Remember when black men would head nod each other when passing in public areas

[O³ (O cubed)]

I still give the head nod. Brehs give the head nod back.

 

[Gloxina]

I still see it occasionally amongst older heads tho

I was going to say, older Black folks still do this. I totally remember being a kid and every Black person acknowledging each other when out shopping, etc.

The energy can be weird between the sexes, too.

Most still do , I consistently get head nods or what up.at work,store,gas station etc

Some don’t say nothin or on their phones not paying attention

Depends on the age.

Depends on the age.

It be younger & older cats tbh

As a young breh in my early 20s, the only time I get head nods is from black men who look early 30s and up, or old heads. They be calling me ‘brotha’ too. Old heads will actually nod at me first mostly.

Gen Z and young millennial aged black men are on a DIFFERENT typa time. If you even so much as lock eyes in their direction for 5 secs while passing em by, straight up mean mug you or pretend they don’t see you. Or you in a venue and they be looking across at you, sizing you up.

The bold is legit scary for now and in the future

I do whenever im in a area where there ain't alot of blacks, give the i got you if these crackas act up and keep it moving

 

[moorfeus]

Wait we don't do that anymore? I didn't get the memo.

 

[Jaguar93]

It still happens

 

[315]

def…

i’ll headnod most brehs when I’m out and about and it’s usually reciprocated, but i’m more discerning when it comes to brehettes…

when I see brehettes randomly walkin down the street i feel like they usually have their guard up so i keep it pushin, but when I’m in an actual establishment I’ll smile and say wussup and they give me the same energy back…

 

[Clark Wayne]

That’s mostly with the younger generation .

I almost 30 and brehs around my age or older for the most part ain’t on that bullshyt.

Cause that shyt dont mean anything. It's just another symbolic gesture black people love rather than concrete actions.
We kill, rob, violate and actively try to fukk each other's women like no other group of men.
Other men practice real brotherhood and group economics without the head nod bullshyt

I usually go in for the hug.
