In America Blacks would call him brownskin believe it or not. The younger generation even classifies people like Nelly and T.I Color as "Caramel" now... They are trying to divide what is considered lightskin and fraction it into smaller and smaller groups as a means to overpower them(Politically) You now have to be "Drake" complexion to be considered Lightskin Now..... Let me get off this subject....lol *Reads other Post* |

Mrs.Chima: Lol. To be honest, it doesn't bother me. It doesn't hurt and I'm serious. I only hear such things on NL and they are funny. The antagonism for Igbo people is more of a political nature in Nigeria and not based genetics. 2 Likes |

Damn im trynna duck the skin complexion topic...But i see allot of it on the last page lol back to the Black Unity, and the Black Hate from those looking in from the outside. I explained many of the reasons why others and outsiders view us as Ignorant And Lazy.... In many stereotypes there is usually "some" truth in it Many americans(not just black) are indeed lazy and have zero drive because It's too Damn easy to live "comfortably" in America..... Because of Power,Wealth,Freedom... It has it's positives and it's negatives.... You see...the average "poor" american lives like a king compared to the rest of the world. I know many people who Have multiple cars, An apartment...Beautiful expensive items in their home, tons of jewelry But these people would still fall under the poor/working class financial bracket.. Bottom line it's just too damn easy to life comfortably in America (for most of us) As a Result the Average American Male becomes lazy and has no drive or desire.... You give the most 18-24 year old men a Air Conditioner, 50 Inch Tv, Video Game, Apartment,Car,Bed,Junk Food,and One Woman And he's "content" with that...... That^ Is to easy to achieve in America, because of so much freedom an Opportunity. As a result...So many Americans Lack the Drive to be Outstanding, because being Outstanding is not needed to live comfortable in This Country for the Majority In Other Countries...as a means of survival you have to be "Above Average"...So their Drive to Succeed is Higher. 1 Like |

stillwater: I hear you. My husband said similar to what you said. He said he will make sure that all of his children are proud to be Igbos regardless of what people think of Igbos. He is already quoting a bride price on Baby C and she ain't even had her period yet! Smh. |

Royal-VII: I see your point. I have said this before many times...yes America and UK has welfare system placed by the government however if other countries had welfare system........a man in Kenyan wouldn't be set on fire for stealing potatoes to survive. Yahoo boys wouldn't even have the time.....and you wouldn't have too many ashyhoes selling their arse for a dollar to the foreign tourists. Let keep it real. |

lmao @ this thread! Royal, i see u calling me Ignorant! i went to an HBCU; every time African Americans and Africans got together, this topic just had to be addressed....... we had to take classes on the issue, A.American history, the bullshit never ends! *sigh* I'm not going to have this debate on Nairaland....MBA NU! (i knw how this plays out) There is nothing new here that i haven't heard b4........ It's so funny that the thread is discussing Unity among Colored folks........ and Africans are "logically" blaming d disunity on A.Americans, while A. Americans are "intellectually" blaming the Africans....... at d end of d day, all u guys are going to do, is breed more disunity! lmao @ ppl tryna be smart.......rotflmao in Swahili ...the silly cycle never ends........ Concerning the Ebonics Royal, i would rather type Ebonics than having to type African American Vernacular when we all knw what ppl now commonly refer to as Ebonics. Since the 20th century, Ebonics has carried on a new meaning (lol). Lmfao @ ppl tryna prove their intelligence @Royal, i doubt u knw what Bigotry mean. U need to meet real narrow-minded Nigerians(mostly older generation), then u would knw Ogugua and Kandiikane are far from being a Bigot. P.S: Be warned! I'm prolly speaking bad English. lmao! 1 Like |

I don't believe in a English Purity hierarchy that is somehow dictated by Nationality or Race I told you already, Kandii and a couple of the other females were getting at London for using Slang Referring to it as "ghetto" and putting a negative connotation on to it I stated that this logic and way of thinking is clearly hypocritical, Those particular women speak in broken dialect and "Ghetto" Variants of english on this very forum every single day What are you offended by? Post the Comment that offended you and i will explain it. |

To Simplify. I own a Car You own the same Car I customize the car a certain way You customize the car another way Whose to say "either" of our "customization" of the original car is any More Superior to the Other? ..................... Maybe we should be celebrating our creative ways of customizing cars, instead of arguing over whose customization is more superior 1 Like |

Despicable-VII: Honestly i have yet to see anyone on this forum type with half way decent english since i been hereI do not think they meant to be derogatory they prolly couldn't understand what u guys were saying and wanted u to speak in a language they all could understand 1 Like |

She meant to be derogatory, I personally think spitting anti american remarks while having mod power in the thread moistened her Vaglna slightly lol After hiding each one of my replies which contained no profanity or vulgar language while i was explaining their ignorant logic.... She then transitioned to having a go at "ghetto british" people.... This wonderful display of Bigotry coming off her legendary display of calling a darkskinned gambian woman braiding hair "ghetto" and alluding to the fact she may live in a mud hut LoL anything associated with her own deluded "perceptions" of what is "negative" about the black race, she calls "ghetto" Weather it be creative speech.... Weather it be clothing attire... Ect... she has a history of this. And that Quote i Stand By 100% I was dead serious. 1 Like |

Pretty much the people who have the ability to speak proper english choose not to do it 100% of the time The Remaining Population seem to be incapable of such. Yea, that's pretty accurate. |
