Went to Morgan State University and they forced ao much African history in us...from African History to African Art History.

I don't like how the interviewers ignored or encouraged them when they gave the wrong answer. That was annoying.

(Unless the interviewers didn't know themselves)

An impartial interviewer is a good thing.


I'm sure she told them at the end. But it's a good idea to get their unfiltered thoughts .

Off top. No googles…

Nigeria
Ivory Coast
Sudan
Ethiopia
Congo
South Africa
Kenya

edit: didn’t even think of Egypt, Morocco, Algeria and Chad…and I watch soccer.

edit 2: forgot about the brehs in Zimbabwe.

How is that impartial lol? Also, they weren't being asked a debate topic.

If they didn't correctly name a country in Africa, they should have told them that they were wrong. Simple as that.

I named 15 off the top of my head, this has to be an awareness skit or some shyt

edit: quick googles because I forgot, that's 15/54 so I still suck tbh

Somalia
Ivory Coast

Why do Black Americans need need to know that, were Black Americans?

This was also edited to make Black Americans look stupid

They would have no problem naming 5 European countries.

Africa is the foundation of civilization and the most globally important continent in terms of resources and geopolitics. That’s why any educated person should be able name 5 countries.

Your separatist ideology should not supersede your common sense.

 

[#BOTHSIDES]

Yeah, This is pathetic.

It's not even the fact that they're black and "should know every and anything about africa"

But how are people so geographically inept yet managed to make it to college?

That’s why this passport movement is vital

Americans in general are dumb when it comes to world geography. You’d probably make a similar video at any institution in the country

 

[Uchiha God]

I’ll just assume video was edited, although they kept the first breh

I feel like just in general, people should be able to do this, especially black kids in college

 

[Rekkapryde]

I went to an HBCU (Grambling), and it was not an requirement to learn about African history, because our HBCU's was built by Black Americans, so we learned about Black Americans and Black American History.

Yes, I took Humanities, but we rarely talked about Africa. Actually, I do not remember talking about Africa at my HBCU.

There not called Historically African Colleges and Universities.

 

[OneManGang]

One thing I’ll say though is Americans expect their public schools to teach them everything and it’s not realistic. School is not the end all be all, a lot has to happen at home and on your personal time.

OFF CODE

 

[Givethanks]

Laughing at people's ignorance will always be funny...even though this video was edite


The real question should be "name 5 European countries and 5 African countries".
