Coogler set his film in the South but I'm not sure he's just limiting his thoughts on the interactions between the two groups to the South...(most of the historic dealings between Irish and Blacks is actually outside of the South)

Again, he's not lying, he's just focusing on a cetain aspect of the relationship
That's actual pretty disrespectful to the black community. The truth is that the Irish as a whole were just as racist towards black people as every other group. The phrase "we have no allies" is 100% fact.

He’d have to expand on that a little bit more for me.

But I do know that my both sides of my family trace back to Irish masters.

I think most of ours do.

Yep, i think my dna test said i was 10% irish. Definately some rape happened, because our family bloodline is trace all the way back to slavery. Don't have any white relatives post 1865
Y’all might want to do a little more research but the indigenous Irish were black. Common Irish Surnames like “Blackman” and “moor” now “more” were literal representations of the families complexion.

I’m just saying for DNA test that say black people have “European” DNA, it doesn’t automatically mean a white lineage.

Stand up for your man gurl.
It's really not even about Tone with me, it's the concept of talking down on the credentials of an emmy nominated black lawyer with a UCLA degree that's wild. Like a lot of people talking shyt about him in this thread, but notice how it's the credential slander that I have an issue with.


What's your resume look like that you can talk about those credentials like that?

You keep dancing around this but everyone knows why. :yeshrug:

I think he is confusing melanin with african. he probably thinks India is a black country.
Its true Europeans had darker skin back during times of antiquity. But they were never black people,
Eskimos aren't misplaced africans either.
This what white people used to look like is all.

Majority of Aframs don't rock with contemporary "Irish-Americans" because of their racist actions in America




but how Aframs view " European Irish"








might play a heavy part in how they view OTHER aspects of the relationship in America

The tethers are slowly realizing they can no longer attach their pathetic existence to us like Obama told them they could.
