If you struggle in telling Africans apart, here's a good information:

[Eternally Jaded]

Dope thread man. I'd love for someone to try and pin my features down.

Don't understand the pushback from certain posters either.

Don't vibe with it, just bounce.

 

[Skooby]

She's not consistent. She's assigning nationalities to some and ethnic groups to others.

Why are people saying Nas looks Somalian?

Every list in here is Nas and 4 nikkas that look nothing like him.

I was paying attention when his name was bought up because he’s the celebrity I resemble closest.

 

[Tommy Knocks]

People saying she's accurate when some of these celebrities have taken the test, such as Oprah. And she's way the fukk off.

Africans have a look by tribe not european lines. Angolans do not look different than Congolese because are essentially the same people on our south and their north border. Once you go more inland that's a different tribe , who do indeed look different and harder faces.

Cameroon have various tribes and many cross (relate) with Nigerians

 

[Tommy Knocks]

Also. people saying Somali? I didn't know they were enslaved and brought through the transatlantic slave trade. When did that happen? Link?

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

I thought slaves were only taken from west africa

does this suggest colonization of the Americas by Africans long before 1492

no it suggests you struggling with history

The Twitter thread is about helping black people understand how to differentiate between tribes by showing celebrities that we all know, who resemble those tribes the closest.

She’s not saying they are really from those tribes/Nations, and it’s supposed to be taken light-heartedly.

bruh she's talking about their looks and the populations/ethnicities they RESEMBLE the most IN AFRICA. Not their actual DNA tracing lol.

As someone who lives in Asia you spend a considerable amount of time around Asians from certain places and you start being able to identity traits and characteristics and place people... same thing. Most humans don't even exercise this part of their brain anymore because of modern distractions but we are very adept at using facial features as markers because humans have had to do so for survival to tell friends from enemies.

 

[EndGame]

Mike Tyson's brainwashed c00n ass is indeed Congolese.

 

[World'sFinest]

Lol, this is stupid. Bet you the person who started the Twitter thread hasn't even been to Africa. This is thumbsucking 101 and what's more pathetic, you're all falling for it.

 

[Ghost Utmost]

I'm such an ugly American

This is like a new world to me to think that you can look at a Black person and tell what part of Africa they are from..

You know intellectually that this exists, but very surprising to see laid out like this. Just from her eyeballing them. Supposedly.

Makes me want to sit down and study

I mean, wasn't this obvious without stating?

 

[Ugo Ogugwa]

Jordan definitely looks Mande. Kobe Bryant and Tupac did too. It is the shapes of their heads.

JayZ kind of looks Igbo.

fukk outta this thread p*ssy

You must be new here..

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

respectfully, nah

Maybe not where you from. But Ethiopia got every African look. Habashas are a minority there actually.
