My mother is AA and my father somali :dahell:
But does that have to do with what I asked you
There is just a difference, breh.

Edit: from my experience Ethiopians/Eritreans/Somalians/africans don't want anything to do with us and actually get irritated when you call them black.

I'm Black AA and I think there is a uniqueness to being "Black American" simply because we feel that the term "black" unites us outside of country of origin. I find pride in being "Black" more than being "American" and I think in primarily black countries (Nigeria let's say) they may find more pride in being Nigerian, because being "black" isn't as unique, it isn't as criticized, and scrutinized as much as being Black American.

But let people self identify (within reason :whoa: no Rachel Dolezal)...I've never been a Black Nigerian so I don't know their life just like they don't know mine :manny:

I agree that AAs are definitely affected uniquely by WS and thats not even debatable but I don't see how AAs are the only Blacks.

Saying that Africans can choose if racism affects them is fukking stupid however and I don't know why people love to portray all africans as some white loving group of c00ns.

How so when all my friends and life experiences is solely from the perspective as a AA breh? It ain't that black and white.

I don't remember you repping AA gang. I could be wrong.

AAgang to me = the people who participated in the war against the Africans/West Indians.

Breh, don't take this as shots but isnt it kinda sad to have "war" against the Africans/West Indians?

I get theres always gonna be friendly banter and crossfire and boasting across cultures but sometimes
I don't know if you guys on here are joking or whether you genuinely strongly dislike other Black groups.
