“Don’t call me African” – Black America’s identity crisis

[Poitier]

Black and African are not interchangeable terms, dumbasses.

 

[Blackout]

Maybe it's on a deeper level how us AAs were prisoners of wars during tribal fueds and they see us as enemies from ancient blood fueds

Thats only some of them who dislike AAs and not all so I aint stressing.

 

[Mess World]

Thats some of them and not all so I aint stressing.

Well it's true we are all prisoners of war in America from Africa all Africans in Africa are the victors of war

 

[EndDomination]

I am of African descent. I am Black. Don't really know why mofos pride themselves on being called American so bad, yes we're american but what does that do for us

We're a nation. The nation that created the world's most popular genres of music, the nation that forged its own religious, dialects and vernaculars, styles, and culture.
"African" is not the same as African-American.

I been saying this for the longest too....its like our minds are in tune with each other, even in different areas of the earth.

Africa is the motherland for african americans. Culturally we carry very loose traditions so we can relate to our brothers in the motherland but we also carry an identity distinct to the demons that captured us and brought us to this land of milk, honey and Demonic FILTH.

We would be among a small group of people on the planet who would come to a foreign land and say, i am not my homeland. Thats how you know friends have lost their minds.

Many American individuals of German descent born in America still identify as Germans, but i guess some friends, in a desire to be accepted by demons will say, i am not African.

But, they are exposed by the fact that if Africa was the most powerful and richest nation on earth, these same individuals would be quick to claim their place of origin, even if the ties were bound by 1 drop of blood.

Its so demonic, friends.

 

[The American]

I am Black American, not African I have no ties to Africa.

We've been in America for hundreds of years; we hold no claim to Africa. Look at tribalism in Africa they don't even like each other.

Pan-Africanism does not exist.

You're a piece of shyt c00n, I hope the KKK gives you your much needed wake up call.

And I hate the KKK.

Africans think of African Americans as culturally different, and non-African in terms of citizenship/nationality. The same for caribbean blacks.

But they absolutely recognize African Americans as part of the African diaspora. Africans aren't blind, or clueless about history. lol

These African Americans who seem to think they were created in a petri dish in Connecticut in 1830 are lost.

That's the exact metaphor needed to describe that type of idiocy.........Folk want to be recognized only for a stunted history that has started magically out of thin air while in chains........."but but but but....we have a culture here that we've created".... Like breh....this a fragmented "culture" out of the doldrums of being enslaved, with way too much hijacking from outsiders and influence from cacs...... This is NOT who we REALLY are......celebrate it for what we've done here, but don't say this is who we are.......

Mannnnn

I have a lot to say about this. Stuff that would blow everyone's mind in here about where (The majority not all) us Black American's REALLY come from (and no its not directly from Africa and its been proven) but that is a topic for another day

I know that breh but don't forget breh without them African drums we wouldnt have the most beautiful music that we created into our own. I always look at things like that as tribal. Not matter what culture and languages we are still brothers and sisters after it all But that religion shyt was not formed by us at all.

 

[Kano]

I am 100% Fulani Nigerian. Kano city. Who happens to be born in America. Probably was an anchor baby

African and African Americans are so far removed I don't blame Africans Americans for not wanting to be African. but the mentality Africans should have towards African Americans should be this.

We are distant brothers and sisters based on circumstance were seperated, a long waited family reunion is due. Africa welcomes you back, if you choose to come back, with open arms.

Da fukk are u talking about

 

[BlackMajik]

Ok tomorrow when I get a chance I'll be making a thread to help A LOT of you understand where MOST of us Black Americans came from

And 1 thing people need to drive into their fukking skulls (and i know it's very difficult for people to grasp this becuz history has been tampered with) is this

BLACK PEOPLE DID NOT ONLY EXIST ON THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA. U HAVE BEEN LIED TO AND DECEIVED FOR MOST OF YOUR LIVES
