Sports Analyst, Emmanuel Acho, says being non-FBA means he doesn't have "generational trauma" and he can speak with no "sting" to white people.

What's the controversy here?
He's speaking his truth. Nigerians don't have generational trauma colonialism. Their c00nery has nothing to do with white folks. They do it because they hate nikkas.











Although they do worship Brits. Mostly the southern ones

Not everyone c00n for the same reason

It’s disgusting and exactly what Fela talked about in the late 60s.

Bruh what? Even the concept of ‘Nigeria’ itself is steeped in colonialism. Majority of the country practicing some form of Abrahamic religion. Their trauma may be different but it’s there. Acho just a clown though with a bit of an expansive vocab. Stopped watching SFY because of it. Why do we continue signal boosting this diaspora war bullshyt. GODDAMN.

That tweet thread is .. it’s insinuating that no country in Africa has keep generational traditions, while also giving African Americans props.. if AAs as a whole knew America’s culture was anti-black, what was the purpose of integration?

To allow legal adjudication of institutional segregation How are you grown and not comprehending this. Why would any black person want it to be Legally Protected to be segregated from access.


Are you an African?

Amazing!!!!!

And will be the FIRST clown to call me out whiile not knowing a LICK of anyones history, never mind his own.

 

[Nigerianwonder]

It's dumb to innsuate that there is no generational trauma from colonization.

How does his Nigerian lineage supposedly free him of generational trauma? Nigeria and Nigerians were colonized and enslaved by the English. They didn't even name their own country or set the geographical borders. A White woman named their country and England set their borders: and then forced them to speak English.

That nikka crazy.

Some of yall are slow. He was speaking specifically about generational trauma from American chattel slavery and Jim crow.

Nothing Acho said was offensive. In fact he pretty much cosigned ADOS. And Acho speaks as a black man and has made the distinction that he is not ADOS. Being "black" is not limited to America nor is the "black american experience" limited to just ADOS blacks, so he can speak his truth in that regard. The white supremacist social construct largely determines how you are treated in America and thats based on skin color, physical features, and perception first. On a micro level thats where lineage can come into play in areas like jobs ( ie sometimes an African name on a resume could be seen as as preferential to a stereotypical black sound name like "Shaniqua" or something... However both will be seen as less desirable than other races and white folks.)

There are points made on both sides. Problem with Vans argument is that he dont really want to go to war with cacs at the end of the day. Most black folk dont. So the only other option is to work with them. which we do daily at our jobs and in life. Acho is basically saying its easier for him to be pragmatic and "bury the hatchet" to find middle ground and have a discussion with white folks than someone like Van who gave an emotional response but no real solution. It's like when keeping it real goes wrong.

Just like with the Kyrie situation. Folks wanted him to keep it real but if he did that meant loosing everything. Kyrie want to play ball and keep cashing those jewish checks. Only a fool didnt see that situation ending without him taking a giant L. So why say what he said and approach the situation like that in the first place? He knew he didnt want to go to war and it would end in him backtracking. He lost millions for nothing. Thats what Vans approach will get you unless you willing to loose it all.

Repped

 

[OnFleekTing]

He sound so stupid once you pop the bubble of how americanized these non fba c00ns are

If you speak English and are not esl then you cannot claim non generational trauma. He just Basically saying he's the safe negro and using words like anger calling black Americans unreasonable

 

[Nigerianwonder]

No he wasnt

Yes he was. The discussion was about racism IN AMERICA and speaking on that on his platform. Thats why he talked about his experience growing up IN AMERICA and what he heard white folks say and what he heard black folks say. Yall are slow.

 

[Still Benefited]

Most of these Africans ain’t doing shyt for the culture. I’m flying to Nigeria at 10 o’clock tonight to go and be a part of the solution. To go and vote for Peter Obi
No, she didn’t. no, she didn’t.

If Emmanuel understood his history, he would’ve brought up his own trauma as an Igbo man.

He would’ve done exactly what Fela did here.



He is doing the opposite. He doesn’t have Tunnel vision on his own history and how it’s similar to the experience of Black people here. fukk your “what you’re really saying is “ garbage.

You’re a dumb ass and dishonest poster

Oh, so you think its knowledge of ones history that would make one more traumatized?


If you believe that you are just as out of touch as Acho. And the girl in the video said Africans dont realize its a white man at the top pulling the strings. And that everytime they see a white man he's there to save them(not knowing its usually ulterior motives). She is saying Africans have a level of ignorance and ignorance is bliss. Not sure how thats different than Acho acknowledging he is priveledged by not having the "tunnel vision" that black americans have. But I digress,clearly you lack the emotional intelligence

 

[NYC Rebel]

He basically the said white folks told him it’s easier for them to talk to him, and he agreed

Why else would you be so comfortable to speak on their behalf?

 

[Nigerianwonder]

Van is right. Acho's sit-downs with Cacs called 'Uncomfortable Conversations' as an attempt to be peacekeeper with cacs never sat well with me



If you cant identify with the trauma/baggage of ADOS experience, you shouldn't be the voice to speak for them. Especially when you feel your voice will be received better by cacs because of it.

Finally watched this clip. What exactly do you disagree with that he said here? He literally breaks down and delineates ADOS from other black americans in the first 5 minutes. He make it clear he is also speaking on his opinion. So tell me exactly what he said in this clip you don't agree with?

Some of yall wouldnt be happy unless he jumped over the table and choked roget godell or slapped mcconaughey for asking dumb questions that cacs are thinking but never say out loud. Where would that get him though? Kapernick sacrificed his career to "keep it real" with you fake militants and yall still watching NFL like it never happened. Yall tried to gas up kyrie too to end his own career "for the cause" but he smartened up. Basically its seems like Van lathan was on some crab in bucket type hating cause he doesnt have a platform as big as Acho so he wants to tear him down.

THIS IS WHAT PPL ARE PURPOSELY MISSING....

THEY MAKE DUDES LIKE ACHO
THE VOICE OF BLACK AMERICANS...

You might be slower than him, because White supremacy and racial trauma also exiated in colonialism. Colonialism and slavery are disconnected. They are one in the same.

Why are you going to feel more comfortable around white ppl in America than your home country?

How'd that work out for those Africans in Ukraine?
