When do you think continential black people get the concept of the head nod/recognizing other black people in the states?

So... I was a Pan Africanist in theory just over a decade ago, but what solidified it was so much of the stuff I'd see at this job with various people from various countries.

I remember one time this lady was talking to another lady, and Idk what they said but the way they laughed and dapped each other up :dwillhuh: shyt was spooky. I gotta dig for it but I remember seeing a video during covid from some country modifying how they greet each other. Again :dwillhuh: and just think of shyt like Djembes vs beating on a table, or hambone. The overlap is undeniable once you start to look out for it.


But yeah, why didn't they nod back to OP? :dahell: This is the problem with Pan-Africanism

No, like maybe there’s something atypical on your person.

:hubie:

I don't have that problem with other people though. Often enough I get approached by other people and apologize for not seeing them. But having someone look right through you is kinda jarring

I've seen variations across the diaspora. Wish I could find one of this lady getting off a boat and dapping another lady up and you could tell from the mannerisms she was grateful to make it safely from a long trip. We have more in common than people like OP is willing to admit. They could've nodded back :why: :camby:
