One of the tenets of White Supremacy is to divide and conquer and you will find a colonial mentality amongst many brothers and sisters in Africa. Many are very ignorant about America, its practices and American history and many of us (Native Blacks in America) are ignorant to the effects of colonialism in Africa and the effects of slavery and jim crow on Africans in America. Done intentionally to keep us at odds. People need to understand what happened to our psyches. However, I do see MORE of an effort on Black Americans in their efforts in reaching back, I have lately seen MORE efforts amongst other Black immigrants in America joining in on the issues too! We're slowly but surely getting it, many of us at least. When you come to America, it's a whhoollleee different beast family, whole different beast.

The issues in many African countries ties directly to White Supremacy. Dr. Frantz Fanon talks a lot about this actually

A common proverb amongst Whites about Blacks [globally] is that if you want to hide something from a Black person, put it in a book. Y'all need to READ. Youtube is free, look up information.

Much love y'all @ the sista who talked about the immigration and nationality act, don't take it personally, just understand we're dealing with damaged people. Par for the course my sista. Iwiyisi, big ups sista for standing your ground, much love.

itstpia100:
whites are a majority all over the world, not only in america.

the only place where blacks are a majority, is subsaharan africa.

unless you feel these stats are wrong?

Whites are the MINORITY worldwide. Blacks are NOT confined to Africa. Our presence is EVERYWHERE

meccuno:
The police officers were not whites....one asian and one mexican...

White Hispanic and a White Asian. When you sign up and do nothing to STOP the injustices that occur to Blacks you are part of the problem.

khia:
Crap!! You guys kill me with this poverty of blacks in America as if there isn't the black middle class, upper middle class and the rich.
You need a reality check. The bootyscratcher bull was made up by silly elementry kids (8 9 10) year olds and you are still whinning over something little kids do, some kids are mean to everyone, and by the way that is not a stereotype about africans, everyone does it.

Really though, no one says that anymore, in fact there is more awareness and embracement. Whites use lies about both Blacks in America and in Africa, the Caribbean and Latin countries to divide and conquer. When you're stripped of your history and fed images/info it tends to have an effect.

SMH, Jesus!!!!! STOP TRUSTING THESE PEOPLE!!! They want us wiped OFF the planet. This man is for POPULATION CONTROL. STUDY WHITE SUPREMACY and KICK THE DAMN CHINESE OUT!! They are the new colonists, SMH. ONLY 5 WHITE RHINOS, 120,000+ ELEPHANTS!!!! All any of these ppl want are the RESOURCES; they care nothing about us as a people!!

That land will no longer be Black African LAND if it continues the way in which it's going!! You will look up and it will ALL be controlled by NON BLACKS!

RaptorX:
The average African love oyinbo too much to listen to these your advice, coupled with the absolutely corrupt system, the continent is a sitting duck. A white doctor being interviewed on the Sean Hannity show in the US, said the virus was created before he caught himself and said he means the guy who "discovered" the virus in 1976 lol.

SMH, I don't understand tbh. I mean I know colonialism wasn't too long ago, but DAMN this level of White worship is so sad!!!!!!!!!

If you're interested, here's a book (PDF/Download) talking about AIDS and Ebola as an emerging virus/bio weapon.

Feel free to pass along: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwaa77MtaKI5M3JxSklPcVZZeFU/view?usp=sharing

I've also included an e-book regarding the U.S. Govt putting drugs and guns in Black communities in L.A. to further political gains and the prison industrial complex:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwaa77MtaKI5NllNOEtOMHdoMGM/view?usp=sharing

If you're interested, here's a good video on [b]African Servitude vs. European slavery. [/b]Whites love to throw "Africans sold Africans..." to try and remove their part, so here's a really good video that debunks it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBnOPebyoJU

Ebola was engineered to target blacks, that's why the cure would've made him worse. It wasn't meant for us. Just like AIDS was a bio weapon, as this is too. We keep trynna tell y'all to not trust Whites or any non black and beware of sellouts. Funny how west Africa is the same region that's becoming a threat and it's the same region that's now being attacked. This is no accident. This is also why the AGOA trade, Africom and the China man are all trynna carve Africa up again.

Learn how White Supremacy functions and you'll be able to protect yourself against these ppl. Mugabe has the right mindset.



This is also why they don't want Africa to move ahead with Pan-Africanism, too great of a threat, which is why they threaten you, stand firm my folks!

Technically, what he spoke is correct in Black English. Which is a dialect/language that contains African sentence structure on top of English variant use.

The only people concerned with so called proper English are people who seek validation from Whites. There is no one way to speak English, as it is spoken differently everywhere.

If you haven't studied Black English or AAVE, you'll continue to display your ignorance.

For instance: You'll find that a common replacement amongst all Africans (whether in the diaspora or from the continent) of the *th* sound.

So, you'll have Black Jamaicans, Black Americans, Blacks from Africa etc say *dis* or *dat* or they'll say *fadda* for *father*

Learn more about something before trying to judge a situation you're not familiar with.

A few good books are:
Talkin' that Talk by Dr. Geneva Smitherman
Articulate While Black by Dr. Smitherman
African-American English: Structure, History and Use by Dr. John Rickford
Spoken Soul: The Story of Black English by Dr. Rickford

Lots of books and videos on this

If you can't get these books as of yet, you can start here:

EbolaParasite: Non black troll? You got jokes. E b like say you don dey mara. How's that for a non black folk like myself. You are RACIST. End of

If you're really Black I suppose that makes it even worse. Pick up a few books and travel more. A lot of Africans (not all) only understand their locality. I find some to be very ignorant about history within Africa and outside of Africa and perpetuate a lot of propaganda/inaccuracy about Blacks in America (American Africans or African in America). Much can be said about some of us in the diaspora (the divide and conquer has done what it is supposed to do), we do the same, no escaping here. What I will focus on is continuing to build with ppl who understand and who Pan-African unity. I do not do brainwashed so called Blacks.

Good day.

EbolaParasite: With your tone, i'd say you are textbook description for a RACIST.
Remember when i said 50% of the members on this forum are not based in Nigeria? A lot of the people you are replying and quoting actually live in America so do not think you are telling anyone anything new.

I never stated all members were based in Nigeria. And for the ones who live in America, none of what you've stated negates what I've mentioned. You've all ready outed yourself as a non Black troll.

You all usually throw the word *racist* around, not knowing what it actually means.

khiaa: Where have you seen black on black crime, the movies? lol you mutants are hilarious.

You know the deal eh? lol

anonymous6: Ferguson had nothing to do with civil rights. Mike brown after stealing from a convenient store(which Wilson didn't stop him for) and later was walking in the middle of the road, and was complained about by other black American witnesses when Wilson got on the scene. Wilson was a trigger happy cop and mike brown feel for the trap by walking in the middle of the road and then resisting arrest which lead to Wilson taking it to another level. Witnesses, who most were black american also said mike brown wasn't entirely innocent even though Wilson wasn't entirely innocent either. This has nothing to do with the civil rights movement that made oprah and president Obama today. I was born and raised in America and get racism and discrimination which I experienced from both white Americans and black Americans. So don't preach anything to me about this case, I already said before trayvon Martin rights were not given cause of racial profiling of a trigger happy fool but not with mike brown based on what has been said by the media so far.

When it comes to the other Nigerians being pompous ingrates, that's your opinion, I don't care(after all I never insulted african Americans on this thread on nairaland)and me being born and raised in this country I have a right to my opinion without being insulted and forced to your thinking(which is what your doing). I have every right to be in America, if you feel so strongly about this then maybe you should join the protesting in ferguson.

I do help in my way, I have given money and goods through Nigerian charities that they send straight to the poor in Nigeria. One of them is black girls ignite Africa, I have seen the evidence I have done. So don't you dare preach to me again on what I should or should not do on a Nigerian forum.

Think you need to preach to the Nigerians that act or tell black Americans they are better, I never said that. So take that topic to someone who cares or someone who actually said that.

So keep your arrogant and rude comments to yourself. I'm only speaking from a Nigerian American who lives in United States of America

90% of your information regarding the Ferguson case is inaccurate.

tonychristopher: oh i doubt, but been dark doesnt make us brother, w still have dark abos in australian and india so ...what do they want

This is where a lot of us miss it. And those who have your mindset will find out the hard way.

anonymous6: I'm benefiting from the struggles of the civil rights movement from Martin Luther king and other civil rights activist; and what they struggled for has been accomplished for not only African americans but for all blacks and other non-blacks and non-whites who are American or immigrants. Ferguson has nothing to do with the civil rights movement struggle, so my response has nothing to do with a ingrate. I never said any culture is remarkably better, and as a american born Nigerian I stay with my opinion. I believe in Economic unity amongst African nations but forcing a ideology or mentality that you, the OP, and a few other Nigerians and other Africans believe with most African americans on Nigerians on a Nigerian forum that don't believe in that is wrong.

I need to address this. You're benefitting from struggles BEFORE Martin Luther, that's one. 2.) That struggle was solely for Blacks, no one else, others now benefit whereas we do not and there is still a struggle. My response is greatly condensed, however you need to seriously study the history in this country. 3.) Ferguson is a *tipping* point; this has been going on for hundreds of years with NO accountability. I can tell you right now what will happen; he will get off.

Keep dreaming and when you wake up from that dream, DO NOT come to us. You have been warned.

EbolaParasite: How about you take a trip to west africa and we'll find out
Sitting in the comfort of your "wherever" typing racist propaganda. Screaming black this black that. What have you done to help the Ebola problem in Africa............nothing..............so why should Africans be bothered about your plight?

West Africa is a region, it'd be quite hard to find you. Additionally, I've been several times, next...

BadBoy25: is that all you can say? if you want to behave that way ,then i'm just going to be pissed and even become anti africa .

It's all I need to say. I mean I don't have anything to say if you're this inept. Most Whites are.

BadBoy25: if black people get a piece of land and start an all black country ,do you think it will be perfect with no police harassment ?
the only thing that infuriates me is the blame game. why does everything have to be racist? white cops kill white people,black cops also shoot black people . below is an example of a white man killed by a white cop. this would have been a riot if he had been black .
it pisses me off even more if you think i'm white impersonating black or uncle tom. why do black people always have to wallow in self pity. the guy clearly was on the wrong .

I am not surprised at your inability to properly analyze and critically think.

all4naija: Oh, shut the f**k up, you i d i o t! Walking at the middle of the road is. That's before he ran away from the cop who shot him. Stealing cigarette is another petty thing that can go a long way to tarnish the image of the black people in that community. You are just one ornery f**k. You f**king f**k!

What are you? A douche-bag and blockhead! Calling me a self-hater proves you are one of those criminals messing up black community. You keep fooling the people with your disturbing behavior. I am somebody who is asking for better and organized life for the black people like Martin Lurther King Junior did. There is nothing you have been able to show here that provides any solution to this kind of troubles in AA community than complain all through. You don't have a brain, lady!

1.) You don't have the facts

2.) He didn't steal the CIGARS; he paid for them, however THAT isn't related to THIS.

3.) When you're not being arrested (which he wasn't), you have the right to defend yourself against the cop

4.) The officer yelled at the two boys with disrespect and cursed at them. More than likely they complied, but let off their anger

5.) He gets upsets, swoops back around to where he is so close to them that when he opens the car door it bounces back off them onto him

6.) He grabbed Mike to try and pull him into the car (illegal)

7.) Mike resisted (he was not under arrest)

8.) No scuffle, Mike was just trying to pull away. No fight for the gun either (No defensive wounds on Mike's hands or body, no gun powder residue)

9. Cop fires

10.) Mike runs

11.) Cop continues to fire as Mike runs, shoots towards him, MISSES a few, but perhaps grazes him

12.) Mike turns around, hands up in the air to surrender, begins to kneel

13.) cop continues to fire while he approaches him, explains the shot to the apex of the head and to the face and the inner arms

Cold blooded. So, shut the hell up and keep your ignorant stupidity to yourself.

Fulaman198: Did you see the knife in the video? Unless I'm blind

No need to kill him though. What you don't understand is that there is a graduated scale of force that the police have to follow; it's called the force continuum. They reserve the deadliest just for Blacks.

Him wielding a small pocket knife is not something to be killed over. He also was mentally ill and his mother had died that day.

They apprehend Whites without killing them. These same Whites can literally kill dozens of people and be apprehended with no DEATH. They are a danger to themselves, the people around them and the police, but they are never given the deadliest ring along the continuum.

This is what they did to an old woman, unnecessary:

Fulaman198: You sound like an Ebola Parasite yourself

lol

khiaa: I don't live in your ghetto trailer parks thats for whites only. It's good if you preach to your white people and tell them to get off their lazy azzes and get an education and to stop robbing, killing, raping women, children and men. I doubt if they will listen, they are really kind of re,tarded like you. Well the apple don't fall far from the tree.

I figured that thing was a troll.

I also think that Ebola thing is one too lol.

anonymous6: As I said this is a american issue and they can handle it by themselves. Many people around the world spoke about the Trayvon issue from Australia to South Africa(some agreed with Zimmerman & some with Trayvon) but didn't involve themselves in it, just because all countries plus Nigeria is speaking about this is irrelevant, after all they were all speaking about "Bring back our girls" but that still doesn't mean it's their problem. Nigeria still has their problems(as a non-western country) and this is not one of them. I'm a American born Nigerian and I feel Nigerians should concentrate on Boko Haram and put their energy on National issue's not Ferguson. The Nigerians I'm around are talking about Boko Haram & The Ebola outbreak not the Ferguson fiasco(at least not more then a few mins). Nobody deserves to get shot but Nigeria is going through their own and not going in African american forums demanding they fight for them.
I don't think it's selfish. Ferguson is not Nigeria's Problem.

Blows over your head, good day.

anonymous6: This is a American issue, NOT a african issue in the end of the day. Nigerians have their own problems and it is wrong for you to force a issue, that is not a issue affecting Nigeria. You need to put your energy on Boko Haram, Nepa and etc NOT Ferguson, it's sad though but Nigeria has national issues already.

It would go a long way with us if someone would speak up about the situation. After all, we supported Bring our Girls back, had protests/rallies etc. It's called support. Egypt, China, Germany etc have spoken out about this. It's selfish and unappreciative imo to want support and then not give it. These places all have national issues and they spoke up.

birdman: How do you know they aren't already? Ever since the trayvon martin incident, folk have been preparing at a grassroots level. Remember that Ferguson is a low working class neighborhood, meaning they live paycheck to paycheck. Disrupt a few days of work, arrest a couple and this protest should be over. But it isnt. Major news outlets are not carrying it, but there are grassroots organzations lining up lawyers and money to push this case. Even the FG knows the genie is out of the bottle and has called for the national guard. The reason you arent hearing more of the grassroots mobilization is no one wants blacks in dozens of other small towns to start getting ideas.



Why not do both? Remember the pressure black americans and nigerians applied to bring apartheid down? Even with Reagan, Cheney etc fighting all the way. some africans may be deceiving themselves, but the truth is no one has the luxury of sitting on the fence on important issues like this. If you do not choose a side, you are on the oppressor's side by default.

Not worth it, many of these people are very ignorant and judgmental and know nothing about the history of America. They have a Eurocentric mindset, not worth it. Deal with people who aren't like this. Unfortunately, they only begin to understand things when they come to America and experience it for themselves. Many of them are beyond ignorant and don't understand White Supremacy. Leave these ppl alone and focus on the ppl who understand. We can't work with brainwashed ppl. They usually find out later.

all4naija: Nonsense! You don't sound American to me. For your own information, my mother is an American and don't have anything you can tell me about ghetto project. You need to work your a s s better than you do now to make more money from your gun violence and other related crimes. Please, I don't have time reading your insolent behavior on the notion that I don't know anything about America whereas you look like somebody who doesn't know a tad about that country.

It is time you read up and stop bragging in a third-world country online forum. You are beginning to look like a gangster in your approach to this discussion because you haven't been able to make sense in any of your arguments.

Whether you love South Africans and East Africans is none of my concern but trying to defend people in their dubious means of always blaming everything on history is a bad idea. It is not fair in almost all ramification. Using such means by the blacks to loot in the community is not helping the people. That is the same mentality black South Africans exhibit in their country criminalizing every avenue to developed the society. Of what good is that to any working society? You are one annoying stubborn individual who lacks common sense. Sorry that I have to say that to you. You really need education.

Pan-Africanism is a racist notion by black people. It hasn't been able to uplift black society into progress rather contributed to the regression in the African society. We are yet to see the advancement Pan-Africanism has brought to the continent. This is another statement coming from you. I don't think you do seat down and think deeply.

...

EbolaParasite: Firstly, i don't care if you are a woman or man. Doesn't change anything. Don't let that get into your head. This is an anonymous forum.
Secondly, we do not need your help here so you can shove your fake millions up your "you know what". By the way, stop deceiving yourself. You do not make millions. We do not need people like you in Africa. You need us more than we need you. DO yourself a favour and get on a plane and visit AFRICA. That alone should be good for you. We do not need your money. YOU DO NOT COUNT/MATTER. The whites that you call SUPREMIST are doing so much for AFRICA than YOU will ever do in your lifetime. The real MILLIONAIRES and BILLIONAIRES like the BILL and MELINDA Foundation are doing just what we need from humanitarians so you can keep your SOCIAL SECURITY cheques.

You keep talking about how "YOU don't get along with NIGERIANS" because of this and that. Hey woman, get this unto your head : WE DON"T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU EITHER. We get VISAS to come to the STATES to come SPEND money. That's how we ball. Yeah we have poverty in Nigeria, but at the same time we BALL. It's in your best interest to "get with us" and not the other way round.

NEWSFLASH, you are ignorant and uneducated. You ask people to read yet you don't. You stated that we are brainwashed by white supremists yet you use the same propaganda spread by whites. What do you mean by "you fools sold us" - You are dumb, isn't that the same false story being spread by the so-called white supremists you are castigating? Did you forget to read the part when the WHITE SLAVE owners FORCEFULLY took SLAVES until they realized they were loosing able bodied SLAVES through fighting and then FORCED the African leaders to SELL their own?
It was either SELL or be conquered you illiterate. How's that for some history.

I am 100% certain you don't make millions. People who do do not brag. Also, your ignorance did not let you realize that at least 50% of the Nigerians who visit this site are not even based in Nigeria so do no think you are special or have anything over us. We don't give a Bleep about you. You have the nerve to come to a Nigerian forum and rain insults. You food-stamp, social security cheque menace. You are not wanted by the society you live in and rather than try to be friendly with us, you think you are superior in some ways. Ma'am puleease. WE DON"T NEED YOU.
When it is all said and done, we have a place to run to called HOME. AFRICA. THE MOTHERLAND. Can't say the same for you because WE WILL NOT ACCEPT PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO HAVE CHOSEN TO DISRESPECT US. You can keep your AMERICA. In 10-20 years when AMERICA"S development plateaus and AFRICA starts seeing real big time development and becomes a developed nation, please do not RUN here when you social security checks finish. WE WILL TURN YOU BACK. We will only accept HUMBLE people who actually care.

I hope you read all of this

Not bragging, you don't listen brotha damn lol. I can imagine how your relationships go, yikes. I'm not trying to be hard on you or mean to you, but I am trying to get you to understand and it's highly frustrating when I deal with people who make judgement calls on historical patterns they don't really understand and dismiss the effects and continued patterns of systematic oppression as some abstract concept that doesn't exist. That's highly frustrating and makes ppl not want to deal with you. This is blockage!!

No, I'm well aware of the complexity of what happened during slavery (I was upset, so forgive me for that). However if you had taken the time to read my other post, you would've seen that I mentioned the complexity of slavery, but you didn't read it. There were about 2 tribes that WILLINGLY sold us with no hesitation, but again even in that there is some complexity. 7 in total I believe were a part of the holocaust. 5 were forced, but I don't hold any grudges. It is what it is, but the level of disrespect on your end is why many of us in America take issue with a lot of Nigerians (not all obviously).[/i] The motherland is our home as well, nice try, that won't work on me. You don't tell me what I am, who I am and where I belong. You are not the authoritative figure and you don't speak for Africa nor me lol. We're welcomed with open arms by many. Divide and Conquer--is what they want You may have pissed me off, but I still got love for you and no I don't have any issues with people who understand or take time to understand and respect each other's histories and plights and to know that we're in this fight together. We are all we have.

I never stated whether the ppl who visit the site are based in Nigeria, nor did I indicate this, so idk where this came from.

Let's be real all of us wherever we are need help. Black people where we are, collectively need help. Our positions are the same and it's done purposely. If we're going to become the powerhouses that we once were, we will need each other. So yes, Africa needs our help, no shame in saying this. I understand how Africa became the way it is.

The problems with Africa are multifaceted and have to do with colonialism, slavery, corrupt leadership (this is common in many places outside of Africa) and you all's tendency to trust the Chinese and Whites. That continent is underway to be sieged again by Whites and now by the Chinese, because the govts in many cases do not understand how White Supremacy functions and many brothers and sisters in Africa don't either. You've got [i]Africom, Agenda 21, European allies (former colonists) and the Chinese. Too trusting of others, I think what needs to happen is that you all need to begin to intra-trade, that way you can cut the IMF and other predatory lending practices disguised as AID. This AGOA trade with the USA, BAD decision, smh, but it's not being seen for what it is. USA wants its hand in the pot now. Everybody wants a slice of Africa. Kick the non Blacks out, take control of the mining/oil industry etc, don't let these ppl control the land. WE determine how things go.

Agenda 21 is BAAADDDDD; they will use ecological reasons to *land-grab* and control the areas you can go into, what you can build, plant etc. It's horrible. If you haven't read the book " Behind The Green Mask"[b][/b] take a look at it.

Trust me, all this so called investment is not for Africa. These people don't do anything without a way to control things, never never never. Pan-Africanism really is the only solution. You cannot trust these ppl; they do not have our best interests. What I've begun to do in America is begin to strageize taking back our communities in America where we as Blacks own, control, produce and distribute everything within the our communities, like we used to. This protects us from racism because we're not dependent upon outsiders for our needs. Gentrification in America is huge right now, a lot of displacement of Blacks from their homes and businesses. People can't find jobs; it's bad. So our/my company is putting into practice what we used to do when we were forced to be segregated. We're starting with farm land, CLTS or Community Land Trusts etc, we're still mapping things out. We're going to work this across the nation in America and then fan it out to the motherland and other Black countries. We ain't playing!! There's a huge conference coming up soon in America (I can't say because it has to be done in secret, White ppl like to destroy) that will change the map. There's a Pan-African conference in Azania that I'll be attending as well, so we're kicking up dust, a lot of us over here. We've strategies for business districts, and stock exchange programs between American Africans and the Motherland. We're on it and I'm excited.

Of course, most certainly I want Africa to rise, that's apart of my goal to help. I wouldn't skip over Nigeria, you were just pissing me off. In fact, many of us in America want to see Africa rise, believe it or not, we care. It's just I think you have to be open enough to not dismiss our issues, come correct and you'll be straight because if you don't you'll get set straight and we won't deal with you and if some ignorant negro comes ill at you, set him straight, if he/she wants to remain ignorant, let them, but don't be the same way. We have to meet each other half way.

Look, we good or what? All we ask is that you take the time to understand ok? Don't dismiss what we've been dealing with 300+ years in this country up until now as something that no longer has an effect and it's in our minds (systematic oppression). Don't do that, you'll instantly close us off. Just try to understand,do that, and we will get along better. We have so much more in common than we think! ok?

Meet each other half way, that's it, meet us halfway. I mean look Wale we love, K'Naan we love, Akon we love, Ethiopians we're good with, Nigerians I'm good with out here, Ghanaians, South Africans when I go visit, Black Australians and Black Melanesians. We're folks who took the time to understand each other, so don't be afraid we ain't gonna bite lol Sure, you will have ignorant ppl all around and ppl who hate themselves, who in turn WILL hate being associated with Africa, just takes time. These are ppl who are brainwashed by White Supremacy, but there's nothing that can be done. They have to get that wake up call and a lot of it stems from the idea that we don't like each other. I'm telling you this is a huge blocker because it makes you defensive and so you both have these walls up.

I only said I was a woman because you mentioned I was male lol.

Much love

Garvey1: Any human relationship could be worked out by Africans and whites in the US in 500 years.The whites have no intention of working out any honorable relationships with Black people.They have this mentality that they should be on top all anywhere they go in the world.Just look at their history in relationship to other races in the world.Everywhere they go they oppress the other races.The issue in the US is that blacks need equity and parity.Were ever Black people make up the majority of the population we should control the economics and body politics of our community.That is not the case in many Black communities in America.Blacks only control .02% of the US economy but are the majority in the penal system.Poor Education,lack of opportunities, lack of political representation all contribute to the conditions that Blacks face in the US.The situation in Ferguson Mo. is a result of all these underlying conditions in the community.Blacks are just fed up and tired of the prevailing conditions and no longer willing to take it anymore.Africans need unity worldwide to combat these conditions.We need organization to the point that the whole Black world responds when they commit these acts against Black people.

Yes, this is correct, but you'll have thick skulled people on this site and trolls who will not get this.

These types of incidents are very common amongst Blacks; we're targeted. I hope this sheds some light

EbolaParasite: Ignorance is a disease. I was also talking in dollars and yes you probably do not make up to that. If you actually make what you claim, you won't be posting all the ignorant nonsense that you are posting here. Trust me, nigerians are very enlightened. Do not come here with all that i make this i make that. You can go to BET for that nonsense. We don't give a damn about all that on here. Probably lives on social security cheques forming rich man here. "Make more in one week than somebody will make in 10 years my foot". So assuming the person in question makes 5000 dollars a year, which by the way is unlikely, probably way more than that. It means you make somewhere around or above 50,000 dollars a week. Quit smoking cocaine ok!!

Hope you are seriously not using the CNN - live on 1$ a day to judge nigerians. You better get on a plane and come see how we roll here. Ignoramus

I agree ignorance is a disease and unfortunately it seems terminal for you.

No, you're not enlightened, not in the least. Your problem is that you're an arrogant fool, confident in your own ignorance. You don't understand the complexity of anything that I've mentioned, which is why you cannot grasp it.

With education comes money, that's why I mentioned it. I usually don't mention anything about my earnings because I am private.

The mere fact that you'd think I'd use the 1 dollar a day average is a testament to your arrogance (false sense of self, usually predicated upon insecurity) AND non-enlightenment. Everyone knows the American dollar is valued at a higher conversion rate, so when I said think in American dollars that's exactly what I meant. I make millions per year. You better pray that your attitude doesn't run off ppl like me who actually want to help my folks in Africa, we may just skip over Nigeria because many of you are arrogant and refuse to understand our issues because you *think* you have the correct information, when you do not. You fools sell us and then have the nerve to have an issue with us lol. GTFOHWTBS

I vehemently detest willful ignorance. PPL like you imo are a lost cause and I deem as traitors because all you do is uphold White Supremacy. I will move on and help my ppl that want to be helped.

I'm a woman by the way.

EbolaParasite: Look at this uneducated negro. Bragging about your earnings shows you went to school but didnt get an education. Typical AA. Do you know how much the person you replied makes? Self hating ignorant bitter black man you are. There are tonnes of wealthy Nigerians who visit this forum so do not think your meager 60-100k salary is anything to write home about. THE RICHEST BLACK MAN ON EARTH IS NIGERIAN so shut it with your ignorant self

Who says I make 100k? When I say I make more in one week than you'll ever see in 10 years, think in American dollars.

You should really stop the trolling. It's not a good look.

BadBoy25: if there are no jobs he should have gone on welfare ,and there are numerous food and clothing banks . stop giving dumb excuses. you are simply annoying.
you should be assassinated ,you are not good for black people . your socialist welfare mentality will keep black people down forever and ever. and know black people love free stuff. keep voting democrats and stay down forever and ever.

Then you'd be complaining about welfare lol like you all ready are.

EbolaParasite: Your are just another bitter black person who thinks white people are trying to hold you back. The only person suppressing you is YOU. Quit giving excuses. Cops kill people from other races everyday too. Newsflash, u are not special. Africans, Indians, Mexicans, Asians go through the same thing and they still strive for success and dont just keep saying "someone is out to get them".
Yes slavery, happened. Its bn 400 or so years. Get over it already. The same whites you claim are trying to put you down are also doing missionary work all over the world. There is nothing special about you. It doesnt benefit America to hold you back. Its not like you would take all the success back to Africa.

Try again, nope all these other groups do not go through what we go through. LOL @ missionary work LMMFAO. You've got to be high to bring that up as something positive lol.

SMH @ the bolded, you really are clueless. Do you know me? Exactly, so don't speculate about what I would and wouldn't do. It would behoove you to re-read some of my comments where I actually stated that that is exactly what we're planning.

all4naija: All I can tell you is to get education because you look like somebody who lacks fundamental principle to understand what I am talking about. You are too forward with ghetto's idea.
Thank you.

Try again, I make more in 1 week than you'll ever see in 10 years. I am not someone that lacks education. What I do lack is arrogance and ignorance. This is why many ppl don't like Nigerians. I suggest you read the info I've given and the picture will become clearer. You don't get it and the only Africans who really get it are the ones who have grown up in America or actually take the time to understand. This is why we gel a lot with South Africans and East Africans because they *get it.* West Africans who understand Pan-Africanism also get it as do Central Africans and many Black North Africans who understand Pan-Africanism. Those who don't are brainwashed tools that I don't have time for, so when the caca hits the fan, don't say you were not warned.
