Reminds me of 1950’s black American culture. No one has their ass hanging out and women aren’t looking like they just woke up. Also they’re actually speaking English. They’ve brainwashed the world to think America is the most racist place instead of what it actually is, the most tolerant!!!! Lmfao

No, we are not, how can you be one with us, when on your continent you are not one? No one has our back but our people and some Sòuth Africans but, not all maybe 7% but thays still better than the rest of the countries!

nobody in this thread mentions the elephant in the room responsible for why we as black ppl are disconnected , divided , poor and have to rely on the 'poisoned' media to understand each other. who owns the media ?

THIS is the media, that tells the Truth #COOPSCORNER

I’m not in a hurry to meet them,I’m black American

​@@jamessmith-xq9zi 😂😂😂😂 pretty sure feeling is mutual for most Africans

He was trying to explain that the older generation dont understand blacks due to limited exposure. Before the 1960s Kennedy student airlift, Kenyans had little interaction with blacks due to limited media access. Only the privileged few studying in the States had full access to black music, movies like Shaft, TV shows such as Sanford and Son and Different Strokes. Growing up, I listened to James Brown and Aretha Franklin on those colourfully labeled vinyls that my dad shipped back home. Funny they sounded better than bothh the cassette tape and CDs. No wonder I still love funk, soul and jazz music to date 😄😄 Of course, the culture started spreading beginning in 1963 after independence. Today, our generation and our children have extensive access to black culture through the internet, streaming services, social media, etc.

@@GOTravelhannelnah bro as an African American I can’t wait to meet more Africans so far I’ve only met one he was from Ghana and he was like my center director at my trade school and I was his favorite student lol and I would like to meet some African girls tooo they so pretty bro

As a African American some of us don’t like to identify with Africa because of that bs America showed us about Africa a few years back and plus some African Americans are ashamed of their African ness too there are so many reasons why some will just say they’re black Americans instead of African Americans because they don’t wanna associate themselves with Africa and it’s just crazy to me cause Africa and Africans are such beautiful people especially the women but that’s beside the point there’s so many things I could tell you as to why some of them don’t wanna identify with Africa some will even go above and beyond by saying they’re native Americans and it’s just wild to me 🤦🏾‍♂️ WE ARE ALL AFRICANS

​@@heismoraye: Thank you for your response. As a continental African who is also philosophically a Pan African I have love for all people, regardless of ideologies, of African descent. However, like I said in my initial comment, I find those who go out of their way to identify as anything other than African as slightly delusional. I use the adjective "slightly" because I believe that we are all on a journey and many of us need that "wake up call" before we realise exactly how this world works. For example, fifteen years ago I was delusional too. Lol. On a deeper level, I actually strongly believe that the term "African American" should be changed to "American African". The term African American essentially signifies what kind of American the descendants of the transatlantic enslavement are whereas the term "American African" signifies what kind of African the descendants of the transatlantic enslavement are. Likewise in the rest of black diaspora, black people would be referred to as Caribbean Africans, Brazilian Africans, British Africans etc. I'm a continental African. This word order emphasises the unity of people of African descent whereas terms like African American etc emphasise division. What do you think?

@@blackmagic6 oh i totally agree but even when we call ourselves African American I do agree we should just call ourselves all Africans if we’re black but if someone asks for our ethnicity we should go by African American for the ones who are African American but another thing why some African Americans don’t wanna be called African is because you have the white Africans and the amazigh people saying they’re more African than the entire diaspora and it’s crazy to me because I got told that literally just yesterday but besides all of that I agree with you

I am an AA woman and I use black American and African American both... I've found that many continental Africans living in the USA refer to themselves as AA and refer to non Continentals... as black Americans. I've even been asked why I call myself African American. As a result, I use "Black American" when speaking with Africans from the Continent.

​@@gretawoodson1451: Like I said I'm a continental African and whilst I stand by what I previously said (because I understand what people are insinuating when they use the phrase "African American"), I'm going to add something that you may find surprising or perplexing. It is my firm belief that Jessie Jackson got it wrong when he coined the phrase "African American." What he should have said was "American African". In the phrase "American African" the word "American" becomes the adjective that describes the type of African one is. Likewise in the Caribbean they should be described as Caribbean Africans. Or in Brazil .... Brazilian Africans etc. I describe myself as a Continental African. This word order stresses unity amongst all people of African descent. It shows that we are all Africans but come from different geographical locations. If an American African went to the continent of Africa and randomly introduced themselves as an American African ..... it would be much more powerful than saying that one is an African American (because this phrase describes what time of American one is). However, the term "African American" is not redundant. It was very interesting that you mentioned that you have interacted with continental Africans in the states who described themselves as "African Americans" ...... because in actual fact they are African American. The term African American actually describes continental Africans who have gone to American and become US citizens. In that phrase the word African is the adjective that describes the type of American they are. Similarly one would have French Americans, Spanish Americans, Chinese Americans etc. Finally, if the word order that I suggest is changed so that the descendants of the transatlantic enslavement adopted the description of American Africans, it would make a clear distinction between ADOS i.e. American Descendants of Slavery and Africans who become American citizens i.e. African Americans. It would prevent continental Africans, who have gained American citizenship from being confused on forms etc from any benefits for which only ADOS or American Africans are entitle to. I really hope this makes sense and I haven't caused any offence.

We’re SO much more than sports. But, salute.
