Pan Africanism....rant.

Pan Africanism is an idea born out as a consequences of trans-Atlantic slave trade.
It is not this old, ancient idea that lingered around. It is also riddled with ridiculous and absurd ideas such as to politically unified Africa. It is talking about unifying people on the bases of their skin colour disregarding religion, customs and tradition.

That's like suggesting that Asians should have some kind of global Asian movement because, well Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese...kinda look alike. But at the same time, having some kind of the Asian customs, to which Indians, Pakistanis, Persians and Arabs should somehow integrate into.

I cannot see Egyptians and Moroccans having the same system of government as Kenyans or Zimbabweans, nor do I think that people in Nigeria and people in Somalia or Ethiopia have the same wishes or political aspirations. Not to mention the hundreds of languages and dialects around Africa.

I would find it extremley opressive and quite insulting that someone would group my whole continent into a single political system, single culture and single identity. I would be angry and disgusted with whoever wanted to suppress my language, my history, and customs and condense it into something.

Africa has a very long and very rich history and it started shit loads of years ago. Arab and European slavery are just fragments of that history.

The point of the rant is that skin colour does NOT determine identity.

Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4:

Slaves didn't come from Nigeria or Gambia or Ghana.

There wasn't A Ghana A Nigeria Or A New Guinea or Democratic Republic of Congo or Nyasaland which later turned to Malawi etc.

These were European created Nation States After Native Forms of governance were dismantled and progressively eradicated by The Signatories to Otto Van Bismarks' Division Of Africa conference convened to preempt and organise the scramble for Africa.

Paragraph 5:

Analysis of your scrips suggests circular logic[well meaning] and an allergy to factual information aided by a not too flexible attitude, could keep you from realising a rudimentary understanding of the current status of The Pan African diaspora.

Item 1: I used the word diaspora
Its There For A Reason.

Item 2: See Item 1.

Item 3: observe the use of the word current in -Paragraph 5-

Item 4: Nice Rant.

Item 5: Look before you Leap.

Deciphering gibberish is more of an art than a science.

Lies. My great grandfather Mengele got lots of shit for having subjects.

Probably because of what he subjected them to.

I heard there's a lot of black-people in Africa, can you confirm this?

Here's a question Bardock How many Hispanic friends do you have who count as real friends.

here is a question for you shiv, do you think your friends of another race appreciate the fact that you use their ethnicity as a way to symbolize your anti-racism?

don't you think they would rather you judge them by the content of their character, and not their race, when valuing them as friends?

I asked Bardock if he has any friends who happen to be hispanic to illustrate the fallacy of labelling a person who does not happen to have close encounters with people of a particular ethnic origin as racist towards the ethnic group.

I am sorry my comments have caused you pain.

no pain, just confusion

His story seems too check out.

lol "The N Word"

We have come so far as a civilization..

lil b I thought your advice was sarcastic. Especially when you wrote something like; idk select a country at random and go there.

You stated African customs and traditions are well and alive.

in the aftermath of the 19 and 20th Century Savage Saga of European Empire Expansion, many are Dying and many are Dead.

moving abroad to experience a different culture is a good idea provided its well executed.

advising someone to pick a random destination to travel to and adopt as an ancestral home at the end of a post where you made reference to "non existent cultural corrosion" and displaced africans "whining" over "non existent cultural corrosion" was the catalyst which roused my ire.

Research before travel arrangements is a good idea.

If you locate a Place of Origin, Destination Point will be interested in resolving the case of the branch which spontaneously combusted in "1818" when you arrive. This will help you feel valued. This will help them complete the Oral History of your people for generations to come.

Can anyone here locate the exact point where this thread became pointless?

Just asking.
