[Groover]

what do you mean we think we are all Americans WE are just as much Americans than any white person in this country. We don’t have to read a textbook to realize that we are from Africa-we wear the skin everyday-Should I remind you we have black history month. African-Americans do find it difficult to relate back to africa because due to the cruelty of slavery and it’s effects on us we have no knowledge of our definite past connection with certain African tribes. WE know we are the descendants of thoses who built the great Pyramids,the givers of mathematics(geometry) the inventors of astronomy,-but the African American experience is all we know,it is all we have been taught. We need not identify ourselves as Mandikka,Ethopian,etc We know we are the survivals of 400 years of brutal oppression yet we remain,we have pulled our selves to equality with our former oppressors that is enough to embellish-OUr Chiefs are Dr.King,RosaParks,WEB Dubois,George Carver,Colin Powell and many others we make our American Experience our ultimate history.We are not Africans we are African-Americans
