Charles Barkey- "Plantains are nasty"

[Asicz]

I used to cook Plaintains in the microwave

 

[ElMorenoFeo809]

didn't know BBQ was invented by the Natives either.

But hey every other thing belonging to them in North America has been jacked, so why not.

The word BBQ ( barbaque) comes from the awarak natives in the caribbeans. Barbacoa.

nikkas gotta stop tying blackness to fukking food. I'm still scratching my head at a butter biscuit being a c00n delicacy. Some of you nikkas need help. Touch grass as the kids say.

No, it's more so mentalities that are developed in some places where people grew up, not exactly how people are born. When too many adopt a certain thought pattern(although some are able to overcome) it becomes
affiliated with where they came out of.

I disagree with this on principle, and the facts say different about how you are trying to paint Alabama.
After Baton Rouge, the Montgomery, AL bus boycott was one of the genesis moments of the modern day Civil Rights Movement. And the bravery shown by the people in that state under the most harsh conditions,threats, and violence in the Deep South in the decades before and after that are on the record. They were on the front lines and didn't blink.

Tariq Nasheed coined the insult but not because there is something wrong with biscuits.

Just a almost random food joke for people that tap dance for trinkets or peanuts etc

Native Americans. Not cacs..or nikkaz.

Only reason I know is from going up to the Dakotas a few years ago and learned a lot more about Native history.

It's a starchy banana creh

I. Not a creh that word needs to be banned we not trying to give cacs any words, names, or phrases of endearment

 

[DerrtySouthpaw]

Fried plantains and ice cream

you’re welcome

 

[Cuban Pete]

Only more universally widespread and beloved black vegetable/fruit than plaintains is okra. I think the whole diaspora eats okra in some forms or fashion but these plaintain wars just drive me crazy it's damn near a red line for me. fukking plaintain chips >>> potato chips!!!

 

[K.O.N.Y]

Why is it a problem for AADOS wanting our own identity motherfukkers can never answer this question, every other member of the diaspora can proudly wave their flag, and celebrate their culture but when we do it it’s a problem.

When it comes to “blackness” WE ARE THE CULTURE

that’s why you can’t have these American negros circling wagons with there cultural influences


Most of the anti fba sentiments are purely for selfish reasons

I’m indifferent on plantains. I’ll eat em and enjoy them but won’t go out of my way to get them.

AM: Maybe they didn’t originate it, but one thing that’s just incontrovertible is that African Americans were barbecue’s go-to cooks by the 19th century. Nobody can argue that. Description after description, it’s African Americans who are the principal cooks. In fact, in newspaper article after article that describes what an authentic barbecue is, they say, “You’ve gotta have a Black man do this.” We’re actually part of the recipe. But as I write in the book, I know plenty of white people who make excellent barbecue. There’s room to celebrate all of these people.

One thing I do like about Plaintains they ate like 25cent to 35 cents a banana

It originated from us too.

Every part of our cooking techniques, traditions, etc. come from Africa. shyt didn’t just pop up out of thin air or because some European or Native American had to teach us.
