47. "for you all claiming to be African...WHERE in Africa?"
In response to In response to 0


  

          

Point to it on a map.

not some shit white people told you from your DNA allegedly.

but where YOUR PEOPLE are at.

where YOU. can go. and when you get there...your family and friends are waiting to take you in.

and serve you food like your people eat.

i wanna see it.

I wanna hear YOU speak that language...like your people speak it.

Where is your culture? show it to me.


You have adopted some random aspects of a whole RACK of other peoples cultures...and called them your own. and thats ok.

because YOU are Black! and thats what we HAD to do.

but dont sit here and claim some shit youre not. because a real African LEADS with his or her tribe.

Proud Igbo people. PROUD Yoruban people. Zulu people. Xhosa people. Omoro people. whatever

yes...they are African. yes we are the descendents...of Africa.

but we are something else.

as the real Africans here in America would be only so happy to tell you

What i and others have been saying all this time is...we have OUR own thing. and its valid.

we have OUR own way of speaking. and dressing. and talking. and singing. and cooking. and living. and ALLLLL the other shit that goes into forming a culture.

We got it. here.

because we are Black.

we are JUST now. JUST now...finally starting to grapple with who we really are.


on sabbatical.

does it really matter?

wonder what bin's doing?
