Burna Boy with A take on African Americans

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

Why would people be mad at what he said

He didn’t mean any harm, but he did say some dumb shyt. I got love for the whole diaspora, so I fully support going to Africa. Hell, I’m posting this poolside in Kampala right now.

It does get frustrating hearing people who are clearly ignorant on the dynamics in America speaking on us like this. The difference between the Chinese American and Italian American experience as compared to Black Americans isn’t some connection to their homeland. The Black American experience is shaped wholly and thoroughly by insatiable white supremacy since we were brought here.

Again, I don’t believe Burna Boy meant any disrespect, so I have no qualms with him. But he should just shut the fukk up bout the plight of African Americans since he clearly doesn’t want to get the real. We don’t speak on the state of Nigeria, he shouldn’t speak on us. He should show us live tell us we’re welcome and keep it at that

He sounds dumb as fukk and non empathetic.

The average AA would love to know where they came from.

We know where we come from. We've been here longer than burna boy's country has been a country.

 

[Peachstate]

Anyway, another day, another non-AA speaking on us from a place of ignorance and faux concern. The obsession with our identity has grown tiresome.

People here made a whole thread calling South Africans cowards because a Black kid was assaulted at a pool

 

[Henri Christophe]

Some people on the Coli don’t want a planet with African supremacy

correct

 

[Cereal_Bowl_Assassin]

Are people really bothered by this? What he said was pretty true imo

@*DalMem* what's ignorant about what he/I said...let's have a civil discussion about this...I want to understand your viewpoint

 

[The Fade]

We know where we come from. Those states don’t exist anymore. We don’t come from Berlin conference created “nations”

I believe in coming together but y’all gotta stop the “you don’t know where you come from” bull. And y’all should’ve wrote shyt down en masse instead of just leaving it to the elite so we could remember it after we were stripped of it

 

[LeVraiPapi]

Actually it’s just the opposite. You don’t see us commenting on your shortcomings, of which you have many, unless it’s in defense of some ignorant shyt one of you has said first. We know what our shortcomings are. We don’t need another Black person who isn’t from here and has just as many unresolved issues of their own to speak on them for us. That’s the issue here.

And I’m sure you can build a society on your own, but the fact remains you haven’t. At least I’m fair minded enough to understand why that is.

If you don’t comment on Africa shortcomings it’s because you’re a ficking bootlicking c00n who’s looking for white acceptance. There’s no American descendance of black people. All Blackpeople are African decent. All of them.

Imagine a Chinese trynna claim his blood is American not from China ? Yeah that’s insane ain’t it ?

So what states are those ? What states of America created you Black people ? It’s funny how much y’all try to whitewash yourselves but then cry white supremacy

 

[IVS]

Its hilarious because I know people who are NIgerian who told me their parents live here in USAmerica and never want to go back to Nigeria. So if they dont feel like they missing something why should we.

 

[Henri Christophe]

Black Men are emotional creatures

Not a good trait to have in a globalized world when you're competing against other Men who aren't governed by their emotions like bytches.

Feminine.

Alot of brothers simply aren't ready.....yall too old for this

Eat dikk, you been had a weird animus against Black Americans before the reparations talk. Don’t tell me I’m white washed when I recognized I’m from Africa. That’s the problem with y’all it’s never enough. Y’all don’t even like us claiming Africa like that. Y’all the ones that call US Black Americans [because it means “cultureless”] so we rocked with that name.

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

I don't believe in Africa one bit. We are American and nothing else. Everything about the us are different.

And what people fail to realize is we can build ourselves here, we don't have to move to Africa. Our toxic culture just holds us back.

1. I’m never against reparations. Never.

2. I’m never against Black Americans. I clapped back when a bunch of trolls were saying derogatory shyt about my country after an earthquake. Imagine me making fun of people in New Orleans after Katrina ? How bad would it be ?

I don’t care what you do but stop lying to yourself that you originated from America. Your roots are African if you Black. No matter where you are in the world. America is a Native American country. Your ancestors are African unless you can prove otherwise

How you’re American ? What group of black people originated from anywhere else but Africa ? Lmao.

Y’all c00ns really hate your ancestry that bad ?
