      The reason why white Americans prefer African professionals as I heard (not sure if its true), is because that African Americans are violent and most Africans are civil, respectful, polite, drama free, and are harder workers. That's just what I heard many years ago. But yes, it's sad.

    In Angola we call ourselves “negros”, it’s not an offensive word in Portuguese, because it’s used to identify a race. But if you say “preto” (also used to identify the colour black), it’s usually used as derogatory term by racists. But we as Angolan also can use the word “preto/a” as a term of endearment.

      Yes, because they wanted to depict Africans to African Americans in a misleading way, hoping that African Americans would deny their heritage, allowing the oppressor to control the AA effectively. Thanks to the internet for exposing the oppressor. Imagine how they somehow make it seem like Africa is a single country in the African American school curriculum. I'm from Nigeria, and we have a population of over 250 million in Nigeria as a country alone. We speak over 530 languages and belong to over 355 ethnic groups. We communicate with other tribes via Pidgin English or Standard English, and we learn each other's languages to foster communication. Unfortunately, such aspects are often not taught in African American schools. Why? It's to suppress information and keep us from understanding and appreciating each other. Keep in mind that Nigeria is just one country out of 54 countries within the African continent in Africa. Meanwhile, the population of the United States alone is 331.9 million (as of 2021). compare that to one country nigeria its the population is not that far apart. We just have to keep communicationg to undertsand each other.

    I'm mixed (half nepalese and half italian), but I consider myself italian because I was born and raised in Italy and I speak italian. Which is also why, here in Italy, we usually don't consider Italian-Americans as being Italians, they don't speak the language and never been to Italy, so to us they're just Americans.
    Also the terms afro-italian or asian-italian aren't really used in Italy unless you're talking specifically about race, we just say italian or whichever nationality wer're from.

      @@TheDemouchetsREACT I'm not Italien. But as a Scandinavian who has visited the States, I can say that I didn't see any cultural heritage in most of the people who felt the need to tell me that they were some sort of Scandinavian-American. And what they did what to show me, was a theme-park version of something a few of us did or had a hundred years ago. And they didn't have any idea of its cultural significance or lack thereof. - It's ok, after 5 generations you are just American. Nothing wrong with that, just accept it.
      Where I did see an heritange here and there, where in the little things, nobody really thought about. Like how a barn was painted or buns that taisted just like those my grandmother used to make.
      But I you want to create a buch of American sub-cultures, that is your choice. Just know that at this point they are all AMERICAN and have very little connection to the outside world.

    • @johaquila
      @johaquila Год назад +15

      Just to confirm what mayapradhan951 said. Here in Europe we tend to find it strange when Americans who have never set foot into Europe claim to be Italian, or German (the example I am going to talk about), or French etc. without even speaking the language. Europe is one big, millennia-old melting pot where most of the time you can't tell where someone comes from with any accuracy just from what they look like. It's not at all like Africa, where tribes have been keeping apart for an extremely long time, and not even like America. Nationalities are not races for us and do not have much to do with genetics. Admittedly, the Brits use different definitions and talk about things like an 'Irish race', but they are weird anyway. (Which is of course just a cultural difference, nothing to do with genetics.)
      For us, nationality is about 1) a shared language and culture, and/or 2) a citizenship. For example, any child who grows up in Germany in a German family is definitely German, even if all their genes are very recent imports from say Africa or East Asia. They may not look German, but the moment such a person starts to talk, we recognize them as obviously, unquestionably German.
      It is possible to be German without ever going to Germany, but it normally means that you grew up in a German family abroad, speaking German as your native language. A rare exception to that would be among the more conservative Amish and Mennonite communities in the US. Many of them still speak German and have preserved so much old-fashioned German culture that we tend to recognize them as more German than actual Germans in Germany. Note that this again has nothing to do with ancestry. Nowadays even some of the conservative communities have switched to speaking English while still preserving the remainder of their German culture. That's the exception: people who we can accept as being German despite not speaking the language, just based on how extremely German the remainder of their culture is.
      Sometimes, becoming a real German can be a surprisingly fast process as well. Occasionally a young German woman returns from Africa with a husband. (For some reason it almost never seems to happen with reversed genders.) If she is from a village, he now has the task of not just learning the language very quickly, but also integrating into the various clubs that make up village life. And he had better do it fast to make use of the initial novelty and curiosity phase before xenophobia and racism get a chance to dominate. Unfortunately, these African men often get disillusioned after a while and become very unhappy in Germany. (In a way that's consistent with being German, as not all Germans are happy in Germany, either. But in their case it's really a sign that their original identity is stronger.) But if that doesn't happen, then of course they are a real German. Unlike some random fat mustachioed Bermuda shorts wearing AC-holic gun nut with a pathological fear of taxes and 'socialism' but two German grandparents, who is definitely not German at all.
      To put it differently: We Europeans think of our various nationalities pretty much like Americans think of their nationality. If you meet a French citizen who speaks only broken English with a strong accent, has never left France and cannot imagine living anywhere but in France, would you call them "American" if all their grandparents came from the US? I would assume not. For us, defining our own nationalities/ethnicities this way is a requirement so that we don't exclude some of those who live among us and turn them into second class people with no chance to ever fully belong to the only culture they know

    13:35 in Kenya during the colonial period they just referred to African's as "boy" regardless of age. so you could have a white teenager calling a man old enough to be your father "boy" e.g "boy go fetch me my coat, boy go clean my shoes, whats for dinner boy.. etc etc"

    Greetings! I love and enjoy your channel. I salute you two! It’s refreshing to see a husband and wife working together and not pulling in opposite directions.
    This is an interesting conversation. I’m not sure if this was touched on, as I’m commenting half way through the discussion, but I wonder if people understand the difference between Semitic and Hamitic people? We look the same, but our lineages are different with Noah being the common denominator. Now, there are many people on the African continent that are Semitic, living amongst the Hamitic people, which could possibly in part explain tribalism… maybe?!?
    I think, because our ancestors were taken from the continent, it’s assumed that we are all the same, which is why we here in the states are referred to as “African Americans”, denoting our ancestory, but not according to our tribal heritage, which is Hebrew.

    Growing up with Nigerian parents, I was born and grew up in America in a diverse area in Dallas with black friends. So I have used the n- word but it’s because I grew up around this culture, which because I was born here, it is also my culture, I believe (specifically black American, obviously not as strong as my Naija roots though). And I believe that’s the same for a lot of other first generation African kids so I don’t really agree with that take. Now, if I was actually born/grew up in Nigeria, which is obviously a different world and culture from America, that’s another story and I would agree more with that stance. 😊

    Beautiful reaction, BTW, and as an African living in Africa, it's quite enlightening to me. Particularly where the discussion came to the use of the "N" word. Where I am from the N-word is used loosely because my people-- though educated about its origins-- associate it with being "cool", due to the influences we imported from the hip-hop culture in the 90s, where the N-word is thrown around uncensored in music, movies and the lifestyle in general. So if you ever come to Uganda, don't be offended when someone calls you by the N-word because it is used as a term of endearment, relating to how cool you could be presenting to us.

    The Indians and Europeans call themselves just that because they have stuck to being Indians and Europeans. They have maintained culture even if diluted it is still there. However, African- American is almost a new cultural phenomenon on its own from holidays to words to even music. I’ll almost say the only reason the Africa is in front is because your race makes it an identifiable feature in America

  • @bertkassing8541

    I have a hard time discussing races. Who cares what race you are? I don't really get the whole point. Yes, it used to be, but people, we live in 2023. Maybe I see it too simple. Could be. My two daughters, adopted from China, are Dutch. They have a different skin: So what? My eldest daughter always wants to see who is browner: her or me. And I, of a North Sea Germanic race with English, German and Scandinavian (Viking) DNA, always win. I am much browner.
    Moral of the story: We are all human. Period.
    Fortunately, I can also say that our daughters have never been called names because of their Chinese appearance. Maybe because we have about 180 different nationalities living here around Amsterdam. We are used to all kinds of colors :-) And I always say: the more color, the better! But don't tell me I'm white, because snow is white and I really don't look like snow. I am human!

      Race is a hard topic, especially for those outside of America. Unfortunately, the country we live in has race at the forefront (this video was filmed in the U.S.). I do have to disagree with it just being skin though. The issues we face are mostly due to heritage. We wish everyone accepted everyone the same.

      @@TheDemouchetsREACT Inequality, regardless of skin color, is everywhere. Even in the Netherlands :-) However, I do believe that by organizing your country in such a way that it accommodates more of a social system, you create more opportunities for the traditional bottom layer. Of course there are people who have difficulty with it, because they can lose the privileged position they have. But I am glad that most countries in Europe have a social democratic system that offers many more opportunities to "promote" to a better life. And that also applies to more equality for women.

    The N-word was used by colonizers to refer to Black people in Colonies in Africa. Not just in the US. In French Colonies, Black people were referred as the N-word in official documents like birth certificates prior to the 60s.
    French implemented in their colonies in Africa and Caribbeans the “Code N*gre” for N-Word Code basically the inspiration for Jim Crow,
