[QUOTE]Originally posted by Obenga: [QB] It's the ole "Divide and Conquer" trick......kinda old and tired Horumheb... The kids i teach are Blacks from all over Africa and the Carribbean.....guess what they all hang out together, party together...speak the same slang and dress the same....different from the white kids or the Asian kids. We can all point to specific diffrences in culture between groups just like a Frenchman can point out differences between the french and the swedish.....yet they are part of a larger group indentified as European. I have observed the same where I live. Africans and other Blacks of African ancestry do have some culture in common. One can point out specific differences in culture but then the same can be done between a Ghanaian who speaks Ga and a Togolese who speaks Mina. I often hear Africans of one group speak of the different traits of Africans of another group....still they recognize that they are all African. Africans here mingle with Carribbeans on a level they do not mix with non-blacks....there is a reason for that...there is a broader culture that unites them all. Trying to tell one group of Africans they havce nothing to do with another group of Africans is a simple old colonialist trick U can do better than that I have often heard the Yoruba mention oral traditions of coming from the East....many believe they are speaking of the Nile Valley [This message has been edited by Obenga (edited 29 March 2005).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
