Hi I'm an African-American, and I would like to answer any question, no matter what it may be, you have about my people. I'm here to help you clear up any lingering thoughts about us in which you may have and want clarification on.

When will an african american become american president?

When will an african american become american president?

Humm, well I guess you're insinuating that Obama isn't an African-American in retrospect to him not being a descendant of slaves brought to the nation long ago. Well if that is the case, then my answer to you is that I have know idea, though I personally think that it will be in 2016.

hmm, so Hero, you think you'll speak for all African-Americans? Good for you. Keep it up! chhrrrrrpsssssssss.

Anywho, if you do have answers about afro-americans, then answer dis: would an afro-american woman rather have periods twice a month or have water get on her new hair do? YOU CAN'T ANSWER DAT NOW CAN YOU? NOPE!! cuz u aint an AA woman. u can only answer things pertaining to yourself honey.

answer this: would an afro-american woman rather have periods twice a month or have water get on her new hair do? YOU CAN'T ANSWER DAT NOW CAN YOU?

Hmmm. I think I can answer that if I'm permitted.

Hero:

Humm, well I guess you're insinuating that Obama isn't an African-American

Not at all. No insinuations

Hero:

though I personally think that it will be in 2016.

Any research or just a wild guess?

AAs are a very diverse groups. I think for this to have meaning we need a number of AAs to give their point of view.

@poster,why do AA's eat akpu with ofe onugbo with fork and knife ?

They would rather have periods 10 times a month if it does'nt come with any pain and it could all be converted to gas, considering the current price.  

Why are AA's so insecure.
yálll love to play on the 'we have no money' ride

Why do current CDC statistics state that one in two "Black" American females have an STD?  While their white counterparts record one in four? YOU only make up about 13% of of the US gen pop.  What's up with that? Our African brothers are in some serious trouble ooooooooooooooooooooh! You know it will definitely spread to the motherland on those famous Christmas trips every year. May God save us all from your new religion.

Una legs no dey clooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooose?

Is spreading the gospel according to STDs a new religion for you guys, looking for converts?

Lmao AJ, please ask them

Can I also know why when they have their numerous babies they still dress like color blind children?

Why do they try so hard to copy the dressing of prisoners? The ONLY reason why prisoners have their pants falling off their ass is cos they are not allowed to wear belts in order to reduce suicide in cells, are they aware of this and that it's not actually a fashion statement?

Why are they allergic to condoms (this is actually to the entire black race)

Una (AA's) and oyibo who f**k pass?

9 out of 10 times una spread una leggs, una dey carry belle! na only una dey f**K abi prevention no mean anything to una?

when una go ever become FATHER? instead of BABY DADDY?

Slave trade don pass way way before me I come Yankee, when una go stop to blame oyibo and work hard like others?

I no even wan ask why una dey sag una pants!

why una dey spend more money on Rims and sound system for car wey dey almost dead and una no fit put gas ($2 on pump $2)

Why most of una no get drivers license?

Why you think say you fit answer all African-American questions no matter watin the ? be?

Sweet luck of mine!!!! I've always wanted a chance to "ask an africa-american a question"!!!!! Dreams do come true!!! hisssssssssssss

Ikomi:

Ikomi, ra nsi! lol!!! wat are u talking about dearie? i didnt state those conditions

@post
why do some (most) of their women think that street talk is attracting, esp when their men abuse them with it.
for ex: come here bitch, and give me a kiss?


Why can't you guys learn to wear a belt? and when you do. . .it's always by the knees? what's the point of wearing a pant if your briefs are showing? you might as well go pant less


why do the men think braiding hair is sexy and attractive. . . (my opinion: i think it's untidy and unattractive. i dnt get the point. i like a man that goes to the barber to get his haircut)

why do you guys (goes for all AA) hate being called "blacks" yet you call your best friends/friends/ haterz NIGGAZ OR Nigga? i mean, does it make sense. if you ask me, i'll rather like being called black than to be called nigga.

as someone asked. . .what is so hard and evil about using condoms? b/c as you can see, HIV/AIDs rate is increasing. . . esp among AA in US.


will think of more. . .laterz

One question: why do a majority of AAs detest going to school?

Sorry one more question: Why are AAs so condescending to native Africans?

Ooops just one more . . . _{i promise} . . . When will AAs begin to realise that life does not start and end with being a rapster or gangsta?

Do the women love being called bitches?
Why is almost all rap song about "my booty is bigger than yours"? Forgetting AAs have more problems than they can chew.
Can't a woman be sexy if she puts on some clothes in music videos?
I don't get the grills, chains, sagging pants.

Me and my friend were going to this party and i was slowing them down

someone even jokinly told me that it would be easy for me to steal a goat and hide it inside it without anybody noticing
I just abandoned it. . . . . . . . .A.A are really trying. . . .

Hey Hero . . . just one more question: Why do i find it easier to understand white people when they speak English than AAs?

Looks like you people have scared the hell out of Hero

@poster

What does having a nasty gold tooth mean? How is it possible that people can afford to don on gold caps for their teeth as "Black" Americans but can only visit a dentist once in 20 years?

Why is it that most "Black" athletes were said to have been on "sports" scholarships but you see the sports in them and not the education? Does it mean that they do not take regular courses in schools other than "sports"?

Abeg Hero come answer your questions ohh!!, i dey wait

Why do African American ladies shake their heads and hands in a crazy way when talking like if they are dancing?

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post. I am a black American and I can't speak for ALL of us but I can try my best to answer these questions.

@ AJ
In regards to AJ's CDC statistic, my boss works for them so I'll have to ask. But I do know that in Atlanta (which is where I live at the moment), the fact that there is a HUGE downlow scene (downlow=men (usually black)who have unprotected gay sex undercover, while proclaiming their straight) and that usually these men are having unprotected sex with their women who THINK they are in a monogamous relationship. I find fault with the guy for outright deceiving and there are also some men who know they are effected with the virus BUT want to spread it from person to person. The woman needs to take protection into her own hands, popping a birth control pill doesn't scare of diseases. And I think people need to do periodic STD testing but that's just me. I rather be safe than sorry!

@ D-reloaded,

I have no idea what you are talking about, actually. HA. But I don't have any kids so that might explain it.

Dressing like prisoners? I guess it depends on where you are located. In the inner city maybe that's the right of passage, I have no idea. I see some of that walking the streets of the ATL and I personally hate it. I'm a fan of buying clothes that fit and even in the mainstream rappers don't wear things as baggy as they used too SO I hope that awful ass way of dressing will disappear.

@ morenike09

Most of us don't like to be called a bitch. The ones I do are street or “hood” and that's all they know. Once you leave that life (if you want) and get some sense about you, then that way of thinking falls by the side.

The braid thing. All the AA's I know have natural hair. The only person I know that puts his hair in braids sometimes is the African guy I used to know. I personally LOVED it when his hair was out and all over the place but he said the braids helped to keep his hair maintained since he had so much of it.

I don't call anyone nigga, niggaz, etc. I don't like the word and I don't like to be called that word. In fact, I don't even like the word said around me. :

@4Him,

If you knew how some of the school systems ARE in the US, you would detest them too. Most of the schools in the predominately black areas have devastating school structure. Supplies, teachers, activities are sub-par. How can you promote learning and acceptance when everything is second or third hand. Also, most people want to get out of the ghetto, in order to get out, you need to make quick money. Going to school is NOT quick enough for them. Sad but true.

I think the condescension goes both ways. Africans do the same to us and vice versa. I know, in school I was taught Africa was a big continent that was it. I knew nothing about it, I wanted to visit there one day (maybe), the people that I saw kept to themselves. I even dated someone from the Carribean in college and they told me to stay away from my African roommates, it was odd. I don't know what the deal is, honestly. People are scared of what they don't know. Now, I've met a lot of people from your continent and I loved them all but I opened myself up to it. If you are closed off, then it won't work. I still see this on both sides. I've heard just as many stories of Africans looking down between us AA's without realizing that WE aren't all the SAME. Just like you want us to see that you aren't.

Ok, I have to take a little break. I hope I shed some light, somewhat. : )

ehee watin be the name of that fake hair women wear?

why do some AA girls wear some crazy colours of wigs? you see someone walking around with some red, blue, blond hair while them black pass my yash



why I dey waste my time sef? Hero don Zoom off! poor guy

and my people, if that guy go hang himself na we cox am oh!    I'm out.

@ Almond Joy,

The scholarship question. I know for a fact that some teachers pass the student's grade on how "well" they do during their sports season. Sad but true. I can't stand that, they need to bust their butt on and off the field just in case the professional sports career doesn't happen! People never want to have a back up plan, it bugs me!

Why are Black american women so hateful to other black women? Where's the sense of loyalty?

What the hell is the point of "youknowImean" when they didnt even say anything in the first place so how the hell am i supposed to know what they mean?

Why dont black people ever get out of slave mentality, why the hell do they still eat theb remnants of pig parts which was left to them when they were house slaves? Chitlins and all that FATTENING nonsense was given to them cos they were consider to be the lowest of the low yet they still continue the tradition of eating that garbage, why?

I would also like an anwer to 4Hi's question of BAs being condecending to Africans, you all now claim to be from the "motherland" thinking by wearing kente cloth you are one of us but that doesnt stop you from still making fun of us behind our backs by calling us "unciviklized" or "white washed"

Why are BAs so fond of COONERY? Movies and acts that rely on their obnoxious stereotypes instead of trying to strive for better? I would think a movie like Blood Diamond would be something a black american director wouyld be interested in making since you people like to claim that you care so much about Africa

This last one is to you Hero, why after having children havent you married this Igbo  "fiancee" of yours? Do you enjoy the whole "baby daddy" thing or what's the problem?
