Another fool speaking on a subject he knows nothing about.

How would he explain the continent, who claims to know exactly who they are, always having to look to outsiders like those same Asians for everything - building roads and ports and hospitals, loans, etc?

In any event, this was largely the topic Brother Tariq spoke on Sunday in what was another hard hitting, truth filled broadcast.

Tariq Nasheed: Why Do People Try To Center Themselves in FBA Business?

Go hold Tariq's nuts and choke on them

nikkas will go out they way to misinterpret what he said and turn it into something negative.

He clearly means where an ethnicity is formed is equally home as where ancestors violently were taken from (West & Central) Africa

It’s about acknowledging and understanding the past and the present as equal. One doesn’t negate the other.

Hence the African-American ethnic group.

No different than Afro-Jamaican, Afro-Brazilian, Afro-Colombian.

Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Latin on a larger scale as well.

Those names for ethnic groups all acknowledge Africa as home, linking it to the country/region where their current ethnic group was formed over hundreds of years because of slavery, as home.
As equals.
”Black” people are native to planet Earth not just Africa

Africa is not Black Americans home, America is

People that put Afro or African in front of their actual place of origin because they are brown skinned are stupid

Some people on the Coli don’t want a planet with African supremacy and are fine/happy with the current status quo (white supremacy)
Why the hell would we want that?

Look at what you do with the piece of land you already have dominion over

Nothing.

Burna Boy is getting the wake up call all y’all will eventually

We are not the same people and stay the fukk out out business before you get your feelings hurt

Who is mad? You've just proven again that you're an idiot and why your thread got deleted

:dead:
:skip: I’m an idiot for saying scamming is a part of West of African culture? All you have to do is google “West African scams” and you’ll see pages of news stories.

I disagree with his take due to one fact,with some of us #WeWereAlreadyHere:respect:


It truly doesnt matter where we are from because black people were all over the globe. Before the white man brainwashed us with their version of history. No black American should limit themselves to America or Africa. And no African should limit thensleves to Africa. Even when you know exactly who your tribe is, doesnt mean you need to fall in line and stay.

I know I am an African American,and I know I live in the home base of white supremacy. If you wake up in a burning house,but dont know how you got there. First step is too get out of the house. I have no aspirstions to be Django and shoot it out with the Euorpean,and definitely dont plan on being Stephen.

I get what he was TRYING to say. Basically how our original ancestry and history was ripped from us unlike other people that are here. So we don't have the luxury to go back and get support unlike every immigrant here. Hard to when we don't even know the exact place we originated. I dont think he meant any malice.

Not trying to be sarcastic... but dudes literally say the same thing he said in the video on here on a daily basis; even Tariq himself:dahell:. That other groups have another country (base) that they can use for help and go back to if necessary.
But what does that look like exactly and how do we set it up?

How can the average black american leverage ties to Africa to help improve their situation domestically? I'm talking boosting our per capita income, home values, health outcomes, etc.

Why is everyone always speaking on what black Americans need to do?

Why not ask what Jamaicans need to do?

Black Brazilians? There are more blacks in Brazil than anywhere on this side of the planet.

You know what would happen if they asked a FBA what Tanzanians should do? We would say I don’t fukking know ask them!

I can’t wait to get FBA on the census so we can delineate ourselves from everyone else that think they are so much better than us because they have a homeland that they can’t wait to get away from.

They just had a poll in Nigeria and 70% of the people want to leave.
