@UpAndComing: The Transatlantic Slave trade was a myth.

[frush11]

dig that I meant we can always question the narrative I’m in no way speaking as an expert and I do respect the middle passage. Anything’s in question when it comes to how we got here whether it’s from Africa or the grounds of MississippI. I don’t trust no cacs version of my own story. My great grandmothers nem told us we’re Choctaw and nothing else

Why do people not know Mississippi and all these places belong to other Euro nations before, they were part of the US.

And they had a history that included African people brought there by the French and Spanish. And maybe some of them people got with some natives

I swear

Arent any black people native americans. Some of us have a percentage of native amerucan, but we're majority african.

This is pseudo dog whistle

Your opinion means nothing to me.

 

[TheKongoEmpire]

It's embarrassing for a supposed black adult to believe this nonsense

Don't forget:

• The Moors
• Copper-colored Aborigine
• Hebews
• Israelites
• Hebrew Israelites

Am I forgetting anything else? These kneegrows sound worse than dominicans. My goodness.

 

[TheKongoEmpire]

Your opinion means nothing to me.

You have any genetic proof on whatever your assertions might be? Any scientific papers or studies? Anything?

 

[TheKongoEmpire]

This "we gotta question everything" is silly, pseudo talk. Stop it breh. And you trust them cacs everyday when you get that food out your kitchen, drive your vehicle, take that medicine, type on that phone or laptop, and everything else. You trust cacs just fine.

Don't forget the biggest thing: CHRISTIANITY

Don't forget the biggest thing: CHRISTIANITY

The internet too.

 

[The God Poster]

Bro bought into that conspiracy theory. I think rapper B.o.B bought into it too. Before he was a flat earther Bob was a slave trade denier.

Obviously it's false but I give @UpAndComing some grace. He a solid poster for the most part.

You lost all credibility

If you think your ancestry, as a Black American, started here in the Americas, then take a DNA test and display the results.

My people have been here since the early 1700, but I know they originally came from various areas of West Africa. My DNA shows it, and my actual appearance shows it. My wife people have been here since the early 1800, and she looks like she is East African. Still, her DNA shows 91% combined West African ethnicities compared to my 88% combined West African ethnicities. So we both know our ancestry according to DNA science.

If you really think you are native to here in the US, prove it with DNA science.

This is the same as, if we came from Africa how do we speak English.
Or if we came from Africa how come there's people in Africa..

 

[Sauce and Footwork]

I have also read they came before Columbus and very familiar with Ivan Van Sertima. He has written extensively on the slave trade and there isn’t any doubt in his mind it happened as there is plenty of hard evidence. He has written about it and spoken about it publicly . He just said there were also Africans who sailed here (Mali one of those places) and many of us were already in the country. He is not negating the slave trade. So your main source of proving your point (Ivan Van Sertima, the author of “they came before Columbus disagrees with you completely that it never happened. Respectfully you have absolutely nothing to back this claim. Not actual evidence. 99% of the most famed African scholars (people with degrees and far advanced education who gave their lives to research about the black and African diaspora completely believe the slave trade happened. With all due respect I don’t think you even have a degree in history. Not trying to insult you either fam. Just educate you. That’s like saying space is fake , when nasa astronauts are some of the smartest people in the world . Physicist who understand math and science. And been there. It’s impossible to surpass them in that knowledge.

The Hebrew shyt is more egregious because they completely disregard the actual Black Hebrew tradition here in the states

The word “black” really got these fools acting like color struck bytches. Pray for their ancestors.

Absolutely not all I have is advice for people to look into their own family tree. They may or may not be surprised.

At least 99% of the black people that post here will have the same results you mentioned using a geneologyz test

Anybody who believes in that or pushes that belief, more often than not, is usually ashamed of having African ancestry but also has this weird desperation to be associated with America above all else.

It kinda falls in line with the whole ADOS/FBA shyt where you're ignoring the fact of descending from Africa and making exaggerating efforts in tying one's whole being and existence to America as some form of American Nationalism.

As Malcolm X stated himself, as I quote, “We're not Americans, we're Africans who happen to be in America. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from Africa. We didn't land on Plymouth Rock - that rock landed on us.”

A few more quotes of his that shed some light that can be relatable to this topic.

“No, I am not an American. I’m one of the 22 million black people who are the victims of Americanism; one of the 22 million black people who are the victims of democracy, nothing but disguised hypocrisy.

“So, I’m not standing here speaking to you as an American, or a patriot, or a flag-saluter, or a flag-waver. No, not I. I am speaking as a victim of this American system, and I see America through the eyes of the victim. I don’t see any American dream; I see an American nightmare.”

Although those quotes are from a different era, they still hold truth today, but a lot of Black people have subconsciously become indoctrinated in American patriotism/nationalism that, in reality, doesn't serve any purpose as a Black man or woman.

My mentality has always been that being Black, based on what we know about America, past and present, and being patriotic to the red, white, and blue in the long run has no benefits. I feel like Black people who do fall into that trap have been indoctrinated by American propaganda; it's one thing to be born somewhere without your own doing, and it's another to be kissing the flag after acknowledging the ills and terror America has done to your people.
