Mrs.Chima:


For a minute....I thought I was the only one who saw it. Whew. Thanks!

you welcome

teach them to be proud of themselves

Mrs.Chima:


You do know this is a site that was designed by a Nigerian male for Nigerians and Friends right? So how did you concluded that the chatters on this site are mostly Jamo and Black American women bashing Carrib women?

There are a handful of non-Nigerian women on this site and none of them based Carrib women.

I tire oo, I don't get it either. the OP is in the wrong forum

Ileke-IdI:


"My son will know all of his Yoruba, Ibibio etc etc".
Not saying he directly offered the Yoruba gene.

oh sorry, I understand now those are the tribes in him....hmm

Nebeuwa: What about inter-ethnic people?

I like to consider myself both Nigerian and Black American. However, when it comes to cuisine, I tend to gravitate to soul food, because my mother used to make that food for me.

I think mothers play a major role in the identity of their children.

very good, it is good someone like you admitted that

It was bound to happen, good decision

PAGAN 9JA:
they have no culture and no tribe. they can go join the akata genopool. i would never have mixed kids. NEVER!

most do blend in with akata's any way...........thank God basically all of these mixed race or naija/akata people are born outside Nigeria.........in the west

The Op of the thread is a white man, them and akata's like to talk about race threads all the time non-stop.

There is nothing new here

many mind you that are not Nigerian at all but crazy akata's

Ileke-IdI:


Na wa o! Too much for one boy.
Ibibio and Yoruba? Yoruba men They've done it again.

He is black american not yoruba

acid should be thrown back at her, to make it even

good for him..........these abominable acts need to stop

serves him right

Naija haaah...nonsence

PhysicsQED:

Well, African American. John Punch was from Virginia.

I posted the link because going off of the research, he would be part Kenyan (Luo), part European/white, and part AA in terms of ancestry.

I just thought it would be relevant in light of some of the things discussed on this thread.

It makes sense........so true

The discussion is dead now because this info now supports both Kengis and Anonyymous

I'm off

PhysicsQED: https://www.nairaland.com/1004431/obamas-mother-african-forebearer-ties

Even his white mother has a black African ancestor.........wow

so in a way he is descended from slaves in a way

kengis:

Obama succeed where those black american such as jesse jackson failed
There is one reason :obama is not your typical black american and will never be !
Obama was elected not "nominated"by whites , latinos and jews because he got this immigrant mindset that africans do share
Just like America was a magical place for his father in the 60 's ,for black americans ,it was though !whhy ?

I look at him as a Kenyan American, so true

anonymous6:

well I get what you are saying he is not the traditional African American where he is the descendants of slaves but has a direct parents from Africa but culturally Obama is African American and white Americans as you pointed out but I won't deny that some African American leaders gave him a hard time because they did

I don't think Obama is culturally African American...regardless of what he identifies as

Ileke-IdI:



LOL I love how you always jump into conclusion.

Anonymous never specified which American race demonizes black women. She didn't even specify which continent/country.

"since the western world demonizes black women ".

Based on her quote she's right. both black movie producers/ whites demonizes black women. Your posts only supported her claim.

I get what you're both saying and you're both right. . . .

Yup very True...........he is black American what do you expect?

anonymous6:

True but when a black boy is adopted by a white family, their female influence is a white female and since the western world demonizes black women when it comes to being below the ladder especially in America it is inevitable they will fall for the trap easily, but I am not saying it is the excuse majority of the time

Well you are right black American culture is europeanized, when it comes to the difference between Boris and Obama you are right; at least Obama visited Kenya three times while Boris never did however in the end of the day both Obama and Boris are african american culturally and have assimilated into the african american community, both have african american wives, both have black African fathers, and both were raised outside Africa. I am not against it actually, to me majority of the time where you are raised and who your mother is really makes a big difference. I actually think both men are good men but are not culturally african.

Ileke-IdI:
Usually children are closer to their mothers and tend to associate with their mother's origin, even when they were raised by both parents.

Both of you are correct......it is the mothers culture

This is the news we need to start hearing

Is it by force that there has to be gay-s in Nigeria; mschew

Thank God Nigeria made it illegal

may he rest in peace

Does that exist in Nigeria?
