Waka Flocka says "I have no African descent in my blood. I'm Native American"

[StarGirl]

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.

Yeah, it’s really insulting to the legacy that made AAs who they are today. But I think that’s just a testament to the atrocities that occurred generationally. Talk to people from the islands, it’s almost always the same thing. They were there already, we came down from a ladder in the sky. I see it this way. If these fairytales help people feel better, what’s the harm in that?

The thing that’s most insulting to our ancestors is the fact that many of us believe in the story of their enslavers word for word.

I'm from Jamaica, and I have NEVER heard another Jamaican say black people were always there. I have no issue with people telling themselves lies to make them feel better or unique, it reminds me of transgendered people who say they are the opposite sex. It harms no one but it just looks stupid...in fact i think trannies make more sense

Well, a majority of the ones I’ve met in NYC sure do like to say these things. That and they’re Taíno/Arawak. Sound familiar?

You mean Puerto Rican's and Dominicans. The DR point has been heavily discussed you can do you own research. And Puerto Rican's are well known to being triracial

No no. I mean Jamaicans. I’m speaking of encountering Jamaicans who claim to be the extinct native people of Jamaica. But not only Jamaicans- other islanders as well. I never ask people these questions, but they tend to tell you. It seems everyone happens to descend from people who weren’t African/slaves. It’s interesting how that works.

Yo lets gets some sources, I might be learning something new breh!!!

I think it's a lot of dialogue disconnect in here. When the term black is used by most people it usually means of African decent not Afro-American.

Since Some Native American had African features, influences, and customs that would make them of African descent or what we use now as "black".

Also you guys should check out They came before Columbus. It's about Africans in America before Columbus. Mansa Musa was believed to travel to America during his reign...

I wouldnt even know where to start breh. Do I start with ow there were brehs running Europe before cacs came to America? Do I start with how "Indians" were taken to Africa and Europe as slaves?

They try to relegate black people to Africa, but there were indigenous black people EVERYWHERE. From Europe, to Asia, to America...

So to you, black people would revolt if they found out they are the actually natives? Not for being treated subhuman for nearly 400 years? Just because they will found out they're not African?


fukking clown. Go get some help.

You negged over that?

Yes if black people found out that the land they're in and being oppressed in was theirs before it was cacs, they would revolt. Thats why they'll never be told that till they have to be told. And not only that, but there are blacks here that came over from Europe as well. And that would open up a whole other can of worms if they found out that they were ruling in Europe too. History is taught in false narratives that shape race relations. This kind of information would turn society upside down....

But I get it you faux pro blackity blacks just hop on the internet to talk shyt. Not actually learn anything concerning your origins unless it comes from the hands of cacs

 

[humble Hermit]

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

What genentic markers would that fall under? Through DNA we can determine the genetic community of a person. Where are the markers showing up for this type of group? Or are they being suppressed at the lab?Saying that you could ascend from an earlier group who arrived at least 400 years earlier than the trans Atlantic slave trade, would surely be presented somewhere in the world through artifacts, linguistics and/or DNA...with DNA being the strongest.
Knowledge of self doesn't stop at assumptions or half truths. Keep searching until you can solidify your assumptions until then, it's merely a feel good concept

Never in my life have I heard this and half of my family is from Jamaica. There weren't even any Arawak in Jamaicanaybe something about you attracts ppl who believe in pseudo history . And are you actually meeting people born and raised in Jamaica?
Because in the Nonhispanic Caribbean we hardly mention the natives and we sure as hell don't identify as such . To generalize like that is a straight out lie

The History of Jamaica

The original inhabitants of Jamaica are believed to be the Arawaks, also called Tainos. They came from South America 2,500 years ago and named the island Xaymaca, which meant ““land of wood and water”. The Arawaks were a mild and simple people by nature. Physically, they were light brown in colour, short and well-shaped with coarse, black hair. Their faces were broad and their noses flat.

I don’t wanna go back and forth. Just educate yourself and your people so I won’t be back here repeating the dumb sh*t they say.

The arawaks originate in South America and Taino lived in the Greater Antilles. There's nothing you can tell me about my people so don't generalize based off your isolated anecdotes.

that was embarrassing

I sourced a Jamaican government website for you to eliminate bias.

But like I said, I’m not personally invested. Great chatting with you.
