Is it just a vocal minority of Black Americans who distrust Africans?

[Scustin Bieburr]

With all the talk of ADOS and the conflicting ideas on how reparations should be doled out, I've seen some comments from people who actually believe Africans are stealing jobs and look down on Black Americans. In your experience has this been the case? Do you personally have a mistrust of or bad experiences with Africans?

I wanna see the numbers on this at least from the coli perspective

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

Alot of those people come online to vent and start shyt from the safety of their parents basement. Some of them you can tell are blackfishing. Dont even sweat it. Very rarely are the conversations productive.

Never had any issues with ANY Africans/Haitians/Brazilians/etc. over here. They know that because we have the same skin shade, we face the same obstacles, and don't step in each other's way to prevent one another from achieving something.​

we love each other and been getting along fine caribbean/african/hatian whatever
stop the division

Idk about jobs but I heard nikkas say this shyt about colleges. I remember one of these hbcus the Black american nikkas at the school were upset at the amount of African nikkas entering or something I barley remember. I know personally I ain't worried about school money because of shyt like GI Bill along with other shyt. Narrative changes from nikkas saying it happens only online to it happens in their personal lives today and in the past growing up in school being name called by AAs kids.

Do you personally have a mistrust of or bad experiences with Africans?

Nah i remember in highschool it was an African nikka named "Ah Luh Day" I don't know how to spell the nikka name but it was pronounced like that. Dude moms was a professor at UCF I think and his pops was either a medical Dr. or some type of engineer I can't remember. But for the most part the average nikka here see themselves as a crayon box color and not nationality or tribal centered in comparison. When that wankada shyt came out didn't dashki sells go up like god damn 500% in the states or something.

 

[Black Steph Curry]

Majority of American nikkas ain't even in contact with caribbeans let alone Africans on a regular basis.

 

[Dolla$]

That type of conversation only exists on the coli.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Stealing jobs = No
Looking down on AA= Yes, I know they do.

 

[the bossman]

It's a vocal minority. Like the blavity Twitter feminists on that "black men are the white people of black people" steez.

Walk around any major black enclave (NYC, DC, ATL, HOU, etc.) and you'll see the diaspora all fukk with each other for the most part.

Hell look how they play that same tired ass Davido afrobeats track on the hip hop radio station everyday now

 

[Take It In Blood]

Black americans distrust black americans

 

[AuntAnniesPretzels]

Most Black Americans don’t think about Africans, Unless you’re in Minneapolis, DC or NYC, we hardly come into contact with them

One final note, just because someone is nice or cordial to your face doesn’t mean anything, not just regarding other ethnic groups but other people in general. Millions of Americans go to work and are nice/cordial with people they secretly dislike for 8 hours a day Monday through Friday. We got people on here who dislike cacs but will be courteous with them and make small talk about the weather or sports in the office. Just because someone isn’t noticeably hostile to you doesn’t really mean anything. Most ppl in general are very non confrontational and are just trying to get on with their day so they can make it home to their loved ones

 

[MasterOfAllHeSurveyz]

I've never had any problems with the rest of the diaspora. Some folks must give off international BN vibes.

Very true, that's why I limit my observation to those who I have interacted with on a regular basis outside of work.

Most often smoking blunts to the face. Haitians and Nigerians, especially, will have you crackin' the fukk up.

[Tiffrock]

Not sure about the stealing jobs thing. I've talked to some Africans about the looking down on AA thing. It's about education . They don't understand why some AA squander education in the States because most Africans have to pay for education or go through hoops just to attend school.

 

[MoveForward]

The average black American is just naive as to how these other groups feel about us. I have frequent contact with Africans and islanders and based on my experiences with them... They are mostly fukked up when it comes to African Americans and I'm just being honest. I have had them say some mind blowingly racist sh1t.
