Black American Exceptionalism and Xenophobia

Inside some Black Americans are Over Privileged white Karen's trying to get out. 

During a recent debate I declared that if you think those poor abused BLM Black American think any different to white America, then think again. Inside most Black Americans are over privileged white American Karen's trying to get out. Then all hell broke loose and I was banned from twitter for that statement! 

It is the view of some Jamaicans that once some Black American visits the developing black and brown third world, they become white Americans, they see us through white eyes. Black American Exceptionalism is real because they were all culturally conditioned like white people to view the outside world the same way. That is why most Black Americans are always on board with American foreign policy in the black and brown world. It is as if they view themselves as superior and others inferior. People who suffer oppression always look to oppress others in order to feel good about themselves.   

The ironic thing about Black America is that the same White Western World Order media that reports negative, counterproductive things about the black and brown world, is also reporting negative, counterproductive things about Black British and Black Americans to the world. 

I was unfortunate enough to get into a debate with some Black Americans calling themselves Foundational Black Americans. Out of pure ignorance I asked Foundational what? 

The USA is a divided land of Subgroups 

• Tea Party
• Proud Boys
• Qanon
• BLM - Black Lives Matter
• FBA - Foundational Black American
• ADOS - American Descendants of Slavery

They declared if a black person in the USA cannot trace your relatives back to American Slavery then they are not one of us. I said what about black people born in the USA of foreign parents, the USA is all they know and they said they are a pollution to FBA culture. They are nothing but anchor babies and not a real black Americans. The language they used were no different to the language of white superiority. There was no love between us because to them, there is no us. 

Controversial group ADOS divides black Americans in fight for economic equality. Their advocacy leaves out an entire group of people, American-born descendants of immigrants, some of whose families have been in the U.S. for generations, many whose families may have survived decades if not centuries of institutional racism -- in limbo. And the focus has pitted ADOS adherents against people like journalist Roland Martin, who is descended from Haitian immigrants.

My Scary Journey Into ADOS, the Anti-Immigrant Movement Led by Black Folks

   

In Hollywood, Harriet Tubman is played in a new movie by a black British woman, much to the annoyance of some black Americans. On the United States census, an ultrawealthy Nigerian immigrant and a struggling African-American woman from the South are expected to check the same box. When many American universities tout their diversity numbers, black students who were born in the Bronx and the Bahamas are counted as the same.

A spirited debate is playing out in black communities across America over the degree to which identity ought to be defined by African heritage — or whether ancestral links to slavery are what should count most of all.

Tensions between black Americans who descended from slavery and black immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean are not new, but a group of online agitators is trying to turn those disagreements into a political movement. They want colleges, employers and the federal government to prioritize black Americans whose ancestors toiled in bondage, and they argue that affirmative action policies originally designed to help the descendants of slavery in America have largely been used to benefit other groups, including immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean.

The American descendants of slavery, they say, should have their own racial category on census forms and college applications, and not be lumped in with others with similar skin color but vastly different lived experiences.

The group, which calls itself ADOS, for the American Descendants of Slavery, is small in number, with active supporters estimated to be in the thousands. But the discussion they are provoking is coursing through conversations far and wide.
