The Odum of Ala Igbo
Hail Biafra!
Hausa
Don't many AA's have Hausa ancestry?
Good question. I remember seeing a tract within a book that noted that Hausas were in Louisiana
Africans break dancing in the 50's

Explains all the hate #BiafraSet gets on the coli
It's innate
Most of the Africans who were sent to Virginia/Maryland were Igbos
Given that these enslaved persons were sent down south a lot, I'd say most African-Americans have at least one Igbo ancestor
They're all #BiafraSet

I don’t take any African Americans serious if they don’t recognize the foundation for everything we get is from the Motherland.
All the DRUMS from black music (which has become modern POP music) is from Africa, European barely used drums/percussion centuries ago.
The Griots beget the street poets, which begat rappers.
This goes for ALL new world blacks...Afram, Caribbean’s, Central and South American.
If they don’t recognize Africa in they culturall roots then they get the MUTE from me

It’s like 100 videos in here and none of them are breakdancing.
It’s even funnier that y’all used this to clown NYC. But whatever
This idea of communal soul-train-line-like dancing has been with us since we got on those slave ships.
Every.single.thing about us is African. Hip Hop, Jazz, Salsa, Capoeria, Bachata, Reggae, they all tap into African musical and oratory tradition. We are Africans, not like Africans or the sons of Africans, we are full blooded Africans that do what Africans do. so whatever the point of this thread was is moot

Just shared these videos with a B-Boy I know. Daps all around.
They were killing itits cool that appreciation for song and dance in this manner is almost innate
I always tell people that our culture is embedded in our DNA. Things we do now were done long ago. We were born fly!
Africans started this shyt so ofc......
