Black Americans aren't used to seeing black people fully embrace their Nationality and race exclusively so  there's usually a problem when a foreign black person hypes up their Nationality and it's usually seen as trying to distance themselves from blackness when it's not mutally exclusive.

Like when Lupita was blowing up and she said she was Mexican and Kenyan there was alot of people who side eyed her because of that.
this is why I be so conflicted when black get upset about White supremacy. Outside of the mess aren't they ultimately doing the same thing? Celebrating their heritage/race?

I'm just over all this shit tbh.
Do you mean when black people put down other blacks for celebrating their heritage or when black in general celebrate their heritage?
I actually didn't mean to quote that post I was too lazy to edit but both kinda. If being black is a culture, why can't being white?
Blacks don't have a history of killing others for the sake of Black Pride and Culture though Marg
When people celebrate Black Pride it's usually celebrating cultural diveristy, the overcomings of obstacles, the different ethnic groups, religions etc.
White culture historically is laced with extreme racism and slavery, that's why when you think of "White Culture" the negative connoattaions pop up before the good ones do.
This is true. Now I understand the issue.


It's unconditional, these days you know....

What does this

QuoteWhite supremacy or white supremacism is a racist ideology based upon the belief that white people are superior in many ways to people of other races and that therefore white people should be dominant over other races. White supremacy has roots in scientific racism and it often relies on pseudoscientific arguments. Like most similar movements such as neo-Nazism, white supremacists typically oppose people of color as well as people who are members of most religions.

Have to do with being black and from a Latino country or island?  :dead: :plzstop:

sdak;f

I just ignored the mess. I'm convinced he's trolling.

IS said culture revolved around hating other races  :plzstop:
:uhh:

Uhm that's irrelevant. What does that have to do with being understanding of a culture celebrating their own.

Were they celebrating their own when they couldn't stop raping black women?

Their whole mess is based on the fear and the knowledge that black men are superior to them.

Hear 'em swarmin', right? (Zz) 🐝 🐝  is known to bite (Zz, zz)

White pride is not necessary because they know the actual cultures they stem from. Hence St. Patrick's Day, Oktoberfest, Polka music.

AA had to develop a new culture.

Black pride is not equivalent to white pride.

Black Pride is more like Polish Pride or Finnish Pride.

Any indigenous Nigerian that says/claims they are not black is not to be taken seriously. Might as well give Rachel a pass.

Well you can find outrageous examples for literally everything. I doubt it's a real "thing".

Bottom line is I ain't making ANYTHING up. How you want deez eggs
To be fair I have heard both  :plzstop:
Africans that don't want to to be associated with Western culture won't claim the word black because of the negative connotations it holds in the West, they rather prefer to be caLledrod by their nationality or the ethnic tribe.
And there are those who don't see the difference.

So if Swizs Bearz slaps a turban on and says he's Middle Eastern, that's that for you too, Herb?  If we are taking the racial/"biological"/"genetic" aspect out of it, I see what u mean. If we are speaking strictly culture. But then Jamaicans need their own category mess too.

Yeah I've learned that in alot of countries Black = African American. So alot of time when someone who is obviously black says they aren't black they don't necessarily mean Fuck Africa. They were just taught a different lie than us. They we're taught were all one Nationality first, race comes whenever. We weren't allowed that option so it confuses alot of people when they see foreign non African blacks proudly accepting their Nationality.

I've seen alot of people even get mad at European Blacks for calling themselves British, French etc., especially if they know which African country they hail from.
