Why are blacks from the states so much different.

well, it could be because the color of a persons skin has very little to do with their personality.
American "blacks" are Americans...they just happen to have more melanin than some others. why would that make them fundamentally different than any other person that lives in America? maybe African black people just don't like Americans, but they just focus on the American blacks for some reason? some expectation of kinship or similarity that isn't there, for cultural reasons?

According to a good friend of mine who is Nigerian, it's a bit more than that.

It has a lot to do with the fact that they claim their African ancestry loudly, yet they butcher the history of it (what little if any they know) and come off as posers. For instance, most African American names have nothing to do with any African nation or history, yet they (African Americans) claim that they do.

The way they dress is also an issue. According to my friend, he assumes most African Americans got their "African dress code" from watching old 1970's Clint Eastwood movies.

Then there's the fact that the vast majority of African Americans can't even name 3 nations in Africa, or tell you anything about the continent at all, so their interest in the actual culture they claim to be from is entirely made up. It doesn't exist anywhere on the continent of Africa.

So, in a way (and I admit this is sort of crude) real African's dislike African Americans because they see them as posers - people who pretend to be something that they're not only not, but have absolutely no knowledge of at all.

I think the world of my friend. He's a police officer at a major university down town. I helped him with all his INS paperwork back in the day when he brought his wife over. They are in many ways completely different people from the typical African American you meet.

So you base your views on the saying of one Nigerian. I have family in Delta and Lagos they would disagree and call you on your bullshit. I'm black/brown and I get along quite well with Africans. Have also travelled to several countries in Africa. Never was I treated badly but was welcomed with open arms and tears. It seems like you're doing what some whites have been doing for centuries. Stirring discord among blacks to create a divide. White folks like you can be the fucking problem

Unfortunate that we cant have a civilized discussion/debate on an important topic without name calling and insults. I dont give a flyin flannigan fuck if you're brown black white or purple with green stripes. We're all, supposedly , intelligent people with our own opinions. Some smart-ass dude said once " I may not agree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it". He musta been a canadian ehbongsmilie

Damn you are an idiot. Can you follow a conversation. He never said he had a friend in Liberia. It was a Nigeria, in which case I have family members from and in Nigeria to counter his bullshit argument. The argument was not about his skin color but the bullshit bigoted views he place on Africans and blacks
The racists are you and your fucked up abusive father. Tell us again how you went to the black Doctor and thought you would start craving chicken and watermelon afterwards or how black people will never succeed with a name like Lacrisha or Obama.
STOP WITH THE PILL POPPING. it is fucking up what ever brain cells you have left

Please STFU. You are unable to follow conversations and it makes you come off as BatShitCrazy.
I called him out on his view point based on a conversation with ONE person from Nigeria. As I said I have FAMILY from the region who holds a different view point and I also speak from FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE.
and when did Taco Mac become black ? I guess this the age that everyone wants to be black or in your case have some black in them :hump: Tell us again how Snoop Dog is from Florida. another example of you talking on shit you are clueless about.

Monrovia Liberia was founded in 1822 for free slaves, The Liberian constitution mandated that all citizens be of African decent. I'm sure this was due to the past treatments by whites...I mean these were free slaves, so who would want to repeat history, BUT the new President Weah feels times have changed and wants to do away with the black requirement. Big difference still with the treatment of those not black in Liberia. No reported hangings of whites due to being white.

yeah that's South Africa and Zimbabwe
