Taking a chit for a few minutes every day was recommended by my dr.

She's like the only half Somali I've seen that retained Somali featuresThat grown ass woman is going to play a girl who was born in 2006
They could've used Alisha who actually have somali background(and is young)

You know this is a biopic right? Of Ifrah Ahmed? Why would a half cadaan girl play a full Somali dark skinned woman for? Born in 2006 kulaha, Stop making up stories.That grown ass woman is going to play a girl who was born in 2006

Because Ifrah herself wanted Aja to play the role.Why would an AA woman who isn't even half Somali play a Somali woman?
Anyway as I said I don't care about the casting in this film I'm worried about the story.

It’s a Biopic, You do know that? Why in the hell would that half cadaan girl play Ifrah, When she doesn’t even resemble her skin tone wise?
Aja resembles Ifrah more than Alisha does.

Now you’re mad that Aja got casted? Foh with your faux outrage.
Except for the nose, Her skin tone and cheek bones are similar to a normal Somali woman you see in the streets of Xamar. I would pass Alisha boe with a Hijab on as a Somali, Put without it she looks like a average mixed girl to me. She is definitely not darker than native somalis. Most Somalis are a shade of brown to dark skin.Unlike most mixed raced Somalis which stand out, she could blend in (minus the nose). She's even darker than some full-blooded Somalis. She would pass while the AA woman would not. We have plenty of model chicks. I'm sure they could have recruited from there. Plus, they should be familiar with our aesthetic. These are Yahuds after all (producers and directors). A tad smarter than the average cadaan. However, they probably have an agenda (as always).
Because, Liya Kebede is literally Amhar, They are Semites not Cushites. Kebede is a Amhar surname. I never said we have a connection to West Africans, I am saying why get outraged now when so many non Somalis have played Somali roles over the years?Liya Kebede is technically the same race. From a Cushitic bloodline/linguistic substratum. Even closer to us genetically than Alisha.Why would we be annoyed? What connection do we have to West Africa?

Even Ifrah herself doesn’t get the outrage.
Somalis come in various shades. And I've met unmixed Somalis that are paler (they are in the minority). I don't think you're familiar with the fact that Habeshis are predominately Agew (Cushitic) despite their linguistic shift to a Proto-Sabean language slightly over 2000 years ago. They have a nominal Semetic admixture. Somalis are the purest Cushites though, Alx.

@sophisticate
Don’t come @ me with your dumb “Ethiopians are more related to us” rhetoric.
T H E Y A R E S T I L L N O T S O M A L I.
Don’t go crying on Twitter about “Why is a AA playing a Somali woman“ Then come to SSPOT saying “Its OK, Ethiopians are our Cushitic brothers anyways
” About Liya Kebede.![]()
Liya Kebede is Amhara, Which are semites.Somalis come in various shades. And I've met unmixed Somalis that are paler (they are in the minority).

You are too young to remember the outrage Somalis had with Black Hawk Down. They hate non-Somali portrayals. Always have and always will.
Liya Kebede is Amhar not Habesha.
Somalis are diverse people and come in various of shades, But I know for a fact that Alisha Boe is not darker than any native Somali. We are generally brown to dark skin, Obviously there are light Somalis but no one lighter than Alisha thats unmixed. Stop being in delusion.
The lightest Somali I’ve meet is Alisha Boe’s skintone, But no one lighter than herMust be because I'm from the north.![]()

I’m sure that any Somali lighter than Alisha Boe is mixed, Alisha Boe is the epitome of “cadey” in my standards (maybe a shade or two lighter than her)
