What Is The Borderline Between Tribalism And Apologist? by Reggie2(m): 5:54pm On Feb 21, 2012 |
Mutual accusations of tribal and ethnic bigotry are quite common among Nairalanders. My question is, what is the borderline between bigotry and Apologist? Is highlighting of merits, achievements, and values of one's tribe an act of tribalism? In my my opinion, it is when such traits are placed over other people's tribes that tribalism sets in.Taking the defence of undue attacks on one's tribe amounts to being an apologist but returning such attacks will be tribalism. Your contribution may help me to reconsider my utterances since I would rather be an Apologist. |
