While I think he's obviously ignorant of his history, I am interested in the existence of indigenous black native Americans. 
Waka Flocka says "I have no African descent in my blood. I'm Native American"

Never said believe me, in fact I didn't even say that was fact. I said it was believed!!! If you have sources please drop, so that I can come correct. I'm not above learning...No he wasn't. This is my problem with this thread, people just make up false stories or push fake ones to prove their point. And if they can't prove it, "can't believe cac history brehs but believe ME"

Yeah I looked it up, I was definitely wrong. It still doesn't take away from the point I was trying to convey... Thank you for the link.

I think a lot of y’all are confused by the message. Most of us are past that I got Indian in my blood shyt. When someone with a little knowledge of self says they may have some NA in them, they’re saying they descended from black people that came here before Columbus. That doesn’t mean anybody is denying their blackness or African ancestry. Africa is a white mans label anyway

Came from Hidden Colors. Phil Valentine said that Mansa Musa left Africa and colonized Mexico under the identity of Montezuma.
By far the most pseudo claim in the movie
That and the Big Ben being named after Ben bennaker
Black is a white mans label.
If we want to take it there lets just go by what our ancestors called themselves.
My only thing if i find it interesting that for the the people formerly known as African Americans
, there is no traces of language or written text or any artifiacts from this mythical kingdom.At the end lf the day though i got no confusion about who or what I am so more power to those who are trying to figure out who they are but Im not going to tolerate people dismissing the documented brutality my ancestral aunts uncles and cousins went through.

I don’t know where my ancestors came from. My history pre slavery has been erased. If I’m not mistaken aren’t you Liberian? If that’s true than of course it’s easier for your to know who you are. You have that luxury. Once again, I’m not denying the slave trade and I’m not denying my African roots. I’m just not trusting white men with my identityBlack is a white mans label.

Liberian is a nationality, I’m American. Like i said do what you gotta do to find out who you are but Im not going to tolerate anyone trying to dimiss what I know people I had blood relation went through.
People want to dismiss “white science” when its convient. If any one thinks the transatlantic slave trade was some sort of complex thing that it couldnt happen then they arent someone worth conversing with.
Funny enough people will call dark skin native americans black because it fits their narrative yet wont call a Patel Indian darker than them and everyone they love black because it aint sexy.
I'm legit interested in learning more about this. My parents are from Africa so I have no dog in this fight, but I could see white people denying that black people came to America before them.

I’m not denying anything either. I can trace my ancestry right back thru my great grandparents right here in MD. My people built this country and their blood is in this soil
Thats fine and dandy, like I said I’m not going to tolerate people dismissing what I know people I share blood with went through.
If you feel how you say feel then my words should not impact you.
There's that big ass continent were 700+ million blacks are at tho, no matter its name.

The trans Atlantic slave Trade was definitely real. I just don’t believe it was their only source of slaves initially. It’s documented that they attempted to enslave the people already here. Cacs always deflect and say our ancestors us sold us to them. They are trying to say we are equally to blame for slavery. That sounds a lot better than them enslaving people on their own landI'm legit interested in learning more about this.
