That I do know, but damn, I'm not really shocked that some Africans hold such backward views about AAs, but I take it with a grain of salt. I know my history and I know African history.

Brite02:

segzi cres:

maclatunji:
Good lord! Inked_Nerd I swear I never knew you were a garri lover or that this thread existed when I asked you to "go and drink garri" yesterday in our debate on another thread. I sincerely apologize if it sounded like I was deriding you (I wasn't, was just joking). In all honesty, I am a garri lover as well but not as much as my siblings. Sometimes, I think my intuition is too strong for my own good.

ezeagu:
Ehen now, that's what the women received.

obowunmi:
@ Bawss, I love hot cocoa as well. Bornvita and milo --- with Nido or peak milk (loads of it). Swiss miss is enjoyable as well but I feel like its got too much sodium.
Inked, what's up with you.

Brite02:

Most of the things typed here are bulls.
Once dead,forever gone!
Too much of religion and religious jargons,haba,how can one possibly become a victim of the dead and dreams.Very funny

Thirst4Lif:
Africans must be proud of African Americans. Why else would Africans emulate A.A's to such a great degree? Music, clothes, manner of speaking, on

and on. Or maybe Africans are jealous of African Americans. African Americans are some of the most copied people on the planet!

And everyone knows it!

ifyalways:
Not necessarily so.
I think to a great extent comes from our culture of not speaking ill of the dead.
BTW,She is a mini-celebrity . . .a beauty queen,folks are bound to refer to her in regards to whatever lead her to fame/trademark.
When Dagrin died . . .we heard stuffs like,he was such a talented musician,yes?

pro01:
My thoughts too. And I've seen this happen too many times. . .as if death should only befriend 'ugly' people. It just underscores the basic vanity and insensitivity of human beings.
My sympathies to the young lady's family though.

By the way, according to the report, the masquerade did not descend upon the woman until she made some utterance. So, I'm not so sure this is just about the trousers.

Brite02:
Ah thank goodness, i taut i'd loose u to those dentists

pleep:
I agree the AA's on this thread are really sugar coating the truth about their role in America. But we can't ignore the fact that us Africans (not in the U.S) are pretty Phucked up also.

paris10:
Don't actually know what you guys have done that I should be proud of. Even your Obama is of the dictate of the majority. He hate Africans but professed to originates from there. You know what I think, some of you guys are just educated illiterates. The few educated ones amongst you still calls Africa a country.

Although you're being marginalize, stigmatize, disproportionately under-represented in decision making bodies, and often used as scapegoat when new laws are passed, you lack the skills and motivation to go on yourselves and make it big.

Enough of the media blaming. Crack is destroying the AA community. You're just 13% of the entire population and already 27% of you are in Prison for drug related offences. I do understand from the positivist point of view that you commit crime because of the social and economic deprivation emanating from your govt, you're not making it easier for yourselves as well. 1 in 3 deaths among AA is homicide. You glorify rap music that is so disrespectful not only to women but to your mothers. Rap music account for the deviant behaviour amongst AA.

Your divorce rate is so high that your girls are running away from committing themselves to a long term relationship. You have baby fathers and mothers, but no real father/mother. Single parenting/lone parenting dominates the AA community. Single parent children accounts for all major crimes being committed by AA in the state.

Get yourselves educated to a standard that will leave the whites with no option than to recognise your superiority.

I use a natural home-made mixture of sandalwood powder, rose water, olive oil, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and tea tree oil to exfoliate my skin before showering. Then I apply cocoa butter once my skin is dry. It works for me both for body and face. Darkspots, stretch marks, scars will fade and skin tone will even out. I do this 3 times a week. Hope it helps

I'm Nigerian, and in my personal opinion, African Americans have more to be proud of, in terms of modern (20th and 21st century) achievements - across a whole range of areas - than the vast majority of African nations, including Nigeria. It's just that in real life, the behavior of a lot of (young) African Americans negates this perception of them as a progressive people and is also kind of off-putting, to say the least. I'm not even trying to offend anyone, but that's just the reality.
