OPINION Foundational/FBA/ADOS vs. Black Immigrants

You won’t address the fact that you think no black American should ever voice their opinion about something that black folks from other countries are “cool with”?

OK.

You can’t police folks about their own culture.

That’s some extra white shit

Name the 'many' FBA men and women who undermined the ppl over there, called them names and disrespected their village/tribes

bruh this argument ur posing is pointless.

explain to me why black immigrants in america wouldn't speak out against FBA affiliates when they make it their mission to exclude them.

i wanna see all this evidence of bad immigrant mentality against black americans. something more solid in proof than a bunch of tweets.

because based on what's been presented, the evidence doesn't seem prolific and all-pervading enough to justify the formation of an entire nationalist group.

it hurts for some americans to hear and believe me, i don't want to generalize, but if there's one overriding resentful trait many of us feel about americans, it's their high and mighty self-interest. it's living in a bubble. you constantly hear how great, exceptional and better than everyone else u are u begin to have blind patriot faith in it.

Still can’t believe black Americans was outrage about Adele indulging herself and Jamaican Culture.

I can. But I’m in a unique place where people don’t need to be politically correct in fear of losing something like a job and are not living in America or their home country so that influence or experience isn’t there.
So when I chat with people it’s raw

White women touched by the islands are so common I didn't even kno' Adele caused a stir. Its white women like that all over the place nothin' to get bent out of shape over

Anyway its the same as Eminem wearin' baggy jeans it's just not a big deal at all.
 
I don’t think folks really got bent out of shape but we didn’t understand why folks started coming at Americans because we thought it was goofy
 
As with all English speakin' non Americans I've consumed a lot of American media and the impression I get is that African Americans barely consider us black. Its like we not really black or not "black black".

Africans are always getting made fun of in African American media. Jamaicans always portrayed in the same way.

Ima be real I think it's crazy that so many of you think we on the outside disrespect African Americans when it's so clear it's the other way around, but then you guys have that American exceptionalism stuff goin' on so it's not surprisin' I guess

I know it's not your intentions but if this relates to the Adele situation this is low-key arrogant

It’s about white people in general. Like we had members of Congress kneel in kente cloth fir votes. So I view all white folks real funny when they do shit like that. Now I don’t think she was pandering and that’s probably just random but their is a line somewhere.

But we shouldn’t been expecting uk and Jamaicans to have the same zeal we have. It’s not like y’all co sign blackface and those Twitter takes are not reality.

The thing we thought the shit was just jokes. I don’t know if some of our parents said don’t date Africans or Islanders. But I’ve heard niggas that live in large cities say wild shit about Africans. Saying they stink and shit a bad hair day and they look African. And I think a lot of this “immigrants don’t like us” is a response to the American ignorance
 
Niggas let white and Mexicans say nigga and adopt their culture

but Adele showing love to her boyfriend s culture was an issue?
