We don't come from the same tribe. You don't know your tribe. You are a mixture of different tribes. Just like white americans are a mixture of european countries, and possibly admixtures of black/native blood. We live in the new world player. We are not from the old world. White americans are a mixture of different european countries, blacks are a mixture of different tribes and admixtures of european countries. You're trying to apply old world thinking to new world history.
and in case you want to know my point. here it is again. note: when I say ancestors, I'm talking about slaves. We are american, so I am talking about american ancestors. Since we are americans, american history is when ALL AMERICANS start. We live in the new world. A white american will call George Washington his forefather, not King George. So for a black person...forefather/ancestor = slaves. We go by nationality, not ethnicity. If we went by ethnicity it would be impossible, because just like whites are a jumble of european countries, we are a jumble of african countries. New World rules are a bit more complex than old world rules. That is why we, americans, go by our american ancestors. Regardless of all that, not knowing our OLD world ancestors is not the reason for our failures in 2014. THAT was the talking point you drove and crashed into.
