If you've dated an Black-American (Akata) how was you experience? Good or Bad? How did it differ from dating a fellow Naija?

Re: Have You Ever Dated A Black-american? by sistawoman: 8:18pm On Jan 05, 2009
What about non-akata blacks?

How about just regular black americans?

Or do all Nigerians believe that all black americans are Akatas?

yes, those who so rudely use the term Akata do refer to ALL of us as Akatas.

No now, not rudely. It's just a word used by Nigerians to describe you people.
White people we call them oyinbo oyinbo.
And we also have the chinkos, and so forth.

Are you a Black-American? Most of us do not like to be referred to as Akata-- the history behind the use of the word is very negative, though today many Nigerians and other Africans use it without truly knowing the history behind the word.

So has dating one been different in any significant way from dating a fellow Naija girl?
Re: Have You Ever Dated A Black-american? by Outstrip(f): 4:00am On Jan 06, 2009
Dated african americans. My husband was the first nigerian I dated. My first boyfriend cheated and I was kind of glad because I was finally free. The second one was almost perfect and treated me like a queen but we had to part ways. There are good african american men just like there are good african men. You just have to look really hard to find the good african ones grin grin grin grin

Akata is very much the same as saying Nigger.

It is offensive and should not be used.

Nigerians call black people that are not Niggers do-do (sp).

Ask me how I know.

Well I am Black and I was born in America. But I don't consider myself to be no American. I am 50% Igbo-Nigerian, about 30% "American" Negro, and about 20% Blackfoot Indian.

Like Malcolm X said though:
"I am not a democrat. I am not a republican. In fact, I am not even an American, and I got sense enough to know it!"
