that is not true tribalism isn't worst than racism

The moment you live the shores of Africa to a non black world, that is when will know that you are a blackman or blackwoman

Racism is worst.

Why are we black people judge as a race unlike white people who are judge individually.

How many blacks can get good jobs in UAE?

How many blacks can attend an indian owned schools in UAE?

Many blacks are use as slaves, house help and security men even if they are qualified for the position in the UAE, they are also paid very low compared to other races

You are easily judge and assume you have nothing to offer because of your skin colour

A black woman is already seen as a prostitute for been with a white or non black, she also has no access to places where white women have access to..go check Dubai

Even Orpah the black billionaire was discriminated in an European bag brand because of the colour of her skin

There was a time black people were kept in zoos

There was a time where you will be killed because you are black

Black people do not have access to loans unlike white people and are given high interest rate.

There was a time white people do not allow black people in universities

Till today, if lot of blacks pack to a white area, white flight will happen

Till today whites do not integrates with blacks, that is why in many white countries, blacks lives separately from whites.
In Brazil that has significant black population, black people are rarely given opportunity or even showed on tv

In tribalism, you still have lot of opportunities.

Do you know the trauma many blacks are facing living in spaces for other races

if something is missing, it is assume you are the one, some non black even look at blacks as having a dirty skin

explaining racism to non black people always end up with you are over reacting and it is downplayed

Do you know why many blacks are always aggressive in Europe and America, Asia and south America, it is because of racism.

Yea, I am wasting my time with this ignoramus. Using the government to keep black people from attaining specific privileges and political representation is not part of systemic racism? I was right, you are an idiot. I would pull up definitions for you, but you would be too stupid to understand those as well.

How about you shut up and let the African-Americans who have been at this fight for centuries continue their work. You clowns show up and think you know left from right. Shut up, sit down and make your little dollars with the privileges that African-Americans died for. Bye!

Another disgraceful idiot, standing on the work of giants, acting like they have made it all on their own and know it all.
This is what existing systemic racism looks like. This shit is from this year.

You're wrong. Systemic racism is institutionalized or structural racism. Preventing black people from having fair representation by diluting their voting block is systemic racism. That was one of the problems the Voting Rights act was created to remedy. I don't think you quite understand the term or the issues referenced by it..

I’ve experienced what you described many times and not only is it very embarrassing, it makes me so angry. These coons will stand around, laughing and smiling while White people make racists comments about Africans and make them the butt of their jokes and when other Africans avoid and ignore them, they’ll call them jealous. No, they aren’t jealous, they have dignity and refuse to let Whites treat them like sub-humans. I used to work with a Nigerian guy that would let these two White ladies tell other White employees jokes about his hut and monkey back in Africa. He would laugh louder than the White people and when his position was cut, none of those White people even tried giving him a job referral or reference.
When the tables finally turn on these coons, they want to run to other Blacks to help vindicate them against the Whites that they thought loved them so much.

ErenXSatoru:

I get your point.
But Racism is unsolvable if the stereotypes associated with Black people persist, people have been racist towards me - certainly; but have the government in the United States been oppressive towards black folks- I don't think so. The issue of affirmative action that made black folks get into universities easier than Asians who merited it is a perfect idea of systemic racism but we don't have to talk about that.

No matter how we see it - stereotypes are very important; the Polish government in 2007 enacted a law that made it extremely difficult for Black people to come into the country due to the fact that the news of black folks in Dallas who traveled to Finland to kill a gang member caught their attention.
Nigerians are temporarily banned to travel to the UAE because of the trespassing of more than six Nigerian citizens who came there to kill a rival gang member(s)
There's even more racism towards our blackselves; a friend of mine in Arkansas opened a flowery which succeeded but was shunned by black folks because it was too expensive to run by a black woman; black people kill more black people everyday;
We see black children on Tiktok acting like they're gang members, this things affect the psyche of other races when they see all this; it isn't right to generalise - that's true but shit happens. Gangs and drugs is even considered cool and 'black culture' by black people, it should be avoided.

It's crazy for Africans not to support black Americans in there fight but black Americans also have to find ways to change what is deemed their culture since it affects good black people everywhere too.

Another challenge with black people is conversations - most white people are just so afraid to talk about race with black people so they won't be deemed racists

Raalsalghul:


Nothing crazy about Africans not supporting Black Americans.

You can't support folks who see themselves better than you, rude towards you, make fun of your accents and calls you slangs like "freshie."

As an African in these countries, focus on your hustle and what you intend to achieve. Citizens of these said countries whether white or black don't like you. Period!

Never encountered one. No red light ticket. No police stop ever since I came here. I live in a 90% white neighborhood. Infact everyone loves my accent. The police know me very well. I also recently help them catch a murderer. I have been watching the guy and use dash cam to record him. Something in me never went well with him. God bless America. May dollar keep climbing In Jesus name 🙏

CandidAdmin:
Nigerian based abroad, please share your experience with racist or when you are being discriminated because of your color.



Note: This is not an Anti Japa thread.

MatrixCircle:
A white patient I supported to use the toilet on reaching there saw the cover of the toilet sit was black hmmm he refused to sit on it because of the color that it's my toilet and not his because of the color of the sit cover.
That's the only thing close to that I have experienced. Aside from that I haven't experienced anything close to that in 🇬🇧.

Skyview01:


A Cameroonian shouted time "I AM NOT A NIGERIAN" with anger in his eyes when I mistook him for a Nigerian. Nigerians and the world have made me selfish and hardened. They will always come close when they need something from you and will never offer you any advantage.

When I first came to Canada. I looked up a church online and called the church number. I told them I was a newcomer with three children and a little bit stranded in Canada. I had no friends in Canada at the time, I just looked up the map, selected a province, and landed with my family, little kids included in -30degree of windchill.

The church collected my address, came to my house with a truck delivered full of furniture, a dining table, and 3 queen mattresses, and gave my wife a gift card of more than $500. with all these, I was never proselyted or invited to their church. Can this ever happen in any churches in Nigeria?

Your guess is as good as mine.

I quickly connected three Nigerian families from a different tribe and they all went to this church and got their entire houses furnished. One of the guys, I helped get a job when he came crying to me and I used the truck from my white friend, Donald, to help him make a mover when he got a new house. I thought we were fellow blacks and Nigerians and we could be there for each other.

After a while, He realized I was not from his tribe and started being tribalistic and I cut him off.

1stGenAmerican:


IjeBoss is one of the few Nigerian men in this country that took the time to learn about this country’s history in order to gain an understanding of how things really work—and he’ll always have my respect. It’s embarrassing because many Nigerians here in America align themselves with racists even going as far as to tell racist jokes about Black people to White people, not realizing that to White people, they are Black and perhaps of a lower class. Matter of fact, some of them will immediately upon arrival in the states tell White people that they aren’t Black, they’re Nigerian. They talk bad about African Americans with White people not knowing the same White people tell jokes about Nigerians being scammers and fake princes. They don’t realize that the White men aren’t laughing with them, they’re laughing at them. I wish they would learn who is on their side and who isn’t.

1stGenAmerican:


I’m sorry that your niece experienced that, my good friend. Please hug her for me and tell her that she’s beautiful.

motymop:


Yes, there are many Nigerians of different tribes living in various places in Nigeria.

Everyone has access to good education, no school will discriminate against you because of your tribe.

No

No bank will discriminate against you because of your tribe.

You can live in anywhere in Nigeria.

You are free to attend any religious gathering.

No hospital will discriminate against you because of your tribe

No patient will discriminate against you because of your tribe

You will get the same job opportunities in Nigeria especially when you live in big cities.

You can open a business anywhere

No business will reject you because of your tribe

Many Nigerians issue isnt tribalism but lack of opportunities due to the few available opportunities in the country.

So! your conclusion is that there is no racism in Canada.
Have you lived in Canada?

People are talking about their personal experience with racism and you are here talking about vote and politic.

The koko of it all. The belief that everyone should like everyone does not exist. I recall Tensa20 told me about a popular Facebook group for black folks in tech. Guess what? The African Americans don't share job invites with black Africans. But the group was created by an African (I think Nigerian. Tnesa20 has to confirm this).

The same African Americans from what I read on Twitter would do anything to prevent blacks Africans access to the US, but befriend other races, who don't even like black people at all, and don't care to differentiate blacks based on nationality or ancestry. BTW, the reason Liberia had its civil war was because the returnee African Americans subdued the native Liberian population and impoverished them in their land.

So much for black solidarity. If to say we even get one black dominated country like South Korea and Germany, e for better. Imagine arguing about racism when na we poor pass other races?
