IMMIGRANT TETHERS
had a taste of nigerian food yesterdays. last night at the thanksgiving party at my relative, we had global cuisine competition where each person bringing food would pick a country and bring the cuisine, we had folk bringing, mexican, italian, nigerian , japanese, liberian, senegalese, american and chinese food. one friend of the fam cooked the nigerian food and it was surprisingly hitting. :beli: ended up winning with mexico coming second. Got a fruit basket and gift cards.. but seriously, though, i see why nigerian brehs are thick :dame: and skrong

I think it’s disrespectful to make thanksgiving about yourself. It’s literally about the traditional American foods and the alleged meal that the natives and “settlers” shared thenturned into the foods that Black Americans created.

It’s a cultural American holiday and should be about that.

The different ethnic themed foods should be for Christmas. That’s what my family does. And then new years is eating out plus/and/or the superstition foods that’s supposed to bring good luck.

If I move to a country and choose to participate in their holidays, I’m going to actually participate in their holidays and do so respectfully.

This is no different than people trying to make Black History month about everyone instead of who it’s created for which is Black Americans

I expect you to be disrespectful and ignorant on Black American history/culture and make light of things. It’s typical for your people

Thanksgiving isn't even uniquely American, as the custom of having large feasts to celebrate gratitude is pretty common among most cultures. The origin of American Thanksgiving is more myth than fact.

I’m Black American - although I have the privilege of travelling across the globe due to work. You’re just an insufferable twitter type and this reply further accentuates that - just loud and wrong and reaching for the most accessible buzz word/talking point without fact checking. Insufferable :hubie:
