    Honestly, Black American or African American both work for me. Neither one bothers me, my ancestors come from Africa and I'll never try to deny that

    Even though I get what you're saying, ? what any other race of people thinks of you. You give them power when you concern yourself with that.They don't care what you think of them! I identify myself as a black man in America and am proud of it. ? what the others think cuz they won't like you anyway.

    As much as I wanna say African American, I know that REAL Africans don't even like the American Black man. Live in Crown Heights for a while. You'll see that ? up front. I can't claim a place where people from it, 30 generations ago or now, get the same ? by everyone else, and you STILL think you're better than me.

    So, ? it. I'm black. I'm American. I'll leave it at that.

    i am right here in nyc and you are talking out of your ass most of the black people in that section of brooklyn are west indian. Have you ever stopped to think that maybe some of the africans you might have met simply just don't like YOU.

    And them liking you or not is irrelevant some african don't even like other africans... word to the nigerian ghanaian beef

    I SEE MYSELF AS AN AFRICAN AMERICAN
    My origins are of the hametic-shemitic race. Descendants of Ham (Egyptians/Kham/Kemets) and Shem (Israelites).

    Long explanation:
    My ancestors are the original Israelites forced out of their land by the people of the north that spread throughout the world to speak different languages and were sold into slavery for 400 years for their disobedience to ? (Genesis 28: 49-68).

    I technically can't call myself African American because Africa is named after Scipio Africanus, a Roman General that couldn't describe the Ethiopian region of where Hannibal came from when he conquered Greece.

    That land was a deritive of Eden where ? started all life. Satan hates ? 's original people so he uses the ignorance in their hearts to tear us apart like Cain did Abel as a result of sin.

    So white ppl til this day believe that Nubian Egyptians are white and that a man with skin like fine brass is a white man with blue eyes and blonde hair that looks like a homosexual name Cesare Borgia and that the 12 disciples are white criminals painted by Leonardo da Vinci. Or that you can sneak a little white baby into the confines of a city filled with dark skinned people to avoid persecution.

    People that eradicate our culture from its true identity because they know not of their own and til this day tell us that we can't be of African descent because our dominant genes are not dominant enough for them so we should be American like those that discriminate against us but cops use it to racially profile us.

    My bad bruh, continue on.
