Its crazy cause the reverse is true also. The only type of information you get from global media (BBC, CNN) about African-Americans or Afro-Britains or African diaspora is the bad stuff also. So basically, they feed the negative news about Africans to African Americans and they feed the negative news about African Americans to Africans...the devil is slick my friend.These threads always go into the same divisive shyt...which is sad. And kind of the reason I don't like going in them.
You've just got a bunch of AA posters in these threads who believe everything they hear read and see on American media about Africa spouting off their misinformation and drawing faulty conclusions.
It's obvious you don't pay attention to news about the continent and the nation's within it...or the inner politics of the land. Now I don't watch American TV especially in regards to Nigeria or any African affairs cause their only point is to deliver misinformation to support a biased narrative to paint us as inhuman savages, disease ridden, warmongers, scammers, literally the embodiment of everything negative. I have to thank my dad for putting me on to more relevant news sources about Nigerian affairs (he travels there from time to time to deal with family and business abroad). If I had to only watch American TV to learn about Nigeria and go on a couple experiences I would have the same muddy picture a lot of you have.
