CultureRe: The Different Races In Africa by Eri8: 1:36am On Oct 11, 2013
It's funny how you only see somalis claiming their not black, then add in eritreans and ethiopians in there. All habeshas I know (eritreans and ethiopians) claim to be black. If dont want to be black, fine, but don't add other nationalities into your commentary as you are only representing somalis, not eritreans and ethiopians.

Semira! Finally I have another habesha on here
CultureRe: Do You Consider Somalis As Black? by Eri8: 4:55am On Jul 13, 2013
Bruh how are y'all still on this dang topic lol. People view somalis as black all around the world. Get over it. The only reason they some similarities to the Middle East is because of their location, their like a mile away form the Middle East so it's obvious mixing and stuff like that will happen over time.

Is their anybody supporting ethiopia on building the dam?

Do countries like Uganda and Rwanda support ethiopia?

@riyaq are you somali?
CultureRe: The African Phenotype Diversity Thread by Eri8: 7:57pm On Jun 16, 2013
Lol he is not. Most horners consider themselves black first and foremost. He degrades the black race acting like the world doesn't see him as one. Name one celebrity that has heritage from the horn that doesn't consider themselves black?
CultureRe: The African Phenotype Diversity Thread by Eri8: 7:33am On Jun 16, 2013
Trust me my parents were born in the Horn of Africa, particularly eritrea. I don't mind you posting pics of us as we are an example of the diversity africa shows. Idk what this niqqa somalia9 is talking bout.

SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Eri8: 3:33am On Jun 08, 2013
My brain is telling me Miami will comeback and win this series but my heart is telling me spurs in 6. Shout out to Parker, heck of a game from him
CultureRe: Black Power by Eri8: 3:26am On Jun 08, 2013
Yes baria is not the nicest word lol, but it means slave. Eritreans and ethiopians usually connect that term to african Americans. My great grandmother who can't speak English was one day explaining how people people in small towns in eritrea had barias (slaves), but they were still indeed eritreans. And interesting that you don't consider yourself black but still check the box that says black/african American.
CultureRe: The Haitian History Thread by Eri8: 9:45pm On Jun 07, 2013
Their culture is so rich. Is crazy how a country of people that were enslaved and was shipped to the carribean can be stripped of their african culture and make a new one just as unique and interesting.
CultureRe: Black Power by Eri8: 9:26pm On Jun 07, 2013
I was born in the United States and was raised here. My mother and father both came here as kids during the war against ethiopia. They are part of the Tigrinya ethnic group which is the largest, which are habesha. Just google the word habesha and please tell me what it says. We have similarities when culturally speaking. The biggest difference is politics. And the majority of eritreans and ethiopians I know consider themselves as a black person.
CultureRe: Black Power by Eri8: 5:28am On Jun 07, 2013
Only eritreans and ethiopians are habesha. We are also black. That's my opinion wich is shared by most of us eritreans and ethiopians. I guess because somalis follow the Islam religion they feel culturally attached to Arabs. But I have a question for somalia9. Do you live in the US? If you do, what race do you check on official documents?
CultureRe: Black Power by Eri8: 3:52pm On Jun 06, 2013
People need to drop the subject of the race thing. Most people consider ethiopians, eritreans, and somalis black. Us eritreans and ethiopians in my opinion are black. Obviously somolia9 doesn't consider himself black so get over it and respect his opinion. Also remember that he is only 1 opinion out of millions.

Wow a country with so much history! Sad to see the country's condition at this time.

As a Celtic fan it hurts to admit but pierce is done in Boston. Deal him and kg this offseason. Sign josh smith as a free agent. Then you have rondo Bradley green and smith.

Nothing wrong with it. If you personally feel happy then why should it matter what someone outside the relationship/marriage thinks of it?
CultureRe: The Myth About The Left Hand by Eri8: 1:34am On May 29, 2013
My grandmother to this day gets mad at the fact I'm left handed lol. Soriously though I think people need to get over the fact that not everybody is going to be right handed and the same.

Man oh man these Fulani people you have posted can all pass for an eritrean or ethiopian.

SportsRe: Why Is It Uncommon To See Black Goal Keepers In European Leagues by Eri8: 1:48am On May 24, 2013
Not the biggest soccer fan, I was born and raised in the stars and watch basketball. But I think it is because black african are know for their athleticism so it just makes more sense to let them loose on to the open field and use their speed with the ball and play defense.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Eri8: 6:25pm On May 22, 2013
Yea man really excited for the game tonight. Want to see who bosh will be matched up with, either west or hibbert. I personally think he won't be able to guard either of them lol. And who ever starts as the other big man for Miami will not be able to guard the other. It will also be interesting if Miami can get any inside scoring because hibbert is a dominant force on the defensive side.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Eri8: 10:51am On May 22, 2013
The heat will be exposed this series. No big time inside precense to stop Roy hibbert or David west. George isn't going to stop lbj but will limit him. Then there's wades knee. Pacers in 6.
