If I’m not mistaken the potato is an American plant that they brought over to Europe and genetically modified to feed the poor masses. That’s why Ireland got fukked when the blight happened and their population due to famine and emigration has never been higher than it was in 1850.Come to think of it, even the food part doesn't even have a direct Igbo connection cuz a lot of cultures in the West African region kinda have similar foods.
By the way isn't potato from Europe? I would assume mashed potatoes came from there.
Westernized black people in general are ashamed to have any relation to Africa. Folks will cap and front but it is true. You had a lil wave in the 90’s when folks were on that mother africa wave heavy, but apart from that there is a sense of shame. I don’t even care about that honestly my issue is how negros always seem to be in competition with one another. I think it’s psychological. We can’t compete on the same playing field as the white man (with everything besides entertainment) so, we gotta compete and pull the other man down. It’s the “H.N.I.C” mentality, “crabs in a barrel” they call it.It does make you think, out of all of the diaspora, African Americans rarely acknowledge the African influence.
Just like the Banjo. They take credit for it, but never talk about it's African roots.![]()

It's like this thread a few weeks ago about the history of BBQing. They just rarely acknowledge their influences to the point you would think they birthed themselves.I think that they have medication for that.
This. Many Black Americans dont appreciate being associated with african cultures. This will likely ruffle alot of feathers here.
this sounds like anti-african hotep c00n babbleThat’s nonsense. We love Africa so much that we romanticize it only to go there and realize a large majority of the people are self-hating tribalistic fair skinned white Jesus loving c00ns. Won’t let at Black American get citizenship but will make a Chinese slave driver tribal chief. The dysfunction is on all sides which is why we are a conquered people.
Ghana was literally giving out citizenships to the whole diaspora in 2019That’s nonsense.

so besides babbling online, what are you doing to unify people and effect change?but it’s not…you would have a point if there were more people like Julius Malema but there are not. We are conquered globally…are resources are being extracted to make China and Europe (including USA) rich while we starve and live in filth and instead fighting for what’s ours…a lot of us run to land of the third to get a piece of the profits made off the resources of ours that were stolen. shyt is fukked up…and we as African people as a whole are so fukking stupid that we sell each other out left and right. If we all unite we all eat but people would rather sell us out just to make sure they get a plate for themselves. For every Lumumba there are 5 Mobutu’s abd until we have a real conversation about that and be ready to ride on Mobutu type nikkas, nothing will change.

You are making another equally dumb ass statement after writing that some poster made a dumb ass statement. Black people brought rice growing to America and they brought a lot of rice dishes with them like Jambalaya and Hoppin John.
