all4naija: I laugh at your links with some tears coming out of my eyes. If you are talking about hate no other skin colors like blacks for sure. If you are trying to exonerate Arabs here only proves you are a fool who's brainwashed. There are thousands and one links to prove Arabs hate blacks more than any other race!

Even within Africa:

2. https://www.nairaland.com/380829/saudi-throws-kenyan-maid-out - nairaland.com

3. http://www.africanglobe.net/africa/ethiopians-face-murder-rape-mistreatment-arab-world/ - africanglobe.net

I can go on and on but it doesn't justify what Israelis are doing to blacks in their country. To exonerate your Muslim brothers only speaks of your biased brainwashed mind!
I'm glad someone else had the foresight to mention this issue. I hadn't even seen this before commenting.

That's why African countries will act as slaves for every other region. It irks me to the bone!

Because of what's happening in countries that don't even recognize blacks as legitimate individuals, people on here are running around flexing internet muscles.

You are a squeaking rat, a mistake of nature and a heavy-metal bagpipeplayer. You were not born. You were hatched into an unwilling world that rejects the likes of you. You didn't crawl out of a normal egg, either, but rather a mutant maggot egg rejected by an evil scientist as being below his low standards. Your alleged parents abandoned you at birth and then died of shame in recognition of what they had done to an unsuspecting world. They were a bit late.
This was too funny!!

Back to Ghaddafi, I still can't understand how anyone thinks he has the interests of Africans at heart. He barely has the interest of his Arab brothers too much at heart, much more, black Africans.

[color=#0066ff]PhysicsMHD Ok. A hero some some is a villain to others and my point stands that no 'black' African leader has reached out and stressed the importance of Pan-Africanism as he did. Him wanting to spread Islam and supporting terrorism is not exactly ideal to me but he did. He even trained some of Africa's notorious war-lords or what have you, on his soil. Again his methods were not always right but the concept was. My opinion and apparently it is shared with many others. You and Savanna disagree and that is fine; btw wikipedia is not always reliable  wink. [/color]
I think his reasons for stressing Pan- Africanism is so that he can be the lifetime leader of the whole of Africa.

MzD@rkSkin:
[color=#0066ff]I disagree. I dont think he meant it the way some folks are taking it.
I think he is simply playing on the fact the most Africans see him as an "Arab brother"
and because of the high respect, many have restricted their ppl from using his country as a
vessel to enter the Med. Everyone knows that the history of "Sub-Saharan Africans" and the Med.
is bitter sweet being that black originally inhabited those areas and were moved by force or integrated
with the ancestors of those who are now north Africa's majority (Arabs). It is also no secret that
that very history has caused there to be distrust and tension btn the two groups.
He being one of the few Arab-African head of states to try to mend the gap is the reason for his "clout".
So he is right that he has a responsibility as far as that "security" comment goes.

He is also playing what card he has left on the deck; FEAR.
White ppl use the concept of intimidation and fear to achieve just about everything they
have and want, so why not scare those European cavemen by informing them that
they will be over taken by blacks? lol if I were desperate as he is, I would esp. when I know
whites are actually waiting for and aiding those who want to put an end my reign as "ruler".
But bottom line, I still support Gaddafi on in the strength that
he did support and aid many African nations who sought help from him. He did more for the
'Pan Africanist' vision inside of Africa than any other SO-CALLED African leader (the black ones).  tongue lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

Ghaddafi like most Arabs are racists against blacks. What it sounds like he said is exactly what he said. He is saying that if he leaves, there will be no one to kill the Africans before they reach the European country they are going to.

It doesnt matter who is in charge - the big corporations own american politicans - they (US politicians) are all rented whores who do the bidding of their paymasters.  whether you vote republican or democrat - its the same di.ck they use to keep shafting you the electorate.  They let you go to the polls evry 4 years to vote just to make you feel as if you have some control over your destiny, its nothing but a mindfu.ck, they couldnt give two fu.cks what you think, vote in the democrats the same multinational corporations carry on taking the piss out of you - by  shipping jobs overseas cutting public spending and now dismantling rights enshrined in the american constitution. 

Did you know that George Bush Jnr took away the right from americans to challenge indefinite imprisonment without trial in 2006?  read up on the military commissions act 2006 which suspends the right of  habeas corpus.

Most americans are too busy watching x factor, america's next top model, how to marry a millionaire and other mind numbing bull sh.it therefore its so easy to pull the wool over the average american's eyes.

However when you start  interfering with people's livelihood as is the case with the governor of wisconsin people start waking up. Lets see how many more americans will snap out of this self induced coma and realise that their  comfortable way of life is now under attack.
I think the Republicans enjoy screwing over the average person more. Either that or they do it more effectively.
CelebritiesRe: Fallout: Beyonce Under Fire For Blackface Photos. by savanaha: 12:48am On Mar 01, 2011
cap28:
thanks ADM, my response was limited to the situation in the US thats why i focused in on the history of "black face" in america.

There is rabid racism all over europe, England is very racist and blacks here do not have access to the same level of opportunities or even enjoy the same levels of success as blacks in america. There is also a racial hierarchy here with whites at the top, asians and other non black groups in the middle and blacks at the bottom, our low population (approximately 3% ensures that we have very little influence in determining policy).

The BNP have a huge following amongst working class whites who have been affected the most by job losses following the economic downturn, in a bid to blame someone for the economic mess created by the last labour govt and the ongoing brutal austerity measures being implemented by the tory/liberal democrat govt they look for scapegoats and the easiest people to blame are immigrants.

The reality is that the BNP are opportunitists who manipulate and feed off the deepseated racism that many white british people feel towards non white people in this country.

You are right the anti muslim sentiment IS huge, it has deliberately been whipped up by the right wing media who created "Islamophobia" (an irrational fear or hatred of muslims) by linking terrorist attacks carried out in america and britain with islam, again this was done deliberately by the media in order to create a divide and rule environment, the more divided you are the easier you are to control as they say.

I think Sammy Sosa is an extreme example of a self hating black person , there are however, a lot of black people in the west who secretely hate being black - this is played out in many ways, one example being the promotion of black beauty by the western corporate media by using mixed race women as a representation of black beauty - almost every "black woman" used to promote black beauty in the west is of mixed race origin (Halle Berry, Vanessa Williams, Beyonce) as opposed to India Irie, Lauren Hill or any black woman who does not have obvious europeans facial features or skin tone.

The years of racism that diasporan blacks have been subjected to at the hands of whites has now manifested itself as internalised self hatred.
Its gradually spreading to africa as well because of the insidious effect of the toxic western media and many african people now show symptoms of this mindset.
The bolded is sad but very true. That's why many African women are poisoning themselves with mercury by using bleaching cremes.

Inked_Nerd:

Oh ok. I was unaware of the part about the photographer. Thanks fro sharing. And yes, racism is still very much alive and well here in the US. I think because people outside of the US see certain images on tv, they assume that all is well over here. Not too long ago, I was at a Russian neighborhood with a male friend of mine and we were being affectionate with one another and I got a dirty look from a young Russian couple that was walking by. The scars of racism are still very fresh within American society. Some people may look at it and say "Move on" or "That was a long time ago" but that just not the case. Its a very touching subject both for African Americans and African living in America [especially for those Africans who have grown up or lived in the US for a long time].
Most of the people saying move on will have a change of heart if they experience. However, I think the issue with humanity atimes is the inability to be empathic.

That people are always criticising Beyonce or whatever, if any other celebrity were to use shoe polish or whatever to darken ONLY their face in order to pay tribute to Africa or wherever they would get flack for it. Even Forest Whittiker got some flack for painting his whole body dark to play "Last King of Scotland."
Foreign AffairsRe: Are Libyans Ignorant Of Their Own Racial Makeup Or Just Plain Racist by savanaha: 3:10am On Feb 26, 2011
Hahaha I noticed the black Libyan men are "doomed" to marry black Libyan women. Who knew that marrying a black woman is an impending doom.

Oh well. I found it funny in another discussion when someone was denying the arab racism against blacks which is also pervasive.

I showed my father videos of "black African mercinaries" and he told me that someone of them are probably Libyans. Now I see that he was probably right.

CelebritiesRe: Fallout: Beyonce Under Fire For Blackface Photos. by savanaha: 11:18pm On Feb 25, 2011
As a non African American I know that there is a bitter history behind black face. Therefore I am not sure how Beyonce who is actually an African American did not take this into consideration when she agreed to wear black face as an "artisitic" endevour.

Plus the picture is supposedly paying tribute to Fela Kuti and honoring African Queens. Really!?! What exactly about these pictures is honoring Fela or Africa?
Do Africans only come in one skin shade or are there really no Africans that are the same complexion as Beyonce?
Does Beyonce who is AFRICAN American need for only her face to be painted black to honor African Queens?
Are there no dark models who could be used for the shoot instead of darkening her face?

To pretend that this was done as an artistic expression is quite ludicrous.
Personally I think she did it because she would be paid good money. Get more exposure although she already has plenty. And stir up controversy, which is good for business. Because in the entrainment industry publicity, whether negative or positive publicity is publicity.

EzeUche_:
In the violence of the last fortnight, the colonel's African connections have only served to rekindle a deep-rooted racism between Arabs and black Africans.

As mercenaries, reputedly from Chad and Mali fight for him, a million African refugees and thousands of African migrant workers stand the risk of being murdered for their tenuous link to him.

One Turkish construction worker told the BBC: "We had 70-80 people from Chad working for our company. They were cut dead with pruning shears and axes, attackers saying: 'You are providing troops for Gaddafi.' The Sudanese were also massacred. We saw it for ourselves."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12585395
Wasn't someone on NL the other day banging on pots and pans that Arabs in the continent of Africa aren't racist and have no problem with black Africans? I knew it was a wait and see thing before the charade was up.
The one that irks me are the blacks willing to take money to do Ghadaffi's bidding when he would have been happy to kill these same mercenaries on any other circumstances.

She's a goat. So if one day someone decides to pay tribute to Jackie Chan, he or she should paint his face yellow abi? Or maybe pose while holding their eyes to make them look slanted?
ogugua88:
Lol how is it nothing? She's stereotyping an entire group of people. It's now acceptable because she's Beyonce? Is this how to connect with Africans or African Americans? To paint her face black? If I wanted to depict Somalia, I wouldn't starve myself for two weeks and allow flies to perch on my face, would I?

I, personally, don't like being stereotyped. Not all Africans are black in color. Not all Africans wear cheetah and snake print as she has done. Someone pay tribute to Jackie Chan. I'm very serious. Paint your face yellow, and hold chopsticks in one hand and a bowl of rice in the other. Tell me which Oriental Asian won't take offense.
You tell the truth very funnily.

Too much of a good thing could become bad.

I'm sure Libyans rejoiced and danced in streets when Gadaffi came to power----understandably!

If he had relinquished power after a year or 4 years at best when the ovation was the loudest, he would have remained an eternal hero to his poeople and Africans in general.
No, once he tasted the sweet intoxicating smell of power, he remained addicted to the influence.

This quote reminds me of the Dark Knight: "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Algerian:
Finally, I don't know if I was somehow clumsy talking about how my people view darker skin people, but to show you how it's really difficult to tell I remember that I argued once with a friend (Algerian "white" too, who lived in a town 30km distant from mine) about  if there's actually any racism in Algeria against black people, and we totally disagreed on that! I think that the best answer that I should gave is that's unfortunately a non-issue for most people there even for the black Algerians and I'm pretty sure that you'll never find any Algerian saying that he will be glad to kill black people as it was said right here about Arabs/North Africans,
Odd enough, I have a female Muslim friend who has traveled to various Arab countries; Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Morocco, Algeria just to name a few, and she has told me that the perceptions of blacks and dark skinned people are horrible. She even tried to start a campaign in one of these countries where she did her study abroad in order to try and educate people against their prejudice. However, she said her efforts were shut down.

I think though that experiencing the situation as a black person and perceiving it as a non-black are completely different.

So, there is no such thing as a Cougar in Nigeria?

Of course there is just one standard and you know nothing of anything that is not of this one standard?

People of all ages and sexes can and do get use by those who only intention is to use them for their gain.

That is not the case each and every time for the same exact situation, but is very unfortunate for the one who was used.
My understanding of a cougar is an old woman that goes after younger men. Based on my understanding, the relationships do not actually mature into anything productive. However, if you enjoy playing Suga mama, then good for you. Like I said before I think that you are a "financial fairy godmother" who has doled out around $7,200 if anything you have said here is true.

Since it is your money I say if you enjoy giving then more "grease to your elbow" (or something like that). No need to complain. That is if this story of yours has not been concocted to get responses.
