@VaVaVa_Voom@varizvanguard@AnuAkinwande it wasn’t just black Americans that developed it, Caribbeans had a very big play in what hip hop is today, even some of the most recognizable names in hip hop aren’t fully black American, if at all.
@Nenemonayyy I’ve been tired. These are the same people proudly waving the flag of their failed country while living in AMERICA. It’s been time to draw the line and send them back. They’re quick to call Black Americans lazy, yet somehow they’re too lazy to fix the problems in the countries.
@Noquartergiven9@treewolff How did he spew hater shit??? It is a known fact that the American lifestyle is way more lax in contrast to other countries. That is not a racial thing. Until ppl can honestly critique their “own” (culture, race, religious leaders, nation) there isn’t gonna be any development.
We also perpetuate racist white stereotypes on immigrants. We call them poor, starving, shit hole countries, talk about their language, speech, dress and culture, meanwhile America has robbed & exploited these countries to no end, so they come over here to get money & go home!
@varizvanguard@AnuAkinwande “Cosplay and be mistaken for”….are u forgetting that black Americans would not be a thing if not for Africans in the first damn place??? A lot of black culture stems from/is influenced by African & Caribbean culture and was pushed by black immigrants. Pls be fucking for real.
