I feel really bad and I just want to get this off my chest.

In fact I’m mad at myself for having these thoughts. But I don’t know how to feel about this.

-It’s about Trump and him attacking Haitians and Africans today. I wanted to get upset at Trump about those comments, but for some reason I couldn’t. I’ve been looked down on by Africans before and made fun of by Haitians saying I have no culture. And for a brief second when Trump was attacking them today. I wasn’t furious at him, I was thinking

That’s what they get for being jerks.


- I generally hate myself for having these thoughts ( I’m trying to understand), but how many times we’ve heard immigrants say we’re lazy, not smart enough, etc, etc. Sometimes I feel like a lot of these African immigrants aren’t helping fight white supremacy in America, but sometimes I see them as complacent in it.

I remember reading Wale post attacking some African Americans on the idea we only buy Jordans, I’ve seen that Kenyan mother attack other black people when we trying to defend her son after that H&M debacle.

Am I a bad person for this?

Anxiety creeping back

Wrote my annual goals and taped it to my wall. Seeing them visually goes a long way. Travel goals, entrepreneur goals, fitness goals, and education goals. Lets get it .

Conflicted about the diaspora wars flooding TLR.

The anger from AAs is justified, but I’m not sure it’s productive.

I feel ya cause, I feel the same way. I see where AAs are coming from with the frustration but at the same time, it kind of bothers me, idk it just does. I just hope many of the cats screaming hyon are REALLY focused on improving the AA family and not on some "every negro for himself" nonsense.They better be deadset on marrying a AA woman/man and raising AA children correctly. There bet not be no one distancing their selves from blacks in poverty or middle to upper class blacks either.

A lot of them aren’t

A lot of them aren’t

Which is one of the reasons it somewhat bothers me. I feel that some of the posters in a couple of those threads don't really have best interest of AAs as a whole. My thing is this, if you're going to preach AA pride then you need to be preaching and practicing it on ALL levels and not to what you just feel comfortable with.

Yea because you can’t tell the difference between our brethren in other diasporas and c00ns in other diasporas.

I’ve met both Afric00ns/Haitian c00ns and African and Haitians who got our back. You gotta learn that they aren’t a monolith so you don’t follow in white peoples ways.

You should be enjoying that c00ns are getting their wake up call but also keep in mind of our allies in those diasporas that are getting hit too.

We need to make it so that it’s black unified vs c00ns of all diasporas and not generalize each other to create time wasting conflict.
