Somali BLM girl in my college class

We were discussing the series The Witcher, and I told him that it was incoherent to have put black characters in it when they do not exist in the universe of the series, and that in addition of that was happening in Europe in the 14th century, she answered me that if there were blacks but that "we" were put in slavery
I told her "who are you talking about when you say us?" she answered "well we, the blacks"
I didn't know if I should laugh or cry

Sounds like she has a black soul and is mentally enslaved, tell her to make a one on one appointment with Sheikh Abdisamad and I shall free her off her shackles..

She have told her about your Cushitic bloodline and your never-been-before experience as a slave

It really gets to me when some Somalis do this. We have seriously no business adopting the victim role in regards to slavery. There was no established, noticeable slave trade involving Somalis as cargo. None. Now, could the rare saxiib or saxiibti have been kidnapped or something? Sure. But there was no established trade and Arab sources even as early as around the 12th century make a point of saying the people of "Bilad al-Barbar" (Somali coast) are not traded since they are Muslims.

Not to mention that Somalis were literally avid slave traders both in the north and the south:

Nope. No evidence of this. The only time slavery is truly documented is in the pre-Islamic era by the Greeks in documents like the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea when they say the port-towns along the Somali coast did sell slaves as a minor export. There is no record of this after Islam. Even recall some of the Arab writers noting explicitly that the "Berbers" (Somalis) are not sold as slaves given that they have mostly all converted to Islam and this is the case in the Early Modern era. Lone, occasional people were bound to be kidnapped and enslaved as with any other group but there was no established industry of Somali slaves and if anything Somalis themselves were participants in the slave-trade on the other side of the process. Keeping plantation slaves in the riverine south and urban dwellers keeping house-slaves and so forth.

Bantu slaves in the south in 1885:

Somalis in the north involved in slavery in the 1800s:

The slave caravans from Abyssinia to Tajurrah were usually escorted by the Rer Guleni, a clan of the great Eesa tribe, and they monopolised the profits of the road. Summoned to share their gains with their kinsmen generally, they refused upon which the other clans rose about August, 1854, and cut off the road. A large caravan was travelling down in two bodies, each of nearly 300 slaves; the Eesa attacked the first division, carried off the wives and female slaves, whom they sold for ten dollars a head, and savagely mutilated upwards of 100 wretched boys. This event caused the Tajurrah line to be permanently closed. The Rer Guleni in wrath, at once murdered Masud, a peaceful traveller, because Inna Handun, his Abban or protector, was of the party who had attacked their proteges: they came upon him suddenly as he was purchasing some article, and stabbed him in the back, before he could defend himself. - First footsteps in East Africa

Somalis have no business playing any slave card.

To this day we have an ethnic minority in our country that the more racist among us refer to wirh the word "Adoon" (slave) like calling someone n*gger in America. We have no business coopting New World Black and Madow struggles. These types of girls have identity crisis issues.

You should not be pursuing a degree in Sociology.

Your fault.

Didn’t you say you lived in a French town.

How many Somalis are there in this obscure town.

It is Cushitic guilt. She knows who she is and what her people were involved in. Having no history of slavery and possibly having ancestors that might have benefited from enslaving non-Somalis, she feels a pronounced sense of guilt and internalized hate. Unlike the SJW cadaan girl whose pigment prevents her from being a POC, the Somali girl can use the Black card. In turn, becoming a culture vulture of transatlantic madow people, adopting their historical legacy, and using them to bolster her low self-esteem as she lacks cultural pride. She cannot accept her nomadic roots and what she sees in the mirror: a small-nosed girl with a round forehead and skinny forearms incapable of being xoog weyne no matter how much she lifts.

Yeah, in Alsace

 

[Periplus]

Yeah, in Alsace

How many Somalis are there in Alsace for you to have multiple threads on different Somalis in your tuulo.

Furthermore, Alsace is very remote and Germanic. I highly doubt Somalis live up there unless you’re Djiboutian?

@Apollo I assume you know a fair bit about Alsace-Lorraine (now Moselle)

Nope. I know it was historically German, but it isn't really a famous region.

PS. They dump Somali refugees in remote regions to avoid ethnic enclaves. I am no longer surprised to hear of Somalis living in some strange regions of Europe.
