Why Do Caribbeans Think Their Situation Is Better Than Africa? by onila(f): 4:00am On Dec 25, 2016
undecided

just because they managed to be surrounded by nice blue water, they think they are better grin

even whites never make fun of the fact, I am from Africa

one skank from Bahamas asked do I like it there undecided

last time, I check Caribbean is not rich
if the Caribbean is so great, why are they rushing too come here also

as far as ur non white, you are trash to white people

it sucks you can't make fun of the fact caribbeans are in prison like the way we tease African Americans tongue

but l know calling them African descent will make them mad when they make me angry again

My anthropology professor always reminds the caribbeans in my class, that the caribbean was populated from slaves from Africa grin
when white people say it, it's okay to them but when Africa reminds them, they get angry

If you look at pics of home based Africans and home based Carribeans, the Carribeans look fresher

yeah, i think so too. I think it's because of the region where they are. And they're a quasi version of Black Americans.

Seriously what happened to the OP? She use to be opened mind now she is just as tribal as the rest of Nairaland. She complains about Caribbeans looking down on Africans(funny when Africans especially Nigerians ON HERE look down on many other black groups) while at the same time trying to throw African-American(ironically who are not even apart of the discussion) under the bus.

This is why I now only come on here for the beauty pics for my threads outside this thread. grin

African-Americans even with their economic apartheid situation in America still have a better quality of life than Africans from Africa and Caribbeans.

And as for this thread. There are SOME Jamaicans that may think they are better. But many Jamaicans and other Caribbeans are actually very pan-African and learn about Africa and Africans.

Onila, chai if that is your real pishure, I want to start paying dowry but the problem is that I don't have cash, Can I pay in instalment? direct debit. I should finish paying 5 to 6 years give or take the exchange rate. If I take you to my pastor and he tells me he saw a vision that you are a mammy water, I will tell him I already know, sir did you see anything else?

Just saying we AAs in America are GOING TO NEED Africa in the future. This is why I pray African countries like Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania, Kenya, and many others develop fast. Reason why I say this is because it would be useful for African-Americans to do business with Africans to cut out white Americans. Reason I say this is because when it comes to banks and getting loans, most blacks in America do not get loans and because of that they are not able to start businesses. Small steps of this already happened when a Ghanaian firm bailed out a black owned bank here in America. More stuff like that needs to happen. My sister currently lives in Ethiopia(where I am going) and she says many Ethiopians welcome AA business over Indian, Chinese and even whites.

I'm just saying while it is true America is developed and Africa may have some of its issues, I have heard that it is easier for AA entrepreneurs to make moves in Africa then the states. Heck see Ghana... But I definitely get what you're saying. AAs dont have to LIVE in Africa, but we should get our act together for business.

Never been to the U but i hear say naija babes dey fear Jammo babes. Those girls have no chill. I've watched their fights on youtube and i've never seen Nigerian girls fight like that before. between them and AA, i don't know which group is more violent. Nigerian girls are no where as violent as these two. Our unique selling point is GOSSIP.

Lol, naija girls arent scared of Jamaicans girls. Jamaicans girls and naija girls both have sassy, bad attitudes so they are a match for each other. Most black ppl are violent tbh.
Yrs ago the relationship btw Africans and Caribbeans was poor-we both looked down on each other- but has improved thanks to afrobeats for bringing African music/ culture on the forefront. Carribeans now listen to afrobeats and even wear African attire.

Black girls generally have bad sassy attitude but while some like the carribeans and African American are ready to get dirty, Nigerian girls generally don't want to goo physical. With what i'v seen with blac girls, the other side of the atlantic, i don't think Nigerian girls can stand them except those ones from the village. These people fight for a living. Every other the World Star Hip Hop is showing one fight or the other all over America but before you see girl fight in Nigeria, e go hard. Not to talk of a Nigerian girl challenging a Jammo to a physical bro. I just don't want to have to experience that.

I never said Jamaicans are not nice. I just feel lie they're the "In your face" kinda people.

It's funny that some jamaicans think they're not black considering that they have the closest culture to Africans among all black Non-Africa people.

Don't mind the children of slaves ...do you ,they have nothing going for them , instead of trying to talk smack on people who are above them in all facets of life, they should go and save Haiti . Africans came to the USA saw and conquered, we are actually the ones showing to the slaves that education and hard work pay off ..all they know is running after white men and whites women

yes, they are
they believe their way of life is the best
i just ignore some of the things they do because every person has their own trouble

u just reminded me of one of my jamaican housemate
he tells you to open the back kitchen door (even when it's cold undecided) , close the door leading to the room upstairs and put on the kitchen fan when cooking
just because he can't stand the smell of other peoples food
like seriously if ur living with other people, you have to tolerate
if u cant, get rich and rent a condo


the ewu does not even cook
hes girlfriend brings food for him
maybe when he starts cooking, he will know frustrating it is following his rules


they do stupid unnecessary things like that
pissing everyone in the house

i remember when my Jamaican friend told me, it's only jamaican girls that wash their panties immediately when after they their remove pant
that other races/cultures ain't clean like them
she claims especially african girls don't wash their panties immediately

apart from some of their madness, they can be helpful
i remember when a jamaican woman advised me to dress appropriately, that I should be another black girl prone to be judged or being used and dumped

but what's her business but i will just use her advice a little.

there are people u wanna hang with some time not all the time
