Ur only argument is pictures hilarious! Keep posting it's not like bunch of mugshots of ugly bastards is going to debunk my arguments.
This has very little to do with skin color or race more to do with if the term or exonym black is valid one to define someones identity and describe them!
First let's dissect this black african claim shall weDR-YALAXOOW wrote: Yes we are black africans
Nobody on this planet puts a adjective on their identity, especially when they are a majority, except African people. Black Africa, Dark Continent, Heart of Darkness all articulate the colonial contempt for a continent and its people. But how does one arrive at the term “black Africans,” are there green Africans? Would you speak of “yellow Chinese,” or “brown Indians”? Even terms like "White Russian" are unused, despite Russia being a multi-ethnic nation. Because 80% white means the majority have no need for adding White to their Russian to qualify against a minority of "other" Russians. Globally the term " Red Indian" is rejected as deeply pejorative
Let's move on to ur sub Saharan african claimDR-YALAXOOW wrote: From sub Sahara Africa
Mansa Musa famous Hajj traveled through North Africa in the 13th century so why assume Africans would be confined to this designation called sub-Saharan Africa? There is no ancient reference to a sub-Sahara Africa as distinctive entity from the North. To discuss the history of sub-Saharan Africa is projecting history in reverse by setting up borders that were no part of the African historical reality. Diop held that despite the Sahara, the genetic, physical and cultural elements of indigenous African peoples were both in place and always flowed in and out of Egypt, noting transmission routes via Nubia and the Sudan, and the earlier fertility of the Sahara. Given the constant movement of people over time, the fluctuations of climate over time (the Sahara was once fertile), and the substantial so-called representation of "sub Saharan" traits in the Nile Valley among people like the Badari. The entire region shows a basic unity based on both the Nile and Sahara, and cannot be arbitrarily diced up into per-assigned racial zones.
These malicious definitions have been inherited by the victims of European imperialism and normalize into African language and reality. Sub-Saharan Africa is a racist byword for "primitive," a place, which has escaped advancement. Hence, we see statements like “no written languages exist in Sub-Saharan Africa.” “Ancient Egypt was not a Sub-Saharan African civilization.” Sub-Sahara serves as an exclusion, which moves, jumps and slides around to suit negative generalization of Africa .
Let's dissect Ur third claim that we are black and somaliDR-YALAXOOW wrote: you are black and somali
Black tells you how you look without telling you who you are. A more proper word for our people, Horn of African/Somali, relates us to land, history and culture.
So attaching your identity to land makes sense: Attaching your identity to an abstract color, does not. Black and African are not interchangeable in any logical sense. Nor is somali and black interchangable!

I think ur confused about what a self hater is. Let me put it in context for you!
What you use Blackness, is largely a Western or American exonym founded under the oppression of people in America and largley under european imperialism. So basically you are a slave with a name given to you by ur European master.
Cuz that is how the label black developed. It is how Africans were seen relative to the European people. So relative to the pales skin of Europeans and White Arabs the most dominant thing about African was relative skin color. Hence the exonym Black in the eyes of the "other." Key words in the eyes of others.
While I on the other hand use the label my ancestors created for me Somali and the relevant geographical term horn of african as it perfectly describes me as it relates to my land, history and culture!
Check urself you lost coon you are a self hater who values western/American self identification rather than a somali self identification. Since your whole identity is based on how European imperialists view you!
your welcome you see how my mission was proven to be worth while every time! You were a doubter at first. Now I can see in startingn to grow on you
