Nigerian comedian Godfrey says some Africans hate African Americans

The very basis of post-colonial Africa was based on pan-African tenets
South Africa was but one struggle amongst others: Algeria, Mau-Mau, Rhodesia, Angola/Mozambique
Also, again, ahistorical (literally, a lie) to state that the bond between the ANC and African Americans was stronger.
Nigeria gave the ANC $1 billion, the ANC trained in Algeria and Ethiopia, all of Africa advocated against Apartheid at the UN and other bodies
Please, stick to facts.
There are c00ns in every community
Your personal experience that all Africans are not pan-Africanst like your parents...I get it
It's essential we handle one another with grace and understanding.
You're literally discussing the ramifications of white supremacy that creates seeds of doubt, division, and hatred amongst the black community.
We should be having a discussion on the "Why".
A lot of the programming directed towards Africans framed Europeans as allies/white saviors and Black Americans as aggressors. [You're smart enough to understand how music, movies, tv, news, etc are used to weaponize a community]
Vice Versa, a lot of the messaging geared toward Black Americans painted Africans as ravaged, poverty-stricken people.
These tropes are leveraged pre-internet, social media age. More misalignment and understanding amongst the older generation.
I only hear about diaspora issues on TheColi, and FBA Twitter.
No one in my inner, and outer circles personally and professionally experiences diaspora issues. I broke bread and have been to a bunch of weddings, baby showers, music festival trips, vacations, and professional/career events amongst black folks from all over, with no issues.
I truly do not understand how y'all have issues with other black people

"Africans" don't even like "Africans". There is no unified body of Africans that all love each other but just happen to hate black folks. The main difference is American black folks didn't grow up other there, so they aren't privy to the tribal/ethnic conflicts. If a lot of them are in conflict with each other, it would be no surprise they continue to stick to their own culture/tribe and don't want to mix with African Americans.
The sensitive c00ns nerves being struck in this thread, predictably
