She says the ones she rented to in the past have been “nothing but problems, fight with each other at night, disrespectful, entitled, unappreciative, because they get so much free sh!t in America and America has spoiled them and they expect the same free treatment when they come to Jamaica!”
Me no Black papi!! Bumpaclaattt!
You don't realize who you're engaging with. Before you get into a back and forth let me give you some more context. The poster you're quoting believes:Are you not a counsellor for young blk people?
Fukk kind of mindset is this to have?
It's like they deliberately, willfully deny this. My theory is that if they acknowledged how hard we fought, it would remind them and everyone else that they either didn't do the same or did so, failed, and fled. It's probably very painful.Because we fought for it

- Harriet Tubman wasn't real
- Human life never started in Africa
- Slavery in America never happened because there's no 'evidence' of slave ships

False.If we are to keep it all the way real.
The Haitians are the ONLY folks who can brag about having done anything significant to wite supremacy.
As I mentioned the Maroons of Jamaica earlier, they had no intention of blk freedom.
False.
All props to the first black republic in the western hemisphere, but what we did after slavery was nothing short of revolutionary. Hence, us having it best of anyone in the diaspora.
lol I think you’re proving my point. African Americans did not exclusively experience enslavement.
Yes PTSD
I couldn’t tell she lived in America till you guys started saying so as I know plenty of Jamaicans that sound like that where they put on a fake accent for clarity. But if she lived there as a legal citizen wouldn’t she be entitled to the same benefits as anyone else? I’m assuming she’s legal to work and travel back and forth. Where would the envy apply? Genuine question.My point is that we weren’t exclusively mistreated by white folks as evidenced by the op. And foreigners hating on/envying “Black Americans” for being born here is to be expected, as evidenced by the op. So the PTSD any one of us may have is not from the actions of the past, it’s from what’s occuring today, as evidenced by the op. And yes, our most trusted allies, the Demoncratic party, the founders of the ku klux klan, have been shytting and on “Black Americans” and continuously remain doing so, more than any other perceived racial group.
Tell the whole story though. The one where France came back with an even bigger military force after 1804 and told Haiti either run it back or run us or money. And Haiti didn't want to run it back and been in debt ever since....If we are to keep it all the way real.

What Haiti did was remarkable and one of the few shots that hit target for Blacks in America but what they did doesn't compare to The Civil Rights Act brought upon by Black Americans.
Nothing has benefited Black people in this hemisphere more then the Civil Rights Act and if you want to argue with that just look at the masses of Haitian immigrants dying to get here to this land and use all those rights that were afforded to them by the blood and sweat of Black Americans.
End of story
Girl, what? You shoulda probably have watched the vid and reviewed the reciepts before commenting bc this post is a whole non sequitor.As a Jamaican I will tell you that Jamaican customer service is NOTORIOUSLY TERRIBLE, it’s not just to African Americans, it’s to everyone including Jamaicans. They are only nice to white ppl because they see dollar signs in the service industry. They are rude to everyone.
I think because African Americans are so used to prejudice in their own country it’s very easy to assume that this interaction is personal to them, it really isn’t. I understand that when you are always on the look out for prejudice you will find it. It’s PTSD
I watched the video long before it was posted here. Didn’t watch it again to take notice of her accent as it wasn’t essential to the argument. Also I still haven’t commented on the content of the video specifically.Girl, what?

So you came in the thread, were familiar with her vitriol, and still tried to frame this as a weakness of African Americans?I watched the video long before it was posted here.
