It's nothing personal but Arabs and CACs have made things very difficult for blacks for thousands of years, of course there's going to be some resentment and bitterness.
This. And that's a major point of Dr. John Henrik Clarke's teachings. Many of these religions have been stolen from African spirituality and repackaged. Africans are the FIRST people. I don't understand why people try to deflect from this.
I've had more than enough interactions with Muslims/Arabs that I have grown a major dislike for their kind. Any black person practising their religion is a fool.
I don't give a fukk about any of that cause to me all Muslims are Arabs. And those blacks claiming to be Muslims are just confused brothers/sisters who I love dearly.In other words, I wasted my time actually typing out a coherent, logical, fact based argument on why Muslim and Arab are not synonyms, because fukk all that critical thinking shyt.
Gotcha.
Pause. Arabs WERE NOT THE FOUNDERS OF ISLAM... They adopted Islam to unite their bands of wandering tribes just as the Romans adopted Christianity to create the "Holy Roman Empire."Your insistence on equating a person's acceptance of a religion or culture that wasn't founded by their direct ancestors as somehow being a red flag in their mentality or moral intentions is misguided to say the least, and offensive in how juvenile that reasoning is.
The very nature of any culture is shaped and defined by those who engage in it, and it will be influenced over time by it's adherents. It's both silly and historically inaccurate to characterize Islam as an Arab culture and religion simply because the founders of it were Arabs. How can you erase the identity of the Mouride in Western Africa, the Hui or Uighars in China, or Sunnis in Indonesia as "Arab" just because it fits your narrow definition of what a Muslim is or how one behaves? And that's to say nothing of American forms of Islamic practice and ideology. Your ethnocentrism is forcing you to ignore the fact that individual people determine the fate of a culture, not the other way around.
And for the record, i'm far from ignorant on Dr. Clarke's teachings. The man was brillilant and I have a number of his books in my personal library (I still have the obituary that I cut out from the Philadelphia Inquirer that was printed on him when he passed years ago). I was watching John Henrik Clarke, Ashra Kwesi, Dr. Barashango, and Dr. Ben VHS tapes back in the 90s, so as you said yourself, "I'm not new to this, I'm true to this."
