If you look around the world, there is current reestablishment of peoples' ethnicity associated with a nation. There is nothing such as "Black Africans". The lack of ethnical identity with respect to nation have forced most Africans to assume a form of irresponsible thing out of color chart as an identifying attribute. Nigerians have no identify so are most African countries. As fighting each other, most dumbass Nigerians will continue to fight one another until the cesspit is disintegrated into nation states.

BlowBack:


Very correct!

The German is racially different than a Slav.

So also a Jap is distinct from a Malay.


That's nice in theory, but how did this stop Britain, Germany, France, Portugal, Spain, from coming together and dealing with you black Africans? How does it stop the fact that anywhere you go you will be dealt with as a black African?

How much currency does your ethnic identity have outside of black Africa?

The ignorance here is that most people can't think bast their nose, the whole issue is that warring sides often come together for the betterment of the parties involved when they cannot stand strong as one, there is no African ethnic group that has the capability of throwing off China economically if China were to successfully fully incorporate the territories around them. The black Africans dying in the Mediterranean look like nothing else than like a sea of black bodies to these people, they could care less about your ethnicity which to them is nothing more than tribal noise in the bush.

You can't certainly compare your ethnicity to Germans.

That's the problem, you're ignorant of the fact that most mechanical objects came from after the Industrial Revolution, which further proves the point that one of Africa's main problems is ignorance.

It would be too much to explain why certain neighbourhoods that are low income deteriorate from issues that are more related to the neglect from the government than to the intelligence of the population. Detroit is an example of how the hollowing out of industry has lead to the black population which was held back in times of prosperity becoming dysfunctional. It is very convenient to forget that fact that blacks in America had had decades where they were not allowed into better funded schools, and that England has a zoning issue where lower incoming households are grouped together and abandoned, that's not to forget the fact that Peckham is actually becoming more upscale now.

If you look at nairaland's politics section, it's still filled with ethnic bickering despite the news that thousands of Nigerian youths are being traded as slaves in the Arab world (not just Libya).

One thing black Africans in general do not understand is that no matter how much animosity there is between ethnic groups, all other groups are looking to exploit and even possibly wipe out black Africans because they see them as weak links.

How is it that there is a protest against an ethnic group in Nigeria, but the worry over youths in Libya has not gone past the internet in Nigeria? Is it because it's easier to fight inside, or because the average black African does not have the guts to face Arabs, Chinese, Indians, and other races? Imagine if this enslavement were to have happened in Ghana, there would have been a war between the two countries citizens, but not a pim has been said to Arabs.

Therein lies your problem.

We know who they're selling.

The ones that claim to develop the world.

Anyway, they call it a hustle.

I believe 31% of Ibos were sold during the trans-atlantic slave trade. The Same thing is happening again.

you keep hammering on Ignorance as a factor that is drawing us back.

Nigeria has been independent for more than half a century yet. look at where we are. we have not got anything right be it electricity, roads, even FOOD.

Ivory coast main export is cocoa. they export it raw to foreighn countries. I watched a video that shows that majority of those farmer have not tasted chocolate in thier life time.


you may argue forth and back. Negroid have issues with intelligence. or what could be the explanation for the incessant herdsman/farmers clash.

An average HAUSA/FULANI man never evolved from being a hunter gatherers. their IQ is very low it is only comparable with that of the australian Aborigines. when an hausa man leave his enclave and move to other region. observe their living condition they either live in constructed kiosk made with wood or pan. or they cluster in a room.

we africans seems not capable of having the ability to plan for the future. we wait for the future to happen to us.


my tirade might seems racist. but I beg you to make further inquires into the subject matter. the bottom line is that blacks have low IQs. though there maybe excpetions.

Guy, Hausa and Fulani people ran a whole Caliphate with its on standing army highly trained cavalry until the British came with their corruption. The people who make up Boko Haram are the Kanuri people who had the Kanem-Bornu Empire. You're not making sense.

This is Kano in 1931.

Are you be any means referring to the Yoruba and Igbo Cold War? If yes, that Cold War would soon metamorphose to a real civil war in Nigeria. We are appalled with what is happening in Libya but the Yoruba race cannot continue to turn a blind eye to igbo hate. These wars online would soon spill offline and there shall be massive loss of lives and destruction of property. Yorubas are not the cause of Igbo misfortune in Nigeria. Igbo should rather look inward and go back enmasse to the east.

Fool, the separation of the two groups/others within Nigeria either through true federalism, regional government, or Biafra in order to fast foreword the development of the sub-sahara Africa and avoid other human race enslavement of black Africans is what the Igbos stood for and have being sacrificing their lives in millions to achieve it. The Yorubas on the other hand(up till today) have gone at any length to stifled those aspirations because they don't like Igbos. You partake in their genocide and are conspiring to plain another. Plain of separation from Igbos is easier for Yorubas than another plain to partake in Igbo genocide. Obasonjo a Yoruba man, as a matter of policy stopped the Onne port in River state from becoming a full fledged sea port. Stifled the building of real international airport at Enugu therefore forecing a whole ethnic group of almost 40million to go through lagos for their international trade with the outside world. Igbos understood the White Man intentions for black Africans, but Yorubas seams like they don't. They have being observing how the two tribes relate to each other from(Igbo/Yorubas/others) the slave plantations of North/South America's and must have concluded that they are strange bedfellows, but will lump them together in the same space anyway. Separation is what you must seek and not cold war to full blown civil war with the Igbos, but your evil mind will not allow you.

It is unfortunate you have the intellect to refer to certain people as Europeans and never had one that could spur you to refer people from Africa as Africans. Whether the Europeans defined Africa as continent or not, Africa is a continent equal in pedigree with Europe, Asia, North and South America. It is pertinent you refer to people who are native to African continent as Africans not the idiotic word, "Blacks". I am native to Africa and Nigeria hence had gladly and proudly identified myself as Igbo man and that is the reality. Anybody who arrogates Black to him/her self has inferiority issue.

Historically speaking, blacks or rather American blacks are defeated people. Hundreds of years of oppression and lynching has turned American blacks dull. Blacks in U.S.A were hard working, yes we built the White House as slaves, we built their major railway lines as slaves and we built almost everything along with other minority in the US. One man I was talking to told me that the education given to black folks in USA means nothing. He gave himself as an example and said "I am a psychologist, how many black people visits psychologists?" We need to go back to when we produced things, black folks in US in the 60s and 70s were well better and great workers then white folks came with Thur hand outs and told them " divorce your husbands and get free housing and shit".


On Black Africans, the visitation of the white man spelled doom. All races especially Caucasians want one thing: the exploitation of blacks. That is what we are seeing now in China and Israel. Why are buddying us up now? China will promise to give you electricity that would be installed by its people and you take loans from them to finance it but in return we give them hundreds of years in mining contracts. I fear for us youths of Africa, our future have been mortgaged.
Britain was divide and conquer, they understood that family is the only thing we value, they started decimating our families and values. China Achebe was trying to tell us something in Things Fall Apart. His message was that wherever the white Man lands, things are never the same again.

No, the so-called American Blacks were not defeated but enslaved. The identification of human as Black streamed from slavery. Anybody who is slightly against slavery should equally disavows the use of the word, black for human. Even the idiots who fanned the flame od segregation by embracing "white and colored people" did have the intellect to recognize that "white' is also a color. The reign of idiocy and acceptance of inferiority complex had to be stopped. No human being is either "White or Black" but the idiocy that plays trick on the intellect of dunces.

However, as beautiful as this post appears, i see no reason why Nigerians should attack the Arabs. If we had self respect and dignity for ourselves, they wouldn't have treated us as trash.
Did you not hear that Nigerians and fellow west Africans were the ones selling their own people to these Arabs? Exactly the same scenario that played out during the transantlantic slave trade. We have always been the cause of our own problems.

Dude you are looking for a world where people will be "colorless". All most all wants that, but the truth is that at the end of the day, your color plays a role in your life.
You can take your mountain lessons to yourself, caucassians are white. At least that is the norm now. Read what I wrote and explain how it's junk.
What does hundred of years of oppression do to a people? It defeats them, that's why we are now rising. White peoples don't like us to rise, Nick Kaepernick is without team because he protested by kneeling. We were defeated psychologically before, but now we are rising.
