Yes you guys are American, native Americans even (this doesn't nagate the fact that the root of your lineage lies with the first men and women from Africa), but white people don't see us a different from one another. Culturally there are differences, but that the same as the differences between a Congolese person and a Uganda or a Nigerian (language, music style, food etc...). If you kiss you teeth, have rhythm, don't wear shoes in your house, call your elders auntie or uncles, have dark skin, and coily hair, we are related.

@@lawrencejohnson743Rap is what you do over a beat. Those two combined together become hip-hop. Rapping comes from DJ’s at parties who would talk over a random instrumentals in the background shouting people out and just talking, the word ‘rap’ originally meant to just talk. Eventually they started rhyming words together to the beat to entertain the crowd to spice it up and then from there it evolved to the rapping to drum breaks and drum loops that we know. This combined with dancing or “break dancing” at the same parties is the essence of what Hip-Hop was. It’s what Hip-Hop supposed to be, but like all things, it changed once it got big.

Exactly. The socalled Hispanic didn't come in until after we had invented everything, just like everyone else. What has been hidden from view by white surpremacist scholarship is the fact that we are on a Black planet where a particular group of Black people are literally the civilzers and culture bearers throughout history wherever we find modernity. Heredity has everything to do with a group of people and their inherent traits. This is why everyone tries to tell Black people we are all the same when Black people point out their greatness. No other people are inventing and producing at the level of a particular group of Black people. It ain't even close. Lastly, the Americas are the true old world.

Jin is a leading proponent of the model of recent African origin of modern humans. His research presented evidence that the majority of the gene pools in China originated from Africa. His team analyzed the Y chromosomes of males around China and compared this group with those of Southeast Asians and Africans.😮 This message is to Adonis and others who can't just do simple research. There is a video on youtube of researchers explaining Asian DNA connection to Africa. You all love to joke about the truth when it's real. The Khoisan also known as the Khoi Khoi , San or Bushmen are a group of non-Bantu Africans. They have Asian features - high cheekbones, slant eyes and light skin. They are found in Southern Africa - Namibia, Botswana and South Africa. Do your research before jumping down other foreigners throat about history please and thank you. For the record you are not black. Black is a color. The color of a thing not city, state, country, or place.

I was born in Africa, I moved to the US 20+ years ago. Black Americans are not Africans, of course Black Americans descended in Africa but they’re definitely not Africans.

[@thewordsmith5440]

They do. We are of African descent. And African-American is a term that has nothing to do with you because it's a distinct ethnic group with it's own makeup and you don't get to move anywhere and tell people what to call themselves. Just like Asian-American some who are part white and 5th generation someone newly from China does not get to move to America and tell people what they can call themselves. And genetic studies do use the term European-Americans. But they usually break it down to Irish-American, Italian-American etc. Because most Americans origins came from Somewhere else you use the origin then the nationality. It's not hard.

[@thewordsmith5440]

Do people from France move to Canada and tell people not to call themselves French-Canadian? No, because that is it's own culture by now that started centuries ago that no one gets to try to change. But Afro-Jamaican is also a term just like Indo-Jamaican.

Disclaimer: I’m a South African, we love & respect Black Americans and their culture, we were inspired by it ourselves, and it helped us in a lot of ways. So believe me when I say I’m not trying to start a fight with the question I’m about to ask, I’m really just trying to learn. It is a fact that each native of a continent, country, island etc has two foudational cultural pillars, language and spiritual/religious practices. Eg: the Scottish speak Gaelic, the Aboriginal people of Australia have their own language and spiritual beliefs, we Africans have our own languages and spiritual beliefs, even the vikings(white people) had their own language and spiritual practices, where they would do sacrifices and all those things. The Asians have their own languages and spiritual beliefs. My question is, If there were original black people in the US excluding native Americans(red indians) because it is known they have their own language and spiritual beliefs, what is the original language of black Americans and what are your original spiritual/religious practices/beliefs. AAVE is a dialect of English, and English comes from white people, so I can’t really accept that as an answer, and Christianity as an answer is idk, because generally white people used Christianity as a method to praise and worship God, Muslim people use Islam as a method to praise and worship God. And everyone has their own method, and in their own language So please help me try to understand what you mean when you guys say you’re the original black people of the US. I’m really want to understand. Because history tells us otherwise, and your DNA also says otherwise. So I’m really confused

black british don’t have these opinions about cultured Africans using the n word. In fact they like the exchange of culture. Both black British and African British are more way culturally similar than AA. Also similar to carribeans. They like the same things like football. ⚽️ As a Nigerian American blacks don’t have these opinions AA had in the video about me either even tho my name is completely Nigerian. So it’s pretty obvious to me most don’t believe things like being called just American. In fact I’ve seen it. Altho I completely respect someone who wants just that. Doesn’t bother me. Opinions are there for a reason. Ugandan was most intuitive more willing to compromise. But other African and American most of what they’re arguing does not being any value to any other lives. But it is interesting nonetheless to see how some feel. Altho it is kinda sad that some don’t understand what it will take for the world to respect people of African descent. I’m only saying this to make you think, if AA’s aren’t of African descent don’t come to Africa when like their music scene some of their countries become world powers. It is already happening. But then again you have a right to every continent on this earth as we are the original creation of God(no shade to other races, but I would assume that’s why they are so obsessed and insecure about black people)

No. You are confusing ethnicity and race. There is Black/African American culture which contributes to Black culture, the totality of the cultures of Black Africa & the Black African diaspora. Words have meaning. "Black" refers to race on a global basis. The majority of kidnapped Africans were shipped to Latin America and the Caribbean. The people there often refer to themselves as Black too. They're ancestors have been the Americas as long if not longer than most Black Americans. Again, Black American/African American represents an ethnic group specific to the descendants of enslaved Africans in the United States.

Adonis I think you're a bit uneducated on uk black culture. Black people have been in the uk for the past 500 years too. The history of black people and slavery with the uk lasts a long time for example. The UK had slaves and had black British citizens in the uk, Jamaica ad Nigeria before Scotland was even part of the UK! Just like Americans but they were mistreated and deported back to africa in groups. Queen Elizabeth the first for example deported a group of black people out of England to Sierra Leone. Also some of hip hops founding fathers were Jamaican and hip hop was inspired by sound system culture the same way grime was inspired by Jamaican culture 30 years later in th UK. The banjo is based on an African instrument! Black Americans call sweet potatoes yams because they're similar to the yams that grow in Africa! Black Americans dont need to be considered African and thats okay but black Americans are not the only black culture. In terms of civil rights black people in the uk had their own civil rights and relied upon the testimony of black people from what is now Nigeria to abolish slavery. The civil rights era was inspired by Americans for sure for example we had boycotts and black panther parties in the sixties too but that is an example of how black Americans inspire black people in the rest of the world. America is the number 1 country and has dominated media for a long time, why is it a surprise that black people all over the world are inspired by black us culture when we all went through the same things? And to your point of black British people only having been in the uk for 3 generations, thats true for the majority but not all. Me for example my parents both have nigerian origin, i was born in the uk, on my dads side is a straight Nigerian heritage but on my mums side she was from a group of nigerians that have been here since the 1800s and kept their Nigerian culture, the racism became too much and muly mums family moved back to Nigeria in the 80s and then my parents moved back to the uk in the 90s. I still have family that didn't go back and stayed in the uk the whole time living in Newcastle. I dont want to discredit you but you need to be educated a bit more on uk black culture because the original black British people are still here. And as for the N word situation we went through a similar thing of reclaiming the word. I was called the n word growing up, so was my mum, so were nigerians during colonisation, i can only speak for myself and my people but to be honest bro our histories are more linked than separated in particular the history of the US , JAMAICA , NIGERIA AND BRAZIL. Me for example am from igala tribe in Nigeria, we were a kingdom decimated by the slave trade because of how close we lived to the niger river but our culture still lives in forms from the Gullah people in th US. You even have red rice! Honestly bro i would recommend educating yourself a lil bit more, not hating but i think you would understand that black British experience more and most people in the uk dont really know the history. Sorry for the rant lol but i hope u see this, been watching since you were on the sidemen 😅

It's a total misconception that Africans don't refer to themselves as black. That might have been true before colonization, but since then, the european concept of races, and with it the existence of a distinct "black" race (or black RACES, plural) has been drilled into the indigenous populations. Many african colonies had public spaces segregated between whites and blacks, just like in the U.S. There's a distinction between race, nationality, ethnicity/tribe. Most sub saharan Africans (same goes for the caribbean and south america, btw) consider themselves black, racially speaking. There's even literature proving it, going back at least over a century. Only a few african ethnic groups often reject the label black. You'll find them in Somalia, Mauritania, Sudan (northern one); more rarely Ethiopia, Madagascar. To be fair, they look like what you guys would call "not unambiguously black". They typically look mixed with middle eastern (or with south asian, in the case of malagasy) and speak arabic. If a european says he's english, and norman, that doesn't mean he doesn't identify as white. Similarly, if an African says he's cameroonian, and bamileke, that doesn't mean he doesn't identify as black. So, the Ugandan dude is right when he says there are many black cultures, and there are literally books, by anthropologists, saying as much.

This guy does not speak for all Black Americans especially the ones who are very educated about their African ancestry and about Africa as a whole. He obviously need to educate himself more on this topic before challenging Africans or anybody on this subject. Africans were on this planet before all mankind therefore they are indigenous to the earth. All mankind descended from Africa, yes we know they don’t identify as African today but this is the point the young man was trying to make. The guy doing the interview needs to know no matter where he’s born his ancestry still comes from Africa. Five generations is not that far away from the Continent. African cousins can still be located Alive in Africa today. Yes he was born in America these other young men were born in Europe but they are still African there’s not much difference in third or fifth generation. Some of the questions were biased and further creates a divide between black Americans and Africans. We were taught negative things about eachother to keep us separated and uneducated about who we both really are. No black culture is better than the other both have their flaws and good characteristics. Blck Americans may have contributed to the civil rights movement but Africans contributed to the blue print for the rest of mankind. Educate yourself on African identity and major contributions to the world before you interview people on this subject. Let not continue to divide the cultures and focus on United us for the greater good.

African history is also black American history because we are the people that was kidnapped from their family . At the need of the day we’re all family. One group was kidnapped and the other group lost family as a result of the slave trade no matter who was involved in it not all Africans were and most were victims who lost us ( their family).

They either bred into the country or were thrown out when Rome collapsed. North African, Egyptian mesapotomian Greek who were in Spain and Italy the Mediterranean mostly were kicked out for slavery rape and colonising some had married Etruscan and Celt women but pushed or killed those indiginous to west Europe out or ruled with them esp the white Etruscan. Over 600 years they were throw out of Spain and Italy or left that's what happened. UK the Romans never lived with them so left when Rome fell. There were black people always trading in ports of UK but we didn't have hardly any til after ww2 slavery wasn't massively practiced in the UK but were taken for wives and help some mixed son daughter were in the middle upper class but not many, the slave trade was mostly done over seas where the rich made money. The biggest change migration was after the war many African Americans stayed too. Moors joined the Muslim caliphate and were part of translating text to France and Italy to UK the west that educated and brought the enlightenment on.

I guess the guys who spun this tale of Africans selling others didn’t bother telling you of black Americans doing worse? Do you guys know who fought against and stopped the slave trade worldwide? No? Well, they were collective efforts of a British lawyer, Granville Sharp and Africans. The first freed slaves arrived in present day Freetown, capital of Sierra Leone. West Africa. Do you really know how slaves were obtained? No? They arrived with shiploads of soldiers armed with guns, cannons and bombs. Often to small settlements where folks defended themselves with mere bows and arrows. Some Africans sold some others. Why should those few represent an entire continent? Because the white man wants to efface the horrors they created. And you eagerly swallow everything; hook, line, and sinker.
