      I did not have this experience when I went there when I was 7, over 2 decades ago. They treated me like I was a foreigner. Despite the fact that my parents weren't. Even when I meet Nigerians in the Asian country that I live in now, I hesitate to call myself Nigerian because I've had some of them tell me that I'm not. So now I just say my parents are Nigerian. Even as a kid, I remember people assuming instantly that I wasn't Nigerian lol. But maybe it's because I was in the village. Not the city.

Thus its always hard for us to let people be. We always want to pull one another to each other. It's not easy for us to see someone get lost. Thus it's so hard for us to let someone escape us.

    Some black Americans say that we sold them off to slavery , the truth is , it was only two kings and their men who did that. Other black Americans say that Africans did not fight for them but they did. Some slaves were even brought back to the continent. We were just out numbered and if we kept fighting we were going to be wiped out because we didn't have the weapons they had even though we win many battles. We are all learning a history written by whites and they tell us what they want us to know. Even our history here in Africa starts with slavery and colonisation and it does not go into detail about black history , it talks about whites mostly. We learn that we didn't have civilization in Africa and we should be greatful that white people came because we lived in the wild , but we all know that is not true. So as we grow , we try to unlearn and relearn. Trust me it is not easy. We are even trying to get rid of the religions. It is hard to unlearn and relearn 😭😭

    I am just so happy for the impact social media has played and continues to play. We are increasingly understanding ourselves and coming together. A time will come when we will be the toast of the world and it is already shaping up to be that way. We are everywhere and even though slavery, which helped spread us everywhere was a bd thing, we are gradually turning things around. That young man that was stolen from Africa centuries ago had a brother. I may have descended from that brother who was not stolen whereas you descended from the one that was stolen. So, we probably originate from one man / woman. Like the lady said, we do need to heal, together!

    This is why we as Africans are so happy when we see Black Americans, Caribbeans, Latinos, and others achieving success, because you wear the brand of our continent and it inspires us to see people that look like us break the conditions imposed on us.

NO one sees you as An American or whatever as long you got a Dark Skin! When you're on African soil, You're one of us! The ONLY time they might get to Notice you're not from There by nationality is when You speak with your accent LOL. I told her let's give it a try & whenever We went anywhere, She would let me do the talking. At the local restaurants where She insisted that We must eat, Whenever they came to take our orders, they'd speak The pidgin English to her and she'd.be staring at them confused lol.That's when She'd begin to speak English language and they got to Know She was African-American from her accent. I also remember visiting Tanzania and Kenya. At the Pubs or restaurants, the waiter would come to me speaking Swahili and I'd be staring at them confused lol. Then they got to know I'm not East African. We have same blood Ties. We're One and the earlier We all start seeing this and reuniting with our clan regardless of where they are on the face of the Earth, We would NEVER get to value Who We truly are!

    I want to expand on where the girl in this videos thought process was. She is right, she and her family are African american. It gets to a point where African people act like African Americans taking pride in what we are, and what we overcame is bad. As if being African American isn't enough. If people want to learn about their ancestors' culture, then great. But honestly, africans from the continent and even friends I have who are here in the States act as if I'm supposed to throw away my own history and culture for his. Like mine isn't valuable or something

    This is so true…
    When I moved to the states I came here with the same thought I had back in Kenya,where I never was asked where I was from,never had to be mindful of how I interacted with people,never had to worry about my skin color.
    Whenever I cooked food and my American friends who were there would be amazed by it,this was not normal for me.
    I quickly learned through my African American friends what it meant to be Black cause i had never referred myself as a black woman.
    As a joke I would say,never knew i was black until i came here.
    Not necessarily in a bad way,but that meant I had to learn what that entails.
    My friends at first didn’t understand why I asked so many questions but for someone who has grown all her life in the midst of most people looking the same as me,our ways are the same,our culture and traditions may vary but I had never had to look at my skin and refer to myself as a black person.

    I’ve visited a number of African countries and I love them all. I am of Jamaican heritage living in the U.K. I love Jamaica very, very much and yes I love the U.K. I have known my African roots since I was a child and very much appreciate them but Jamaica is a huge part of my identity that I refuse to diminish, that doesn’t mean I deny my African roots . What I find disappointing is when people from the Caribbean deny their African roots also when Africans tell people from the Caribbean you are not Jamaican/ Trini and they do it in a way that implies you don’t know your identity or history. It’s not true and it’s very disrespectful and THAT is what I have a problem with. I love my African brothers and Sisters and one of my friends always tells me I’m Ghanaian we laugh all the time about it (She is Nigerian)I have no problem with it but I am also Jamaican AND British. I think many people either don’t understand or refuse to accept that it is not just where your ancestors came from that influence who you are, even in Africa there are many countries and within those countries long-standing division exists, it’s not just something from the past If I keep telling a Kenyan they are Somalian would they not tell me “I’m Kenyan”. I believe we should not only embrace each other but take the time to learn to appreciate and understand each other

So whether you're black or a hyphenated African, the African continent will still identify with you, and like it or not, the rest of the world will also assume you identify with the motherland, unless/until you state otherwise...

    As an African born in Africa who works in Australia, when I go back to Kenya and speak English, they will know that I live overseas. It's all in the accent and how I dress. They also know if it is hot weather and your skin looks matte, you've probably just come from overseas. There are many Africans who work in the Western world, so your American accent might not be automatically be translated as 'you are an African American'. They might they you are an African living in America.
