To Chinani,

chinani:
Let me add my bits:

@ All
NinetoFive's 1st post on Nairaland was about his wife & children. If 'you' (royal you) did not read it, it's not his fault that you (still royal) are disappointed and confused. No, this comment isn't just for Sista. I have some friends on Nairaland who were also "surprised" (not good surprise or bad surprise just surprise) about NinetoFive but I knew that already b/c I read his 1st posts.

NinetoFive, ndo. But Nna, I don't the think the 'A. Pushkin' story is an aside persay. Here, let me retell it.

The king or czar is Peter the Great. In the late 15th c. a young boy and his sister were sold into slavery from Eritrea. It's believed that they came from a dynastic family or a family of lesser nobles but no one is certain. The siblings ended up in Turkey and Istanbul where the sister died. From there the boy was taken by orders from Peter the Great, czar of Russia, to Russia. Peter the Great became his godfather and showed methodical concern for him.

Here's a link. It's reasonably factual & easy to understand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Pushkin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abram_Petrovich_Gannibal

That Eritrean man was ALEXANDER PUSHKIN's paternal great-grandfather. Alexander Pushkin is the "author of the modern Russian language". The way he wrote changed the way people spoke! Very few times in history has this happened. Pushkin also elevated the position of the novel but that's another subject.

Anyhow, it's arguable that the "father of modern Russian" is "black" but in his time A. Pushkin & his father weren't really considered black. Just shows how subjective race is. But then again, Racism is neo-classism in disguise.

Queen Victoria did something similar for a young girl from West Africa. I read about it many years ago & when I have time to find the link or the book title I will post it. (The Queen Victoria story is easier to find b/c it's more recent.)

Daalu nne nne for your concern, and thank you for elaborating on the Pushkin story, The reason why we face so much racism today is because of the ''Anglo Americans'' and ''the British'', infact they are the course of all our problems, throughout my growing up in Eastern Europe I never faced depression because of Racism, it was in Britain I first faced depression about racism because; though you might not see it on the street of Britain but is very very political and is alive, they can't just let go, any time you put on your TV, every 30 minutes you must see something negative about Africa in the name of Charity, shows are common place on British television and is all full of racism. Before racism started in 1996 in Russia through the influence of American films, a Russia would see a black person on the street and say eh! country man come to me I insist, he would feed you offer you drink, but today if they see a black person on the street they would go after the person to kill the person, even mixed race people are included, now you can see how the west is spreading racism intensionally.

To Babyosis,

babyosisi:
9to 5.
Nwannem nwoke,O kwa gi n'asi m welu nwayo, kita i fu go ife?
N gwa welu nwayo nwoke oma.
lovu o nwunye i ofuma O.

i nu go nwanne,OK.

Ada oma, biko amaram na inwelike ever gbaghalu mu, nne nne biko okwa obi oma mu mere njili kwu otua, mana biko nwannem chefuo, if you ever can, I was a fool. Mee kam nmalu, if you accept my apology.

Now you can see we all can go mad sometimes, have a nice life.

You will always be wrong my wife is not a Russian, I just wrote about that part of Russian history for people to know where all our problems started from, other people has grasped that, but you? I cant be bothered, you are not smart enough to grasp what I meant, all you are good at is running you mouth.

To Sista,

I 've been a gentleman, to make you shut up but you can't , you called me a hypocrite and whatever, you spent a lot pages on this forum, talking about me and my family, what a surprising thing to have done by somebody whom Immediately Babyosisi mentioned your family you started complaining, your ranting about the Igbo's lately has a lot to do with this your discursions below on one of your threads, which unfortunately did not work out, who is the hypocrite?, is it me?, when i came to this forum, I made it clear that my wife is white and tryed to share my experiences with my people, then it must definitely be you who came here in pretext of loving black people. Initially you thought every one that is good to you wants to marry you, and now that you 've seen you are wrong, you went neurosis and you are spreading all the shxt around, you have to be hournest I ve taken enough shxt from you not to do these.

@ To all

check this out, yall keep talking about how us Black Americans was not born and bred in Africa, So what! That don't mean a bag of bricks.

I have several African brothers and sisters that live in America, infact I met up with one today. I told him about this discussion and who I talk with when I come in here. He immediately told me I was waisting my time and although I disagree with him on this, He did say to me that it is the poor uneducated Blacks in Africa that say the things you Black Africans in here been saying. When he said uneducated he meant the white mans education.

When I told him about some of the positive African black men that came in here, he kept asking me to find out what tribe they were from and were they married because he swore that the men would be trying to be cool so that I might consider marrying them and bringing them back to America with me. When I told him that it was some open minded African sisters that came into the discussion from time to time, he stated that these days Black Africans are going both ways, he was basically saying that the women would also try to get me to marry them  or to do some type of favor for them. 
He was kidding about that, I think  but this is what he said and he is a African black man born and bred in Africa.

* yawns! wonders what he is still doing here *

I'm sure if i had made the same statement your "brother" made, i'd have been labeled a "worshiper of whites" or a hater of my black skin! It bothers on the ridiculous that african men here would be trying to be cool to get you to marry them. There are far better girls to pick, at this point even a white girl would be a better choice than the hate filled racists on this thread!

Pray! What did he mean by "poor undeducated blacks from africa"? Are the black americans here any better even with all the resources at their disposal? Why do i have to go to school each morning and be the only black face (all the way from Nigeria!) in an entire 4 level building? Where are all the "rich educated black americans"? I find them on the early morning methadone queues, in prison, the security gate, cleaners offices, as mugshots on TV e.t.c! So much for those trying to slag off the Black African who has to fight through the odds to get himself a decent existence!

If any one should be slagging off whites, it should be those of us who were opportuned to be born in the continent you claim was ruined by the white man.

Sista,

You can tell your friend that 925 is very sincere and not looking for a wife. He has worked all over the world and understands the world exactly as African Americans and your African Continental friend understands it.

I understand your Continental African friends sentiments.

One has to be very hard headed to be able to work in the midst of such insane white worship as displayed here by some, the thinking is so primitive and backwards, one gets the idea that we are back in the 1400's and the whiteman has just shown them their 'fire' trick.

In their mind, there is only One that is good and that is the whiteman.

Saying we should love blacks as you have done, is the same to them as saying: love the devil. This is why your very lovely opening post was attacked instantaneously.

Yes 925 was one of the few, I really liked him, I would marry him any day and bring back to America with me but he is more than likely already taken 

But, I think my friend was making a general statement based on the Education of African blacks. Don't get me wrong, what my African friend said was not very nice at all and I told him he was wrong. I was just trying to show the ones that keep coming in here talking about this born and bred crap that here is a man also, that was born and bred in Africa, here his is his point of view. That is all I was trying to show. Yes they are born and bred black Africans but they don't share the same point of view as all Black Africans.
