There’s a serious war going on right now regarding Kamala Harris blackness and her lineage

[ultraflexed]

LOL. You are the one who loves Tariq. I don't follow him or care about him like that.

I don't know what she is -- but she clearly is lost in the sauce -- and should not be speaking about reparations.

You have to ask yourself -- why is it either non-ADOS or Black Americans who are the rare/unique people always allowed pieces/op-eds at these publications?

Exactly..but get mad when we put our foot on there throat

 

[Reece]

Stfu and keep AfrAms / ADOS out ya fukking mouth.

Nobody gives af about your mom being lightskin!

First of all I said my aunt and my uncle you stupid crusty bytch. You fukking c*nt. Learn reading comprehension. I hope you get hit by a bus with your dumb ass. You a disrespectful piece of garbage.

Divide us from what????

Motherfukkers who don't share our lineage and don't have our same specific claim and needs??

From people who will experience the same kind of racism and discrimination

 

[Budda]

Stupid argument..

Is their a uniform Ados culture, and if their is what is it exactly, from the food, music etc can someone explain? Because the culture is build around being descendants of Africans?

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Ya'll caped for Obama, and he had a similar background

Don't backtrack now

Caped? No. Once he got that Oprah endorsement and being a senator based in Chicago, he was ushered in plus it’s a different time. The only two things certain on Earth is death and change. I find it odd, you’re amused at AAs looking out for their own like how everyone else can.

 

[Budda]

I find it funny because white Americans don’t make the distinctions, apart from maybe the Italians and Irish everyone is assimilated into one big group for the most par

You’re lineage and what comprises you is way bigger and longer than 300 years house boy.

Is there any "uniform culture?" -- LOL

No, it's built around enslaved Africans who were sold into slavery and enslaved in America -- and who they and their descendants -- had to create their own culture.

Jamaicans get to be proud of who they are. Haitians get to be proud of who they are. Cubans, Mexicans, and I can go on and on.

But as soon as Descendants of American Slavery (the same folks that shytty ass foreigners look down for whatever foolish reasons) try to get their own strictly for them now it’s we all black.

Despicable. However, I know the game but I really hope more folks that share a similar ilk know it as well.

 

[Artenche]

Exactly. As it should. We are all different ethnicities/cultures/lineages. You and I are not the same -- just cause we have Black skin, deal with racism -- and ancestors are from Africa.

To not allow Black Americans to have and lay claim to their ethnicity - which is unique is not cool -- and it doesn't show respect.

Divide as in fighting amongst each other over levels of blackness.

Black people are not a monolith but that diversity should and can be celebrated. Divide and conquer is not a mentality that favors a group of people that does not have the numbers or means.

This is not about "Blackness" honey -- it's about lineage/ethnicity.

I don't understand why you don't get this.

We have a right to be a unique/separate ethnicity - just like every other Black person. By you not respecting that -- shows you don't respect us. And you allow everyone to celebrate their diversity and culture/ethnicity -- but us. Cause you think it's divisive -- cause you experience racism too. That's Crazy.

This is not true. American descendants of slaves have every reason to be proud of who they are and it has been celebrated in the culture for years. In a world that tries to teach that white is better Black American people have to be tough.

You call it divisive and divide and conquer though?

Drawing from influences from their ancestors no? It’s why African Americans eat okra and Jamaicans eat ackee, it’s funny because Jamaicans will argue their not Africans while having a quarter of their newly formed dialects patios derive from various African languages, what makes Ados unique is that, you had African slaves from different parts of the west and centre come together as one new people..

But this isn’t even a new thing, if we want to be truly pedantic, yorubas igbos you name it can boast of the exact same thing if they truly knew their history, Akans eat jollof rice from Senegal and wear Nigeria inspired garments, all groups have links with mali and Timbuktu, migration and amalgamation of cultures and ethnicities amongst even west Africans isn’t new, so your point about trying to separate and establish Ados as a whole separate entity is a fair one, but how long can it last, black gravitate and borrow from other blacks, so the Jamaican American biggie smalls becomes the biggest rapper in the world, 20 years later the Canadian American drake does the same, who really cares, when it comes down to it?

Don’t argue with them. They’re not fools. They’re trying to control the narrative because said people will not reap the benefits like Affirmative Action and the Civil Rights Act.

Let Jamaicans get reparations from the UK, I guarantee you won’t see AAs trying to fukk up their bag.

If anything, you know it’s real when the powers that be are making a concerted effort to deter the conversation without flat out saying fukk you ******s. I believe if AAs get theirs, it will set off a chain reaction around the world.
