The whole thing is complicated. It is funny how you can be Chinese, Indonesian, Pakistani, or Indian but still get grouped under Asian.

However, when it comes to African identity - we don't have that luxury, hence more and more people are denying their blackness.

Particularly east africans

Most of the E. Africans I know are pro black. I mean they're at BLM protests, participating in black events, etc. Even their parents. Of course they look after their own first, but most people do this.

I won't lie I have met some on some , but they were usually older and I mean 40s-60s older. I've grown up around a lot of E. Africans, and I know two who told me to pretend I was Ethiopian when I went to their homes but that's pretty much it.

East Africans are enemies of Black Americans

They will look out for their own first (understandable), Arabs second and nobody else third

Not saying there aren't a few decent ones but every race/culture/group has at least a handful of good people

I don't agree...

Many of these people don't have experience with AA's and all they know is what hey see on tv. If that's all I saw I wouldn't want to be associated with us either.

My friend was telling me about this Eritrean girl who just moved to the states from Saudi Arabia. She said she was scared of black people and her family said stay away from them.

She asked the girl if she had AIDS and lived in poverty. She said no. That's the image of Africa we're given here. Don't let the image you're shown by cacs become law. They do the same thing to both. She said she was right and she's been open minded.

You guys have to understand the images we have of ourselves and the positive things we know isn't how it is in other countries. I don't demonize Africans for their view of us if they don't know any better.

Nah. There's a negative image of the Middle East in the media too yet East Africans worship those sand cacs

It's just ingrained in their cultures to hate people with Bantu features

You can give them a pass if you want
I won't though

Well many of them are Muslim and are descendants of arabs. Of course they don't believe all the media hype about them because they can look around and see it's not all true.

You will find even find arabs on that blm wave so that doesn't convince me in all honesty. Some ea are pro black no doubt but there is a fair portion that see themseleves as something else due to their features.
