₦airaland Forum

Rafikizolo:
Hi friends, I have lurked on this site for a long time but decided to create an account today after some recent disturbing and disheartening posts I've seen in the culture section these past few weeks (not going to name people or even the threads I am referring to).
I am a Kenyan-American (dual citizenship) who has lived in South Africa and the United States and visits Kenya regularly. Admittedly, in all these countries, all of the Africans I associate with are fairly progressive so maybe I have a few misconceptions about the things I'm about to discuss here.

In all my time, I've never seen so much illegitimate and unprovoked childishness and hatred from people as I have on this forum with the exception of radical white nationalist groups like the KKK and Stormfront, etc. I'm being very serious right now. People on this forum are better at spitting hatred towards black people than some white neo-nazis, and WE ARE BLACK.

I'm not saying everyone on this forum is like this of course, but why are there so many people who are? Why attack South Africans/Kenyans and tear-down their looks and cultures because you're Nigerian and feel that you are superior? Why dehumanize "bantus" because you are Somali and feel that you're different and more culturally/genetically advanced? None of it makes sense, and one offense is not better than the other. Why must posts that are dedicated to praising our beautiful African women always devolve into tribalistic nonsense?


I'm only 20 years old, but in my opinion, no functioning adult should even be involved in a debate about which country has the most beautiful women... everybody knows they've seen both ugly women and pretty women everywhere they go, and it doesn't matter what you think anyway. Right now there is a white guy somewhere who only finds Swiss women attractive and will swear on his life that they are the most beautiful people in the world, but obviously everyone here would probably disagree with him. Nobody here who thinks, Nigerian/Ghanian/Angolan/Somali/Kenyan/Tanzanian/etc women are the most beautiful are any more correct than that white man.


All of these unnecessary divisions are foolish in my opinion. National identities are created and destroyed constantly. 100 years ago, there was no Kenyan national identity, no Nigerian identity, no Malawian identity, there wasn't a Pakistani identity or a South Korean identity either. And 1000 years ago there wasn't even an overarching black identity in Africa. All of these internet wars that are fought between nations are so arbitrary. Right now countries like Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and Burundi are working towards a political and economic union to form a new country, while leaders of the African union are constantly working towards African unity and have spoken in favor of creating a unified African state. Why are people on here so backwards?


When I listen to Nigerian music or South African music I do not feel inferior or jealous or unworthy. I feels so proud. I feel proud of all African achievements. Yet some people on here have written posts claiming that Nigeria is the best country because it has the best music and everyone else is jealous and it has the biggest economy and is therefore untouchable and all other African countries are sub-par and nobody can match Nigeria's excellence etc, etc. By that "logic", the United States is undeniably the best country in the entire world and every African country can suck it (including Nigeria) because the United States has the most popular musicians in the world (and that's not changing any time soon) and has the world's largest economy (Nigeria isn't even in the top 25 largest world economies).


So please, can we move on from this childishness? As Kenyan, i see all African people as my brothers (even Cushites, idk what Axum says) and I know literally dozens, perhaps hundreds of people who see things the same way. So why so much foolishness here? We are all family. One Africa, One Fate.

Just because he decided not to follow the Imperial colonial masters he was assassinated



Yes but see what happened recently to some of those who betrayed him. What goes around comes around...













This is how this whites kill our men of honour, economy and values

kachnov:
like the military, civilian aircraft designs should include ejectable compartments for passengers in times of distress..This should go a long way in reducing fatalities arising from air mishaps.

Too many deaths from plane crashes.

khiaa:
Oops.......that post wasn't meant for you. Sorry

Fulaman198:
Spambot is stupid, it banned Takamba and unfortunately, I don't mod this section.

Fulaman198:
I don't know about that, after watching those Laamb fighters lift weights, I wouldn't say that. I'm willing to wager that the Strongest of the Senegalese are every bit as strong if not stronger than the Strongest men in the world. Especially the Serer who are Fishermen.

Fulaman198:
Too much mande blood in them ROFLLL that's why they shrunk

JiggamanGh:
This I agree but they are not taller the Africa Americans. Realize that the strongest and the best of Africans were sold as slaves. Selective breeding. African Americans are taller than Senegalese

JiggamanGh:
X

I beg to differ I visit New York a whole lot and the average Senegalese is average. You dare compare these guys to nba players.

Spare me your crap about Sahel being tall the average Fulani in guinea is short. Aren't they Sahel also

CAMNEWTON4PRES:

CAMNEWTON4PRES:
Takamba is a Cameroonian name too wow

onila:
U don't understand Takamba is Senegalese

where the average man is a giraffe

her standard shld be naturally high

Fulaman198:
I know that your type are the Senegalese Wolof men, but once you get a look at moi, [b]the tall handsome Fulani man (ok bragging is stupid I"m just being playful don't mind me), you will change your mind.

onila:
I think black American men are the hottest black men and men in the world

esp those NBA players I just watch NBA for eye candy not that I really enjoy the game that much

agree or disagree?
