ehhhhhhhh im not rollin bruh.
You say "West Africa" like that shit doesn't consist of like 15+ whole ass different countries... each having their own cultures, traditions and histories.
You got folks that didn't go through what black people went through that can trace their families back generation after generation after generation down to the villages/towns they came from.
We dont have that luxury and never will.... not even if a DNA test tells us... we're from "West Africa"
That's why I can understand why some of us latch onto that "We were kings/queens" mantra... or the "we are the true Israelites/Hebrews etc."
It's not about us wanting to feel "special"... its about our our history that was STOLEN from us.... and us searching for that stolen history & culture
