fucking embarrassing:snoop: why speak english if you are addressing somali issues. Guys my tips is to write the key words in somali when ever you comment, That will save us some embarrassment inshallah
 
Yh, so my point was if any Somali was in a room of non-blacks and someone said niggger, people would look towards them, because even our lightest is “blacker” than them.
This example highlights the stupidity of lumping same skin colour races together. So if a call an asian a ch*nk, whites are supposed to react also be cause they both have pale white skin???

I'm sick and tired of everyone thinking africans are the same race. We all have a common ancestor but have been spread into different tribes and nationalities.


:gucciwhat::drakewtf:
 
Noone has ever mistaken you for an African?
Are Somalis not African?
You guys are even not claiming African now?:what1:
You dont know how I look or anything about my features. 99% of people I meet can tell in Somali instantly, if I dont look Somali, nobody does.
So african is now a race right
 
Any idiots saying Somalis aren't black need to get with the program. Being considered black comes with tons of perks in the West. You can criticize anything and get away with it. I love being black.

Warya your last two posts are contradictory.
iisa so sax
 
They're not contradictory at all. Being black is currency in this day and age. I love being considered black regardless of what I think about the precision of the label.
Black is a weakness today. You get charity for being low class. More likely to get in troubke. More likely to get fired. What perks does it get. The whole you cant be rasict is because wey ka naxayan maskiinimada.

That's not true at all in Canada. Being black means you can basically speak your mind on just about any political issue and play the race card. Being considered a non-black ethnic minority is not the same thing. Pakis can't do the same thing, for example.

Good strategy but careful otherwise you gon tripp into some victimhood mentality
 
Many Somalis are percieved as “black, but a different type of black”, including the lightskin ones.
Some Somalis may be viewed as otherwise, I agree.
We are diverse.
I feel like we are essentially saying the same thing.

Were you bullied as a kid or something? You seem to have an unhealthy obsession with race and skin colour.

All of them check the black box on papers to get some of that sweet affirmative action
