why is this so important to you if you arent even AA?
because I live in black skin and on the same planetthe better question would be: why cant NON AAs define their blackness with out comparing themselves to AAs?
who does that?interesting
feel free to elaborate at any time
I think I know what you mean but you probably should say a little more
Why can't some of you on this board get that most people have a difference of opinion and separate thought pattern.Caribbean Americans are just as invited to answer this too
I think it is the same question for them as well
I do think some of islands may have some advantages because they are homogeneous
not sure what's up with the big letters of anger
I don't want to taint the pool of answers by diving into my motivations for the thread but rest assured they are quite benign
Expressing that doesnt not equal anger!
I increased the size of my font, bolded it, and underlined it because the person i was conversing with conveniently glossed over my question SEVERAL times.
i just wanted to make sure he seen it.
you guys have east Asians, Indians, etc who you share a common culture/ blood bond with, i think it would behoove you guys to use those resources to your betterment.
Access to two countries with 1 billion plus population, with east Asians especially Chinese on par to be the Biggest global super power of the 22nd century.
That sounds a hell of alot better than the relationship between Blacks & White Americans.

He's a clown and a KNOWN AA hater that's what gave me pause about the motive behind this thread.
He has nothing of value to add to this conversation or any other conversation about ethnicity whether it be AAs or most importantly his OWN people Caribbeans.
His commentary is quite baffling considering he's the only joke in this thread.

Just look at any thread in this forum written about any ethnicity besides AAs, some how some way someone finds a reason to bring AAs up and start a compare and contrast.
Over the internet, especially THIS forum, I see Caribbeans/Caribbean Canadians do it.
I peeped Canadians talk more shyt about AAs than Caribbean Americans, quite weird seeing as how most of them never met an AA in their life.
Elsewhere mostly Africans, especially on LSA.
Now that I think about most time when I see some WILD shyt said about AAs, be it Caribbeans or Africans, they're 8/10 either from Canada or the the UK.

That's pretty dumb, I hope it is mostly false flag. It could be the Chris Rock gga vs gger phenomenon, shyt is deplorable.
The racism mind field is powerfulJust look at any thread in this forum written about any ethnicity besides AAs, some how some way someone finds a reason to bring AAs up and start a compare and contrast.

The discussion really should be about identity formation, but I did not want to start the thread too heavy handedWhy can't some of you on this board get that most people have a difference of opinion and separate thought pattern.

the islands have lots of diversity let them tell it

it will be part of a series of discussions hopefully
Yes i agree.
Identity has held us back as a people since the Civil Rights movement.
Are you referring to AAs, Caribbeans, or both?
Honestly for this I am addressing anyone living under the dominance of American media imagery and infomation as well as the American education system (a bios form of media)
