They're lazy,rude and uncultured yes! but we are not wearing the shoe that's why we don't understand them and the psychological problems they are facing.

The African American people in the US are a broken people. Broken by the white man thru long years of physical and mental slavery and oppression. Their spirit is dead. The African American community need a healing process.They lost every thing; their culture,identity,ancentral home land to oppression. I don't judge them because I understand their plight.

The African migrants in America are desperate in chasing after the money, they won't understand them and their problems

The attitudinal problems is the result of the phycological effect of their long years of oppression and subjugation. They need our love not rebuke. Moreover if not for their civil rights movement, African migrants won't enjoy the privilege to work in the US today.

The white man in America will even be glad that there's no unity among us.

You are such an arrogant hypocrite just like most Nigerians are, you said you don't judge us yet you falsely call us LAZY, RUDE, and UNCULTURED. Ironically that's how most people see Nigerians.

khiaa:


It amazes me how you arrogant people can only focus on the negative society in black Americans but can NEVER see the positive progress of a people who have come from slavery to the Whitehouse. You are such idiots you think only Igbos have aspirations. You people are blind fools. For your information education in America is not FREE, it's paid through our TAXES.

Yes, paid for by progressive taxation. I'm sure everyone understands that "free" there doesn't mean unfunded. Poor people pay little in taxes, but their children get a good education if their kids want it (many of them mock high performing black kids in school as "acting white".
I didn't say anything about only Igbos having aspirations. You obviously need a refresher on grade school English comprehension if that is worth you understood from my comment. I was showing the difference between victimhood created by sectarian strife which has led to political marginalization, and self-victimhood which obstructs individual progress. In the context of Nigerian relations, Igbo disillusionment about Nigerian politics doesn't affect our individual life in any way.

I focus on the negatives in African-American society cos I do want the best for them and the statistics about their social dysfunction are alarming and they've made little progress in decades, partly attributable to the nihilistic fiction fed to many young black Americans that they have no productive future in a racist nation that is set up to obstruct their progress.
I swear African-Americans need a similar program as Jewish-Americans who are sponsored on "birthright" trips to Israel. Young African-Americans need to take a trip to Subsaharan Africa. To see the land of their ancestors. To see what hardship and poverty and deprivation and a lack of opportunity really means. Then they might actually buckle up, get a life, get responsible and stop whining about all the ways the evil white man are oppressing them, and live a productive life.

nomenclature:


Just the same way black south Africans blame apartheid for all their economic woes and taken it out on their fellow black immigrants .

So sickening how ignorant and non-empathetic some Nigerians are. So AA and South Africans blame whites for woes, who do Nigerians blame for living in an all black country with poor roads, no steady electricity and no jobs for the young people? And least we don’t oppose our own kind.

booblacain:


Are there neighborhoods more smelly than some of the ones you have in Nigeria?

Of course they are not. Even people that are considered in poverty in the US are actually rich compared to even middle class people in Nigeria. They have 24/7 lights, access to health care, plenty of food, the internet, good roads, etc etc. Let the Naija folk hate. Not sure why they don’t unite with us. Sad.

GogobiriLalas:
Institutionalized racism is a thing in America simplicita.

The white man has put in place a socio cultural and economic system to consolidate the ill gotten advantage it acquired and to ensure that the progeny of those whom he once enslaved never rise to a position where they're able to challenge or avenge the historical wrong that was done to them.

Irrespective of political isms, the traps are overt and covert and sometimes missed by foreigners especially African diaspora who are more excited about a perceived advantage they think they gain in their newly adopted country, however, the African American has learnt from experience to maintain a healthy dose of suspicion for anything white.

From slavery to KKK to Jim Crow, from Welfarism to Sangers' Planned Parenthood and from despicable race based horrific Government backed pseudo scientific experiments sans syphilis, tuberculosis and leprosy colonies to the so called war on drugs and other petty crimes that has enabled the white man to jail a quarter of the most virile and productive male members of the African American society, the African American has evolved to distrust anything the white man does and to respond with violence whenever the opportunity presents itself and I daresay rightly so, the white man's cowardice in the face of unbridled violence is beautiful to behold.

The African migrant as usual, is quick to point fingers at his cousin's violent propensities, his unwillingness to countenance anything white as having any good or merit; he forgets quite quickly that centuries of cohabitation with the white man has given the African American a unique insight into the nature of the white species of the human race.

The African American on the other hand, holds on to centuries old grudge in which he believes that the ancestors of his ignorant cousins sold his ancestors into slavery, he perceives in the African migrant an air of condescension which he believes stems from a feeling that 'my ancestors were superior to yours and were able to run faster from the white man'.

Thus a clash between the two becomes almost inevitable that the evil genius of the white man is quick to identify and exploit for his ultimate agenda I.e. the total subjugation of this subhuman species who dares aspire to personhood. The white man would rather elevate his dog than the black man - fact.

The conclusion is that the black race as usual has taken the easy path of hate and casting blames and aspersions; finding a reason to hate your neighbor is always easy, it is hard to find a reason to love and respect him.

Like the Joseph incidence in biblical lore (Joseph was sold into slavery by his jealous brethren), the migrant can learn so much from those who were there before him, whilst those who were there before have a great opportunity in the migrant to reconnect with what they once lost.

This is a great opportunity to consolidate our knowledge and experiences, take stock of what we did wrong and how easily we allowed other races to subjugate and enslave us and to forge a common path forward.

Brilliant! Intelligent, well traveled Nigerian man. Thank you for attempting to educate your countrymen.

Nigerians stand out because of the negativity they portray. They are not a PROGRESSIVE threat but a THREAT of HARM.

So ignorant, Black Americans are in no way threatened by so called confident Nigerians. If you understand history, we are actually West African and probably share DNA with many of you. And I agree, worldwide Nigerians and African Americans are seen negativity. People that tear each other down of course can’t be respected by outsiders.

Good write-up.

Actually African Americans aren't seen in a negative light, people worldwide imitate and love our culture, it's Nigerians who are seen in a negative light because of all the scamming, drugs, sex trafficking, and child porn they are involved in when they migrate to other countries.

To be honest most black Americans don't see Nigerians as a threat because Nigerians don't exist in their world.

DexterousOne:


What is this one saying?

African Americans are just as shitty as the Africans in the continent
That is what we share in common

They ran Liberia to the ground
And it's a worse shithole than even Nigeria

Americoliberians....

While I get your point

This foolishness goes both ways, and the Afro Americans fcckup too

It's our collective foolishness
That makes the world place us at the bottom of the barrel

AA thinking they are better the regular Africans because they were unfortunate to ferried to America and flogged Koboko for hundreds of years


Or the African pointing fingers at AA while our societies are nothing to write home about

Pot calling Kettle black

Nonsense

Until this crap between these two delusional groups get dealt with

This rubbish will continue

Actually, those who ran Liberia were descendants of Africans.

I don't agree with your above premise. It is true genetically speaking the ex slaves who landed in the West Africa i.e. Liberia and sierra leone were of African descent however their mind sets were very European-centric.

I previous interactions with you, you've said AAs and Africans aren't the same. Now you say they're african.

The only thing I said was, when I say I'm African American, Africans say I'm not African, and when I say I'm black American, Africans say I don't want to be associated with Africans.

I said you guys are twisted and I will call myself whatever pleases me. I'm African and I'm American. Africans and African Americans aren't the same culturally but we are the same genetically. Stop making up stuff.

Not all african Americans think this way...

The main issue btw african American and stupiid africans is:
1. When you africans leave your shitthole countries and have the audacity to criticize the african Americans in their country.
2. When you africans think you’re better than african Americans
3. When you give birth to your african baby in American, return to your shitthole countries and then send the child back to America after 18 years to simply milk all the things (you did not work for) American citizens work hard/ pay taxes for
4. When you leave your shitthole countries to simply milk the American system, either by your fraudulent activities or by collecting govtmnt money that you do not deserve.
5. When you open your goro infested mouth to castigate the african Americans without taking a time out to completely understand their various backgrounds and history.
6. When you leave your no light shitthole countries to complain about the American system.
7. When you finally obtained your blue passport (become a voter) without understanding that a few african Americans died many years ago fighting for the rights to vote.

Can you imagine, a bunch of clowns running to Nigeria to milk our system and also criticize everything about Nigerians?
Do you guys remember how the Ghanaians were treated in Nigeria many years ago?

Africans should simply shut the fuccck up, learn to understand the history of african Americans and stop looking down at them....For sure, some of these people (African Americans) are more decent by far than average voodoo mugger Africans

Before you advise the african Americans you should first advise the area boys all around Nigeria and also stop collecting bags of rice to vote for those leaders that continue to sink your shitthole countries

I agreed with your submission except you are ignorant that it was Ghana that first expelled Nigetians years before the Ghana-must-go saga that you are familiar with.

Jaqenhghar:

You are speaking out yo ass. If you call them lazy, the hard working Africans we can see the evidence of the hard work in the way they manage Africa.

That is true.

Destroyerofyeeb:
Nah, it's called being comfortable in your self worth.

So why are the whites not loud, rude and obnoxious since it's sign of self worthiness. Behaving and talking like touts while disturbing other people is a sign of ignorance and uncivilization my friend. We'll still complain when it's African Americans that do it but believe everything we do is perfect. I feel very ashamed when I am around my people and other people can identify us based on the stupid noise they are making and the way they carried their shoulders. If it's not insecurity, it's stupidity.

Africans went through and are still going through worse, yes WORSE
of course done to them by their coon black leaders
Which makes their situation more complicated and horrible, no where and no one to run to

There is no kind of suffering they went through that didn't take place in Africa and even worse

Sad part of Africa situation is that it is still going on

No excuse on their part

You have no idea dear devil. What is happening in Africa can not happen in America without African Americans fighting it. We owe the black race all over the universe the responsibility of making Africa home to them all but mess it up with all kind of tribalism, migrate and still blame the people who make the place habitable for us.

if you listen to nigerians talk long enough, they will tell you how they invented electricity and how they were the first people to travel to space

1Sharon:


It is derogatory. Would you like it if someone called Nigerians a name?

Only ignorants and senseless people use Akata as a derogatory term. My people call their own children Akata as long as they are born in U.S. Akata is Panther in Yoruba which came from black panther movement.

"You have no idea.." no, YOU have no idea

Africans are the worst victims of slavery and oppression

They are the most degraded and exploited

From testing biological weapons to organ harvesting to genocidal wars to mass murder, cruel population reduction schemes, starvation, slavery, ethnic cleansing u name it

All sort of evil has been carried out and is still being carried out on them

They are so used to evil being done to them that they suffer and smile about it

The other selfish and greedy citizens of the world don't give a shit about Black Africans cause to them they piece of shiit only ment to suffer and be exploited

Everyone enjoys at the expense of Africans
Their suffering and pain means nothing to others

Even when others draw attention to the suffering of Africans it is nothing but a scheme to further exploit the same Africans

All the bad government, coons and house slaves in Africa are the work of others
For them Africa must remain down
If it's within their power, left to them All Africans would be DEAD
Africans would not be migrating if others have not messed up the original African set up and created all these evil problems bedeviling Africans


AFRICA OWES NO ONE NO SHIIT!
Rather everyone owes Africa
Everyone has stolen and still steals from Africa

Africans only owe it to themselves to get their acts together, and for themselves first
cause they are naturally not selfish and this is the cause of their suffering and exploitation

Until Africans start being selfish to the rest of the world their exploitation and evil done against them would continue
Nice people are always taken advantage of

Other blacks around the world should do the same
No one is coming to save you

Africa would get it right and rule the world and restore back order
Till then every other black people around the world should do their own part and stop complaining
They are not facing more demons than the Africans

You are obviously one of these stupid Nigerians who think that being loud and over confident is a sign of self-worthiness. I asked you, if it's sign of high self esteem why do we have to migrate from Ghana to South Africa? You are full of hatred from your moniker to your comments. Yes African Americans have some bad people so do we. White people have a lot of good people so do African Americans and so do we. Stop the stereotype. Stop judging everyone based on your narrow mindedness and get a life. You are not better in anyway than them and they invented most things that makes life convenient for you.
