People from US don’t realize that race is VERY different from nationality

Brazil has the most Europeans outside Europe, the most Black people outside Africa, and the most Japanese outside Japan. Wild mix

I do agree that you are black, but we must make the distinction between black American and black Brazilian. We’re all family just with a different culture.

As a Black American, I am tired of the other people diaspora discussing how we spend our Black American dollar. Yall should focus on your own money. Yall never talk about the money of any one else in the diaspora. Why yall don't track the Black British dollar?

It didn't used to be this way. A lot of Black Americans used to be "we all black!" but then we got told "No, I'm pardo/moreno/mulatto/latino/(insert country here), I'm not black". So we just said ok, you're that, not this.

We just mean you’re not “Black American” that’s it, BA is equivalent to Jamaican, Nigerian, Trini. Ppl get confused.

They’re saying you’re not culturally Black. In America Black Americans are racially and culturally Black it’s too separate things.

I think the language divide is helpful because African Americans have lots of internal decolonization work to do to get the importance of preserving black Brazilian respect for us. It's a leadership responsibility and we don't get infinite chances. We don't wanna see any diaspora wars with black Brazilians, which is why, slow development and understanding sustainable economy relative to the planet is important for continuity of good relationship.

In America Black is a ethnicity and a race. Black Americans are Black as a ethnicity and a race whereas a Brazilian is Black as a race

I think so many people are overlooking that you are trying to find similarities between the diaspora to create more unity. However, black Americans have been disrespected by others in the diaspora for so long that there is a guard up. Black Americans have become skeptical about unity with others in the diaspora because we tried for so long only for others to disrespect us.

If it wasn’t for an indigenous foundation of black Americans, no one would be in this country. The disrespected black Americans get is ridiculous.

You are very smart and insightful. As an African, I will visit the Brazilian city with the most Africans outside Africa.

I was just having a conversation about Blackness and realized how many meaningful commonalities exist between Black Americans, Black Brazilians, and Afro-Colombians. We’re all distinct ethnic groups within our respective countries, and in each case, we exist as racial minorities navigating societies where our presence is often marginalized or misunderstood. Because of that, we all face a similar challenge: balancing national pride with the realities of our ethnic and racial experiences, while also figuring out where we fit within the broader African diaspora. That duality, being born in a place that is ours, yet feeling the weight of being “othered” within it, is something I think our communities deeply understand. As a Black American, I’ve had many encounters with continental Africans who, whether consciously or not, approach us as if they’re bringing culture to us. There’s often this underlying assumption that we, as descendants of the enslaved, don’t know who we are or where we come from. That’s why it’s so refreshing to connect with people like Black Brazilians and Afro-Colombians, people who understand what it means to be Black in a country that isn’t predominantly Black, whose histories are often erased, and whose identities are complex and layered. In these interactions, there’s no judgment, just shared experience. It’s validating. It reminds me that Blackness isn’t a monolith, but there is solidarity in our shared struggles for recognition, dignity, and identity.

Thanks for understanding our sentiments here in the US. I wish there was more diaspora unity and we knew more about each other. I would love to learn about Black Brazilians experience.
