It was an African You Tuber or on some social media platform said that before they came to America, white ppl were telling them to stay away from black Americans and things like that. There were Africans in the comments telling her to take it down like she was starting mess. I already felt that they were talking down on us to them. I see Africans going to white churches but the city I'm from, I don't see Africans going to church with black Americans . I see some black Americans going to African churches with African pastors. I've even visited. White ppl caused division in the black communities from separating families, didn't want for us to learn and now they bash us for not a lot of black ppl not being in a two family household and make fun of how a lot of us talk..they intentionally caused division in light and dark skin ppl that still is strong today. They've done so much damage and let them tell it, it was so long ago and get over it. Things are still going on. The '60's weren't that long ago and all the marchings that had to be held to be able to get a good education in a school where white ppl went. As long as they can keep dividing black ppl and black ppl from Africans, they know they can have some kind of hold on us. When ALL black ppl come together, we would be unstoppable!

[@sherithomas6480]

WP are behind the degradation of the AA communities. The education is intentionally substandard, which really is a determining factor in your future success! Harassment and massive incarceration of AAM, and this does not include the actual criminals. The massive incarceration took men out of the communities but simultaneously promoted gay encounters between men in prisons and outside. These gay encounters result in high rates of diseases, particularly AIDs, because they lie and say they are not gay. AAW has the highest rates of HIV in the country as a result. Grown men raping boys and other men. These men hate their own women and children and help further destroy our communities. WM ship military grade weapons into our communities via trains and tractor-trailers and distributed without cost. Note, all guns are coming from just 6 gun manufacturers and have serial numbers and are highly regulated . The train companies are in on this, including law enforcement. It is sooo obvious that I warned my boys in elementary school that when they enter middle school, they will be approached and be offered to buy a gun for less than 40.00. I also taught them that that same gun would cost me about three to four hundred dollars to buy legally! I taught them it was the WM trap to get you to murder your own people, which is self genocide ! So fast forward when they got in middle school they were approached and offered 🔫 guns for 40.00 dollars. They turned them down due to my teachings and still do not own guns even though I think that they should look into purchasing them now due to off the chain crime !

[@annetterenaud5508]

The breakdown of family values starts from trans Atlantic slavery… children taken from parents, not being able to legally marry and forced to have children with slave masters (or worse in jamaica, where the term “mother fu@@er” comes from). The breakdown in family originated from what most of the world forgets or acknowledges including our brothers and sisters in west Africa and South Africa. Fast forward to the welfare system and that’s a whole other conversation… it’s goes too deep to even explain

I actually agree that it may be easier here for Africans coming from places like Nigeria. But to overlook what we go through in this country would be foolish. We do have more opportunities than a lot of African countries but we definitely don’t have the resources. So we may not be doing back breaking work for cheap and u can make money here and not have to slave per se but in exchange for what? You can actually own land in Africa.Completely own land. You can lease land in America because if u stop paying taxes they will take it from you. You can have the money here and still be denied the access of other groups. You can save money here and go back to Africa and live comfortably. Because I know u don’t plan to retire here in America. The difference is no matter how much money u have in this country u are still treated as less than. We built this country and to this day they call us lazy. We literally built this country. You as a Nigerian coming here have access to more capital and loans than I will ever be. They even make people who look like us turn against us. And y’all just go along with it. I hope you know they hate u just as much as me. There is opportunities for outsiders here but for the ones born and raised here it’s an everyday struggle. And we wish you could see that.

Who do you think send TV programs to Africa? We grew up watching the worse things about African Americans on TV besides Micheal Jackson and a few others. In Nigeria we see white supremacy living well on TV and the AA not doing well. The white man tells us that they were given every opportunity but they were lazy and refused the to work m, go to school or chase money when it’s there for the taking. No one tells us about institutionalised racism and state sponsored discrimination, violence against black communities etc. It is always a shock to grow up and see the realities of the AA. As an African in breaks you, here you thought one group of blacks people are living the life, at least half of them who choose to. Then you see a police kneel down in the throat of your king distant relative and kill him deliberately then the veil falls from your eyes abc you see the most evil creatures that ever walked the Earth and his skin is pink even if he claims he is white. You start to ask questions while others burry their head in the sand afraid to find out the truth. The average Africans are still like that. No body thought I’d our own history in school. 75% plus of 1.4 billion under the age of 30 if you count the Arabs. None of them understand colonialism or the slave trade, proper evil of racism until they are adults. Our leaders let us down. African migrants will stay in Africa if they were thought in childhood about how evil the shire man is and the fact that he is incapable of change so long as he remains dominant.

Ferguson, The Day Law of 1904, Lynching, literacy tests for black americans in the 1940s and 50s in which during the 40s and 50s African Americans largely where barred from going to the same educational institutions and black only institutions where largely disenfranchised through white european nationalist movements that destroyed buildings, homes, and Black American economic movements like Black Wall Street.

As I read the comments most do not believe her and find it ridiculous but it's true.

This stereotype was one of the more tame and polite stereotypes about AA/black Americans from a west African… the issue is that a lot of black people from other countries do not know the history of black Americans.

[@lorrainemounts2416]

This is all an illusion about Americans in general. What immigrants don't realize is that America is a debtor nation. We don't have all the money in the world, we have all the credit in the world and all the debt in the world. Yes, we have many more opportunities than Africa, but if you don't use them wisely, you may end up in debt. Just food for thought.

[@PKBassPlaya]

Most of you commenting here are totally oblivious to how hip hop culture has influenced the world. When we see artistes with heavy chains and very expensive jewelry, expensive cars etc so definitely we would think that all black Americans are like that. When you glorify gang culture, violence and verbally abuse women in the lyrics of your music, we definitely think that's how you folks are. We watch your media and always see young black adults killing each other in Chicago like flies, in Boston, Detroit and many of these inner cities and then protest when a white person says the N word 🤔. We always ask ourselves why white people aren't killing each other like this at this rate? Young black women give birth to multiple children with different fathers and and it's seen as normal and not a problem. Because of failed leadership in our African countries which have made it nearly impossible to thrive under the conditions we're in, we find America to be a land full of opportunities. A lot of our people go there and make it big and live good lives. They say the system works if you're willing to work hard. They just say don't marry an American woman because she'll wait till you've made it then divorce you and take all your money and your children. These are many of the perception of black Americans that we have just from observation. In light of all these observations, it then begs the question that if black Americans are racially oppressed as they always say, why is it the case that when Nigerians, Ghanaians, Kenyans and other African groups get there, they do exceptionally well? Last time I checked, we're all black and the only reasonable answer I can come up with is that the culture is different. A lot of vices are being glorified in the black American community which Africans would never tolerate. And because of the glorification of these vices overtime, it just became part and parcel of black American culture which has generations of damaging effects on the community. This is how a lot of us Africans see things from the outside.

[@golden_lion4133]

Your comment is extremely ignorant of Black Americans, very one sided and egotistical. You need to educate yourself about how AAs experience living in the US and what it is actually like to be here. You seriously think just because black immigrants come here and be successful that there's no obstacles holding Black Americans from the same success? If you actually knew what you were talking about you would know white on white crime here is major. The country is majority white. DUH. White people are killing themselves all the time. The people who get killed the most by the police are white. Your type of attitude and about a group of people you don't even know (or even care about) is why as a black American I will NEVER step foot in Africa. A lot of y'all just hate black Americans for no damn reason but have a weird jealous obsession with us simultaneously. At the same time y'all want us to 'come home' and help y'all rebuild. Make it make sense.

[@Bander471]

By your thinking, we should think the continent of Africa is riff with tribal wars, Massacres, starvation, and everyone lives in jungles chasing lions to steel their kill. However, we are the ones fighting that African stereotype here in America because we have dealt with the same thing here from day one to precent day. Yet, when we try to school Immigrants on the lay of the land, many turn their nose up and accept the lies told about us. It's not until they feel the reality, that they come back calling us "brother". Let me return your question to you. Why is it that African Americans go to Africa and do better than many Africans? Why is it that our collective spending power is more than practically every African countries GDP? Your type of thinking is what's holding the continent back.

[@NurseSnow2U]

Super intriguing comment. Appreciate your perspective. I’m going to bookmark this because I’m on break at work (I’m an RN) - but I will revisit this later and share my perspective on your perspective because a lot of the things you said I agree with 100% but the same as all Africans aren’t tribal, primitive individuals…not all of us Black Americans participate in the culture you see represented (ironically enough I was born and raised in Detroit) and I think it’s very important to also be able to contextually recognize where these things stem from - not to justify them at all because accountability is a pillaged resource these days and it will take a multitude of generations to nurture and “undo” it so to speak. Cognitive dissonance and indoctrination are still very big factors and separatist agenda (divide and conquer) is still clearly working very well, true to “their” plan (by this I mean the powers that be not white people because they experience poverty and so called “inner city” recklessness here too i.e. trailer parks / trailer “trash”).

[@PKBassPlaya]

Those at home have their work cut out for them as well to maintain the sacred ness and hold the community of wholesome oneness together as they hold the barriers up against outside, forces, foreigners, and invaders.... What they of home see in us... We see in them... But... It's not money... We both have something the other needs... We both seek huge need for opportunity, The closeness and support of family... Freedom of expression... To be safe and confident in our own skin... To be of community against all odds... To bring back required logistics both sides require to remain our sacred selves, without becoming totally currupt by the same matrix doing the damage to us in the first place... The system realized a long time ago, that we are a different type of people who operate more inner(mentally & spiritually), than outer ( materialistically), leaving or separating ourselves from Source Creator... Some mention we are not from the continent... We all are, we were simply sent out or off the continent at different times, for different projects, to accomplish different things ... If Source says game over and everyone out on assignment is to return home.... Because Source may plan to make the continent like Ark and sink the rest... Yet you have those arguing that they are not of the continent... Well... As they say... They'll go down with a ship that was never really theirs... Put another way, a hard head make a soft or life ending behind ... We are One people of One Source, Created and operated by Source with the ability of free will and free choice... Which we have actually given away to the matrix, By not realizing our gift of magic.... Which is believing through thought... Whatever we believe is manifested... Good or Bad Everyone knows that about us except us... We can change anything by believing...

As a proud African I can say she is correct in a way, African Americans influence us greatly because we see them as Africans who have made it or are in far better conditions than us,I must make it clear that not all Africans think like that...we have rich and poor like everybody else in the world,some Africans are living just as good if not better than African Americans and some not so much... Another issue we need to speak more on ss black people is the fact there a indigenous people in America that look like Africans but are not,they are the natives... I think it's important we get more information about them because we usually mix them with African Americans...they are the American Americans😂❤
