Don't understand the hate for this video.

It was boring. :kobedunno: What else is there to understand?

Most of the commentary was "I didn't know there was strife till I was older but I don't have no smoke :carlton:"

There actually wasn't much shea butter twitter shyt during the discussion.
One shorty on the panel talked about how she went to several West African countries and talked about how she got called a slave twice while there.
One scenario was that some man was bragging about how his family were responsible for selling black people to Europeans. He said my grandfather sold the weak African's into slavery, you're one of the weak African's. The other instance was some African breh was trying to spit game her way and she wasn't feeling him so like dudes in the states do when a girl isn't feeling them they say "fukk you bytch, I didn't want you anyway" but instead the African breh straight up called her a slave due to being rejected. Another shorty on the panel talked about how she was dating an African breh. She pretty much grew up with him, same neighborhood and all. But when they started getting serious he didn't introduce her to his mother because she was AA. One breh talked about how he used to make fun of people for their accents and he attempted to connect that to the contention that Africans have with AA's/Diasporans. A few people talked about some of the opinions that they've heard African's express about them. The same female who talked about being called a slave also talked about how she was at this history class that was discussing the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. The attendance was mostly continental African's with some AA's mixed in. When the details of the slavery became graphic specifically when things like castration got brought up a lot of the African students were giggling.
I really didn't see or hear all this shea butter shyt ya'll nikkas was talking about.

My boy told me that growing up in Nigeria they never taught him about the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. He didn't learn anything about slavery til he move to the states and started attending Grambling.

I watched the bit about ppl giggling in class, but didn't get to the part where ppl called her a slave

That's the default position for most who don't bother listening to the shyt. common occurence on the coli.

I absolutely want to titillate them titties, but the fact that she point blank said there is a rift is .....Africooon shiit....

I'd still smash, but with a face...

I already watched this. My pet peeve was the fact they kept talking about "Africans" but were largely in part only talking about Nigerians as if they represent us all.

On that show, that's the only Africans that exist. I swear. It's like that on other episodes too.
