Do Africans HATE Black Americans?: From My Perspective

[@jazzyflow369]

It's the stereotype! We stereotype each other on both behalf and this is coming from the media; unfortunately! It needs to stop ✋United we are strong but divided we are weak as people!

[@travelingsista]

+Jazzy Flow yep! Coming from the media as well as years and ears of teaching us to hate each other in so many ways.

[@aborigineone2377]

When a black American person living in America says Africans hate black people they are saying it wrong, the correct way to say it should be, an African person that they have came in contact with here in America express hate toward me or every African person I came in contact within America has expressed hate or dislike toward me, all people should not be judge base on a few bad apples, we have good and bad on both sides of the fence, African or Americans so the fingerpointing needs to stop however addressing the matter is important to try and stop the widespread of stupidness on both parts.

[@tinasarafinas4962]

Girl I understand the dress code problem! Even in dar es salaam I've had a man tell me off about a maxi dress I wore which was to tight apparently and showed my curves. But the white tourists are allowed whatever because they are not seen as part of the culture. So even if it is annoying to get stares I try to take it as the people are including me in the culture 😊

[@joventmushwaimi3681]

That's what it is,the whites can wear whatever they want because we know their culture ,but in Africa women its not our culture for women to wear shorts though for now it's start to change somehow its not like ten to fifteen years ago ,I remember those days that mob after surround u they will end up left u naked just to punish u but according to the law its illegal and some people go to jail for that and for now u can not see such behavior. But there are places like in rular areas it's quite strange but not in urban areas all in all so many things changes according to glob alization .In case of hate Black Americans I think ma sister u are right we use to love Black's all over the world and we are gud fans of black athletics and artists we value them than the whites .Thanks hope one day when I come to Arusha I will check on u I like people like u and thank u for telling the truth and especially when u speak about negative side of ours I see some thing different than most of us here u tell the truth no matter what I like that and that is the truth we have some weakness in some areas ,.

[@gratitude5740]

Everyone should wear whatever he’ll they want . Shouldn’t be anybody’s business . I’ve been to Dar, Arusha Tanga and more . I got Scott free because I’m Caucasian. I got that fabric as a welcome at a Primary school in the ceremony they held for me . I wasn’t told it was because I wore a dress 👗 just above the knee. If that was for modesty, that’s fine ! But those big mamas should not shake their butts provocatively right in front of my face in the presence of 900 children 👶🏽. That I could not get my head around, but over all I love to community and the children.

[@gratitude5740]

Traveling Sista people should know that staring is rude. I USA or Canada or Europe people from all parts of the world are included wearing what the hell they want . As a Canadian, we bent to the new comers ! We allow burkas and turbans in the government offices , Sikh police officers wear turbans which is not Canadian culture . I cant wear a hat in my passport photo but a woman from Middle East or any Muslim country can’t wear her full on outfit. Who knows who is under that covers! So being Canadian, if I care to wear a fitted long or knee length skirt , it is my God given, human right .

[@neomontja71]

Not all African Countries are the same. I am from South Africa and people down here wear as they wish. We can wear shorts anytime we like however I think this freedom is being abused because some people walk around half naked.

[@TheTruth-lt9cm]

Love you my Sister. YOU ARE 100% CORRECT IN TELLING THE TRUTH. !!! Thank you for sharing your experience as to help enlighten us, and re-educating the mis-educated. There are two (2) very interesting words that I learnt from reading the book entitled..."Message to The Black Man... in America". I believe it should have been entitled "Message to The Black People around the World" The 2 words are: 1."Fratricidal" means.....relating to or denoting conflict within a single family or organization. 2. "Internecine" means....destructive to both sides in a conflict. OR......relating to conflict within a group or organization. This topic denotes the preaching and advocacy by the devil and evil doers who have nothing better to do than to create savage internecine warfare amongst Children of The Most High, God!" It happened in Rwanda ...Genocide, Nigeria...Biafran War, Black skin versus light skin in Black America,.... and the list goes on. Ignorant and arrogant people should get it right,.... Africans DO NOT HATE Black- African Americans ! Do you hate yourself? If you do, then seek some immediate help and attention from The Creator, unless you do not belong.... in creation.

[@travelingsista]

+The Truth yes yes and yes! I'm so glad this message resonated with you. I feel this on a deep level. We as a black people need to take initiative in re-educating ourselves. And I screenshot your comment lol I'm keeping those definitions and most definitely looking up that book. I've heard of it but have yet to read it. Thank you for the light ✨

[@TheTruth-lt9cm]

Wishing you and yours, all the very best in Africa, and in Life, my dear Sister., I respect and appreciate your endeavors. You will love the book by The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. I am not a signed or enlisted member of The Nation, but I Love, Respect and Admire the message. Nuff Respect to The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan for he has helped me gain so much Love and Respect for The Black people throughout the world. Another book, and which is available free on KZbin audio is..."The Mis-Education of The Negro" by Carter G. Woodson. You will love it, and I guarantee you will get even much "deeper" in Wisdom than you already are. I can feel it in you, that you belong to "The Flock" belonging to The Master and Created by The Almighty One. Keep enjoying and living life to the fullest. You deserve it! One Love, Always.

[@readyforanything3554]

See it's people like you that try to be the voice for all black Americans in America but yet you can't be because you're uneducated and your ignorance allows them to keep pushing their stereotypical narratives about us. How do we not know who we are yet the whole world does?? b Because they emulate everything we create and have been creating for the last four hundred and something odd years in America. Also how do we not know who we are when we were black in America before Nigeria was Nigeria in 1912. Before you make all-encompassing statements about people people that you claim to be a part of realize if they are uneducated you are giving those who seek to demean and degrade us a narrative to run with . 400 years of existing and creating things that are emulated worldwide is culture. If someone can do something and identify that something as coming from one particular group then that's culture.

First of all I don't believe Africans hate black/african Americans, but it depends on the African country you will find yourself in. (1). Religious beliefs is a factor. 2. Cultural, tradition and ethnicity is another. In Ghana for example you won't have had that experience coz most of the locals wear shorts, mini skirt, tight jeans on the streets. A chief in Ghana has offered 5.000 acres of free land for black people in diaspora, including black Americans. We as Africans love our brothers and sisters all over the world but choose where you can fit in.

[@wilburmcbride8096]

I have went to school with many people from Africa somehow look negatively on Black Americans. I don't know why? I don't know if the media spread lies to discourage us from uniting? They appear to think of us as lazy, selfish, greedy and do not forget dangerous. We are oppressed people that have overcome a lot. I understand that a lot of Africans come to America and excelled by we don't have the same experience. It's too bad that this self-hate has caused us to be divided as a people.

The way you were treated in the Tanzania market...is a prime example of native African indoctrination. Whether it be Islamic or Christianity. Africa was colonized via the white man with Christianity and the Arabs with the Islamic faith, and both faiths are extremely Patriarchal. Now, unfortunately, we have Black Americans doing the same with Christianity..mainly the Jehovah's Witnesses. Native Africans, as well as Black Americans, must purge themselves from these suffocating indoctrinations.

Let me be honest I’m african and I met great african Americans that I tought them so many things about Africa they were schoked but I see why african Americans think like that because ghanian and Nigerians some of them are really rude and they put picture as everyone is hating we don’t hate them is just some differences and also black Americans don’t like to learn about us and it’s sad. I was made fun of by them for no reason

[@feliciamoore72]

I have been around Nigerians, Kenyans, Jamaicans and Haitians all my life. In the religion I grew up in they are the majority. I must say YES THEY ARE HATEFUL TOWARDS AFRICAN AMERICANS. I'm dating a Jamaican now and boy O boy. His mother can't stand me. A chick with 4 kids by 4 different men tried to get with him and she didn't shun her. But he shunned me and even let, "She's American come out of her mouth. So.... Traveling Sistah too many "foreigners" in America are hateful/bias against African Americans.

[@busabusa5407]

Nope sis you're completely wrong. The reason why you can say that most of the people who have shared negative experiences it's because they have not been to Africa. Well, you are wrong completely. First off I have been to Africa. I have visited Senegal travel through the interior to mbaki / tuba near Mauritania. And Senegal particular Dakar on goree Island the people were very friendly. there I saw a mixture of Arab and French on the island. That was cool but in Dakar people were not so friendly. Having said that one doesn't have to go to Africa to have the African negative experience here in America. Their businesses bad attitude. They're setting up shop on corners bad attitude, in the mosque where I used to pray bad attitude. now dealing with white folk they love it as a matter of fact they love chasing white women. Not all of them most and they prefer them over our sisters. in the mosque where I used to reside. We had housed some African brothers from Burkina Faso and Benin. they did not like washing and they wanted to eat up all the food. Totally disrespectful. like the mosque owed them something.. in addition to that there was some brothers who went to Africa Uganda set up business there and got disrespected. also some African Americans set up shop in South Africa and it businesses got torched. one not like to think it was jealousy but many speculate that that's what it was. so you can say what you want records speak for itself. oh by the way you are negro woman not African. forgive the typos.

[@solangejacques6065]

Wooow thank you so much coz i though that too to black Americans

[@akumawani]

yep. as near as i've been able to tell...

[@AlMahdi2k]

Having been in Gambia for 7 months and in Uganda for 5 I will say Africans in Africa don't dislike Black Americans but most Africans are extremely unaware and have this idea that Black Americans are defacto whites or "halfcastes" Most I've encountered simply regard us as white people and not as brothers. I used to exhaust myself explaining. If you're from America and are brown skin with an American accent forget it they will try to associate you with whites. Here in Uganda people would call me Congolese then when I said I was American I magically become a "mixed caste" and my skin was "somehow too light" for me to be Black. I thought common sense would prevail as there are plenty of brown skin Africans but Black Americans get the reverse one drop rule so I'm "Mzungu" to them. There would literally be Africans lighter than me saying they were darker than me because I was American; so even objective analysis is lost when you speak with an American accent. Reality is placed to the side. Just got too tired of it and stepped away from identifying with Africa. Same thing in the Gambia. "Toubab"

[@travelingsista]

Yes it definitely happens everywhere. Our history is a lot to explain. We just have to remember that they don’t know our history in detail like we don’t know theirs in detail. Most of us only know the big picture. But I always say that colonialism shows up on the continent as a different tentacle of the same octopus. We were both affected in different way, but affected nonetheless. We just have to continue to educate each other.

[@travelingsista]

Yeah I hear you. It’s insanely frustrating. I feel like them seeing us as anything besides an mzungus / foreigner isn’t going to change anytime soon. Not until they fully understand that we are NOT mzungus & we are not to be treated as such. It’s honestly just ignorance. Not in a condescending way, but pure ignorance and lack of knowledge. This is where the exchange & the work on our part as Diasporans comes in.

[@angrybritches1854]

"I greet you today as a native Hawaiian. One of the world's endangered indigenous people, who is committed to the survival of my race. I am a member of 'The Movement for Hawaiian Independence' and I am here to discuss, the liberation of my people. How do we show our people, that they cannot be both American and Hawaiian? Because that is an impossibility. Make no mistake about it, you cannot be American, and be Hawaiian. To be American, is to be money-oriented, to be Christian, to be selfish, and above all, to be disconnected from and disrespectful towards the 'Aina Hawaii. We all know that what is unique about our culture, is its dependence on and love of the land. Only Hawaiian culture comes from Hawaii. Every other culture comes from someplace else. Only Hawaiians are born of the town. Child of the earth and sky. We did not come from Adam and Eve. Or China, or Japan or Korea, or the Philippines, and we will not be saved by the Christ child from Bethlehem. We came from this earth. We grew right out of this earth, and our survival depends, especially today, on understanding and connecting to this land of our ancestors. Our first and last loyalty has to be to Hawaii nei, not to Washington, DC, not to Tokyo, not to Manilla. Certainly, not to Peking or Moscow. How do we lift the vail, from the eyes of our people? And show them, that they will always, always, fill up the prisons and the unemployment lines. Always, occupy the lowest educational and economic levels. Always, get squeezed out of their lands and put into rat trap apartments, unless they resist, unless they fight back, unless they organize. In other words, unless they become political. Therefore, I repeat, our philosophy as nationalist Hawaiians should be, Aloha 'Aina. An alternative to tourism and militarism. Aloha 'Aina means, in economic terms; agriculture and aquaculture. Not hotels, not military bases! It means, preservation of rural areas and rural lifestyles. Of fish funds, of streams, of forests. of Kula lands. It means, a profound cultural belonging to the land, as our Ohana, our elder brother, our elder sister, our Makua. 'Those who went before'. You cannot just dance hula, and go to Hawaiian language class at night and think you're gonna get a land base! You can't do that! Cultural people have to become political! It's not just that political people like myself, have to become cultural. Our culture can't just be ornamental and recreational. That's what Waikiki is. Our culture has to be the core of our resistance. The core of our anger, the core of our mana. That's what culture is for. It's not what you do, instead of watching television. And people don't understand that. Our people don't understand that. That's why we have to educate them. If we seize this opportunity. This conference will be remembered as the beginning of a new struggle, rather than the dying gasp of an old one. Thank you, very much." - Haunani-Kay Trask, conference on Hawaiian sovereignty 1985

Elajah Ceesay i'm currently living in Tanzania and i'm African. If i'm shopping for stuff I have to talk to them in Swahili, if they realize i'm not Tanzanian they charge me twice or three times the original price. So i agree, its not just towards black Americans. If you're a foreigner, they'll overcharge you. period.

[@travelingsista]

+Carta 360 yes I agree. And I feel like it's not just a Tanzanian thing either. Even where I grew up in Virginia there are tourist areas that charge almost double for basic things.

[@SimbaM2kufu]

I'm Tanzanian live in Phoenix AZ, my brother who will be landing in Dar tomorrow is married to an African American and we all get along perfectly fine. In fact, she's a much better wife than some of these African wives I've seen here who became more Americanized than American themselves. I've encountered mistreatment from some brothers and sisters from here, I've also met some who consider me family and very happy to see me. At the end of the day, the lies and propaganda is told on both sides with the goal to divide us, some listen and others like me and my brother, we ain't got time for that. As far as we are concerned, all blacks are Africans and we will love them to the end of time no matter what anyone says.

[@travelingsista]

+King Kinjikitile I love what you said. It's true, the lies come from both ends. The people who are weak minded will adopt those mindsets and the people who aren't, won't. And I've heard the same thing about African- American wives as well as the other way around. I guess it's all about perspective.

Much love and respect to you King Kinjikitile! My ancestry is Nigeria, and I look forward to traveling there one day!

@f you that's right Well we honestly didn't waste a good opportunity. My mother and father grew up during Jim Crow and let's not forget what Cointelpro did to the black community. The fact that black Americans are even at this level in society is a miracle and shows how we have always persevered.

[@keepinitkawaii]

@f you that's right im assuming they dont know much about Black American history. My parents grew up during segregation. We are just now able to make anything for ourselves and many of us are still set way back. People forget that black people, though our culture is very well known around the world, make up only a small percentage in the US. We are still the lesser one even in America. Many Africans learn of this reality when they come to America.

[@saintejeannedarc9460]

@@keepinitkawaii I've found most Africans that go to America, or other blacks from the Caribbeans and such, do not have that experience of being treated as lessor, at all. In fact, black immigrants, esp. certain demographics like Nigerians, have among the highest income brackets and success. Higher than whites statistically, which should put to rest this nonsense that is peddled about unequal opportunity. When they come w/ strong family values, intact families, high education and a pit bull work and education ethic, ecstatic and grateful to make the most of the opportunities of the west, they succeed and surpass.
