      Africans are diverse too, we dont all look the same, and some Africans stand out more, others blend in.

    Hi Wode Maya, I can see you love corn on the cob. I would suggest you try our Guyanese coconut flavour boiled corn. It is delicious.

    Thank you for taking the time to get to know the Afro-Brazilian people, not just recent African immigrants living in Brazil. As you now see, there is more to Black cultures in the Americas than civil rights and the predominant Eurocentric culture that exists around them.

      He's actually in Guyana a country next to Brazil which has a sizeable African/ Black population too

      Why would he choose to acquaint himself with recent African immigrants, who are a minority, instead of connecting with Afro-Brazilians? Africans are often unfamiliar with the nuances of Black cultures rooted in civil rights, so the phrase 'there is more to' holds little significance here. If you find this Eurocentric society challenging, consider exploring other environments that align better with your values.

      @AfricanMaverick So many African youtubers come to the Americas and don't bother to spend any meaningful amount of time with African Americans, just other Africans. When they do think about African Americans it is often exclusively in the contexts of the Civil Rights Movement.

      @@artsylovelylady Who are these African RUclipsrs, and why don't they spend time with African Americans? There are several reasons. Firstly, they enjoy global recognition, diminishing the novelty of encountering an unfamiliar group of Afro-descendants with African-derived culture. Therefore, there is a lack of compelling content in this regard. Secondly, Americans, predominantly influenced by Western culture, present a cultural gap that seems less worth bridging. Apart from Africans, other groups with African culture are scarce. Thirdly, Americans are often perceived as hostile and aggressive, discouraging deeper engagement. Finally, the challenge of connecting with a culture that is not their primary focus further limits their interactions.

      @AfricanMaverick Because that's what some African youtubers do who shall remain nameless.

    That's really the thing. Blacks around the world need to be taught by Africans their culture. We have adopted so many other cultures instead of the ones we are actually from. Learning African manners, morals and culture can clean most from the shackles they learn from Europeans and other cultures that are non-African.

      Sure you can try that, while everyone sees you weird Africans as foreigners trying to infect Latin nations with your child like ideas. 😂 AND THEN 🤷 well point, and say hate these outsiders making problems adding nothing, only wanting to take 😅 but calling it teaching. The choice is yours, choose wisely.

      We should learn about each other. We all come from Africa and we all have different ways to cook for example. Lets share

      Not all Black individuals are of African descent. Those who are should consider reconnecting with their ethnic roots. Learning about one's original culture is crucial; self-awareness is key. Often, Africans worldwide adopt a broad "black" label and align themselves with the local black culture. However, it's important to note that this local culture may not necessarily align with authentic African norms and values; there exists a significant contradiction.
