OPINION Black against the world

we're the most imitated group of people on the fucking planet and we dont embrace our identity...

the entire hip-hop culture that has successfully been dramatically been impacting trends over the world for the past 30 yeas does not originate in africa.. it originates in the black ghettos of america.

our symbolism of rebels with the black panthers still resonates today....our music our fashion our style..all things that illustrate our experience here are often duplicated...

niggaz in africa be tryna dress like niggaz in america, and niggaz in america be tryna be liek niggaz in africa...

shit hilarious...


ain't no african tupac......at least jamaica got bob marley.....
so Fela Kuti don't exist?

this divide n conquer is sad as shit
 
I think I have a different perspective because I was raised in both the Caribbean and here. So the differences are so clear isnā€™t funny. African people are as different worldwide as Chinese people. It is almost different cultures. One is not better than the other but it is different and we should try to embrace it. I mean no disrespect but some of you and your views are as foreign to me as other races and for the most part we are all black. One of the reasons I post is to see and express our differences and try to learn and understand to be a better human. Now there are a lot of things that I donā€™t need to understand more because they will always remain foreign but it at least teaches me that the people that engage in those things arenā€™t bad people even if I disagree with what they engage in.
 
I think the dude in the op is a fucking joke. Like black Jamaicans got there from slavery they had slave rebellions. Just because England ended slavery in 1830 and US 1865 dont mean nothing. Brazil ended slavery in like 1890 something. All the blacks still oppressed in these countries. Still have a deep euro influence.

I dont expect people to all get along or have deep connections but i dont like blacks going at each other over who can manage oppression better.
 
From a historical point of view, around1800s to the late 1960s Africans and African Americans worked hand in hand despite of geographical barriers and some social conditions respectively. Tunde Adeleke eloquently asserts that ā€œadvocates of Black Nationalism and Pan-Africanism built their ideology and movement, that is, their appeal for black unity across Atlantic space, largely on African considerations shared culture, history, and experience.ā€11 From Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois to Kwame Nkrumah, these leaders spearheaded Black Nationalism and Pan-Africanism.

I said from the jump I gotta learned bias based off of my numerous personal experiences....

Them dudes ain't never seen up front the disgust in a person's face when they realize you aren't from Africa yet have an African name.

I know I joke a lot, but I know that look of disgust all too well. I've seen it well over 100 times...easily

I even look for it, hoping that maybe this one person....maybe this African person won't finch up their face....

But...damn near every time:scust:
