You know what I’m going to be honest. I can spot an African immigrant from a black American citizen. That’s what I mean we just don’t look like them. Alot of my fam look like this.
Not sure what I'm looking at here black people with straight hair? We have that in Africa
Black people with Grey green blue eyes, we have that in Africa
Black people with freckles and moles? We have that in Africa
I mean no disrespect to your and your family, you are definitely free to identify yourself as you see right, and I champion that notion to the fullest. I also agree that a lot of black people in America can trace their bloodline to indigenous people.
I disagree that Africans have a 'look' they have a way they dress, walk, talk, eat and set mannerisms depending on what region in Africa they have migrated from and depending on which country colonized them, all these influences would set them apart for sure. However 500 years ago, the Africans that came to America were very different to the Africans that have migrated there in the last 2 decades or so. And I will leave it at that.
