So me and my brothers are first generation American, but everyone else in our family is Jamaican. Even though I've lived my entire life in the US, I identify with my Jamaican culture exponentially more. I love being around Jamaican people, stay listening reggae, and Ox tails and rice and peas is a classy meal :ohlawd:

Honestly I think the real reason I identify with my Jamaican culture more than my American one is because of how fukked up cacs have been to us. All the black American heroes I look up to, but all the white american heroes i can give 2 fukks about.

Just some shyt a nikka thinking bout when he's high :obama:

This. Never let the cacs take the word. They're not even American, they're European.

Being American has nothing to do with apple pie, hot dogs and baseball. That's cacness, let's identify it appropriately.

Jamaican culture>>>>>> cacness.

I don't identiy with either culture to be quite honest. I only care about my own culture that i formed exclusively to myself over the years. It may or may not have some adopted values of the American and African culture i grew up around, but i don't really idenitfy completely with either of them.
