Ryan Coogler talks about how he felt guilty trying to connect to Africa instead of his FBA Ancestors - “I only saw my first Cotton Field in 2021”

[Kasgoinjail]

This is Tariq Nasheed porn at this point. I know the non-fbas are sick of this shyt.

Its crazy

I mean I get that he felt guilty he had never visit a plantation before however that's like saying u feel bad for not saying hi to your mother before your grandmother.

How bout respect both n keep it

that oakland accent is thick "pause"

There's nothing wrong with what Coogler said here and it's pretty powerful. Props.

What is wrong is how that tweet and others are using him to create this goofy war. The brotha is reconnecting with his ancestors and legacy.
Some ppl just want to create arguments as to where he starts his connection.

 

[315]

We got folks around the country alive today we need to connect with. Props to him

Sooo
Make the big bucks off Africa to fund your own narrative.

Issok
Been happening for 1000's of years already

Africa sold us to CACs

 

[Kasgoinjail]

Africa sold us to CACs

That's a very juvenile and untruthful statement.

Africa
The 52 countries?

Dunce

 

[CoryMack]

Why does it have to be 'either-or'?


FBADOS are unique and distinct, but we don't have to act like we have no connection to Africa, or hate on other groups of Black people.

Brother you got to tighten up your mind.

This is precisely the way a white man would word his argument. Now there's a fukking conversation about hating africans and other bullshyt that man said nothing about. It's like you either didn't watch the video, or just decided to credit him with some shyt he never even implied.

this is a general statement about the whole subject. I didn't watch the video

 

[RamsayBolton]

yall gonna piss me off condensing his introspective and honest approaches to both african and black american history into FBA vs Africa diaspora wars

 

[Po pimp]

Dude sounds like every La hood at once lol

You mean Oakland

 

[Amerikan Melanin]

We been here on this land for 400yrs but everyone wants to skip over that and reconnect with people who don’t give a fukk about us or our plight.

I’m good. Love my African ancestors but I connect directly to my FBA ancestors on this land.

Currituck county NC
Repton alabama
Boston GA
Norfolk VA
My indigenous family also.

 

[Neuromancer]

I hope his next movie is about Bass Reeves.

 

[K.O.N.Y]

People in here missing the point. He like many other black Americans had their heads stuck in this lala land that pannies and blanket blacks crafted. Where we get our ethnic and historic authentication from Africa, when all of that can be found here on this soil ,within our own lineage

Glad so many of us are waking up outta of that coma
