  • @LGHHJHH What's up with this argument? Why are you going at her so hard? do you know her personally?

  • @twalk2008 He doesn't know me at all..I don't even know why he brought my looks up honestly.

  • @BlueHerself  if that Default picture is you...then you are attractive.....pretty....

  • @LGHHJHH Funny , your clown self is friend's with my other Youtube account! LOL. You friend requested me and now you're here talking crap about me for no reason? Pitiful..

  • @LGHHJHH to make yourself feel better. I feel sorry for you though, not only are you illiterate and dumb, you're insecure as hell. Getting numbers online? LMFAO! Omg, hilarious! Little boy..get a life. Why are you talking about my looks like a lil' bitch? Damn. Not even females do that sh!t! LMAO. I'll pray for your ugly ass, hating on my looks won't make you attractive, though..-Kanye Shrug-

WHAT A LOSER! I'm sorry if you don't like my opinion , but you're fugly as f_ck. You look doofy as hell with your ugly nose and teeth. Actually, I do have videos on YT not on this channel, sweetie I guarantee I look 10x better than you, hun. I'm sorry truth hurts. It's sad you had to bring up my looks

  • @BlueHerself

    Nationality is membership of a nation or sovereign state.

    Africa is not a country.

  • @Amaru4ever You're right, it's a continent - still not a race.

  • @BlueHerself

    Obviously.

  • You ignorant fool. You´re not African. Africans don´t consider you African. lol

  • @jampie06

    Depends. Some don't and some do.

  • @Amaru4ever WTF stop the BS and admit that the black community in the US are a bunch of self hating backstabbers. That´s why you want to be ``African`` . BTW rap is dead and fake. lol

  • @jampie06

    Its not B.S. those are the facts.

    I've met some people from Africa who cannot stand "blacks" who are descendants from slaves and other who embrace us.

    It has nothing to do with "wanting" to be African, I can't be anything else. That is what my ancestors were and I am their descendant. I just embrace it because it is part of my identity.

    I agree that rap is dead....but i don't see what that has to do with this line of discussion.

  • @Amaru4ever I think you´re kidding yourself, but that´s OK. Many Africans cannot stand black Americans because they see the criminal behavior and the black on black racism. That´s the truth. So have a nice day. :-))

  • @jampie06

    Your right some can't.

    But 2 of my closest 3 friends come from Cameroon and Nigeria respectively.

    :-)

    Most people figure out a way to get along.

  • @jampie06

    P.S. Why do you assume that I'm a "black" american, even though its obvious your knowledge of that community is...limited...at best

  • @Amaru4ever No, I speak the truth little nig LOL

  • @jampie06

    LOL

  • African=Slave

    American=Slave Master

    African=Neters/Gods

    American=Devils

    African=Victims

    American=Perpetrators

    How Can you Be Both?

  • u said that everyone is from africa. well at the time when these people were living the land mass they were on is called pangea, its better not to cast specific brands on people such as african or european because it is meaningless. we are all life! my race is life!

  • smart person, good videos.

  • @BlueHerself as far as I'M concerned, African is my Identification, first. Black/white isn't a race either.

  • @twalk2008 iam just American Iam from USA MY COUNTRY YOUR COUNTRY TO RIGHT

  • @TheWarriorchamp right.

  • good video

  • im white...your black...my cat is orange...no one cares that i am german and itallian...im just white...let it go man..let it go...do you live in africa...if not then you are american...i dont go around saying im german itallian...im american and the president is american...or do we have an african president...i hate when ppl of different races act as tho they are discriminated against but go ahead and do the same to others...

  • "Native" is basically a person that comes from the first peoples of a certain area.

    Native Americans aren't really native to North America , because we all originated in Africa.

    But since they were there first , they are the natives . My native homeland would probably be England , North America , and Ireland .

    Originally , we are all African. But in title , we are all not.

  • @Treyb3yond Most of the world is in the dark ages. & Europe is one of the Nations that plunged them into it.

  • Comment removed

  • @Treyb3yond : What are you talking about. Seems you are the real fuckin moron.

  • Comment removed

  • @Treyb3yond : What actions are Black people blaming on others. Sounds to me like you just are repeating the same dumb cliche statement used by racist whites who wish to erase the history of their people. You can't change history because you are bored with hearing about it. Again what actions are you talking about?

  • Comment removed

  • @Treyb3yond :O i am 11 years old and dont understand how u cud say that wud u like it if i sed that about america?

  • @Theblackbarbie698 I don't care about America. I don't swear my allegiance to countries like the idiot in this video.

  • @Treyb3yond Shit hole?, how did it become a shit hole, you underdeveloped it, raped the land, colinized it, and forced your ideoligy on the people you go by what your media shows you if its such a shit hole why continue to steal raw materials out of it? stop wacthing them old tarzan movies, read or go on the internet to find out about Africa for real.

  • @boots13100

    Me personally? you racist!

    Yup, aids and famine and corruption and eating rare wildlife and child abuse and racism in Africa is all whiteys fault. It's all because of what happened 300 years ago when we tried to civilise your asses.

    South Africa used to grow some of the finest produce in the world, but since the black man took over and started to murder everyone, the country is totally fucked. Crime through the roof.

    Black ghettos throughout the world: crime through the roof.

  • @Treyb3yond How can you be civilised when you bring poverty,disease, death ,and crime/corruption to Africans. to be civil is to be "peaceful" witch some of you faild to do. All OF AFRICA is still producing materials, But snakes like you who divide and corrupt Africans to fight and kill each other for your personal gains same in your ghettos/reservations you try to keep us in I doubt you will take this advice but look up How Europe underdeveloped Africa by Walter Rodney or King Leopolds Ghost.

  • @boots13100 Yup, keep on blaming the "white devil" but know this: place the blame, lose your power.

    Black people have become experts at finger pointing, thus solving none of their own problems.

    Your power can only be regained after you take responsibility for your own actions. Sure, white people are not blameless, of course.

    But think on this: black people are also far from blameless also.

    Regain your power and take action for yourself.

  • @boots13100Got a question for you: how much aid do black and Asian countries send to Africa compared to white countries?

    How much immigration and accommodation do Asian and black countries have compared to white countries?

    Who is more tolerant? Iran? Korea or China? African countries? (in the Congo if a white person is seen in certain areas they'll be shot and robbed/raped).

    This is all whiteys fault? wake the fuck up man and smell the shit you shovel in.

  • @easy349 I guess some people dislike the truth....your loss.

  • @Treyb3yond

    You mad?

  • @Amaru4ever Nope. I'm not the one who goes around spouting off about my "roots" all the time like its some kind of secret club. Grow the fuck up.

  • @Treyb3yond

    "Grow the fuck up"

    Yea...you mad lol

  • @Amaru4ever Learn English then use it you fucking rat.

  • @Treyb3yond

    I know how to speak that European language very well.

    I am a H. sapien not a rodent :)

  • @Amaru4ever Europe gave you the life you are accustom to. If you think Africa is so fantastic, it's simple, go live there.

    See how you get on.

  • @Treyb3yond

    The living conditions there are not fantastic overall, that is the truth.

    Ironically, Europe is the reason for that. :)

  • @Amaru4ever That's right, blame whitey. It's all our fault that blacks are one of the only races in the world who are slave traders, and actually INVENTED it. It's all our fault south Africa has gone to shit since the whites were murdered out of there. It's all out fault the crops won't grow due to infertile land and the billions in aid we send over to help. It's all our fault black people enjoy western society with more rights than they do in their homeland.

    You are prejudice and yes, RACIST.

  • @Treyb3yond

    I'm referring to the "Colonization" of the African continent. I'm not sure if you are familiar with this event but at one time every present day African nation was under the unwanted control of a European nation. The only nations that weren't were Liberia and Ethiopia. Ethiopia was able to fight off the Italians and nobody wanted to mess with Liberia because of its connection to the U.S.

  • @Amaru4ever Question: Why don't ignorant people like yourself ever have a pop at the Asians for "enslaving your race"?

    Every hear about the Ottoman empire? ever wonder why there are so many muslim countries in Africa?

    No. It's all about the anti white brigade with you. It's all about being angry with the countries you see as "the enemy"

    I got some advice: live your life and forget this nonsense, because guess what? All races are racist. Or did you think a white man doesn't get abuse in China?

  • @Treyb3yond

    "Colonization" destroyed the functional governments of the various nation-states, made new boundaries w/o the consent of the people who had to live there, ruined millions and millions of lives and robbed the continent of some of its abundant resourse.

    The results are you have people living in nations they did not create. Remember decolonization only happened after WWII b/c the European powers beat each other half to death. So we are talking less approx 60 years ago.

  • @Treyb3yond

    Through in a couple corrupt leaders and a few puppet governments and it is easily to understand why the African continent looks the way it looks today.

    Don't get me wrong, alot of nations are on the rise but they too had to overcome these initial burdens.

    I mentioned nothing of enslavement so I'm not sure where you are getting that from. Don't come at me with your "guilt". I only blame those involved. You obviously were not born yet so you are not to blame. Stop worrying

  • @Amaru4ever That's fair enough. I'm just a man, like you. I was born. I didn't choose my colour. I'll just make the best of my life and try to help others on my way.

    That's all anyone can do.

  • @Treyb3yond

    Yep thats all you can do

  • @Treyb3yond He´s quiet now. You shut him up good. :-))

  • @Treyb3yond Tell that ignorant, self hating fool. I think he has a degree in BS.

  • im african:)

    i really am, im from east africa, my ancestors originally came from Ethiopia

  • Africa wasn't called Africa it was called Asia Pangea was called Asia

  • i am african and i love the fact that you've educated yourself and researched. it pains me to see African Americans deny their ancestry as if its dirty to be african. arrogance kills. and i respectively thank you for taking your time to educate those who refuse to pick up a book.

  • Comment removed

  • yes, your correct, you have an african background. you can read about all the studys you want but according to our culture in america, we are all considered americans. but not black people, black people demand to be profiled as african americans, well no thats bullshit, unless you were born in africa, your just black, my ancestors are from italy, shouldnt i be called an itailian american, no because i believe in civil rights

  • Whether you like it or not some people are proud of their roots. My mom is a 3rd generation American yet still considers herself Italian-American as do many people in the NY area.

    No one is denying that we are not American citizens. Some people just want to assert their individuality.

  • Its funny how whites took an adjective like negro & made it a noun, something as stupid as Negroid race is not used by science to explain Afrikans. If you check the history of Afrikans then you would see that we had very strong positive roles on this planet. Whites say you have no history but yet Queen Charlotte was a part of the Portuguese royal family, Queen of England great x5 grandmother of Queen Elizabeth, we ruled Spain,

    all of Africa, created Egypt, built the first Navy, Armies, nations.

  • I hate people who try to separate themselves from Africa, that is the stupidest thing on the planet to me. If Afrika was back on top then everybody including whites would be proud to shout I'm Afrikan to the high heavens but since we are having problems because of the whites sucking up everything and not give back to it, we have sided with them, no my bad those of you who are not Afrikans because I'm a hardcore Afrikan , born to Afrikans who were brought to amerikkka against their will.

  • Youre right, I made a trouble mistake. I hate my people did such dreadful things to him and we should have been killed for such treachery, I want to be saved so I can have a life everlasting. Please forgive me when I say take that white ass Jesus of yours and that fake religion and shove it up your ass, all in your ass. I'm Afrikan I don't obey the god of some lazy fucks who were born of me. Ra will take care of you and those dirty arab dick heads. I don't need you to resell me what was ours man

  • Ra fathered the Raphiam/nephilim They were the offspring of Ra a fallen angel. Satan another fallen angel fathered the serpent race. See black Pharaohs with "serpents" on their heads to see what the serpent seed race looked like. Lucifer = Cherub = Sphinx = Black

  • Again you are right we are the voodoo kings; we bring hell fire and damnation down on the earth. We are the devils of the fiery pits of hell. I am a child of Ra with a message, Jesus is a fake hero created to control a population of people, his birth was taken from the very people your bible says your god drowned in the Red sea, yet another story derived from my people who drove the Tamahu into the sea. My Afrikan family loves the Creator more than you could ever fathom. Jesus/Kal-El myth

  • There is no such thing as an African American, like there is no such thing as a nigger, negro, niggra, and all the stupid names tagged on to Afrikans. Whites think they have the authority to tag our race when we are the originals on this planet & indigenous to Afrika. As long as you allow them to say what they want you to be, then you are a nigger in every sense of their meaning. If you did not found the land by name and have a equal share in the land then you are not of the land its that simple

  • I do believe all black people are African and that life did begin there...but there are some other people that to this day, I can't figure out where their group came from for them to bring destruction every where they show up in history...I am positive they are not African

  • Wow...Negro you are brain-washed.....

  • The first Humans were black and come from Africa.See Cheik Anta Diop.

  • One of my teachers told me nigger means salve so all niggers where slaves wow shockinh if u think about. go up to a niggr tell them to go pick up ur shit ur crap ur sump from the toilet and put it on there face. Ohh and another thing how on earth do we have black shit here there black they steal stuff they bombed 9/11 and there eating all out CHICKEN...

  • yea i love this video and your eyebrowns lol both my parents are ghanaian and im proud!! I have a friend who is jamaican and cuban i told her she had african in her and she screamed i found this really offensive but i composed myself some people just dont want to associate themselves with africa

  • This is regardless of your colour because we all have a responsibility to make sure that the whole human race moves forward equally or at least balanced.when wealth is more balnced there will be a calmer better world with no welfare dependents and so called '3rd world'.Join sites like KIVA and invest in African business communities for as little as 25$.This is the only way we can defeate these greedy war mongers and survive as a Human race.

  • The second thing to do is boycott every company/organization that exploit people of darker skin,starting from your neighbourhoods to the high street.Buy mixtapes and indepedent albums not the mainstream,don't join the army or even some churches.Darker skinned folks shell out trillions from their pockets but don't gain anything because other communities offer each other opportunities.Jews high jews it is not a secret.KEEP THAT MONEY IN YOUR POCKET or spend it on your those who care about you.

  • I personally think African image has been so damged that a lot of people will rather hang themselves than to associate with the motherland. Anyone that wants a change,has to look for positive imagery and news about the continent,like for example the African Union is on its way to create a super country like china and India and spread them.The western media will never share this because a lot of folks will know that opportunities are booming in the motherland.

  • right on bruv

  • In order to be African American, you must be born in Africa and then immigrate to America and become and American Citizen. Black folks who were born in America and have no African citizenship are NOT AFRICAN AMERICANS, It is as simple as that. They are Americans! It would be like me calling myself an Irish Candadian because I have an Irish Grandfather...WRONG. I was born in Canada so I am Canadian and nothing more. The fact that so many blacks insist on this title is the reason racism continues.

  • "The fact that so many blacks insist on this title is the reason racism continues..."

    No it's not and you can keep you're segmented thinking to yourself. Stay Irish...in CANADA...

  • I am not Irish, I am Canadian......as I explained already.

    If you are black and born in America, you are American and not African American.

    Why you insist on being seperate from the rest of the Americans in your country is ignorance at its best.

    Black people are constantly complaining about RACISM, when at the same time they proudly seperate themselves from everyone else. Have you not realized that it is this seperation that causes the Racism. Pure Equality stomps out racism.

  • 1)

    LOL! You're in my history & don't even know about your own, let alone others. The reason "black" people were called black is directly related to slavery & later colonialism. The reason "white" people, whose skin tone DOES NOT NOR HAS EVER MATCHED THE COLOR OF THIS BACKGROUND call themselves "white" is due to the social construction involving "white" supremacy which was created to show who would & wouldn't benefit from society. "White" people are primarily EUROPEANS of various sorts whose...

  • 2)...grand-parents MIGRATED from Europe into the U.S. When they were in Europe, they were French, British, Scottish, Irish, German, etc. However, once the 'tired, poor, hungry..." EUROPEANS passed through Ellis Island...they became "white". So it is the Europeans...your cousins...who you need to consult about the renaming of people. They called the Native Americans "Indians", the African people from a multitude of cultures, languages, complexions, etc... "black" & themselves "white".

  • 3)"Black people are- complaining about RACISM-at the same time they-seperate themselves from everyone... "

    You're blind. African-Am have ALWAYS tried to fit N2 this faceless cess-pool of "white" Am. AfrAm have bleached their skin, str8end their hair after dying it blonde, worn blue contacts, dated others,PURCHASED homes in "white"suburbs, attended "white" colleges, completely disassociated themselves from ANYTHING AFRICAN & ARE STILL REGARDED AS THE N-WORD by YOUR cousins, the "white" people.

  • 4)"Pure Equality stomps out racism."

    I agree with this statement. Yet, your cousins, the "white" ppl don't want pure equality. Pure equality would BEGIN with returning the land & resources that have been stolen & exploited by your cousins to the decendants of the ppl that built this nation as well as the original owners of the land (I'm both AFRICAN & Native American). It would mean burying the lynching "souvenirs" they have inside their homes & acknowledging the TRUTH of their own history.

  • You can't say that all white people don't want pure equality.....There are large groups of people within every culture that do not want pure Equality including the Black Community.

    Now you say you are both African and Native American....well that is a handful. It means you would have had to be born an indian in the Uniteds States, moved to Africa and gotten an African Citizenship and then held a duel citizenship?

    My guess is tha tyou are just an American and nothing more.

  • "You can't say that all white people don't want pure equality"

    Obviously, I can & just did say it AND provided the facts to support my statement. It's you who CAN'T handle the truth.

    As far as the rest of your comment (LOL), you're trying so hard to be right but you appear more incorrect as time progresses. YOU revealed your IRISH ancestry (bloodlines)in your comment pertaining to your CANDIAN citizenship(political affiliation). YOU don't have CANADIAN bloodlines...YOU'RE IRISH...

  • Then by stating that all white people don't want pure equality is your PROUD admittance that you are a Racist that bases their beliefs on Hatred.

    You are no better than a member of the KKK with the satement you made. How sad. Your Pride is what destroys you.

    Did you ever read the scripture where God Proclaims that He Despises Pride almost more than any other sin.

    Pride is a disgusting emotion that destroys everything in its path.

  • Where have I've been racist? Prove it please! Show me where I've called someone a derogatory name, show me where I've even used PROFANITY!!! Please prove it, like I proved to you that the majority of "white" people (if you call yourself white, then you're racist-BTW) don't want pure equality with the people they've exploited generationally. Don't just randomly toss words around based upon your emotions because you don't like what I said. Show FACTS!

  • LadyLibraNMore you wrote all crap around this channel. Too bad i don't give 1 cent about your monkey stinky face. You are a fat black bitch you know that? So would you suck my cock for 2 cents?

  • LOL! You're talking down about me & Africans in general...LOL! Anyway, it won't be long before you realize that your "white" friends think nothing more of you than they do of me. I wish I could be there to see your face when they begin to make their Asian "jokes". LOL!

  • iAM AFRiCAN!! WOOH..

  • CindyWRONG: before I delete your cynical and ignorant comment, lets be FAIR.

    According to your default picture(unless it's fake or not you) you're asian.

    The "Negative Connotations" of your physical attributes are catastrophic enough to call in the National Guard, or for you to "throw in the White Flag"(surrender of course)

    So when you mention Chimp, or Monkey like some repetitive statement that your grandmother used, what do racist humans call you?

    should I name a few?

  • "The entire world screams monkey sounds even at football players on great matches..."

    I've seen video footage of Euro football (soccer) matches where this has occurred. It doesn't surprise me considering that monkeys have pale skin, hairy bodies, str8 hair, thin lips & flat buttocks. Euro- based science books say that the chimp you evolved from has 99% of YOUR DNA...additionally, some of you are even born with TAILS. So naturally, when your cousins are excited, they make monkey sounds...

  • You're TALKING a LOT of garbage but that's cool...Talk is CHEAP...

    I challenge you to:

    1)Be unarmed

    2) Repeat all of this to the face of an unarmed person of African descent that is of your same gender...

    *without any witnesses

    * without any police nearby

    *without any friends to help you out of the beat-down that you're going to receive...

    3)Live to tell about it...

  • great video

  • I'm Brazilian.

  • In fact everytime we went against the most high we were taken captive as slaves. However because of the cruelty received. Over the centuries the most high will send his son to judge them.

    Bottom Line. is you need to do some research yourself before you dismiss the fact you are Israelite. Also check the blessings/curses Duet 28.

    I used to say the same as you and I came across the truth only about three months ago. And now everything even when scripture is quoted I must read it for myself.Peace

  • Not forgetting black is a colour, which has negative connotations which attack you subconcious.

    Also that sciencie you are mentioning is european science.

    Also just because you were kidnapped out of the land mass Africa doesn't make you a so called African (hamite).

    You need to do some research 70 AD Jerusalem was over run by the romans. Pure raping murder and pilaging. Millions of us fled into Africa. Some to Ethiopia northern Aftri and west Africa where we stayed for centuries.

  • I used to say that and to certain extent you are right. Just because I was born in England London doesn't make me what people percieve as a typical english man (brown skinned).

    furthermore when you define yourself as african you are defining yourself using your oppressors descriptions without knowing.

    The word American comes from a european. The word African comes from a european.

    Israelite, Hamite, Edomite etc.... I words labels of the most high. And are blood lines. not boarders.

  • omg u spk sense and ur gorgeous

  • Comment removed

  • When all the technical rebuttals about Africa being Pangaea @ the time of original man (Man of color/ Melanin /Black meaning dont burn up in the Sun).Our ancestry, history and culture is what makes you who you are! You are now sociably American but of AFRICA! Quit denying who U are bcause you've been brainwashed to believe that U have no ties or bounty or entitlement to A LAND that's richest in NATURAL RESOURCES & Beauty! You've been bamboozled & given Donuts, BET, & Fried chicken for your GOLD!

  • Comment removed

  • YAAY YAYAYAYAYAYAY YOU DID RESEARCH YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY but ur still ignorant.... Unless you were born in Africa and moved to the US YOU ARE NOT AFRICAN AMERICAN - if u were born here in the US you are AMERICAN - and the whole theory about us first existing as Humanoids is true then there was no Africa - Africa is a continent - it is a dislocated solidarily place land mass - Pangaea was a solid mass where all land was connected

  • @mexcandiesel: what an idiot...

    what was said in the video stands correct.

    African American it is.

    you mentioned *pangea*? THAT VAIDATES MY POINT EVEN MORE!

  • BLACKS are from sub saharan africa, do not classify any othe race with my motherland

  • everyone's motherland.

  • wrong, wen u hear everyone comes from africa is a THEORY. thy jut found some bones in gerogia (the country) of the same human like creatures found in africa. no ones knows for sure

  • everyone's motherland again. Everyone is from somewhere on this earth. Bones have been found other areas as well, YEARS and location, (geography and archeology) anthropology points towards a center area during the times of pangea. about 200,000 years ago what we consider humans was in the area of East Africa. It's pretty close to accurate.

  • Yes we are all african by origyn , but after humanity spread out, there were different cultures imfluence by weather and land conditions more than any thing else, so

    now we are living in a world where whites are from European descend and blacks are from africa descend, and I can beleive that african natives are more racist by far towards african american than white people themself. the worst racist experiences I had ever have has been by other africans. (native Africans)

  • @panamanubian : Just a note. Some one of the same race cannot be racist towards that same race. Please dont use words incorrectly. & if you think Africans in Africa are more "racist" towards African Americans than whites you are incredibly dumb deaf & blind. In fact you are insane. Just another Nigger keeping hate & separation amongst ourselves. U are no better than the few ignorant Africans you encountered. get educated. travel to Africa.

  • The real truth is alot of black americans dont know a thing about Africa, in my eyes they are just darker americans which they should be. Now me i am an african, my parents are african, i was born in africa, i speak an african language, but we moved to usa so i can claim the african american langauge. But to be specific i use my native country more so i just say Somali American.

  • im african american. my dad is american and my mummy is zambiain/african.i agree with you. if black americans are african americans, then im an asian-irish-native american-french-american-germa­n-african. (if you know what i mean). most black americans barely know a hint about their african culture.ever since i started school, people would ask me "when you lived there, did you run around naked. did you live in huts?did you shave your hair off?were you starving?" i still get these ?s...

  • and im 13. and the thing is, when "african americans" were little, they would make fun of africans like saying african booty scratcher but they get offended if a white person calls them black.i mean, would you prefer chocolate? in that case, white ppl should be called apricot or peach.its most irratating when they call themselves african americas when they dont know anything about africa,and make fun of it. so im just agreeing with you. this is coming from a TRUE AFRICAN AMERICAN

  • I agree with you but i could sense a lil hostility, they are still our bros here in america. They are lost cousins. PS. i used to get the african booty scratcher line too.

  • I feel somewhat stupid because I confused the meaning of race and nationality. My nationality is American , but I am African. So I will apologize, but trust me I am hardly ever wrong. So you probably will not see another one of these

  • Blackboy: I'm wrong at least *three times a day, but in *one hour, I can be right every minute...

    there's nothing wrong with being wrong, it a *precursor* to being right.

    But like Dainathian phrase it "saying that everyone is *african is like saying everyone is *human" that's my overall point.

  • well, we may as well just go ALLLL the way back and call ourselves apes. Naturally, I can't be offending people on here who claim everyone is African, since in doing so, you are automatically acknowledging evolution. Or if the ape term, bothers you, than it would only make sense for you to simply call yourself "human". Of course, everyone else is human so what would be the point. And since your point is that we are ALL African.... then what would be the point of referring to yourself as so?

  • i just randomly picked an occupation man...I could have said a Florist...priest might of bin better though.

  • Dainathian:I was just pickin' with you about the COPS.

    Generally, I can't stand them, but I know some good policemen too.

  • lol!

    no worries man, wasn't taken in offence.

  • Point is, it ALL depends on who is making the classification. A teacher? A Cop? The President? An Anthropologist...???

  • it doesn't need to be a damn COP!

  • That's how life on earth grows. Mutating DNA to allow for different physical traits, which in turn gives rise to new sub-species, and then new species, new genus, and so on.

    twalk2008 uses dogs as an example, which is good. We can't call them all dogs with no differences, that wouldn't be accurate. The Canine has many sub-species. This is important for the obvious differences between say a Jack Russel and an Irish Wolf Hound.

    Also, this isn't supposed to be negative, i'm just talkin science.

  • Dainathian, I agree. Overall good assessment.

    digestive tract in most of the Japanese population is different possibly due to genetics(polymorphism, sp?) and dietary routine over generations.

  • yup, cuisine, another subtle diference in Humans.

    I love my Japanese friends for it, three glasses of wine and BAM, see'ya under the table guys!

  • Saying that everyone is African is the exact same as saying everyone is human. It's far too general of a discription. Both correct, but HUMANS not only have methods of differntiating each other such as languages, cultures, cuisine...etc, but also the real physical differences that have evolved since the human species left Arica: Skin color, bone structure, even the digestive systems are different - Japanese, they lack an enzyme in the stomach which breaks down alcohol causing quick enebriation.

  • I have alot of African people in my life in London UK. ALL of them associate African Americans as AFRICAN.

  • i was born in Amerca so I am not african. My ancestors are African not me.

  • blackboy9321: you were born in 93 right?

    If a pedigree of female pits where pregnant in america and was shipped to Mars, later had puppies, are the pups still a pit bull?

    You were born in America, but it doesn't change your DNA.

  • First I am not a dog so a huuman and a pitbull are incomparable.

    Second we do not base a dogs breed off where they were born but we do for humans.

    If we are going to say I am African based of DNA, then I am mixed because I have all nationalities in me if you go back far enough. I am American not African, to be African you have to be of that culture not of that ancestry.

  • btw... there is no scientific definition or acceptance of the idea of "race". It is purely a social construct. People skin tones and colors have adapted to different environments. That's all. There is no such thing... in the world of science and anthropology... as race.

  • Wrong. Science doesn't recognize the term Race in it's literal form. The classification that would be equivalent is a SUB-SPECIES, however the reason it isn't used on humans is obvious i think : it alone can have very damaging affects on how humans interact and percieve each other.

    The use of the Dog comparison is legitimate. We both are animals, we both have "sub-species" a.k.a. "races" and these S.Sp. can interbreed without any problems.

    At the core, we are very similar creatures.

  • Dainathian, 4lclover66 lost me when he/she said that Martin Luther king was "White" and Malcolm X was in the KKK??

  • ...i don't get that either. Just have to wait till he/she is back on then ask.

    there is the possability that it was said just to provoke a slander-match. A LOT of ppl do that and I just stop talking to them.

  • i'm sure Asian pple who were born in America still consider themselves Asian right? be proud of who are my man...therez nothin wrong with being African

  • exactly shingintheduke! one of the best comments on this post....

  • never said there is something worng with being African

  • That's a ridiculous comparison. Asian Americans are recent immigrants with a large percentage of them being first generation. They still have parents or actual relatives in their countries. Once their families have been here several hundred years they sure as hell won't be calling themselves Asian.

  • I still find comparing dogs and humans ridiculous

  • and you compare this man to a dog?? My god.

  • species is the comparison.

  • dogs and humans are not the same species

  • blackboy: I Never said that humans and dogs are the same species. I made a *correlation*

    of two different species and compared procreation, location.

  • Before I suggested africans never locate to America if they are being ridiculed like this. Africans are respected in the UK...good jobs..pretty hairstyles..pretty complexions. Do u recommend any books TWALK2008, im gonna start wising up, ive started going to black debate groups and these issues come up i need more knowledge to answer the questions

  • I have plenty of books to recommend. when I get time, I will send you an email strictlystarlight....

  • I am from Kushtic

  • This is TRUE!

  • Prior to the emergence of the Mongoloid people, China was dominated by people of the African continent. These people arrived to China from West Africa, through the great civilizations in North Africa known as Khem and Kush.Â

    The Chinese population were of African origin, several areas of study was focused on.The first area of study was based on scientific evidence and reports of various recent genetic experiments.

  • I know everyone's ancestors descended from Africa but it saddens me when I think of how hard it is for black people in America to directly trace which area in Africa that they are from.

    I want to call myself African, but Africa is a HUGE!

    Where is my African american family from?

  • Africa is huge, but African got devided up into what it looks like now when Europeans colonized Africa....before it was a huge land mass with different tribes....We know we came from Africa and that's what important....

  • We shouldn't be ashamed of being the original people from a big continent that gave birth to civilisation.

    Come on African people or the sons and daughters of Motherly Africana, if we are so ashamed of coming from Africa, then we are ashamed of ourselves.

    Like Brother Malcolm said"In hating Africa and in hating Africans, then we end up hating ourselves".

  • heard that a million times and it is still found wanting. founding father and u.s president john adams was indeed born in kenya. but there is know record of him or any one else identifying him as african. as a matter of FACT if he had melanin in his skin he wouldnt have been able to come the u.s. unless it was thru the forced labor system enacted at his time

  • Give me a f'ing break. What, you just make up your own history as you talk?? Well, in that case, I'll just state right here that MLK was actually a white Irishman (little known fact, but true) and that Malcolm X was a Grand Dragon in the KKK (nobody wants to talk about that though... history is so confusing and painful ya know???). Oh, and Abraham Lincoln was born in Russia (another little known fact.)

    Seriously, Adams was born in Quincy Massachusetts. Last I checked that wasn't in Africa.

  • 4lclover:people just say anything. especially kooky people.

  • ...HA! I prefer eccentric :)

  • lol!

  • We all WERE African, unless you happened to be born there or your parents are from there.

    I'm not African, my ancestry takes me back to Africa but for customs, nationality, culture I'm not even close to be called African!
