Black identity stolen 😮😮😦

[Reformedlaais]

I remember a Nigerian girl in my school who I didn't like telling me she's Black so as any American I thought she meant she was a foundational black American, I was confused because she didn't look like an FBA but I kinda shrugged it off than I found out her last name and I said "You're Nigerian?" And she said yes and I told her but you previously told me you're black and she got angry with me telling me "I am Black, we are more black than African Americans"... I had to educate her that she can't call herself that or people would assume she means she's a Black American descendants of American slaves and she should just refer to herself as Nigerian American she was fuming and started giving me attitude. Smh. I'm glad FBAs are waking up and pushing back these West Africans and Carribbeans who are stealing their identity.

All shade but why is it ALWAYS a Nigerian

Btw I'm not even an American

But The idea is simple.

Do black Americans trace their ancestry to africa? Yes

Do black American currently have and deserve their own identity? Yes

Do black Americans have anything to do with Africa now? No

Do African Americans deserve any reparation from USA? No

A white American doesn't give a F about Europe so does the European about USA.

So why does the Africans and black Americans have this problem?

And also why some BA have this victim mentality and the some Africans are close to worship the white man?

Because it’s universal? Same with white identity. You’ll see Spanish, Italian claim white. Hell even Arab Christians. If you look back white was originally meant for people that are from the white Anglo Christian background.
if she’s claiming FBA then she’s wrong for that. But if she’s claiming black that really isn’t an issue. Black is a universal term. But is not a big deal.

Factual.
AA's don't own the term black.
It's a racial identifier with numerous categories.

This fba stuff is for the birds tho - We don't call ourselves that internet ass shit.
Black or African american will do.

This ados/fba separatist stuff is modern day cointel pro nonsense.

Black Americans are now fighting against the African for taking the black identity for themselves. For instance when a west African come to America they don't tell people they are Nigerian West African but state they are black Americans. There was arguments African African have been make for them to receive reparations because they are black. Now Black Americans are angry, but they are too stupid to understand they created this mess

Bra.. I don't think I've ever met a continental African that hid their ethnicity.
I'm sure it happens, but it can't be an epidemic.

Saying ur black is redundant if the person you're speaking to is also black. UNLESS you have enslaved ancestors for obvious reasons.

People typically lead with their ethnicity or original nation state.

Believe a literal white supremacist state (USA) gives a damn about righting historical wrongs

Unserious arguments
