Serious: Why wouldn’t a Black American Share More In Common Culturally With A White American over an African?

[HimmyHendrix]

The coli has reached a new low with this one.

what’s the low? is the op a lie?

B-bbut David Duke used to post on LSA! How is this clearly race-cosplaying shyt going on here any different?

This site is the male version of LSA really little difference

Why wouldn't be closer culturally to White Americans? We've only been in the same country for centuries. Have families who were in wars together (albeit treated differently) I'm sorry I'm closer culturally to some White Southerners than I am to some brother in Kenya

I feel people would only do this with Black Americans by the way.

No one would bat an eye if a Black Dominican, Jamaican, Belizean, Brazilian, Puerto Rican, Costo Rican, etc, shared more in common with their countryman regardless of race than they do with someone deep in Africa

Yes, me and Chad in Apartment 3C both have an affinity for Football Sunday, Soul Food/Southern Food, Seafood Boils and Boxing, Baseball and old school American muscle cars.

I'm sorry that I share more in common with him than Gasimba the Hutu brotha from Rwanda.

But that is true for everyone. We all share more in common with our countryman than other people. It only offends yall when it comes to us though.

Because white Americans' culture consists of being racist towards black people.

There is no one specific black American culture. A black American from New Orleans is not going to have the same culture as a black American in Newark. Same with African culture. There are tens of thousands of tribes and ethnic groups in Africa.

pan africanism has massacred my people

Pan Africanism and not white supremacy?

 

[HimmyHendrix]

Pan Africanism has left us isolated with our line of thought. no other member of the black diaspora would disagree with the op

 

[havoc]

That's irrelevant. Their entire cultural identity was shaped by the American experience.

You telling me this brotha right here...The second president of Liberia Stephen Allen Benson, born in Maryland isn't *Really* black?

Or this man Edward James Roye...The fifth president of liberia born in Newark, Ohio isn't a "Black american"?

Pan Africanism and not white supremacy?

pan africanism and white supremacy are two sides of the same coin

both look to absolve africans and europeans of what they’ve done to us:

i wanna hold them both accountable

You can't even hold your own people accountable.

There's no code amoungst FBA's other than to ally with another group against your own group.

this is a regional lie. the dominant culture doesn’t change. i’m not out of place when i’m in detroit or atlanta. some regional variants but the dominant culture is the same which is what migration did

the jump from BA Detroit to BA St Louis

is not the jump from yoruba to igbo

or hutu to tutsi

y’all gotta stop

Stop making sense in an obvious troll thread.

My nikka (FBA word) Baltimore and DC nikkas have completely different accents hell white Balmer people have different accents that nikkas from B-More.

Never heard a Black person call Baltimore Balmer.

The music is different from DC the food is different again I'm talking about Black people living about 40 minutes from each other.

Incredibly suspect comment.

What massacres has Pan Africanism been responsible for?

So the ideals of John Henrik Clarke, Malcolm X, WEB Du Bois, Cheik Anta Dipp has been a negative?

Wow.

Nothing wrong with holding Africans accountable but to put Africans on par with White supremacies, is quite frankly foolish, One is far more weighted than the other, there’s African tribes who have killed each other en masse but if a breh from the Congo or Nigeria was to say his rival tribes had done more damage to his people than European Brits Belgian or French he would be looked upon as a c00n and rightly so.

accent don’t change the fact that you

worship largely the same
both watch the same sports if different teams
big mama cooks the same food

etc etc

don’t try to be african. we are not that different at all.

Not really Yoruba and Igbos share mostly the same culture, language is different but these are the same people genetically and culturally.
