I am a Nigerian and I disagree that African American don't have a culture. You have. You have made something beautiful out of a chaotic situation and hands you were dealt with to create something unique for you. Of course there is bad and good in every culture but that is what makes it. Out of chaos you developed your style of dressing, slangs, music (hello) ' food and lots more. So yeah, I disagree that you don't have a culture. You do!. Am glad y'all made something beautiful out of a terrible situation good or bad, you created it and am proud of y'all.

​@@letstalkovercocktails 😊. Thanks for the reply. Just to add 'Akata' while literally means wild cat/panther. Contexually, it means 'acting brand new' like 'pretending to forget where you from b/c you been in the wild'. Nigerians in diaspora are sometimes called that. So a nigerian pretending not to speak his own language infront of others just to act cool, or pretending not to eat african foods or wear african attires etc may sometimes be called akata. So they will say 'she's acting like an akata'. Mostly it used when a form of pretence is sensed. Basically pretending to not know where you from to act cool but I think b/c most nigerians think black Americans are Africans & think we experience the same struggles, they then associate certain behavior as pretends not knowing history behind it. So if they see a black American use spoon to eat fufu for example, they say that person is an akata but its out of ignorance thinking every black persons know you use hands for that type of food. My thoughts all over the place but I hope my explanation helps. Bottomline is for akata to be used, the person must percieve a sense of pretence perhaps due to ignorance. Also anybody can be called that and its mostly not in a bad way but I won't say some don't use it in a bad way either. Its a word that can go either/or.

​@@gerardonochie3408This would be false. Our culture was easily seen and experienced until about 1980. Family, Church, marriage, food, music, sense of belonging and a future. What destroyed Black American culture was the importation of Crack Cocaine which obliterated Black families and Black ppl for almost 20 consecutive years. Along with removing good jobs from cities and putting millions of Black males in prisons and making sure they learned no trades for their 20 to 50 year sentences. Some of my friends got 360 years in prison. This is the part left out of these conversations.

When other people talk about culture they normally don't refer to most of the things you said, African Americans don't have a culture the same way White Americans don't have a culture. British or English people will tell you the same about White Americans, what's worse, is that White Americans who didn't have a culture created a cultureless Black American community that became worse than the white man who didn't have a culture. The culture in Black America is created by white masters, they determine for you when your culture must change, how to present your music and select who must present that culture. Africans, Arabs, Asians have a clearly defined culture, when we get married, when we burry our dead, when a child is born, traditional dances, traditional songs etc, etc... and those are things Black and White Americans don't have and that is the culture we are talking about.

Generalization is bad but how ever, there are too many black american women who built a KZfaq/Facebook page on stereotyping African men as needy and they should make sure he is rich before they consider dating them. Even with that, the are still concerned of the African guy leaving after getting greencard. My conclusion is, I think American men blend better with African women but the vice versa is more problematic because Black American women greencard are their defense line for their bad character. The good ones work, but most of them are bad. Stay away from them. Even the black american men don't really like them because of their character. Red flag to identify; tattoos, piercing extremely cosmetic, single parent, unmarried after 30....watch out for these. Not all are bad but most

African American music expressions have influenced music all over the world with salient examples all over Africa, S Korea, Japan and the U.K. If you have ever heard of “the Talk”, it is part of African American culture to educate their young ones on police brutality and racism.

Today, I am a born-again Christian. I am a widower, and I don't date. In my dating days, I was fearful of Black American women. This is because I am Igbo. Our culture is very conservative. It is very ordered and somewhat predictable. As much as I have always interacted with fairly polished and educated Black American women, I always had this fear of surprises. I was concerned about the upbringing. I have somewhat changed. I think social media is opening me up. I just recently viewed content from a young Black American woman. I found her so impressive as a person that if I were twenty years younger, I would be laying out my strategy to win her. In fact, I am praying she finds that very special man. She is seeking a relationship with a Nigerian man, and I hope she finds the right one.

As an African American woman who often travels back and forth to Nigeria, this is utter nonsense! I urge the host to travel and make her way throughout Nigeria then come back to the table for discussion. Not only we as AA have culture but you will see the root of our culture comes out of the motherland and we are 1 of the same. Let’s educate ourselves around the board, this is why the “certain groups” who want us divided keep us divided with grandiloquent language like this 👀

Don’t have a culture? The interviewer is as smart as a box of rocks. One 2 second search on the internet would allow her to understand the definition of culture. Blacks do have culture. It may not be highly esteemed, but it’s everything from the way they speak, the names the call their kids (which are unique - you can easily spot “black names”), to the food and music they listen to. I’m truly baffled she, as a black woman, would say something like that.

There's no one answer to this question. I've met some really awesome American sisters who I would have married if not for the relocation issue. Most Africans who plan on moving back to Africa in the future would have a hard time relocating an American woman and her kids back to Africa. So, the man would have to go back to Africa alone and remarry over there if he's really determined to move back. I've seen African men "stuck" in America due to marrying AAs, white, Filipina and Hispanic women. The issue isn't really about anything wrong with Black American women, the issue is just a logistic issue.

Hell, many of us African Americans, African peoples in the diaspora, are from the yoruba tribe. I wish there was more understanding between us instead of judgment or perpetuating stereotypes. Some of Nigeria/Nigerians face very similar issues in their communities/cultural context. And, there's plenty of African American women & Nigerian men who are happily married.

Akata means Panther, because the first time Nigerians were exposed to African American was through Fela Kuti the creator of Afrobeat. When he came to NYC, he was hosted by the Black Panther movement. When he return to Nigeria, he changed his style to revolutionary music. Back then Nigerians assume all African Americans are members of the Black Panther Movement and the loved it. Akata is a Yoruba word Panther. It's the other tribes telling their African American friends that it means Animal because they don't know the roots or the meaning.

All Skin Folks Are Not Kin Folk. Most of the host's opinions reflect a willfully ignorant and desperately thirsty perspective of African American lifestyles. Self hate has apparently & overwhelmingly influenced her beliefs about African American culture. Actually, I find it incredulous that she, herself, believes what came out of her mouth. It had to be about garnering views and subscribers.

On top of it all I told him I’m excited to know when the time comes we will be moving back to his village. My husband’s culture is my culture, we are one now. All I want is to make him the happiest man on this earth until Christ comes. I’m so in love with him until I wish I could stand on a mountain top and tell the world.

Informative! The Nigerian brother is very intelligent and insightful. The host is entreatable. Her humility enables her extract information. She is equally brilliant. I don't think Nigerians dislike Black Americans. It's simply about perceptions, trust, and culture. Personally, I have difficulty communicating with Black Americans. The first time I encountered a Black American male, I was eager to connect because I felt we had a kindred spirit. I found him to be guarded. It was almost as if he was suspicious of me. Over the years, I discovered he wasn't the exception. Black Americans have their perception of Africans. I don't necessarily know the roots of these notions but especially among the men, it makes a close relationship a challenge. The American experience of the Black brother can be very confining. He has adapted based on historical and circumstantial lessons. The truth is that the world is far bigger than America. Blacl men in particular will benefit from travel outside the shores of this country. With the women, it's less of a problem. They have their stereotypes of Africans, but they seem to be more inquisitive. They are women at the end of the day. If they find a man attractive, they will take the risk. Black Americans women tend to be take charge. They feel they can get the man to align with their program. They will be quick to point out to an African man that they will not be subjected to the traditional role - their notion of the role of women. This is where the problem lies on both sides. The Nigerian man, in particular, is groomed to be a leader. Nobody is going to push him around. He demands respect from his woman. He will treat her like the queen only when he is convinced she is willing to cooperate. Just like their Black American brother, they feel that they have options. It's very rare that a man will disintegrate because he can not have a particular woman. I have personally met Black American women that are marriage ready. They are strong Christians. Their faith makes them a little more submissive and willing to be subject to a man. I think that we are living in a time that women as a whole are reconsidering feminism. They are weighing their options. Nigerian men are beginning to marry African American women. This is the result of pentecostal Christianity. It is breaking barriers. A man is destined by God to be a leader. He is a groom. He should be able to positively influence his woman. People don't come perfect. Love is a most effective shaping tool.

Why are you practicing a religion that isn't of your culture? Look here. How are you folks always bragging on your culture this and that but you uphold that British Western culture, worship a white Jesus, and practice a religion your people never invented? That Nigerian is an arrogant and an entitled bigot and that woman failed to promote her culture in a positive light because she is self loathing. Black Americans have a culture, and Black American women aren't chasing down African men for marriage. In fact, the opposite is happening that African men are aggressively pursuing Black American women for dating and mating as well as their own women. I never had to pursue or convince an African nowhere to date me at all. And I recently had two aggressively pursuing me! Again, we have our own culture and it is imitated the whole world over. At least parts of it. No one from Africa who got colonized by Euros and Asians and influenced by them cannot sit there arrogantly as if they were not impacted and they retained their culture 100% when they didn't and many outright reject certain aspects of their culture. You aren't going to preach to me about culture this and that when you fleeing to other countries and not using that great culture to build your own nation and it hasn't corrected your corruption or your tribalism! Get out of here with that!

While @Nosh gave the literal meaning of "Akata", he didn't quite explain in what context it is being applied to African American. First, Akata is also used to imply all Nigerians residing overseas, specifically Nigerians visiting Nigeria from any of the Western Countries and showing off a western vibe. Secondly, Akata as applied to African Americans is not derogatory in any sense. It simply means he/she is brother/sister born and raised in America, and not a naturalized migrant African residing in America. We see those black radio shows who got this so wrong, speculating that Nigerians think poorly of African Americans. If nothing, majority of Nigerians want to be like African Americans and will often emulate their lifestyles. It's 2023 and majority of Nigerians now calved a niche for themselves, a new lifestyle that's fast gaining worldwide acceptance. Check out Nigerian music, fashion and mannerisms. We good like that.

As African, I always see American culture as predominantly African American culture. You have a culture, just like Carribeans have and so forth. And I will add to say, don't believe African cultures are safe from other influences, via Islam, Christianity, colonisation and so forth. But ultimately, I think we're all stuck with what is actually culture ? It's dynamic, it does change, mute, borrow to adapt. The Nigerian man in front of you, has a different culture from his ancestors few centuries ago, they would probably not identity with a lot things. For example religion. The same way you dislike the use of your culture in the American capitalistic environment, the same I dislike part of African cultures. The only difference is yours has a big zoom on it.

Nice interview! I like the emphasis on the fact that that the opinions are not applicable to all Afro Americans and Nigerians. What I do know is, many Nigerians do have it at the back of their minds that they're going to return back to Nigeria some day, but its usually difficult to find Afro Americans who wants to go all the way hence why you are not seeing a lot of marriages happening between the two. Regarding "knacking", this generation of nigerian women are very expressive too...and I'm talking about married women as well! Also, the cultural barriers are collapsing! There is a new breed of Nigerians who are not faced by the cultural difference! Regarding the word AKATA, it waa never intended as a derogatroy word. I think many Afro Americans are taking it out of context. The Afro americans were first called Akata in the 60s/70s! I'm talking about era of the black panther, when African Americans were leading the emancipation of black people all over the world. I still don't understand why it is now perceived as derogatory!

43:09 The general reason why Nigerian men hesitate to marry American women is because we think Americans in general do not take marriage seriously , are quick to opt out , do not cope well with structure and extended family this is the summary . The cultural differences . As a Nigerian I am not certain an American woman will be able to hold a family long term ,she could leave anytime even if things are going well . Another big issue is structure , an American woman will not be comfortable in the traditional family structure . It also seems like celebrities lead the culture in America which is detrimental to marriages . Others could include differences in perceived moral values or standards . Even if she’s a good person , she may do what the american system allows her to do like divorce just because she can and not because things are that bad . Besides that they are cool individuals but these reasons cast doubts on long term viability. I dated an AA for about 2 years , I grew to like her however i just wasn’t confident enough to take it further (long term) . American women are cute and likable as friends but for someone that takes marriage seriously it’s a big decision , a huge risk. Except if she’s the type of person that knows how to make a man 1000 % confident about her . These are my thoughts / observations

Your response is pretty silly lol. There is no woman on the PLANET who divorces a man “just because she can” 😂 A woman will divorce a man because he’s either abusive mentally and or physically, distant, lazy, confrontational and mean, a cheater (and we all know Nigerian men are notorious for being cheaters), someone who could care less about providing for her emotional needs because he’s only all about himself, and so on and so forth. It’s not just about bringing home a paycheck dude! It’s about bringing home ALL OF YOU. You are suppose to contribute more than just a check in a healthy, functional relationship. American women, as opposed to traditional Nigerian women understand that…. they MATTER just as much as a man does. Her position isn’t to be the servant of the house, but to be an equal and respected partner. So if this mentality supposedly makes American women " not marriage material” then….. THANK GOD 😂😂😂

As a Nigerian woman, I really enjoyed this interview. I would love to see African Americans marry Nigerians/Africans and have their children learn more about African culture. This will enable us close the divide and resolve some underlying negative issues prevailent in the African American communtity. Just as Nigerians have a lot of love to give African Americans, we need all the love in marriage, in friendship, in business from African Americans. I love the host for those tough questions and NOSH's honest answers.

I understand the host when she said, “African Americans do not have a culture”. As Nigerians, we can identify a person’s tribe by their looks, clothes, Names, and accents. Our tribes are unique, and our cultures are very different although you may find a few similarities the differences are so vast. Our meals, looks, names, languages, festivals, history, houses, masquerades, and traditional religions are different. Our forms of communication, greetings, proverbs, and gestures are unique. The Rich, Poor, and middle class exist. Many Nigerians in the US can be from any of such backgrounds. Most Nigerians who hustle so hard are those from poor backgrounds. Nigerians also have a middle ground because, for a country of over 500 unique languages and over 300 tribes, we communicate in English, Most Nigerians understand “Pidgin English” which is our preferred means of communication. Marriage is sacred for Nigerians, we do about three weddings to marry a woman as a wife. The court wedding, the church, and the traditional wedding. We don’t do divorce, for most of it, Marriage is until death do you part. I think another reason Nigerians don’t take AA women seriously is because of divorce, and the divorce laws in America. A divorced man in Nigeria can foot the bills of his kids without paying child support, the Kids can stay with whichever parent is financially stable.

This type of question is when I know someone is very naive to American culture. Hispanic and White women play around with the same word, and just like some negative racial words can be used in a new definition, some women may use this as a term that means strong or a feminist. And majority of ALL American women do not even refer to themselves as this. You are regurgitating “pop” culture and trends.

Victim of the stereotype is so true 😢😔praying for all the Native American people who are not wild panthers but instead indigenous people to this land🙏🏽 and for the African American people that were sold brought here from Africa I pray for you too and hope that one day together the native indigenous American Indian’s and the African American people one day come together to heal from the trauma of what our ancestors went through along with the suffering and that we overcome any obstacles that may come so that we can finally be happy again and not stereotyped to ourselves because it does not matter anymore what others think of us anymore, it matters what we think of ourselves and how well we do and overcome because as far as it’s kept it was the Africans who sold us off to the American pagan, ways. They sold there own african people to America this is why african American people today are wild so that makes the African indigenous people accountable as well for this, they are essentially considered wild panthers and are simply looking at themselves when they see african Americans the way they are today and tomorrow and so they are not looking at the world instead only themselves.

I saw the channel mention in a comment about how its not a culture others/many can relate to. I think part of that is also how far out the US is from the rest of the world. Whereas in continents such as Africa, Europe, or Asia the countries are more connected sharing more similarities. It's likely also more easier and affordable for people to relocate or visit all over it. Whereas north America is a lot more disconnected from the rest of the world, leading to a more different culture and one that others may find less relatable. Though to me that's okay, being unique is also good. 😊
