I don't like him but he's right about Pan-Africanism. I am African myself and I am telling you that Pan Africanism can never be achieved, it's just a dream.


Why not? All you have to do is view white people the way they view you and you're good.

Here’s where the problem lies...You’re taking my PARTIAL agreement to a certain part of what he said and using it to paint my views.

I do believe alliance between the diaspora is possible but to act like it has been fruitful thus far (hence the last part of what he said) would be disingenuous.
I don't think we ever had an alliance. ADOS don't go to Africa in large numbers. ADOS people aren't over there trying to compete. You barely sell hair care products or do shows over there dispite massive demand. Washed entertainers like Ja Rule can go over there and get a bag yet don't even pursue this like dancehall artists do.

It's these bytch ASS two faced, sneaky, plotting, turncoat, tribalist foreigners. These bytches will tell their kids not to associate with us, and will the SAME MF'S who ask why they are being called out. They are exhibiting classic Cac behavior with their ability to CHECK THEMSELVESE WHEN BEING CALLED OUT.
Hmm.. if they're telling their kids not to associate with you how are they in the space to be called out? I mean if you called out polish americans would they respond?

so a breh in Oakland and Mississippi share the same objectives as a breh in Ghana and Kenya? I'm not trying to humiliate or condescend, I'm fr asking

I get that. Of course “one culture, one political system, one economic system, etc.” is virtually impossible and a waste of time to try and align. Which is why I said we have to simplify and choose specific moments and causes.


I’m not saying we gotta live together and be in each other’s faces everyday but if you see me outside catching a worthy fade, jump in. IMO, the diaspora as a whole did a good job on “George Floyd” and “Donald Trump” this year. We gotta find a way to keep the energy.

Im glad you and @UpAndComing have experienced the opposite of what I have. Leaves room for hope
Frankly I can't see how you had a negative opinion of Africans in College or in the military. If there's a small group of Africans in school who do they generally click up with? white or Black people? You go to your average HBCU and it's usually around 30% foriegn Black. HBCU's are usually too expensive for ADOS people.

In the Military the same thing. I super duper FOB African may not know that much about ADOS but generally they click up with us.

fukk it you can say the same thing generally about Puerto Ricans at least in the sense of generally clicking up.

I swear I never heard an African in Africa or in american hating on ADOS like that. I promise the ones especially on the continent look up to ADOS.

This whole ADoS, FBA brings up some raises some interesting thoughts about race and culture.

Which connects people more race or culture? Does the average Black American have more in common with a black African who he (kinda) shares the same skin color with or with a White guy from the US who he shares the same culture with? :jbhmm:
Race supersedes everything and I hope these c00ns don’t find out the hard way:yeshrug:

That's too much like right. No other groups bush their homeland. All groups make gains in the states and abroad.


Exactly, alot of people are hustling backwards

I know so many Trinidadians and Guyanese who have never been to India, but keep their culture very in tact with their ancestor homeland

If we simply moved like that we'd be good. All these Indians where brought to Africa and the Carribean to do work that Africans and West Indians refused to do and they practice group economics and are coded the fukk up. They don't know shyt about India but they go over to get a wife if they need to. I aksed a Tanzanian Indian to Indians in India hate on African Indians he said No.
