African-Americans are obsessed with this Somali girl

[hydrogen]

This girl's picture was posted once before and it reached 60,000 retweets among the African-American community on twitter, I can't find that post but I was randomly searching on twitter "African-American pride" and this one particular user I went to his twitter and he had this picture.

What amazes me is the irony of having AFam pride and celebrating other people. I remember vividly this one Afican-American girl saying she wants her daughter to look like that and this African-American boy replied saying "If you marry me, we can create one" and she jokingly agreed with him as if it was possibly for them to just "create" her.

Not African Americans....but a celebrity first posted that pic on Instagram and that's how it went viral. I don't remember which celebrity..i'll ask my sister.

Obsession?

Just because blair underwood posted this adorable little girls pic and hundreds of thousands of people agreed, all of a sudden their obsessed about somali girls? What is wrong with a group of african descent praising a girl of african descent? Surely u would not have a problem if white people were complimenting that little girl.

Somali are black africans

If our black african brothers think we are beautiful then i say thank you

They are praising the eurocentric ideals of beauty under the guise of blackhood and a Somali with any self-respect would be offended. It's because she looks like a white girl with black skin, that's the only reason they like her. You don't see white people saying "My future daughter" and that's because they don't aspire to give birth to a dark skinned child but you will see black people say "my future daughter" because they aspire to have a child with white people features.

What my initial point was is the irony of being pro-Black, pro-Africa and then praising the most European looking "African".

This girl is cute and adorable but they wouldn't mass praise her would they?

That little girl looks nothing like cadaan people, she looks straight up horn of african not even indian, just because most people in the world are not aware of the diversity of africa (like the white dude u posted) don't mean anything sxb. Lets be honest u have this intense hatred for people associating somalis with other black people of african descent.

[STARKAST]

Hydrogen has valid points.

It all comes down to African Americans/Jareers hating their own selves, hence them emulating Caucasians aka sporting weaves and the admiration of Non 'black' features..
300 years of living like cattle + Jim Crow/Planned parenthood type orgs will do that to you . See, Black Skin, White Masks by Fanon.

I would accuse you of being in denial but I don't think you've even comprehended what I've said at all.

Hydro translator:

They aren't from the horn of African stock so how dare they say they can produce a genetic variant they do not possess. The shame of them, not loving who they are and exalting the beauty of another African they have no relation to. I'd respect them if they posted the photo of the little black girl as it is representative of them, and I'd even support them more for stopping the chemical assault on their hair.



I was trying to decode what you meant and that's what I got.

She's really cute mashaAllah. Just realised all those people probably didn't say mashaAllah.
