpls:

I'd like to think of myself as "worldly" or knowledgeable, and I'm not gonna lie...I wasn't aware how modernized and nice, a lot of places in Africa were, until I seen threads on here. Its beauty and modernization, just isn't advertised like that over here...:mjpls:

IMO, we just started seein Africas' glow-up, the last few years. The women, music, infrastructure, etc. Thats only because, shyt can't be kept a secret/hidden, with social media/internet becoming so powerful.

The whole African Americans need to get over slavery argument makes it seem like that's when the mistreatment stopped. Everything we have in this country we've gotten in spite of the powers that be doing their best to make sure we remain second class citizens. As someone who has lived in this country and has made money with us you would think he would take the time to know what we've gone through.
