So these Nigerian girls are mad on my Timeline

[Monte Cristo]

Lmao @ walkin around African countries with sneakers on all day cats sound like nikkas who talk shyt about the next hood cause they never been out theirs. This shyt is embarrassing

Isnt the climate in West Africa almost exactly like Florida's? If it's their culture, it's their culture but let's not pretend it's unheard of to walk around in that climate in close toed shoes.

Are you @Akan/Igbo?

 

[Sick Boy]

It's not "Africans"

Only Nigerians/Somalis/Ethiopians


Everyone else is straight though.

Nah, them carribean nikkas be on that bullshyt heavy too

I wanna go off but African Americans get banned from the coli wit the quickness while other blacks can pop as much bullshyt about us as they want and run free

nah breh.

It's due to the weather and the climate. Not everybody can buy socks and after it's best for the environment. Clearly, no one would wear it much here due to the climate.

Yep, when I visited Ghana this was common to see.

Talking about this is why they hate on AAs

Coli bredrin what we think

I'm not AA so I don't care. Many of their views are legit. But it's the usual American trait where they think they're the center of the world.

Trust me breh, I know

We had coli Islanders popping shyt off a week or so ago. None of the coli islander members checked their own. They just came right at black Americans necks and then act like we started it. A lot of Carribbean nikkas I meet IRL are straight though. The ones who are funny style in that culture are a minority imo.

With Nigerians/Ethiopians/Somalis, it isnt a minority. They generally dislike us. The feeling is mutual for me. I wont go any further though because as you said, it's perfectly acceptable to pop shyt off to black Americans but if we retaliate, it's a problem. Non AA blacks come at you and the AA posters will come at you on some kumbaya shyt when it's not fukking realistic.

lol @Kitsch weren't u rocking some joints like that in your kicks thread.

as an AA i dont care. Blacks can call each other out on their ignorant bs.
but i do find the african "disdain" for AA's quite hypocritical since many of them adopt aspects AA "culture". . i.e., the shots at jordans and timbs is kinda wack cuz wale is a sneaker head.

we just gotta accept and embrace our cultural differences b/c we're alike more than we are different.

That chick also used the term "realest nikka in nigeria"

No man should have they toes out

Well, if they have such a problem then they can feel free to return back to Nigeria

But we both know they wont do that
They'll continue to stay in a country they wouldnt otherwise be in if it wasnt for us
They'll continue to bite our culture and latch onto us socially
They'll continue to be slick and pop shyt off on social media and behind our backs

leeches.

@ this small minded thinking

It just doesn't look good. Period.

Lot of interesting opinions in here.

I don't think anyone generally hates anyone for being AA/African in America or anything else.

At the same time, I know people generally mock/fear what they are unfamiliar with/don't understand/ignorant about.

The problem in my opinion is that we lack the leadership and institutions to really solve these problems.

But the answer has to be somewhere in the middle. Building a bridge between Africa, the African diaspora in Americaand African Americans.

 

[Kane]

All he did was clown some shoes and nikkas use that to take shots at AA's

This nikka Wale one of the biggest sneakerheads in hip hop and got the nerve to take shots at Jordan's

 

[Neil Tyson]

I don't see it changing unless AAs admit that America is actually shyt compared to everywhere else. The faux patriotism has got to go.
