  1. I am not African American. I am not Black. I am the descendant of of my great grandmother who told my grandmother that she was a Seminole indian born on a reservation . I believe her bc she told my grandmother, who told my mother, after my my mother asked. Although, I am not African, we have so much in common.

  2. Saggin always looking for excuses to be lazy , how come blacks are the only ones with the so-called generational trauma and others that were also slaves dont come out with that bull💩

  3. If you're are an African there's no way you will say slavery does not affect you. In Nigeria in particular till today these people are draining from our natural resources and is sad that some of our people are helping them with that.

  4. America is one of the best countries in the world. I came here from Mexico as a young boy. I was educated in the U.S. I don't feel like the system was against me and I didn't know the language. Thanks to my education, I now work at a law firm. I have a decent job. I purchased my home in 2021. America is the land of opportunity. If someone blames others for the results, that shows a lack of character. Don't victimize yourself.

  5. I think we all feel that way about the police. I feel like everyone I know acts completely different when they see a cop driving down the road you get worried about doing something wrong when you're not

  6. When Elizabeth shared her thoughts on how black Americans are perceived in her country due to the music industry. That’s how everyone who grows up outside the black American community perceives the majority of black Americans. The music industry and Hollywood have done this by design….wonder who’s in control of majority ownership in those two groups?

  7. I’m not going to lie these dudes are oppressed by their own mind the only one who has sense is my African brother they so focused on racism and at the end of the day we as black people each other but then expect the world to help us and then blame slavery or Jim cross although it plays a part does not stop you from living your dream and making it happen

  8. Im curious why affirmative action wasnt brought up or talked about . If these discussions are to be had all aspects that effect the topic should be discussed.

  9. Key words ancestry history got nothing to do with you today. There is systematic racism but it's nowhere to the extent of what is was back in the day stop playing victim and work hard. Most white family's didn't own slaves plus there were many black slave owners soooooo atop the cap and the narrative the govt. Tries to push work harder that's all

  10. “Black” people are prisoners of war, a war that’s still going on today. “Black” people are very different from Africans and majority are “
    Native American”

  11. So, these Africans do not know that during slavery African families on the continent were destabilized? Parents were torn from their kids, and children from their parents, etc.

  12. This is an excellent video that proves Black people from the U.S. and Africa are capable of coming together and sharing open, honest and intelligent dialogue without all the pre-conceived notions about one another and finger-pointing etc, I liked this video so much that I took it back to the Black In America social network. I love these young people. Let's do more of this!

  13. What I hate about this conversation is these three black Americans, who look financially stable, who are very articulate who look like they’re doing very well for themselves. I try to compare their current state on wood real slaves went through.

  14. In ANY city the HIGHEST crime rate comes from only one of the minority population… It's not the color of the skin that makes them have the mentality to do the crime or demand to be ENTILTLED to everything they think they are. Slavery started 1,000's of years ago. GUESS what…… they were WHITE. During the ROMAN EMPIRE'S 1,000 year reign there were OVER ….."20 MILLION" slaves. 99% were WHITE. Where's all the WHITES reparations? Blacks Slaves weren't even in the actual USA till it formed it's own country. THAT was 1776. Then the Emancipation Proclamation was in 1863. SO the COUNTRY ITSELF HAD ONLY BEEN IN EXISTANCE FOR 87 YEARS. THE USA was the COUNTRY WITH THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME TO HAVE SLAVERY ACROSS THE GLOBE. SO slavery in the COUNTRY OF USA has been in country for about 87 years. Most historians use 1619 as a starting point: BUT the USA didn't exist then. 20 Africans referred to as “SERVANTS”, NOT SLAVES arrived in Jamestown, VA on a Dutch ship. Compare the 12% percent of population in 1860 to the 20% in ROME that had been WHITE slaves for OVER 1,000 years. HMMMMmmmm!!!!!!!

  15. like the United Kingdom free country.which countries are not free.all countries are free.look at china today u will tell china is not a free.while?because there technology sufficient and economic free.they break the chains.they are free like a bird.
