Shame on you, KZbin creators, for perpetuating discrimination against other black people for likes and money. Instead of spreading misinformation, take a trip to Jamaica and ask the locals about their thoughts on Americans. Remember, Jamaica's motto is 'Out of Many One People' - a powerful symbol of unity and diversity. It's time to debunk the myth that Jamaicans think Black Americans lack culture. In reality, Jamaicans love and welcome Black Americans, which is why so many visit their shores. Don't sacrifice the unity of black people worldwide for fleeting fame and fortune. We're stronger together, and our differences are far outweighed by our commonalities. Let's stand united, respecting and uplifting each other as one people.

Ok, lets solve the problem, theres an African American Reperations Fund on GOFUNDME, lets shut this shit down right now, if we wont work together on this I dont know what to tell yall, $1 x 1m people = $1m. Now imagine doing that 50 times. $50 from ever black person in America could change our entire community, but lets see what the real problem is. I dont understand why we are still waiting on them people to change something for us, wtf are we 12? Do we need our hand held? WHY ARE WE WAITING??? The lady from Tulsa is a prime example, shes still alive and they still threw the case out for her Reperations, I cant sit here and watch us become sitting ducks for another 4 years, time and time again they have shown us they do not give a Fuc About us, they gave the immigrants free housing and debit cards before they gave it to their own veterans who actually sacrificed for us to be here. They will do everything in their power to keep us in the working class WAKE UP and stop relying on somebody else to do the job for us, we have the resources. $1 from at least half of us every other week is enough to OFFICIALLY build Black Wallstreet just like Chinatown in every major city in America. 1 street with all those scattered black businesses moved there, Doctors,lawyers,financial advisors,restuarants, boutiqes, dentist, temp angencies ect. All on 1 street and all from $1. Were making it more complicated than it has to be. All the money goes into furthering any POC's financial stability and ideas as long as they support, if those people dont support they do not deserve to reap the benefits. Lets build Black Wallstreet please, yall making my head hurt, its not that hard

African American culture has been marketed and distributed around globally. That's one reason why it's so popular. We all have culture. What differentiates us of African descent is our traditions, rituals, and customs. In certain African villages and towns, they celebrate specific culture festivals dedicated to an event or persons. I'm from New Orleans, and our culture is unlike anywhere else in the continental USA. We have daily, weekly, monthly and yearly Afro Creole cultural activities that define our lives. There's traditions we uphold. There's rituals we perform. There's customs we pass on to the youth. It's in our foods, speech, spirituality, music, and dance. Jazz Funerals and Secondlines are good examples. This African amalgamation of ethnicities became who we are today. It's in our DNA. Start where you stand. For all these reasons, Congo Square is our African foundation for roots and culture.

Unfortunately the ignorance about Africa is not surprising at all. Countries have very little to do with cultures in Africa. The different cultures are more associated with the tribes/ethnic groups that have existed long before America was a thing (before slavery even). These tribes have there own languages, different food, different religion, traditional rulers and festivals. These tribes are even genetically different. For those that can't fathom it, there are more native languages in Nigeria alone than the entire Europe. The ignorance is actually funny

Africans are grateful for that and will always be, because the initiative was good Africa. But let me inform you: The history of Liberia, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries, is marked by complex interactions and conflicts between the Americo-Liberians (freed African Americans who emigrated to Liberia) and the indigenous African populations. Here are some of the key issues and events that illustrate the conflicts and injustices: 1. **Social Hierarchy and Discrimination**: Americo-Liberians, who established Liberia, created a social and political system that marginalized the indigenous African population. They often viewed themselves as superior and imposed their own culture, language, and governance structures on the indigenous people. 2. **Land and Resource Control**: The Americo-Liberian settlers often took control of the most fertile lands and resources, displacing indigenous communities. This led to significant economic disparities and resentment among the indigenous population. 3. **Forced Labor and Taxation**: There were instances where indigenous Liberians were subjected to forced labor and unfair taxation. The Americo-Liberian government implemented policies that required indigenous people to pay taxes in cash or kind, which was often burdensome and exploitative. 4. **Political Exclusion**: The political system established by the Americo-Liberians excluded indigenous Africans from meaningful participation. The True Whig Party, dominated by Americo-Liberians, maintained power for over a century, creating a de facto oligarchy that marginalized the majority indigenous population. 5. **Violence and Repression**: There were instances of violence and military repression used against indigenous groups who resisted Americo-Liberian rule. These conflicts often resulted in loss of life and further entrenched divisions between the settlers and the indigenous people. 6. **Cultural Suppression**: Americo-Liberians often attempted to suppress indigenous cultures and traditions, promoting Western values and norms instead. This cultural imposition created additional tensions and resentment. The legacy of these actions has had a lasting impact on Liberia's social and political landscape, contributing to longstanding divisions and conflicts within the country.

Yoruba as a language predates the modern English language by over 5 centuries. Black Americans are just funny people, the reason why people "dress like you" is because of Hollywood. Hollywood created the "cool black kid" character in almost every sitcom in the 70s and 80s. Hollywood has always had an insane reach, so the more kids consumed that content, the more they wanted to dress like those characters. It's like how everyone including black people wanted to learn martial arts due to the volume of those kind of movies Hollywood made back then. Same thing is happening with japanese and Korean culture, thanks to manga and kdrama. There is nothing special about black American "culture", baseball hats were made for "baseball", Nike shoes were made for basketball. The fact that some of those companies made you guys mascots and had Hollywood sell that image doesn't mean it was made for you. It doesn't originate with you. Our culture originates with us, our languages, our cuisine all originates with us.

Hmmm… As a Caribbean/American man to parents from both the Caribbean and mainland (what we refer to as America), I have a unique perspective. Since less than a year old, I traveled back and forth every year to spend time with my dad for the summers. What I think Caribbeans, Africans, Black Brits are trying to say is the following: - Despite being born to the respective locations mentioned above, there is a nurturing of history, identity, and greatness as a people. This nurturing is both protected and insulated from whatever external influences are at play, despite their coexistence. - In the above mentions locations (example Caribbean), we grow up learning about our regional culture before and side by side American culture. - In our communities, we see Blacks in all positions or success, so we see no limitations, due to conflicting ethnic grows trying to suppress (micro aggressions, racism, etc.) our culture/identity. It just isn’t tolerated. - In America, American Blacks have had to deal with coexisting cultures from slavery to present. On top of this, their identity has been influenced by those who wish to keep them suppressed or from achieving their greatness as a people without external meddling from other cultures. - As for the guest speakers comments about Black Americans being too generous and other Black communities taking what they have created, I challenge him to list any time in American culture where Caribbean culture has influence America and Black Americans significantly. Marcus Garvey, Toussaint Louverture, Malcom X, James Weldon, Bob Marley, etc. anyone? - Caribbean culture are the distinct customs, foods, music, vernacular, dances, etc. that each Caribbean island is known for. While many of these things overlap from island to island, each island has their unique twist on customs, speech, food, etc. What I think Caribbeans, Africans, and Black Brits are trying to say is their identity is instilled by their respective cultures who had made it paramount that they know who they are, their greatness as a people, etc. in a way that is insulated from the potentially harmful actions of those who wish to see them fail. Lastly, I once argued with an African doctor who was looking down on Black Americans. I simply asked him two question…. Do you think the average Black American growing up was afforded an upbringing that nurtured and supported their identity in a way that there are no limits to their greatness? Do you think that their identity is as solidified as yours which has been forged in a protected culture untampered with by other ethnicities trying to suppress them?

He knows nothing about Africa, but I'll say this; Slavery lasted longer in Africa than most people know, and the movie “La Amistad” is a proof. The “Freed slaves” he's talking about weren't sent back for any good reasons. They were sent back to continue colonial rule and maintain colonial establishments. They were also sent back because after the abolition of slavery there were so many unemployed ex- slaves roaming the streets of Europe, and so one option was to send people back like the English P.M is doing now. Read about what the French did to countries who asked for their freedoms and said they wanted nothing to do with them ex. Guinea, Conakry. The change in African culture happened because of reasons, like: 1. Survival: Africans were forced to change their old ways because things like land tax, system of governance was implemented (Hut tax war, Sierra Leone). 2. Education: The colonizers brought education that was supposed to be paid for with money that never existed. 3. European dress standard became a norm for people to be able to have access to places like, schools and jobs.

I'm nigerian and I think we must learn to respect and love one another .Over the centuries we've been taught to hate ourselves and by extension each other . We must un learn that because at the end of the day we are all connected ! We have the same swagger ,the same sense of rhythm ,the same athleticism etc and where there are differences its just another version of the same thing ! Its not a coincidence ! The musical genres created by black Americans (who I think are the worlds coolest people) have boosted the black mans image immensely ! It was as a result of their African heritage and the pain and suffering they went through .It was a subconscious effort to re connect with their roots ! There's traditional african music where the musicians brag about how great they are pretty much like rappers do! They also come up with lyrics on the spot which nowadays rappers call freestyling. I"ve also seen traditional african dancing that's almost identical to break dancing ! These elements existed long before europeans created the artificial borders in africa today .

Now their are some BP in the UK and Europe that have said a few ignorant things about BA they are usually African, and they say the same things about carribean people too. One thing we must understand is that all skin folk are not kin folk. The decentants of slavery all around the world were different people from African today. We decentants of slaves had to start from scratch and have achieved so much. All the world looks to us for culture and copies us. The African had so many resources, and the colonisers were continuously taking them, and they were poor. Instead of them hating on the colonisers they hate on the decentants of slaves.

@denisewest2858 I agree with most of what you wrote, except this statement, "These African are not our people and will side with the oppressor time and time again." There are many Africans who are pan-Africanists in mindset and have contributed the betterment of all black people over the world. However, I will agree with you that some Africans in the diaspora have "inflated ego syndrome" and like to look down on AA's in America and Caribbean blacks in the UK. This is bcs many of them who are able to immigrate out of their country are highly educated professionals who feel they have to distinguish themselves from us in order to please their white employers and fit into their predominately white neighborhoods. They do not understand that attaining success in the Western European world does not preclude one from supporting and building the black community. In fact successful black people need to do more to build black communities in the diaspora, just like other minorities do in their communities. Read about how wealthy German Jews in the late 19th century supported and donated to the plight of Russian Jewish immigrants to America. They built hospitals, schools, yeshivas, and food banks for their poorer coreligionists. By the way I am a US born of Caribbean descent.

Dude just forgot to mention that there are more 2000 ethnicities in Africa which have their languages, Cuisine, Art, Folclore and Music, and before there were the modern Countries of Africa, there were the Kingdoms and Empires that Arabs and Europeans destroyed, but not all trends created in America are absorbed or incorporated in Africa, needless to say many things created by Black Americans were also inspired by African Culture or had a African Contribution, from Blues, to Jazz, to Soul, to Rock, to Hip-Hop & Rap. For example, the Peanut Butter that is very popular in USA it’s know to be introduced by a Black Man, and why I say introduced and not invented, because it’s an Ingredient in many African Traditional Cuisines, especially in West and Southern Africa, where most of the Slaves brought to USA came from. What must be comprehended is that Black Americans are losing their Culture because of the Breakdown and Destruction of Black American Families, because families sticking together and creating Communities is what keep cultures alive. Today in USA you have Soul, R&B, Rock, Blues, Jazz, Pop, Country Music, Hip-Hop & Rap, but not all of these genres were incorporated in African Music nor are commonly listened, because we have are own, the only USA music genre incorporated in African Mainstream Music is Rap, and even with the African Population being mostly Young (under 20 Years Old), Rap is not most listened Genre among them, because we stick to our Culture first. As I said before, the criticism of today Black American Culture by Africans and Caribbean has everything to do with what Black America has become, mainly the Ghetto Culture that the Media Mainstreams, because if You a Caribbean or an African were Rap, Rock, Funk, Soul, Jazz, R&B come from, they will explain, but They put always their music genres first, because of culture.
