I grew up in NYC and we gave the Haitians and Africans a hard time in elementary school. making fun of voodoo, them living in mudhuts, chasing animals, etc. We kind of got past that in HS though.

There was this African girl in my class way back in 1990 at the age of 10 back in NYC. He name was Mumina. She's from Ghana. FBA kids used to make her cry everyday by making fun of her nose. It got so bad that her parents had to take her out of the school. They bullied all of us. They used to tell me to go back to Africa even when I tell them I'm Caribbean. They laughed at my accent and all. Got beat up a few times by FBA's kids due to being Caribbean. What saved me was that my school was across the street from my projects. Once the bullies in my school and class found out that I was from the projects across the street, they got scared and stopped messing with me since nobody wanted to cross people from the projects. That said: this myth that FBA's love to push, that they embaraced us is a lie!

I was 9 yrs old when my family moved to America in 1999. DC to be exact. First day of school I was confused because I'm like WTF is an African Booty Scratcher. Didn't know that would be the least of my worries. Middle School is to this day the most traumatizing time of my life and I'm 36 yo. I tell ppl that the thing that saved me from being a bitter anti-black adult was my decision to attend an HBCU. It was where I thankfully experienced a 180° from all the trauma I had endured before going to college.

Even though I do agree that FBA has lost the plot. The majority of BAs didn’t grow up around Africans and Caribbeans nor did our parents tell us to stay away from them because of stereotypes.

Attia's Kitchen :
I think the way some Africans react to Black Americans today may be connected to how many Africans were treated by Black Americans when we first came to America. Growing up in Africa, we were taught that Black Americans were our brothers and sisters. We saw ourselves as the same people—Black people separated by history and geography. But when many of us came to America, we were quickly told, “We are not the same.” We were mocked for our accents, our names, our clothes, and where we came from. Some of us were called “African booty scratchers,” “Kunta Kinte,” and other disrespectful names. After years of being reminded that we were “different,” some Africans eventually started responding with that same separation. The sad part is that now both sides sometimes look at each other like strangers, when our histories are deeply connected. We don’t have to erase our cultural differences to recognize each other as brothers and sisters. African and Black American experiences are different, but our Blackness should never have been used to divide us in the first place.
