Why Are The Delineation Movement Led By Black Americans Bringing Calls For Unity All Of A Sudden?

All my life: to include growing up, mlitary travel, and post military travel…most of the Africans I have met don’t even know if this so-called “diaspora war” and fall into 1 of the 2 major categories: those who “keep their head down” like the non-Black immigrants…they don’t bother nobody.  the second major category are curious about us Black Americans and seem interested when we interact.  Additionally, most of my Black American peers actually are ashamed of their African heritage. Many made fun of African people.  Now I met some sisters and brothers who don’t like us Black Americans…but I can count them on 1 hand…regardless of the dozens I met.  And they were no worse than fellow Black Americans that don’t like me.  Now, in the age of the internet, I don’t see any difference in the real life interaction between Continental Africans and Diasporan Africans.  The only difference I see is on the internet.   My analysis?  While there always has been and always will be Black folks of the African family on both the continent and the diaspora who unrighteously don’t like each other, most of this must be internet COINTELPRO instigators.  Most of the Black folks who decide to be hostile against me and hostile to most Black Americans I know…and I know a lot…are other Black Americans, not Black immigrants.  Next, I look at the histroy of this very unballanced slave trade.  According to research by Urban Intelectuals Inc, less than 3% of continental Africans particiapated in the slave trade.  So while we must acknolwledge sellouts, I realize how the “they sold us” crowd paints a picture of African folks selling their nieces, nephews, Uncles and children into slavery…which is dead wrong!Now for those immigrants…Black and other skin tones, who get to America and try to tell us what we are entitled to, I’m more than happy to have “beef” with them, because they got here on the Back of my ancestors and instulted my lineage! However, my point is that the more we see for ourselves and not rely too much upon what we see on social media…or the relative 2-3 ‘foreign born” Black folks who we have beef with…the more we acknowledge the truth of our history and African/Black traitors..we can actually get to the business of functional unity.
