I'm only concerned with ADOS/FBA. Because that's all I know personally and professionally. I work with people from other ethnic groups but never hung out with any outside of work.
:pachaha:My fam from SC visited in the late 90's and my great aunt wanted her hair done, so we took her to the Dominicans. She had no idea what a Dominican was and didn't like them playing in her head. I shoulda just did it myself.

See, this is the fake, gaslighting shyt we talking about. I've had this conversation INNUMERABLE times. Literally I can't even count the number. I been checking bytches my whole life behind this 'you don't have no culture' shyt, while they literally sitting in and enjoying our fukking culture. I've had non-FBA profs and teachers WHO SPEAK PATOIS tell me that AAVE was not worth research and study. My grandmother had a Jamaican bytch tell her in the 60's that she was different/ better because she was a "subject of the queen." 😭

You nikkas disgust me fr.

What do you mean when you say #AlreadyHere? Are we talking indegenious:respect:?
Indigenous and yeah I’m talking about that. People on here can claim wherever they want as their “homeland”, but they not gonna make me say I’m from the same place as them when my grandmother told me something totally different. Life did not start for black people on one continent.

Mainly online. I don't think any smart person with a decent IQ and education will take part in such decisive name calling and group subjection unless its in a joking matter. Yes, do some africans and Caribbean's think they are better and black americans and have no culture, yes, there are also some that don't. Same as Black Americans that think all Africans have flies on their bellies and starve.

In reality unless you from a city populated with Immigrants from Caribbean or Africa, alot of the talk is from a failed pimp, anti intellectual,

As when I moved around the south, most people never even heard of my family's countries, and just assumed I was black, I mean white people certainly do and still do.

But no, let's look at hairlines and call other blacks tether's while Pojeet is taking over tech, we have a reading crisis across the Diaspora in the states, and a declining number in home ownership.

fukk all that, why us weak ass NY's letting puerto rican's say nikka and shyt yo?? I'm 1/18th Cherokee and shyt dawgg! These tether's got to go, said from Fort Worth Texas, where I may have went to school with maybe Nigerians and the rest of your high school looked like a Selena tribute concert.

My granny was a housewife until their girls grew up/ got married, she went back to work in the 60s at some type of factory, all bw. So, as they work, they chatting about various hardships and bs we contend with and the Jamaican lady said that weird shyt. Granny was like, 'Well, since yall so tight, can you ask her to get us some stools?' 🤣

Aye I’m not with the division, but whatever filters you have that’s cool. I’m just say I’m black. And for the most part I don’t really see Jamaicans pressing people on where you from but if a nikka slaps you you probably deserved it

/threads.

I done seen one black breh talking down on immigrants, then his homie, a whole ex-con, done shut his ass up with words such as "You really gonna let an 8th grade dropout who can't speak English outhustle yo bum azz!? I done 2 bids and I got me a job that pays me close to $45 and hour!" That dude that was complaining, was like :francis: and quietly apologized.

What I'm saying is, spitting that divisive shyt ain't popular with groups of black people MAKING MOVES.

Had a bytch tell me to my face she wasn’t black she was haitian. She was better than me.

Had another bytch tell me she was Jamaican not black we don’t know our culture.

Had an African bytch tell me I don’t know my tribe I’m just black.


If the Haitian told you that, tell her she eats dogs

Jamaican tells you that, tell Jamaica culture is whining and sex and murder, Sorry to hear you went through that, and I'm not trying to be rude when I say this.. but just get over it and banter back. They don't have the power or the influence to hurt you under a white supremacy culture because they are still black.

All I ever heard from this so called "group" is name calling and mean words.

I went to Spain with two black American friends and these South Carolina girls kept asking us where we from and what part of Africa etc, even when i said the Caribbean they still kept asking... :yeshrug: Some people are annoying and stupid. Did us 4 have more in common then anyone else in that Madrid club because we all shared the same skin, and we were the only black people there, you damn sure right, which is why her and her friend came up to us and asked us that dumb shyt.

You buried the lede. Nobody asked your opinion on my ethnic group. I don't speak on yours, you don't speak on mine. That's respect. Anything else is overstepping boundaries. Brooklyn is not America. I moved out here from Harlem and, though I see how you could be confused, that is not reality.

Both my IQ and education are immaculate. Don't think nobody peeped you calling us ignorant nikkas.

Again, calling us ignorant nikkas, but then shocked pikachu when we bomb back. Is this pan Africanism? Should I go clown some village children somewhere? What are the rules to this disrespect?

Also, improper usage of AAVE. :mjlol:

Blah blah blah Harlem is fuill to the brim with Africans and White People. I can speak to whatever I want to speak with. I don't box myself into silly ehtnic enclaves. I'm in Brooklyn but even "FBA"s from other cities move to the "Carribbean black neighborhoods or "African/White Neighborhoods when they come to NY


"FBA "would make it seem like we all don't get along, we all in the same neighborhood going through the same shyt. Have smoke for the white people moving past 110th not your fellow black people, god bless and Merry Christmas

Or should I say, Happy Kwanza :russ:

My actual point was his boy who did 2 bids (also FBA) shut him down when he hustled and got a decent paying jobs living in the quiet part of Yonkers, but blasted him when he was complaining about immigrants taking a job from him.
They both gainfully employed, working full time, and said whatever immigrant is taking your job, it must not pay well.

Thats when I knew the "immigrants are taking our jobs" angle doesn't go very far amongst blacks in all circles, FBA or immigrant. Well, at least in NY.

:scust:Negged. Harlem is gentrified and they used Africans to do it. This is our relationship. They use you as tools of our oppression and you're happy about it.

My grandfather has told me a similar experience. He also told me how White people treated them different, because of that. I've mentioned it in the past on this website what he said. We like to act like there is no difference, but if there was no difference, then they would not go through so much trouble of making sure everyone else knew they were different from us.

I know why they are upset and worried about some Black Americans pushing for Delineation, but their pride will not allow them to admit it or admit that their ethnicities were the ones who started this whole mess. Our ancestors worked to open the doors for them, and many of them came and made sure that the White man understood they were not one of us and would not side with us. Some of our people have finally seen enough, and decided to give them what they want, but no longer allow it to be under their control.
