Can you tell the difference between the average ADOS and West African person at a glance?

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

Yes, but not consistently.​

Bouba savage is clearly African. I could see this guy on the street and call him African without him saying a word

his NY accent ain’t hiding sh*t

 

[UberEatsDriver]

I'm from London and you can tell the difference between a West / Central / South African and a West Indian more than 50% of the time but less than 66% imo.

That's true you can say the same with a Puerto Rican and a mexican. But that ain't how white supremacy works. Black people are the number 1 enemy all around the world. They can deal with a few of us. But if that number gets too high they showing they white supremacy colors even if they are not white euros (Indians, asians, arabs, white latins and etc).

The name of the game globally in this team sport of racism is black people are the enemy.

So when they shot that foreign brotha 41 times. They didn't think hey that is a non black American. Them pigs said hey that's a black person that's the enemy open fire.

Actually when it comes to racism a global scale, some group of Black people are more accepted than other. A Black American will face less racism than an African because they are considered Westerners.

Depends on the ADOS and West African in question.

The slave traders went to specific locations in West Africa to match up with the skills they needed in America. I've read that a lot of Igbos ended up in the DMV area, so black folks around there will look more similar to Igbos from Nigeria.

Black folks in South Carolina and Georgia descend from people that grew rice so you might see similarities between West Africans in rice growing regions and blacks in SC/GA. Plus....a lot of Blacks from SC/GA went north to NYC, Philly and Boston during the Great Migration. So...Black folks in those cities will often be related to and look similar to the SC/GA blacks.

I think Yoruba and Akan people were more prevalent in the Caribbean and South America, so you'll see parallels there.

Louisiana....it's said one of the reasons the state prison is called "Angola" is because many of the Africans brought to New Orleans during slavery, came from that part of Africa.

I'd say many Nigerians and Ghanaians could "pass" as ADOS but other groups like Senegalese or folks from Benin, Togo etc. would standout more.

2021 and nikkas still with this narrative

Easily can tell difference.

Africans and ADOS/Black both have distinguishable demeanor, personalities and features.

Anybody saying otherwise is lying. You can easily tell the difference between an African man and an ADOS man if both were standing next to each other.

Most AAs came from Kongo, Senegambia, Angola, and some parts of Nigeria.

the Nigerian resemblance don’t really hit until you go to Latin America or Brazil.

No we didn’t, stop with this narrative

Generally speaking yes but there's also hella crossover, which one is the african without knowing? Not outlandish to think they're the same ethnicity.

Clearly, you can see the man wearing the Black jacket is African even if the African in question is Americanized you can tell difference due to his/their appearance.

It's hard to explain how but it's just something that can be easily distinguishable.

 

[hatealot]

If this dude showed up at a Nigerian wedding no one could tell the difference

If he was in Queens or Brooklyn I would think he was Haitian just off the gap tooth.

 

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Most ADOS do not look the same as West Africans, due to the heavy white admixture.

Partially true. There's also the fact that many ADOS/Aframs are a mix of multiple West and Central African Bantu ethnic groups from Senegal all the way down the coast to Angola.
