Black Americans have moved all across this country. I’m not Texan but had ancestors who were in Texas during slavery just like many others. and Even if they don’t have lineage in Texas it’s a celebration of the last of our ppl being freed so its very much a Black American holiday

At the end of the day, you’re not going to see Black Americans go to any Caribbean flag day, Jouvert, or carnival waving our flags & trail riding down the street blasting Boosie. We understand cultural awareness but other ppl can’t seem to understand it when it comes to us???

Texan Black Americans are still Black Americans & we’re celebrating the last of our ppl being freed. This like Mexicans from aztecan communities telling Mexicans of Mayan or Zapotec origin can’t celebrate Day of the Dead cus they started it which is now an overall Mexican holiday

Why are u asking like I don’t already know? The point is Black Americans no matter if they have Texas lineage or not are celebrating the day of the emancipation of all our ppl. regionalism over this is dumb af especially when ppl outside of Texas been celebrating it before 2020

We all know it started in Galveston Tx cus they were the last to be Freed. And yes my ppl outside of Texas have been celebrating it. And even if ppl just found out later about it why does it matter? At the end of the today we’re celebrating the last of Black Americans being freed

1. Hiphop came from funk music.
2. Pigmeat markham was rapping over funk before the art craft became known as hip Hop.
3.toasting came from Black American jive talk.
4. Ska/reggae heavily came from R&B.
I think ppl just love Jamaica man idk. I don’t wanna start a diaspora war but Jamaica has contributed a lot to Black American culture for a very long time so I think when ppl visit they feel a special connection and want to show that.

Nobody said they can’t celebrate with us? The thing is it’s a Black American holiday. Why come waving Caribbean flags and making it into carnival tho? U can participate and respect just like Caribbean ppl said they didn’t want our music played at carnival and we respect that

I feel like the next time we get a “Black” person chosen as a parties nominee (most likely the democrats) and it’s not an ethnic Black American it will raise some eyebrows but then again too many of my ppl are simpletons and don’t care about how we are being ignored

And the thing is those tribes are more different from each other than a Black American Texan is from the rest of Black Americans but they don’t gatekeep the holiday cus they’re all Mexicans just like we’re all Black Americans. Stop trying to use regionalism in defense of this

Black Twitter leftist, Black Marxist, & pan Africans normalized it. They lean heavily into anti Black American sentiments even if they being direct with it or not.
I saw someone refer to Black Americans as Black Amerikkkans in a derogatory manner and that's just sick...the KKK killed and raped my ancestors, not yours.

Ppl are so used to back in the day when many Black Americans didn’t use to be prideful of our ethnicity & gatekeeping, so now that we are, they attack us with we’re “divisive” & we shouldn’t be proud cus we’re American & our history. They want us to be ashamed & fawn over them

I wonder why ppl who love to downplay Black Americans with “America is a white country” & “not ours” never have the same smoke for Afro ppl in Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, & most of Latin America who go through a similar situation of minority marginalization?

Sadly in the worst turn of events I could see that being the case. In the future we’ll be even more of a minority than we already are to immigrants as they continue to grow in size and the need to appease to us as an ethnic group will matter less than it already does now

Mind u immigrants have been doing this to Black American communities & benefiting off of resources that were originally meant for us for decades. It’s cool when they do it, it’s a problem when I do it …
It’s not just Ghana. It’s also happening in Mexico, Colombia, Indonesia etc. They’re teaching masterclasses on TikTok for how to go to these places, buy up land/property and have the locals do all sorts of domestic labor for you. All while sounding like benevolent saviors.

It’s always “so and so contributed to this” like we can’t say the same for most of everybody cultures. The difference is y’all use contribution as way to take full claim and lie to over exaggerate it while most Black American don’t give a damn about our contribution on yall.
i’m dying at the psychos trying to drag tate like one of the literal core founders of hip-hop is JAMAICAN. and rap comes from sound clash culture created in JAMAICA & let’s not start with the music of the early 2000s when dancehall and hip-hop were best of friends.

African Americans are descendants of enslaved Africans in the U.S. Black Americans encompass African Americans and Black immigrants and their American-born descendants from Jamaican Americans to Nigerian Americans. Some African Americans have joined with racist White Americans

My takeaway from This discourse is ik y’all wouldn’t care if Afro Brazilians wave their flag even tho they were the last in the west to end slavery, had blanqueamiento, & some of the highest brutality toward Black ppl. Same for most Afro Latinos waving flags their oppressed in

Caribbean ppl not knowing their ancestors came from Africa and thinking they just popped up on them islands doesn’t get enough backlash like y’all give Black Americans. Dare I say it’s more common for them to say this type of stuff than us but it’s crickets
Black British culture came from the Caribbean - where most of us come from.
“Afro American” culture came from slaves… who came from Africa.

U do know Black Americans had the most slave revolts? The major difference y’all skip over is that we never even made up above 25% of the population since we been here. in the Caribbean, most islands were already 80-90+% Black by the late 1600s, an advantage we didn’t have
Again, not true. States were passing laws to stop white people from bringing their Caribbean slaves to the US because they did not want them to teach US based slaves how to rebel. Chapter two, becoming abolitionists. Nat Turner was inspired by the Haitian revolution

The thing is it’s no actual evidence outside of word of mouth. Black American artist such as Pigmenat Markham was rapping on funk music with drum breaks before herc got to America. Hip hop in general started off as looping funk music (another Black American creation) drum breaks

tho the lyrics are questionable this does NOT give minstrel. This is how Black Americans performed back in the day such as Cab Calloway which he’s likely paying homage to. I don’t like how u a non Black American attached it to a minstrel. That’s what yts demonized our artistry as
