Black British comedian talks about African Americans

[Prince Akeem]

Us Black Brits stay on these African American minds:

Our women
Our actors
Our music scene
Our accents

and now

Our comedians

They just can't seem to leave us alone.

And yet here you are...On the coli...An American web forum geared towards AA culture.

Must be fun to lie to yourself I guess.

I'm not gonna try and "spin" anything, because again you're being emotional and taking out all your hurt and frustration out on me. I'm not into dikk measuring contests. You're whole entire post is filled with nothing but animosity, resentment and hostility and then you seriously wonder why you're attracting the same type of energy from people that you're clearly giving out. Whoever said all that ignorant bullshyt to you, you need to take that up with them. I've had ignorant muthfukkas from all backgrounds say ignorant shyt to me about my people, so what?

One minute you claim we look down on and hate you so much, next minute we're ass kissing and idolising AAs. Which is it? You clearly have your own negative perceptions of us, so what's the difference? Those stereotypes about AAs come from cacs. They say Americans are fat and lazy, violent etc. Well, don't we (brits including blacks) all have bad, yellow teeth? Aren't we all ugly? Aren't we all soft? Aren't we all cultureless and worthless according to some posters on here? Don't we all speak like Prince Charles? Etc etc?

I'm not playing dumb at all. For the record, I have blood family members in the states three generations deep who are just as American as you are.

We don't reach out? Umar Johnson, Irritated Genie and many other modern leaders and groups have strong ties to British Pan African and pro black groups. Even Tariq Nasheed who this board hates has connections over here who I'm hopefully going to be seeing when he does a lecture with my family friend Robin Walker. The mere fact that your leaders have created strong ties with those of us here and that we have similar organisations is proof alone that we do "reach out".

The fact you claim that the British don't support you shows your fukking ignorance and if you BOTHERED to do your damn research you would see that's not the case. Example:





There's many AAs who have a connection to black folks here as well as the rest of europe and worldwide, speak for yourself. Just because YOU don't like us doesn't mean there aren't AAs who don't identify with us. Look up Titans TV on youtube. Kalem El(sp?) has the respect of the Pan African/ concsious community in the states and all over.

This isn't a contest to see who has suffered more. Did you cry for Stephen Lawrence (his mother actually connected with Trayvon's mother and took her to the very street her son got killed, look it up)? For Anthony Walker? Did you cry over the 13 young black children who were massacred in the 1981 fire during a house party that even our own media didn't give a fukk about and blamed us for? Did you cry over Mark Duggan who got shot by the police in 2011? Others who have been killed in police custody? Those of us who are over represented in mental health institutions? Our struggles and insurrections have changed laws over here which other racial groups have "piggybacked" and taken advantage of and benefited from, just like in the states.

Am I to blame for the atrocities AA suffer? I have family on both sides of the Atlantic who were beaten and locked up for damn near no reason at all. If I was standing on the same street corner as you anywhere in the states I'm just as likely to get my head blown off as you would, white supremacy doesn't give a fukk about my accent or where I was born. I'm just as nappy headed and melanated as you probably are.

Black Britons have ALWAYS looked up to AAs. ALWAYS. We know what your contributions have been and have always identified with it.

You say:

As far am I'm concerned black people only exist in the America until I see receipts about what these non American Africans are doing to fight racism.

Wow....

Just admit you hate us and leave it at that. It's really that simple. You have your mind made up and I'm not gonna try and change it. Thankfully every AA doesn't think like you. Neither does every black brit think like the ones you've spoken to that have had a bad effect on you. When I go to America, I get nothing but love for the most part and always diss cacs from here and the states. Cacs don't give a fukk about any of us regardless and don't want any of us to exist. That's the reality.

As far as what we've done, I'm not going to do the research for you. The information is out there. There's books like Black Britain and Staying Power which goes into huge depth about our own civil rights movements and struggles in this country and our contributions spanning back hundreds of years.

"Our own civil rights movements and struggles" that's my whole point. There's no solidarity between us. You have your own struggles and movements, so why am I obligated to align myself with you when you don't align yourself with me? The English aren't hard to spot in the states. Your accent gives you away. You referenced my civil rights leaders. You're right, Americans built bridges in other countries. We extended our hands to you. That's my whole point.

When people talk about civil rights they immediately think of African Americans. That's almost anywhere in the world. I guess the entire world needs to learn about your civil rights movement and struggles since they're exclusive to The British.

You keep spinning it to seem like I'm ignorant or angry and that's not true. I have no connection to any other African groups other than ones in America. Like most AAs in America. My position isn't exclusive to me. I don't hate you. I just don't identify with you. It's not personal, we're just too different culturally.

Are Jamaicans KHOONS too for bowing down to that CAC queen too?

 

[No Sleep]

I cringe seeing this shyt. It wasn't even funny.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

People responding to Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha seriously

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Evidence that Divide and conquer was executed brilliantly. Your mentality breh. Sounds like you identify more with being "American" than being black. (Assuming your black)

Talking about "we extend our hand to others" speak as if your not a second class citizen yourself. Beloved, your mind has been colonized. A black man is a black man, IDGAF if you got the eastern cac accent or the western cac accent. This culture that you identify with ain't even yours.

nikka talkin bout he can't relate to blacks from england while speaking ENGLISH. We are the same people, just some of us clearly have bought into this cultural identity they've been selling

Pardon this guy @DaRealness we don't all think like this

 

[IllmaticDelta]

I was speaking in generalities. Everything has African roots

There is a big difference in new world blacks inherited african roots and there modern CREOLIZED culture(s)

and we all know where hip hop's roots are from.

The fact is you probably don't even really care about black folks to begin with

because while your posting up Marcus Garvey quotes,

I posted the Garvey quotes as a response to those trying to credit him with the origin of Pan Africanists thoughts

true Pan Africanists care about the unification of black people worldwide and don't get into bullshyt debates about who is better and why considering the black community is in a bad state all over the globe regardless of who started spinning records or other trivial nonsense.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

You humbled me. Now I have to read all your sources after I complete my school work and career work assignments. Thanks alot Illmatic. Thanks alot. . Needless to say knowledge is power. And after I'm done reading your sources I will bombard you with questions my brother.

 

[SeveroDrgnfli]

Are Jamaicans KHOONS too for bowing down to that CAC queen too?

Its a tough call. Canadians are for sure. Jamaicans redeemed themselves with the Rasta Movement. It was and still is one of the most positive and productive universal African movements of all time. They also don't fukk with the cracker queen at all. Jamaicans are holding the championship belt for hating crackers. So they get a pass and a head knod. American Blacks could learn a lot from Jamaicans and Africans. The British get an honorable mention. They ain't putting up enough numbers. I think white people in Britain go harder.
V For Vandetta

watching him slice up those police and blow up parliament

Almost makes me forget he's white, almost.

I've given the British a lot of shyt in this thread. I was lightweight trolling homeboy I responded to. He seemed all in his feelings. TBH, I'm sure our struggles are the same and what I'm upset about is the fact we, the premiere African groups of the world haven't done more with and for each other. My fascist demonic cracker ass cracker government is an extension of the British cracker ass incestuous reptilian royal family. What's really going in family? We need to have a clear plan of attack against these demons before they kill us all.

Every black man around the world is fukking nervous. We're not scared. Because we ain't scared of shyt. But we know what time it is. We can feel it. It's open season on us around the world. They're green lighting our women, poisoning us, incarcerating us, murdering us, and keeping us under educated and disconnected.

My position isn't exclusive to me. I don't hate you. I just don't identify with you. It's not personal, we're just too different culturally.

I come from a Pan African line of thought, so personally I would have to disagree. Black is black as far as I'm concerned and many AAs will tell you the same, sorry.

I'm not saying that we all have to completely identify with and understand each other. shyt, I don't even relate to half my damn relatives. The first time I met a black Australian dude was like encountering an alien with three heads. I don't know much about the black struggle out there in Oz, but they're still my brothers and sisters regardless and I know that cacs are giving them a hard time too and I'd stand with them because they're in the diaspora just like me. Regardless of how you may feel about me or vice versa, If I was in your town and that fat fukk Zimmerman or any other racist came towards us both, we'd both have to form like Voltron and kick his ass to preserve our lives. We don't have to relate to each for that to happen, but we're both black regardless. It doesn't matter whether you think I have a strange accent or not lol. I'd have to throw those hands and have your back as well as preserve my own life.

Look, I don't have a problem with African Americans being the "leaders" or at the forefront, because it's not a competition. You guys have the history, the resources and the numbers, so why not? I wish Black Brazilians and Nigerians who have even bigger numbers were able to make power moves too. I don't care about who is the HNIC of all, I just want black folks to return to greatness, bottom line. I'm just not gonna tolerate the blatant disrespect we (black britons) have been getting on this board and keep quiet about it. It's that simple. That comedian is a corny dikkhead and if he dissed black Americans in front of the places I've been to, we would have attacked him ourselves. The fact is, if an American comedian dissed AAs, would you guys heckle him for us....?

We're not as different culturally as you think we are. Have you ever been here? A lot of AAs I know who have spent time in black areas in England, particularly in London, have stated that it reminds me them of back home, the only difference is the accent. Before gentrification, being in somewhere like Hackney was similar to being in Brooklyn. Yes, the way we live has slight differences, but it's not the huge gap you make it out to be.

My point is that AAs have reached out, we have also reached out and have been doing so from day one. Doreen Lawrence reached out to Trayvon's mother. Kalem El reached out to the conscious community in the states, now he and others from here have a home in the conscious community out there and likewise AAs know they can come over here too - Saa Neter and all them dudes.

Yes, the world does need to learn about us a lot more. Everyone knows about AAs because remember America in general has the most powerful media machine for like over 100 years, so your contributions, struggles, music etc is bound to be more well known.
