Should we correct the madows to the true context of this song?

This Somali song is about Somalia's unity. Some madows think the singer is stating "madow", but actually, the singer is stating "Midow," which means unity.

Madows think everything is about them. Like we knew about FBAs then

The other issue is there are some western Somali people that actually agree with them and it starts a tend of some Western Somali stating " You see there is prof of Somali song about madow people". For instance this

Trudeau Must Go #CCP2025
Correcting him and pointing to an actual pan African black song Somalis made would be good like this one

99.99% of Somalis I meet have my skin tone or darker and I don’t have any problem with the black label.
Why some Somalis(mainly northerners) get so insecure and start correcting and arguing with people???

because it will start a problem of people just taking your culture and redefining it as black culture. There some Somali girls suffering with this problem, because the let a madow girl into the somali baati clothing culture and now they doing unSomali things while still wear the Somali baati. We need to have boundaries on our culture and customs or it will be lost to the other africans.

How dark are you

Part of it is culture. somalis are aware that they have darker skin. arriving to the west tho the black label is predominantly used for AA’s as their identity. most africans feel this way nigerians and akata dominicans etc it’s just that black is used interchangeably as a people and a culture.

I have drake’s skin tone.
I had a Nigerian friend who told me “I’m only black in public.” So no one wants to completely erase themselves. Nor I’m I advocating for us to erase ourselves.

That being said, black people need to stick together. I grew up in an Arab speaking country. I see habasha talking about “we is Semitic” and yet, Arab Semitic are extremely anti-habasha and make memes about them almost every week

When none black American hate on black 🇺🇸. There is about 99% chance they also hate us even more since we’re muslims and immigrants.
No amount of “me no black me Somali” will save us.
Or if they’re anti-habasha. “Me no habasha” will not save u. Maybe Islam will. But many are becoming more nationalist/race anyway.
We can have our differences and beefs. But we gotta be a united front in public spaces.

Where was the black people when Mohamed Noor had went to prison for doing his job? I real dont like people with your corrupted ideology of stand with the black people because you believe you will get something. Why cant stand on your own two feet with your community? If the madows are so powerfull what have blm done for Mohamed Noor? but we have to chant floyd? if the madows love so called Somalis or african whats there stance on reparation and you? will you receive reparartion because you aided them with all there cause? or will they finally let you know "oh you aint black bruh".
