I am Nigerian (full blooded) and I don't have anything related to nigeria in my house, except pictures. Why do you have to display your culture?? I understand this is YOUR house,if you notice when you go to other houses of any race, thye don't have their ethnic decorations bombarding the walls, of what i've seen most african americans do this, and I don't know why? YOu already know your from there. You don't need artifacts to remind you of it.

That's like a white person putting up the potraits of white beating blacks, and saying 'that's what my anscestors did. I'm not like that but I just want everyone who sees this to acknowledge it'

After all, most whites don't display it OR have AA friends OR are invited into AA homes. African art isn't exactly pushed. BTW, I find it beautiful and collect it myself.

I know that sometimes I see a sculpture, or a picture, and it makes me stop, or catch my breath, and it might even make me a little uncomfortable with myself, but I enjoy it...I enjoy things that are striking and that challenge me, make me think...
