If I’m correct didn’t African America win more gold medals than the whole African diaspora out together ?

That’s kinda game over

You won’t get one because the immigrant / grifter does not want to admit to you that his sentiment about us is envy and disdain.

Look at the other posters in here associating Aboriginal Americans with Trump supporters.

The sentiment of the immigrants that came here and are prospering off of the back of our ancestors is crazy because they couldn’t even succeed or survive in their own home land. They needed preferential treatment and government support to make it here.
Your words, not mine

I don't know if it has changed since I was born. My Jamaican birth certificate doesn't state race. Neither does my parents or my parents parents birth certificates. I never heard the N word or was told I'm Black, until I came to NYC at the age 5.

When I was in the second grade in Catholic school I showed my teacher Mrs, Defalco, I was brown and she was piggy pink. I had not grasped the concept of referring to folks by the color of their skin. Especially when the wrong colors were being used. That bitch was the bane of my existence after my attempts to correct her colorist contentions.

Suffice to say I told my mother the people at that school were wicked and I didn't want to go there anymore. So she let me go to public school the next year. Knowing there would be hell on Earth if I was forced to stay in that miserable place.
Similar story except mines took place in Philadelphia. I would bet good money there’s someone from the Baltimore/DC region all the way down to Florida had a similar experience.

ADOS = coon......correct.

Every moron on here that repeats ADOS/FBA talking points are repeating shit that is coming from people on Republican payrolls. Yvette, Antonio and Tariq are all sympathetic to Republicans and tell you that you shouldn't vote.

They're coons and if you rock with them......well you're judged by the company you keep.
You hanging in the thread with these niggas on a regular basis dummy. Also, once again the unpaid (???) propogandists are responding to somebody else's quote. Watch the behavior

I mean we all from somewhere else unless you're a First Peoples.

However you should claim the country you're competing in the Olympics for. I think.

I mean what about the Black Americans on other Olympic teams like Japan, Croatia, or South Sudan, or the Africans competing for Sweden?

The fact that you don't see it proves you're just an insufferable asshole and that there is really nothing to discuss.

To my knowledge, "Black" was created as an American term to describe us and those from other countries generally don't use that term.
Yes but it was created to encompass all people of color; not just people of color in America; so when mofos come to our country and try to act like they are not black; but want the benefits of being black; and truthfully the only reason why they are saying that is because they feel like it separates them from us; but it doesnt...

You feel how you feel, and it sounds that you feel slighted or disrespected because they don't identify as "Black".

But in their countries, they're not "Black". They identify as the country that they come from. It's when they come to a the United States where they're told that they're Black.

Yes to us they're Black in color.

Giannis Antetokounmpo's Nigerian and....Greek he says. So yes he's Black in color as opposed to white, but he's Nigerian and Greek and not simply Black.

And when in Greece if asked, he'll say that he's Nigerian and Greek and not Black. Because Black is generally a term used in The United States.

And the same goes for Jamaicans, Haitians and Puerto Ricans as well.

Now I could be wrong, but I'm speaking to my knowledge.

Your country is your country! Black is a term not a color! people of color don’t necessarily have black skin or have to have black skin to identify as black. Black was a term/word created or used as a form of endearment power encouragement unity emboldened etc etc; instead of using the words they created for us. So yes he’s from Greece but if he identifies as a person of color then one would conclude he is black!!! Now if other people of color from different countries don’t won’t to identify as a person of color when they come to America then there in lies a problem. Again most people of color that are from different countries don’t like to say they are black because of what they think it represents. In the end they are black and are looked at as such in this country…well then again maybe not lol…

Black is a term and is used to describe the color of one's skin as well as the race of people that person is!

As in the color of their skin and the race of that person!

I only used the exclamation points because you did.

Again, every place doesn't used the word "Black" as racial identity or color. I'm guessing that you're American so that's hard for you to understand. I don't mean that in a negative way, that's just not something that you're used to.

Yes I believe that we're all Black in the same sense as you, but every land doesn't believe in or use the term "Black" as a cultural or racial reference and I understand that.

And some don't...

The singer Tyla caught backlash a while ago when she said that she was colored and not Black.

yes i agree and again the only reason why they that have problems saying they are black is because of the negative things that come with that; and thats the problem i have with them; it aint about where they are from or what country says black or not; because lets be honest; if the word black had all positive things and positive stereotypes about it; then they wouldnt have no problems saying they are black...
