NYC is the GOAT melting pot for Black ethnicities

[flo]

I don't see how y'all do it. fukk does that even mean? I would catch a charge behind some shyt like that.

I’ve seen AfrAms call themselves “regular black”. Comedians have brought it up. I don’t get it.

Probably because every other black group tries to come off like they mixed with some special Arawak taino Jamaican Chinese dougla bullshyt. Most of the AAs up there that would refer to themselves as just regular black is probably "throwing shade" at you flag waving special snowflake nikkas, esp the females.

DC has a higher per capita concentration of ethiopians and eritreans.

But I’m not even talking about racial admixture, just plain nationality wise. American is seen as “regular”.

Plenty of AAs brag about being part Native too.

DC has the second highest African population but the percentage of the population that is African is greater so it stands out more down here


Oh and absolutely dc has a higher east African population

yeah
percentage wise i totally agree

Breh....can you read?

Dc' s EAST African population is bigger than new york

breh
it’s like 300k blacks living in DC
it’s like 2.3 million blacks living in nyc

I could never understand why we call ourselves that either. African Americans are far from anything “regular”. Our culture and history are too godly for us to be downplaying ourselves on some BS label.

Florida by far

I know we have a lot of Caribbean people but I don't run into many Africans unless I'm trippin.

We gotta get these pride-less offbrands out here misrepresenting the culture in order.


They get disrespected because they don’t respect themselves.

He's speaking of the EAST AFRICAN population (Ethipoians and Etitreans primarily).

They have huge numbers here in DC. Not sure of in NYC.

NY food- I remember the first time that I had red red, Indian dishes, Peruvian, Carribean... there was a restaurant in Washington heights that my friends and I would go to with the simplest chicken con pollo (not sure if it’s still there) but it was dope. Best real pizza spots, no competition.

After all that Never had the taste for the americanized/European fast food spots (McDonald’s, Fridays, Applebee’s, Burger King, Pizza Hut )
