Some of the comments on this threat are from people life experiences and opinions  Undecided.  I thank people like Hero for actually giving out some facts. 

@Chiogo, what the FREAK are you talking about?  You're just talking about the US?? Sweetie, I know a lot of Nigerians and Africans who've dated black and white and they don't treat any of them any better or worese than the next man.  It just all depends on your back ground and values. I don't know about Nigeria, but the stories I've heard from my Nigerian friends aren't really cool. It sounds as if you think you're better than us. Considering the past histories of both continents, neither of us has room to speak or judge.  Oh, and I'm not an African American. I wasn't born there and I've never been there. I was born here and my nationality is here. Therefore, I am an American, plan and simple.

I think people are writing things down without even understanding what they are saying.

I think I know what you are saying but it isn't just you but everyone that is a citizen of the United States is an American plain and simple. If you carry that passport, then that is your Nationality. If you are a citizen of Canada from anywhere in the world, then you are a Canadian and that is your Nationality. You culture may be something else but you Nationality is on that passport you carry unless you have dual citizenship (then you have two). African American is not a Nationality it speaks to a culture and that is it. We need to stop mixing Nationality (what is you citizenship) with words that describe culture.

@Chiogo

Now the idea that "Black" only relates to African Americans is nonsense and has no historical backing. Under the social construct of Race if you follow that, "Black" refers to anyone of "Sub-Saharan" ancestry. We all know that Race is based off junk science and "Black" means nothing. The word "Black" did not originate during the time of enslavement. It was created when Europeans came in contact with Africans thousands of years ago. They called them "Black" from Day 1. Now the way that "Black" is used today, came out of creation of RACE which will take us to Darwinism and the whole Enlightenment period. The whole concept that there are White, Yellow, Red, Brown, and "BLACK" races of people. European Scientist created this. We know there is only  one Race, the HUMAN Race and that was garbage.


Now as far as "Black" people being mental enslaved. I would agree and take it further that "Black" people around the world in all the Nation-States where you find them (Jamaica, Nigeria, Cuba, Brazil, US, UK, etc) are mentally enslaved. Racism (and the concept of "White" Supremacy) affected all "Black" people worldwide weather it was through Enslavement (Slave Mind) or Colonialism (Colonized Mind).

I always suspected that this Hero of a character was not "normal".  This just confirms my suspicions.  What is the relevance of your Pugilistic Sporting event to this thread? Undecided

If you want your person as some sort of "black" thing to be respected--you need to learn to respect people of other races.

Yes, am just talkin' about the US because that's what i noticed is becomin' a culture here. I don't know a lot of Nigerian dudes married to white women and i haven't heard of such a lot. when u say "us", whom are u referrin' to?? I really don't get that part. . . .  the last 3 lines of your post.


@Lazy, like i told you earlier, i did not make up that theory. It's not an idea but a theory made by an African American woman herself. So, the person who made it up did not do so in a discriminatory manner. About the word "black" originatin' from europeans, I don't know about that but you know Europeans were also in America, yes, they helped make America what it is. Most white americans are of European descent. That's why people say that the real white people are Europeans. Anywayz, that doesn't matter. Take a look at this, In an African country like Nigeria, are people referred to as blacks??No, Because most indigenes are "black" in color so it's pointless. Whether it was Europeans who came up with the word "black" or not is not my concern. In my perspective, I believe it was white people(even if not white americans) that started callin' dark-skinned people whom they colonized blacks hence the word. I never heard Nigerian people in Nigerian refer to each other as blacks.hope you get my point. I agree with Debra Dickinson's theory!!

And even those of them who date black women treat them like shit.

Not True. If anything most of the times, when a white male dates a black female, he tries TOO hard to keep her.

Funny, from what i know, they treat their women like queens  . . .
IMO, it's not that they don't find us attractive, i think it's more like who we are (I mean the 'strong black sistah') that intimidates them.  I have friends who date black women.  Hah! they let the women walk all over them.
Am not so much used to seeing the White man/Black woman relationship as much as the Black man/White woman

Exactly this is what I usually see esp in the North.

Hi
in response to the person who started this topic, all  i can say is men are men, in all colours and sizes. First of all i am married to a white man and have been for the past 3yrs, since we met i have never seen his colour. Anyway, you say you heard white men treat black women like shit, well i am sure some do, and some do not. Just like some black men treat women badly and some are fabulous. My husband does not particularly treat me any more special just because i am black, i know cause we watched a TV show together once discussing this issue and he said he just treats me as me, some times i am wonderful and other times i am a pain in the butt (so he said lol). We both treat each other with respect and he is a great husband(ok enough , puke lol)

Here in the UK its very common to have white and black together, its no real biggie, well it depends on what side of the river you are on lol. I have seen both sides of things through life experience, and the black guys i have been with were all lovely and i am still friends with all of them. I did not make a conscious decision to go ''with white'' a funny thing called love happened and he happened to be there. Cheesy

Finally don't you think sometimes women make a rod for their own backs ? its two ways, or two sides to every story, your side, his side and the truth is somewhere in between.

i don't think there's any point in generalising about these things. i have been married to a great guy for 1 and a half years who happens to be white. we met at school and have been together for 10 years now. we're best friends and he treats me with so much love and respect, i never have cause to doubt his feelings for me. oh and also our families get along fine, his mum is like a 2nd mum to me.
i think the point is that the race doesn't matter, it's the individuals that are important. you can have good and bad men and women from every race!!

I think as black men, you should bend over and kiss the feet of the African Woman.
She is glue that holds what semblence of society there is. She raises the children, keeps the house, cooks the food, teaches the skills, often brings in the money, makes sure that money isn't squandered on beer and cell phones, but buys the books and tablets and pens and pencils and makes sure her children get the best they can,
To many times , in too many countries I see the African man sitting around chatting with his mates and generally getting up to no good while the women bring in the crops, plant the seeds, haul the water,  buy the food,

Most respect to the African woman,

To the African man, you have a long way to go and when the opputunity presents itself to elect a woman to a position of authority, i strongly suggest you do so!

A British man is appealing against a conviction in Ghana for indecently assaulting a three-year-old girl.

Thomas Tichler, 57, a retired banker from Hertfordshire, was jailed for two years in February.

The charity Fair Trials International has disputed the medical evidence used to convict him and says the girl was too young to give evidence.

The appeal court, sitting in Accra, is reserving judgement on the case until later this year.

Medical evidence

The case stems from an invitation accepted last year by Tichler, who was in Ghana at the time volunteering for a charity.

He was invited to a local man's house, where he was left to play with the family's children.

When the family's three-year-old daughter went to the toilet, her mother found blood in the little girl's urine and her underwear.

Tichler was convicted of indecently assaulting the girl and causing her harm and sentenced to two years for each offence, to run concurrently.

His defence team says the blood could have been the result of innocent horseplay, as Tichler lifted the girl onto his shoulders.

It says the medical evidence presented by the prosecution could equally support its explanation of what happened.   

Defence lawyers argue the girl's testimony in court was an important factor in Tichler's conviction and are concerned that she may have been too young for her evidence to have been relied upon.

Joe Stone, a barrister at Doughty Street Chambers, has been advising the Tichler family on their appeal.

He said: "[Children] start speaking at two and being able to articulate with something as sensitive as this, there really is some concern as to whether the child understands what is being said."

Child's evidence

The Ghanaian legal system is based upon the English courts, which is a legacy of its colonial past.

When children give evidence in courts in England and Wales, the judge has to determine whether the child understands the questions put to them and whether the answers they give are comprehensible.

"That two-part competency test, which is standard and mandatory here didn't take place," Mr Stone said.

"I think the judge asked whether the child understood the importance of telling truth and lies but there was no further investigation into the child."

  My own view is that you've at least as much chance of a fair trial in Ghana as you would have in the UK

Craig Murray
Former UK diplomat
The London-based charity Fair Trials International has taken on Tichler's case.

The head of the legal team, Sabine Zanker, is worried about political interference.

She said: "This was hyped up by politicians, including the attorney general, who in Ghana is also the justice minister.

"When Tom was initially charged with a lesser offence, he went public and said it was very important to protect Ghanaian children from white paedophiles and he thought he should be charged with a much more serious offence."

'Fair hearing'

Craig Murray, a former diplomat who was deputy high commissioner to Ghana, says he does not know of a single incident involving a British national where there was reason to suspect they had not received a fair hearing.

"My own view is that you've at least as much chance of a fair trial in Ghana as you would have in the UK," he said.

Two of Mr Tichler's sons have been in Accra to see their father's appeal.

The eldest, James, insists his father is innocent.

"He's certainly never displayed any behaviour like what he's been accused of towards me or my brothers," he said.

"I don't think I'll accept that he's guilty unless he came and told me he was."

The attorney general of Ghana, Joe Ghartey, told the BBC that he could not comment directly on the case.

He said the country had a very independent judiciary and that any comments he made would not have made any difference to the outcome of the trial.

His team has been appealing for a longer prison sentence for Tichler, arguing that the circumstances of the case do not support the length of the sentence originally handed down by the judge.
