All Black People Descended From Africa #2

Read the bottom :o :o

It warms my heart that sisters like you still abound in the US.  I used to be amazed at the rate some African Americans and Caribbeans attempt to distance themselves from Africa.  Regardless of your nationality, every blackman is of African descent.  Lets strive to keep African history alive for future generations around the world, because the problem remains ignorance of the truth.

Thank you my brother, thank you so much,   

I would like to say that it is always good to recieve such a compliment from the brothers in the jungle

I hope you are being good to the sisters, we sure do need you, we really do.

Thanks again.

In America, when black people first meet each other they don't know each others names. What they do know is by looking at each other they are both black and what that more than likely means is they share ancestors somewhere down the blood line (Roots) and that means that we are all a family.

If the black person is a woman she would be a sister and if the other black person is a man he would be a brother. After learning the names of each other the "brother and sister" thing slowly but surely is alleviated, now we call each other by our first name name. If you don't know someone before you just met them, for blacks in America the respectful thing is to call them a sister or a brother, this lets them know that you are welcoming them and embracing, like famlies do.

Do you now understand?

Which Africans? I'm Nigerian and i can assure you i never heard anyone call the other "brotha" or "sista" neither did i use such a term. It seems to be very prevalent here that was why i asked, you did not have to answer if you had nothing to say!

@ sista
thanks for the explanation.

@ Sista,

thanks you for your thread, may God bless you my Sister, and to every every African American's that deceive themselves that they are mixed with many bloods, that they are not really 100% African, they should all eat this, every African American I 've ever seen has an inprint of which African country they are from and even the tribe they are from on there face, believe me is visible.

Word sista word! But i know some guys around my place that doesn't even want to have anything doing with their root  . The last time we did chat together, i told them that they are totally lost imagine that!

Infact you are rude and ignorant, and you are not worth to be answered, if you claim that you live in Nigeria and you 've never hard anybody calling each other brother or sister, then the Nigeria you live in, is in the outer space, save us some space please I 've seen many of your posts, and I don't remember you as an intelligent dude.

Phew! so much hot air, i wonder why you are the one losing your temper over a comment made to someone else. At least youve read a few of my posts, i can't remember seeing any of urs. And by "intelligence" do you mean to refer to your confused and insultive remarks?

As for my having lived in nigeria or hearing the brotha sista scenario, sorry maybe it was you who lived in outer space, that's if you ever lived there at all.

please do me a favor, i hate to take on anyone this late in the day, except for once i don't remember refering to you directly in any of my posts so please stay out of my existence!

Its stupid souls like 9to5 that ruin albeit decent posts, first with their hopeless grammer and their bellicose attitude. What was wrong in my first question? Did i address the second question to you or sista? Why are you the one responding to the statement i made to sista? Now with all these, can you honestly look me in the eye and say you are not a fool?

Yes my brotha some of them are lost but we can not tell them they are lost and then have nothing else to do with them. We have to show them they are lost and then we have to show them they do not have to stay lost.
 Now, the white man put a huge amount of fear into us and some of us had the strength to have no fear but the ones who do fear, We have to show them the way.

I am not saying we have to donate our lives to helping them because if someone does not want help, they can not receive help. What we have to do at least is plant the seed, give them something to think about because even if they don't absorb what you share with them today, someday they will and we have to believe that, have faith in it.

Our Ancestors did not bring us all this way, to let us fail our self.

Yeah very Usuall of davidylan, you will never contribute anything positive, you will always come up with some baseless argument moron.

If i remember clearly, you threw the first salvo for which i was prepared to defend myself. It's no point detailing the foul words you alone have used on this thread. No point, it goes to show the character and type of people who hide behind the anonymity that the internet provides to bandy words they know nothing about.
Am i to take your tepid and uninformative posts as "positive contribution"? At 190 posts to date, you sure have made a whole lot of positive contribution, just so funny i have never come across any of them!
Unlike you, i will not descend to the level of name calling until,

not everybody refers to other black peeps that way. i don't and that don't mean i ain't blk

Daviddylan you wrote:

Sista,

a, i am wondering how not calling my mom, friends, cousins or brothers "brotha or sista" is automatically equivalent to NOT behaving like a "real African man"?

b. I would like to know how asking a simple question translates to "looking for a verbal fight". Methinks a verbal fight simply means not agreeing to your post which is very unfortunate! I'm sure you would not have taken it lightly if i had come here calling you rude and ignorant for voicing your oppinions.


Sistas response to that:

You know your direct family members, of course you would not address them as such. You chose to overlook my specifically saying that when black people first meet, they use the brother and sister term, you overlooked that point. One can construde that as, you did that because you wanted to make trouble. Your response to my explanation clearly shows that.

I was being peaceful minding my own business when you, like you said (bumped in) For some reason I can't get the page the quote was on but you asked the question as to why do particularly American blacks use the terms brother and sister? After I gave you an explanation you debated my explanation when it was not debatable. You asked a rhetorical question which shows you really didn't want an answer, you just wanted to be able to say that my response was bogus.

You showed no respect when you did that. Ninetofive took notice to that quickly and he called you on it. I saw what you were doing but I am a female so I let it go. I am not loaded with testosterone like you two men are and that is why you and him are going at it. You don't have to agree with anything I have posted. I don't care for your agreeance. But, you don't have to disrespect to show that you don't agree, that is what a child does.

DavidDylan and Damy

No one said that if you did not use "brother" and "sister" to other blacks you just met that you are not black. If you are black you will always be black, you don't have to say certain things in order to stay that way.



This whole thing has gotten out of hand. Both of you should go back and reread the thread, you overlooked a lot or you didn't look at all. That is all I have to say.

What I meant by a Real African was Traditionally African man, black man takes care of the women and the children first. Whenever a black man diplays disrespect to woman and children he is not adhering to the ways of our ancestors, the traditions of our ancestors. I hope you don't misconstrued what I just said.
