Man I grew up extremely pro Black and pro American. Family served most generations before me. Was taught to defend myself in all things add a lot of church and Thts my upbringing. We were more Malcolm than MLK.Raised on Spike Lee movies. Shit Hurricane was my favorite movie as a kid. But nowadays ppl see me being pro Black American as loving yt ppl and self hate 🤣 it would be hilarious if it wasn’t so stupid. Shit I was racist towards yt ppl until I was like 24. I got love for all ppl now but through my life experiences it’s Black Americans tht get my love 1st. My family has lived in TN since before it was a state and other roots in AL. Also granny always told us we were Indian (not gonna debate with strangers on what my grandmother told me so 🖕🏿)My mom always told me u not African American Thts 2 continents and you’ve never been to Africa. I’m American and we’ve always fought for our rights here on the soil our family bleed for. Shit my great aunt just passed last week and she protested with sit ins and was beaten for it. My blood is vested in this land we not going nowhere and me and mines gonna fight till we’re back in the soil.

Side note: Tried to post in blackmen sub but I don’t have the karma. Don’t kno how the fuck i even get it the link for info takes u to a nonexistent page. If someone knows plz fill me in on the secret.

Watching a classic with my wife. When was the last time you watched a classic black movie with a loved one and wat was it? Had her pick a dvd out because we been moving away from the streaming bs and adding to our physical media collection. I always wanted a movie or show about the Baby Lords 🤣🤣

I’m new to really looking at Reddit and I gotta say the Black subs are complete trash. Most aren’t Americans(I’ve gathered) and then it’s an echo chamber of the same beliefs. Can’t call em opinions cuz they treat tht bs as facts. I’ve been banned from one of em after only joining it for 2 days🤣. The censor everything and the verification process is a fucking joke. Where are the Black groups on here full of free thinking family oriented ppl. Man I left twitter but this shit is sooo much worse in my opinion. Am I trippin tho?
