Some people are lucky to know where they are “really” from. I respect the Latin, Irish, Italian and West Indian cultures the are prideful of where they are “really” from. Its amazing how many Black American people become offended when you tell them they are from Africa. Some people become insulted ON contact…..
I asked a friend of mine did he know that he could be from Australia, Haiti, Jamaica, South America or any of the 53 Countries that make up the continent of Africa?
He said “Hell Nawhh Im from Atlanta! My Whole family from the A!”
Some don’t realize that Africa is our true home and place more value on a country that has in its constitution that WE are 3/5ths of a white man. I know some of these wrongs are said to be right now since Obama is in office. The original problem still remains this isn’t our true home although it is our home now but if you look at it like a train ride “this is our destination but where did we depart from!” Of all the cultures in the world every one of them can say my people came from “fill in the blank” but the black people of America. The sad part is most of us don’t care!!!! It seems we are the only culture for the most part to not want to identify with are ancestral home.
Black people wake up!!!!!!!!
We are ONE people no matter where you live now! we all came from the most resource rich continent on earth Africa. The Tricky part is figuring out what country, lol.
These days there are all kinds of websites that test your DNA to locate where our ancestors were stolen from but a lot of us as black people could give a rats @ss to know.
Be smart and be free.
