koyyes: Rants the being who doesn't understand the meaning of 'western influence'.Go ahead, It seems you refuse to be educated are keeping to your own opinion like the rest of your westernized cronies up top. This iwhy tradittialists gave up on the rest of Africa and just want to keep to themselves. I guess all good things do come to an end.

Honestly as AA black man of African descent I don't know if im qualified to speak on this but I will .I don't think it is a inferiority complex I just think it's all about personal choices.my family for instance descended from Africans who were captured and sold off For other trading goods many were beaten , raped ,hung ,killed and against their will their culture became Obsolete.the truth is following their capture and their betrayal by their own kind some came to the new world and willing adopted another culture as a way of survival but kept only one tradition alive depending on their choice .my Family's choice was to keep ancestral Reverance Alive hiding it behind what We know as Africanized Christian faith .My great great grandmother was even considered a witch by most and a medicine woman by some because she Knew what herbs worked for this or that . |

koyyes: oh, so you can stand for the chinese and say that they haven't been influenced by the western world even when it is glaring for all to see but you can't say same for Africa?Nothing you've shown points to that conclusion. If you had a reasonable level of education, you'd have seen that. looool. Then what are you doing here on nairaland (created by someone using western technology to make good cash)*yawns* Since when did the eastern world suddenly become western? exchanging words in ENGLISH with people?The colonialists you love so much didn't exactly put us in a good position. How hell do you think people in the Benin, Oyo or Asante kingdom coped with living in a state spanning several ethnic groups? You should be busy slaving for the whites like a hopeless coward as you've decided within you to do so. Ioooool. I'm very happy I've been able to expose the real person you are on this thread.Yes. Thanks for giving me a reason to post more google scholar links. I am happy to have helped educate more people on their history. Pro african culture my as#! Even with your hatred for us,at least you identified us with a name- NIGERIANS!Where did I say I hate NIgerians. I only hate WESTERNIZED Africans who think they are more "civilized" but have provided nothing to show for. And with all this backwardness stemming from this arrogance, still have the audacity to blame their forward thinking forefathers. Now that colonialism has occurred, Show me ONE thing modern-day Africa has right now that makes them more advanced than their forefathers in the 19th century. But where are you from- Caribbean?Did I specify where I was from exactly or just my blood? please, don't make me laugh! Anyways, I feel your pain, its not easy being called racist and demeaning names without taking it out on the 'free borns'. Take heart, and say hi to your master when you get to work. You want to see an ancient africa in 2014? Loooooooooooool! Its either you've been on cheap drugs for years or you are a confirmed reeeetard!Gosh! Even ancient Africa is more inline with 2014.

In fact, I believe Africans are better to work with than caribbeans in ending worldwide embarrassment of people of African decent. They have their own languages, a real history full of great thinkers, the population and resources to become the next world-power, not as distracted by thug-life as Jamaicans are, etc. I am simply trying to help bring out great indigenous knowledge to help Africa educate western blacks because I believe they secretly know how to build prosperous societies like they once did. Read what their forefathers could do... "Relations at Benin followed a similar pattern, though Europeans there were even more subordinate since the powerful kingdom did not permit them to erect any outposts on its territory. For their part, Europeans were impressed with Benin not just because of the commercial possibilities of the kingdom's pepper (Piper guineense), its cotton textiles, and its ivory, but also because of its striking capital city, its large palace complex, and its artisans' great skill. Many sixteenth- and seventeenth-century visitors commented extensively on Benin's capital city, which was surrounded by a massive earthen wall five or six miles in circumference and pierced at intervals by large gates fashioned from the trunk of a single tree. From the gates, broad streets ran in straight lines across the city, intersecting at right angles. Dutch accounts deemed the thirty main streets to be as wide as the great avenues of Amsterdam, Within the city, houses of ordinary citizens had earthen walls and thatched roofs, which European observers considered airy and very pleasant. Their walls and floors were polished "as smooth and as even as any plastered wall in Holland and as shining as a looking-glass." 13 |

Or are you calling those that built paved roads, tall buildings, submarines, good health care, law, freedom of choice, political inclusiveness, barbarians?

Your self hatred is oozing all over this thread. Your ancestors sold your forefathers in chains and they were forced to work on the plantation field. Now, blacks there are regarded as 3rd class citizens. How did you handle it? You are seeking refuge in a white man's land, slaving your as# out, ordering chinese products through gadgets that you did not invent, sleeping with white women and doing their meals and dishes. Then every time a white kid calls you racist names, you come here on nairaland and transfer your aggression on nigerians . You say you hate westernized africans but you by no way see yourself as one? Men, you are a complete eeeediot! I don't blame you, I blame the nigerians here who support your hypocritical and contradicting comments when ever you spew nonsense to their fellow nigerians. Some one from haiti who did nothing when the UN soldiers were raping their women in exchange for food can appear on nairaland and indirectly blame nigerians for that. It's a good thing people here are beginning to see how much of a self hated reeetard you are, ready to spread self hatred under the pretense of spreading african culture awareness. Loooooooool.

Just to reposting from another thread regarding Koyyes. kingston277:koyyes:Dude, nobody cares where your chair came from. After all, why isn't your chair made in Cameroon, Niger or Ghana? Because Nigeria/west are the only sources available to you? So how can you expect me to gain access to Caribbean/African goods? By import? You Want me to import a huge a.ss leather computer chair? I can only use what is availble to me. But unlike you, I actually buy from my own ethnic group as many times as I can, therefor keeping money within my community and by extension, funnelling back to Africa/Caribbean. African expatiates in Portugal did the same thing back in the 16th century, that is why Africa was more wealthy and prosperous than your glorified, "more civilized" dumping ground for western nations that you currently live in right now. |
