Africans can suck my dick and drink my sperm if they are starving.
How the fuck do YOU cause so much suffering to my people and then copy the culture WE created???
what’s this about abos? thought that was a down under thing.
Jack Brown
ADOS means African/American Descendant Of Slaves. It's a movement created by I think Yvette Carnell to make distinctions between us and Black Africans, because we are not the same and don't want to be confused with these people just because of a shared skin color.

what the fuck, there are different flavors of niggers now? oh shit

africa is poor as shit not as much opportunity to promote their music or record it

african culture and pride is really beautiful. the fact that black americans call themselves "african-americans'' is insulting. youre as african-american as some guy from new york is italian-american

Why are most of these genres played and recorded with instruments/devices made by the white man? Does that mean black people are """"stealing"""" from our white culture? Also, I hope you like kaki because jeans were invented by a white german-american guy. Maybe we should just not be faggots and just be happy and "share" so that we don't contribute further to the polarization of today.

>Africans sell us to the White man
Bruh those were Arab slave dealers you retard. don't tell me you actually bought the Alt-Right lies that it was black tribal people that were behind the slave trade.
Blake Thomas
Source? Genuinely interested. Pretty sure the Arab slave dealers were way before this
Liam Cook
this isnt their business.
Joseph Roberts
you’re confusing 2 very different slave trades. funnily enough the alt-right loves to bring up the arab slave trade as a counterargument against the african slave trade.
Brandon Walker
Can't steal from a culture, you can only appropriate. "Jesus Christ is my Nigga" is cultural appropriation, for example.

>youre as african-american as some guy from new york is italian-american Yeah, what's your point? They're both more American than anything else, culturally.
Cameron Kelly
"Cultural appropriation" is bullshit. Cultures can and will take influence from each other, no matter if it's jokingly or serious.
Jonathan Green
pop? are you serious? you think the Jewish songwriters making tin pan alley hits were black? most of those other genres had many different races on the ground floor of their creation. the fact black people were there doesn't mean they monolithically deserve complete credit. if any other race had that attitude, you would call it "neoimperialist"or something.
Brayden Lopez
There is Black American culture, white American culture, Asian American culture, Mexican American culture, all of the ethnic subdivisions have cultures within American culture. They are not subcultures of American culture either, because they are not mainly "American" in their focus. Only "white" culture is like that, and of course it's the most phony and fraudulent of them all.

Hello reactionary. You seem to think I give a shit what your opinion on this matter of fact is. I don't.
Nathan Robinson
Is it a pity contest? They have AIDS, constant wars, ebola, malaria, starvation, and much more. You're not the only one suffering my guy
i think both terms (african-american and italian-american) are completely fucking stupid. if your great-great-grandfather came from italy you're not italian-american, you're american. if your great-great-whatever came as a slave from ghana, you're not african-american, you're american.you can call yourself black american, or coloured american, but the term african-american pisses me off. they have nothing to do culturally to actual africans,
Jason Sanchez
I'm well-versed in history. West Africans had wars between each others and would often held captives after the fighting. Then they would enslave or sell the captives they captured in the exchange of guns to the Europeans. Look up Dahomey, Oyo and Ashanti people, they were the main slave traders on the Atlantic Coast and often traded with people like the Dutch, Anglo-Saxon and Portuguese.
The Arab slave traders you are talking about worked mainly on the other side of the continent, in Eastern Africa. But even in Eastern Africa it was Africans like the Swahili and Somalis responsible for trading with the Arabs in the first place.
If your culture is so beautiful then why do you always copy Black American and Carribean culture. Look at Nigerian music, Davido and Wizkid are just copying dancehall while putting it under the "Afrobeats" label, and Fela Kuti was literally just copying James Brown.
This why I like to go on Yea Forums, I get to see White people's true nature with no hypocrisy, because IRL you would have never told me this to my face.

Why do black people try to claim wrongs done to """""""""""""""""them""""""""""""""""" when """""""""""""""""they""""""""""""""""" are a generation so far removed from the problem?
Benjamin Bennett
>>*sets people on fire* Like White people did to us with lynching? You burned millions of our people alive, as well as burned the entirety of Black Wall Streets, solely because of jealousy. You think we forgot? As much as I don't like Africans, Whites made us suffer just as much, but karma/divine punishment is coming to your house cracker. Western Europe is going to suffer so much in the future, you will not understand what will come to you.
Jim Crow wasn't that long ago. There were still massive anti-Black lynching not too long ago. We are still discriminated against to this day.

Actually that was a very German phenomenon, the way that all happened. They killed lots of white people who opposed the ascendance of the pseudoscientific "Aryan race" in general.

It's almost as if culture is separate to skin colour. It's almost as if History is separate to skin colour.
On a side note what's your heritage? I asked before but no response,
Why not repatriate or emigrate? If you care so much about your history and beliefs of course.
>implying you'd have any of those genres without African rhythm
Landon Cooper
You never asked that of me, but my heritage is European all the way back, aside from my great-great-great grandmother, who was a full-blooded Native American.
Jace Torres
>white people need to fix our problems Why not fix it as a society? There are no slave owners alive today to fix what they've done.
Angel Cooper
Listen, cracker, I can't repatriate or emigrate because my culture is now deeply rooted into American culture. I won't go to Africa because I don't like Africans and I don't understand them or their culture. So I have nothing to go outside of the New World. I was thinking about living in Cuba when I will have a stable income, but that's for the future. For the vast majority of Black Americans, we have nowhere to go outside of the USA.
But we can make a deal. You give us the territories surrounding and including Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina, and let us create an independent nation from the USA for our people. Are you ok with this? And please, don't start to bomb it after like you did with Black Wall Street.
Ethan Ross
can I as an Australian demand some sort of fixing for sending me to this hell hole?

Pretty sure your family must have chosen to go there, unless you're the offspring of convicts, in which case, my hands are tied. Your granddaddy probably shouldn't have committed such an egregious felony.
Andrew Baker
We don't need any ethnonationalism, we need socialism and seizing the means of production
Nathaniel Johnson
Why can you not live in another country if you want to? What makes it harder for an African-American to emigrate? If you want changes, make changes. Nobody's amking you live in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. If you want to make an independent nation from the USA, good luck and godspeed, but I think the problems need to be fixed instead. Part of that is how black people in the USA today lives in the past. which is understandable, yes, but it's time to look forward
Daniel Bailey
Fuck off. that shit doesn't work in the long-run. It's too expensive for the US due to how the country is built as well as available resources. Socialism or Social Democracy hardly works over here in Norway. How the fuck do you expect it to work in the US?
Kayden Rogers
>give us a massive fucking amount of land for our relatively tiny percent of US population get a brain in your blackass homie

>I don't want to live in Africa because it is a shithole.
You can actually do what ever you want. Vast majority of black Americans have nowhere to go because they live in poverty and quite literally cannot leave, but blaming on your culture being rooted in America is laughable, ta.
Jaxson Cruz
It works effortlessly in Norway. The Labor Party really did a lot of good for you guys. Hope they come back into power soon and fix everything again. Christian Democrats aren't so bad but the Labor folks know what's up.
Jace Morales
Do you live in Norway too? Because you probably don't see it form the side I do. There's constant worrying, people easily abusing the system all the time and even politicians move overseas to avoid paying taxes themselves. It's only going to work for another little while.
James Long
Afrobeat isn't "just funk". Funk was an influence but so was high-life, fuji, Yoruba and Fante music.
And stop acting like Africans didn't suffer either. If you ever listened to a song by Fela Kuti that wasn't about women you know that they did.
Also stop using "we", "us" etc... You realize that a lot of African Americans are descended from groups that sold slaves too right? I think notably about the Yoruba, the ethnic group of Fela Kuti, that is one of the group that was the most present in the plantations of the Americas.
Gavin Morgan
The news in the US use our example as a success story to gain political success, but I can promise you guys that it's not going to work.
Alexander Russell
Pure paranoia. Republicans in America say the same thing about social security. It's not going to happen. To think you can just "run out" of money for that kind of thing betrays a simple lack of understanding about how money on that scale works.
Daniel Rivera
This is also true, but a cracker wouldn't understand that, so I had to give another example. If I start to talk about poverty crackers are going to say that I'm doing a "pity contest"
We would be much more if it wasn't for US-sponsored programs like Planned Parenthood that are in reality just ethnic replacement in disguise. Blacks make up 12% of the population, but 35% of the abortions in America. Are we being targeted? Isn't that genocide? We are the only minority in America that is on the decline in population. If the current trend continues, by 2038 the black vote will be insignificant. Did you know that the founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was a devout racist who created the Negro Project designed to sterilize unknowing black women and others she deemed as undesirables of society? The founder of Planned Parenthood said, "Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated." Is her vision being fulfilled today?
Mason Harris
Social Democracy in Norway is going to be insufficient because it's expensive to maintain free health care, way too many people abusing the system, free education etc. Of course, I enjoy it as long as it lasts, but I don't believe in it at all and it's never going to work in America
Hudson Cox
My grandparents are British. So jokes on me but still, British people created this mess, give reparations.
Landon Garcia
Giving reparations for something you've never done to a group who's never experienced what's happened is a waste of money. In the end, it's been bad for everybody. Following this logic, the whole world would be bankrupt because people keep fucking each other over.
Aaron Roberts
Directly, that is
Carter Foster
>Afrobeat isn't "just funk". Funk was an influence but so was high-life, fuji, Yoruba and Fante music. Come on.
This is just a cheap and bad mixture of jazz and funk.
