Why Do Somalis Hate Other Africans? by Ainsky: 9:38pm On Oct 06, 2017
An honest question to the Somali lurkers here. Why do you hate other Africans? I saw a Somali thread from way back that spoke about how Somalis have nothing in common religiously/ culturally to black people. That is doing a disservice to the hundreds of millions of West African Muslims that are black. You say Somalis look different from other black people and they do. While most Somalis are dark skinned you have different facial features and hair to other Africans (Mainly because of massive migrations from Yemen.) However, non Somali/Ethiopian Africans have their own beauty. Saying their features are ugly is akin to white people saying Black skin is ugly. You say Somalians were not Enslaved but neither were several black countries in the East and South. The majority of slaves were taken from West Africa. The majority of soldiers that were taken to Europe fight world war 1 and 2 were from North Africa. Somalis may not have been enslaved but so many are refugees surviving due to the kindness of foreign lands. As for Slavery and Soldiers ? It was just what was more convinenient due to proximity. Somalia was colonized though. Just like most of Africa. You Say other Africans have so many issues but so does Somalia.

All in all I don't hate Somalis and I don't get why so many hate on other Africans. Like it or not you're stuck in Africa and all Africans have to work together regardless of race, religion or country in order to uplift the continent.

Somalians once tried to laid waste of our great Christian Ethiopian civilization by teaming up with Hararis, Afars, Argobbas, Hadiyas and some other Muslims back in the 16th century AD.

We also fought in the 1970s. But I've no hate feeling towards them. There was one Somali man here in Nairaland whom I liked.

I don't know what to tell you man. I wish you didn't care what we think of you and just lived your life. I first came to this site, because there were pictures of somali women being shown (one of them was a close family members). RIP nairaland, this site has gone to shits since I left a couple of years ago.

Artank occasionally appeared here for about 2 months I think after his 2 years absent. He then said Bye and will not going to be online here to me and some others and disappeared again.

As far as I know, me, Ednited, Aksumawi2805 and some 2 other persons (I forgot their username) other than you.

I'm not disrespecting you. What are you talking about?
