@capcladlawgrad: #blackamerican #delineation is not about exclusion; it’s the natural next step in the protection of our peoplehood. #fba #diaspora #soulaan
Elon Musk is an AFRICAN AMERICAN…. Let that sink in -

I prefer Soulaan, because ppl like to confuse black American as a universal term as well

We can’t afford to give up “African American” because of the history connected to it. Doing so will allow others to take credit for our historical contributions. They need to use the country they descend from, ie “Ghanian-American”.

We delineate because there are too many other POC ethnicities are attempting to co-opt our identity to further agendas we don’t agree with or push agendas that are negatively affecting path we are intending to take for our own best interest.

I was clued in in my twenties when this African couple that I worked with was mourning the loss of Ronald Reagan when he passed away. Not that I celebrated his death, but they were putting on a show about how sad they were that he passed. My first real life experience of not all skin folk are kinfolk.
Since then I've talked to many African people who have to spend a good 5 years in this country to realize what side their bread is buttered. They catch up, but sometimes it takes a minute.

Idk where this weird “they’re afraid to be called African” rhetoric came from. We have African Ancestry, that does not contradict delineation.

I’m delineating because my community’s progress is/has been undermined, blatant disrespect, and erasure of my culture

The fact y’all are arguing over the use of African American shows as a community we don’t really want to do the hard work. Black American, African American, FBA, ADOS, Soulaan. It’s all the same.

the term African American wasn't a thing until 1980. they try to say we called ourselves African American in 1780 but if you had the opportunity to talk to older BA you'll know that it's not true.

The name African American didn’t come into play until the 90’s

I wouldn’t even say it’s historically accurate to even call ourselves African-American because the parts that took place from wasn’t even called Africa. They were a whole different territory.

Mr.Gatsby 🔴🔱⚫️ :
I’d also argue that after the 2024 election, the erosion of a POC unity mindset in Black America further and helped fuel the push for delineation. It was already happening, but the election helped to accelerate it.

Miss Jasmine :
Our lineage cannot be traced beyond the shores of America due to the horrors of our captors over the course of generations. Who we were before then is lost, and our bloodlines were made here.
