An insightful list!

The movie, "Sugar Hill" which
featured my main man Wesley Snipes was a classic for me when
I first saw it in 1994, but the
annoying and clearly defamatory thing is that the Yoruba word Akata was incorrectly refered to as "cotton picker."

[Akata is NOT a derogatory word but means a black Panther or large wild cat as published in the first Yoruba dictionary in the 1800s, and has been used for several decades as a prestigious metaphor to refer to Yorubas and other Africans who have traveled to the Western world for education, and have imbibed Western values and accents, etc, after living there for years.
Africans in the Diaspora are metaphorically "Akata" as opposed to Africans on the Continent who in Yoruba are metaphorically "Ologbo" or domestic/house cat].

*Akatas or panthers/wild cats live far away in the wild jungle.
(The wild jungle refers to the Western world, i.e., UK, U.S.).

*Ologbos or house cats live in domestic households
(The domestic household here refers to
Continental Africa/Africans).



Yorubas, Asantis, Efiks, Hausas, Zulus, and indeed many African ethnicities use metaphors in day-to-day conversations. The
Iroko trees, panthers, lions, rocks, mountains, etc, are some of the metaphors that are used to
describe human beings and their attributes of dependability, strength, bravery, respect, body size.
Even the English people use metaphors in their language!

We can now see how some of these fictional Hollywood movies have stereotyped Nigerians, Haitians, Africans, etc, by focussing on misrepresentation and negatives.


NOTE:
The second picture below is the Akata scene
showing the 2 men who played the role
of members of a Nigerian drug cartel
in the 1994 Wesley Snipes' "Sugar Hill" movie.
This is the scene where Wesley Snipes'
African-American buddy (wearing the red jacket
in the first and third pictures below) WRONGLY
told him that Akata means "cotton picker" and
being called "cotton picker" in America is offensive to African-Americans.





P.S. @Naptu2 would be interested in this.
Obrigada... Cheers.

22) The Turning Wheel

Jab Adu (Modu) owns Modu Enterprises. One way or the other he keeps getting entangled in the rising crime rate in Nigeria. It could be his friend’s son that was arrested for possession of cocaine or some other crime that has caught his attention. As an upright and patriotic citizen, he tries to get at the root cause of the crime. This he does with the aid of his friend, Inspector Ben Alamu (later played by Enebeli Elebuwa). Modu’s clerk is Femi Jarrett (who acted with Jab Adu in Adio Family) and his messenger is the great Ihria Enakhimo. I watched The Turning Wheel in 1986, 87 and 88 on NTA and OGTV.

This is one of the benefits of NTA’s 40th anniversary, the Turning Wheel is now on YouTube.

Some of them met their deaths in what may be a bit satisfying circumstances (at least to people who where affected by their brutality).

Benito Mussolini was shot down by anti-fascists and hanged upside down in a Milanese square

Saddam was convicted of crimes against humanity and hanged in 2006. His hanging was also widely televised.
