      We have all that's defined and more. Let me remind you that every LIE that is implemented for AGENDS will be torn completely down and thrown in the face of liars whose minds continue to be COLONIZED by their masters in 2022!. There is no defense for a lie. So it's going to be your CULTURE that will of being the joke without respect. Caribbean nor anyone in the western world have a viable language from their original culture.
      So we can cut that! I'm going to cover the definition of CULTURE, then you can go back and tell your trainers to send you on another mission because this one shows your desperation! FBA/FREEDMEN/BLACK AMERICANS didn't rely on Caribbean's, Africans nor Europeans for Black American Culture.
      Our ancestors CREATED and left the Playbook in the hands of THEIR CHILDREN! We are committed to protect it by "any means necessary!" Immigrants brought NOTHING to the table in the U.S. we had not already done to claim, you have a culture and we have no culture. Those of you claiming that show YOU'RE STILL NO MORE THAN SLAVES, taught and raised by those who submitted their entire core to being subjected.
      When our people were charting calculations to lay out Washington D.C., creating automobiles, becoming the first medical doctors, lawyers, inventing all kind of household inventions, that was BLACK AMERICAN CULTURE. What were Africans and Caribbean's doing besides trying to get into the U.S.?

      Your first comment should have been your last, because you can't shed any light on anyone's IGNORANCE but the ones who raised you. Your parents are ignorant for producing and sending out such a disrespectful empty vessel of a person to someone else's country where you are going to eventually end up in an isolated hole.
      Or most of you are going back where you come from when they finish with you and you are just about done! We are most definitely finished with you. So in a bit you can kiss your business in the Black American community or attempting to cater to us, GOODBYE! The majority of your people are not worth the time or the effort, your minds will forever be COLONIZED.
      Europeans come from all over the world to listen to Black American Music and partake is GOOD OLD SOUL FOOD at Black American establishments in New Orleans, Mississippi and Memphis TN! All meat dishes are made out of one or the other! Last time I checked we mastered PORK, and beef in the U.S.!

      Black Americans have AWARD winning FOODS, Africa have flies around their pots, quite appetizing for Africans because NO ONE ELSE WANTS IT! I would suggest that the next time you weak, jealous, COLONIZED MINED LOSERS, pick a topic. Make sure it's not CULTURE and HIP HOP, because you created, and cannot replicate neither to make it as MARKETABLE as Black Americans, because it's not original to you.

They are very fortunate it is THIS TIME in the U.S. and our people are savvy enough to defang them. The previous generation of the 1990's would handle this differently. Black Americans OWN THEIR CULTURE. People can enjoy and compliment other's Culture respectfully. This is not what Africans, Latins, and some Caribbean are doing. It's not their culture and if you are from one of those groups it's not yours either! If you are FBA you are an ignorant man that no one has time for. But you chimed in and let's show you the difference in MEN and COLONIZED MINDED FOOLS, who come to others countries. Because even though they have wealth under their feet, they cannot accomplish anything in their own lands! My heart goes out to this man and I hope his murder get's the death penalty.

How? Because it’s a different culture over here. Having the word American attached to one’s culture definitely is a diff experience. I was raised by my family but I still went to school in America which is where most of the indoctrination, socialization, shaping of perspective happens. For this to truly be a balanced debate we need to hear from someone not just “born” but actually raised somewhere in the Caribbean and raised in an African country as well as descendants of those places and direct blacks native to America.

    African American culture - Jumping the Broom, Mac and cheese, Greens and sweet potatoes (the way we make it). Jambalaya. The Gullah Geechee are technically African Americans. The Nation of Islam. Bean Pie 😂 R&B Hip Hop, Rap, Jazz, The Blues, Go Go, certain dances, AAVE - people immigrate to the US, assimilate in with African Americans and begin speaking AAVE but it’s still our culture & language. They’re just assimilating into African American culture and then saying it’s not a culture because they can assimilate into it but it is part of our culture. White people even take from AAVE and make it trendy in their circles but they are taking from it - it’s not their culture. We joke a lot. Our swag, clothing and hair trends. Our art and literature. Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison. James Baldwin. Josephine Baker. Our hundreds of years of struggle here - our strength. There were many slave revolts on US soil and the response was hangings, chopping peoples heads off and dismembering them. Also the US is much larger geographically than a lot of the small islands and we were outnumbered by whites in comparison - also the Caribbean had a larger number of African enslaved people. Much different playing field. Also the US was prime land because of its cooler temperatures something that white people did not want to give up. It was likely much harder to overthrow the whites here during slavery. The National Museum of African American History and Culture is a great place to learn more about our culture and history in the US. Great 👍🏾 conversation!

They allowed Caribbean's and Africans here because they considered them obedient, and that's what the whites you guys love so much have said even today. Most of the people of Jamaica live in poverty.

No one seem to have a problem doing this. I understand the agenda that many Black Immigrants have signed up for. Yet the Islands and Africa is being colonized as we speak! So if Black immigrants want to continue to pretend, that's on you.
      Black Americans understand who we are and what we bring and have brought to the table, and what we are facing now. You are here using the achievements we fought for and accomplished. Most of the Black millionaires and billionaires in this country are Black American because of Black culture. Yet we have no culture? Our culture is the culture immigrants replicate and monetized.
      It's the culture that is replicated all over the world. It is us who loved Blackness and fought to be proudly Black. Yet the Caribbean and Africa are quick and constant is regurgitating what I believe is an agenda they have been given, to utter Black Americans have no culture as you immerse yourselves in it. It is Africans and Jamaicans who bleach their skin attempting to be white.
      So let's deal with the truth, no one is going to allow you to come to their country and undermine them and destroy the further of their children without server backlash.

It's erasure to not acknowledge that and act like you don't know what our culture is or consist of. We are the real representation of america, and even though we and carribeans shared the same boat, we have some similarities. However, it's not exact. If it was exactly the same, they would have come here and understood our plight. However, they didn't. Some had to come and live amongst us for years to understand, and even then, some still don't. Black americans are different.

    "You're taking American dollars..." No, they contributing Nigerian/Jamaican/ADOS manpower, intellect etc. its not charity, its quid pro quo... they pay taxes and earn that s**t
    "Meanwhile the people here are still suffering..." but ADOS can do the same thing they're doing and fund their community... and the reality is many immigrants DO contribute to their black communities. Caribbeans have worked with black folks for decades. Top Nigerian doctors work in black communities to improve medical care etc.
    "If they were to come and build with us..." I think different communities got different views of how to build, kinda like Malcolm and MLK. The immigrants feel like you gotta be more concerned about education... ADOS feel its the "white man's education"... but actually math is math
    "we kinda start the choo-choo train" ... well, with some things. And yes if its good ppl going to follow (jazz, reggae, afrobeats) and you can lead. But if its bad, they gonna move away. But honestly, most African countries don't have black American affairs on their radar, they worried about their countries. Kids follow what they see on TV and that's pretty much it.

    Our take on racism will never be the same as Americans. We live in countries where our population is mostly black or mixed. So the only racism most of us will ever see is from America TV.
    However, don't be fooled, Caribbean ppl are highly educated, and we are very versed in our history and culture. We just chose not to keep ourselves in perpetual mental slavery. We take the good parts of our history and celebrate it. What Americans also forget is our ancestors are not only from Africa. Our ancestors are also Indian, Portuguese Arawaks, Caribs, Maroons, garifuna etc. So alot of us are not going to relate to "we are all Africans". That culture was taken away centuries ago. The famous Jamaica jerk meat that the world loves came from our Arawak ancestors.

      Maroons are descendants of Africans in the Americas and Islands of the Indian Ocean who escaped from slavery and formed their own settlements. They often mixed with indigenous peoples, eventually evolving into separate creole cultures such as the Garifuna and the Mascogos.

      Bob Marley embraced his Africanism and advocated Black Jamaicans to be proud of their Africanism. Rita Marley has been living in Ghana 🇬🇭West Africa for the past 40 years. In Ghana 🇬🇭, there’s a place called The Jamaican Village where many Jamaicans are currently relocating there and the surrounding places in 🇬🇭.
      Did you even know that the Reggae music was influenced by what was going on from colonialism in Ghana 🇬🇭 around 1957 when Ghana 🇬🇭 became the first African Country to gain independence. Many Jamaican musicians like Bob Marley were traveling to Ghana and seeing the brutality of the colonial masters. Please, listen very well to the lyrics in Bob Marley songs.
      Please, speak for yourself because MAJORITY of Jamaicans AND THE CARIBBEANS love and identify with their African heritage.

      When I heard them saying that I chuckled to my self cause I realized that they clearly had no clue what they were talking about. There were so many slave revolts going on up and down the Caribbean especially as a result of the Haitian revolution. Do they realize that more black people went to the Caribbean, Central and South America than the whole of the USA? Only a small number of enslaved people went to the USA. Also the Caribbean is not a monolith. Different islands or territories was controlled by different nations such as the Dutch, the French, the Spanish and the English so the Queen of England only had control over the English speaking islands and territories. The Congo from my understanding was controlled by Belgium and not England so when no one corrected the statement about the Queen and the Congo I was surprised. Finally, slavery was abolished in the English speaking Caribbean and Territories in 1834 many years before the USA so how did the enslaved in the USA help us gain freedom? Overall the discussion was interesting however it would have been nice to have a person that was born and raised from the Diaspora to speak on these topics since they would have been able to give a better more informed response. The Caribbean is not a monolith and is made up of over 20 island nations and territories with various languages, religions, races, cultures etc. The region has many similarities but at the same time we different from each other.

    On the Descendant of The Pre Civil War Black American Population woman(ADOS), she says some interesting things. Many I agree with but the question that I ask, when she talks about being "on code" on "Black Identity," does she even fully understand it?
    The problem with conversations like this is trying to incorporate groups that have Sub Saharan African descent whether from the Continent or from the Caribbean into this "Black Identity" dynamic. So when they reject it and do what most people do, represent their own identity, people especially those who have a Pan Africanism perspective get upset with this.
    As I say all the time, my "Black Card" is my lineage history being a 4th-5th Full Descendant of The Pre Civil War Black American Population; the 1860 Black American Population of 4.4 million in which 88% were enslaved and 12% Free. That's ADOS and Free Black American ancestry.
    That's the Black American Community, the people who been through the history of what American Blackness entails. Caribbeans and Africans will never understand that dynamic because they don't have any frame of reference for understanding this.
    I don't care about the opinions on what others outside of my community thinks of me and mine. I know the resilience of my community and proud of us as a community. Are we perfect? Far from it. We have a lot of work to build up our community and we have to get an understanding of our community so that we have pride in it and not care about the opinions of others on us.

Also I dont think Caribbean people say to their children not to "hang" with afro-americans because they are "thugs" Caribbean people would probably be held more accountable because they are not in their homeland/country and no one is there to come to their rescue...so they just try to tell them keep to themselves...(not to say Afro-americans are bad) because if there's a fight, and a caribbean person gets involved trying to help their afro-american friend, that caribbean person can lose their travel rights to america or have their student visa revoked..but yes I agree some Caribbean people are not educated on the truth likewise some afro-americans aren't either...there's so much to be said but I think each diaspora has been negatively portrayed and also each has benefitted from each other

The only thing I'd debate against when it comes to African Americans is the history of Liberia, but to some degree I understand that they couldn't go back to a life of tribalism after facing the full brunt of inhumanity. However, it concerns me how flawlessly they adopted the mentality of the colonizers, the oppressed became the oppressors. I'm not a fan of tribalism, but there must have been a better way to handle that situation. Regardless, if you ever need support, know that we'll always stand against injustice. 🇯🇲✊🏾🇺🇲

Our livable wage is an embarrassment we all know our shortcomings and own up to them to the point of looking like we hate jamaica. But black americans got to own there shit too. most of these here on the panel are young . I've been travelling since primary school. Alot of these stereotypes used to true. The younger generation has turned that around but it wasnt always what they know it to be today.
      They also got to understand that Jamaican people dont have a safety net so we naturally push harder and talking bout we get favoured for housing when come here is bollocks. I have rarely sen even upper middle class jamaicans come and buy houses. They live in the same complexes and even section 8 housing with the black americans. we were their neighbours.

      😂 Foundational Americans? U guys have no culture that fake fba identity. And if u was born and raised in nyc well u know about this right?😂👉👉South Bronx is the birthplace of Hip-Hop, it comes to no surprise that the intermingling of Puerto Rican and West Indies along with Black styles are the main contributors to the basic Hip-Hop essence.For years, Puerto Ricans have been involved in the middle of the hip hop revolution throughout its history whether it was through breakdancing, djing, and eventually the MC's. One of the first DJ's to have come into prominence is DJ Charlie Chase of the Cold Crush Brothers.Often, when people here Hip-Hop they associate it with only African-Americans. However, Hip-Hop is actually the combination of West Indian, Puerto Rican, Blacks of New York. Hip-Hop has always been open to a diverse audience, and thus is not limited to one specific group. DJing started in Jamaica, where the artist would mix and scratch music with repetitive phrases mixed it. In Jamaica, and in many area of the West Indies, music is used as important as politics. Music was used to express the voice of the citizens. Political parties themselves used the musics of DJs to represent their positions. As people from the West Indies moved into New York and specifically the Bronx, they began to incorporate their values of music as a form as expression. When the West Indians began to live with the Puerto Ricans and African Americans of the South Bronx, their art of music mixed in with the rapping and rhyming of the people living there. Hip-Hop began to include in general, Rapping, DJing, Graffiti and Break Dancing. DJ Kool Herc and other DJ from the West Indies, gaining popularity from their style of music, began to encourage the youth to get involved in the art of Hip-Hop. Soon some gangs began to focus their concentration on Hip-Hop rather than using violence to express their anger with the environment they were in. Afrika Bambaataa would find the Universal Zulu Movement, which was a gang that focused on Hip-Hop. What all the people involved in Hip-Hop do have in common is how the merge the struggles of every day life, and their environment into their various forms of art in a way that people facing similar difficulties can also relate. Hip-Hop then turns into a voice of all those New Yorkers, and even beyond, who are constantly trying to improve their lives in a difficult environment.🇵🇷🇯🇲💪✌️☝️🏝🏝🏝🏝🏝🎤🎛🎚🎙👑
