[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The more interesting question is, "Do they consider themselves African?" It made my (African) husband C R A Z Y that Ethiopians generally don't identify as "African" but as "Ethiopian." It's a fascinating dynamic, really. Politically, some Libyans may identify as "African." I can't see Tunisians or non-Berber Moroccans doing the same thing. And, I'm kind of tickled when I think of their reactions should you ever pose the question directly. :) [/quote] My DH is Nigerian. He does not want to be identified or associated with AAs. He has strong opinions in the matter.[/quote] That's because black africans generally have a felling of superiority (misplaced) towards black americans. They are very disdainful. It's really distasteful and IRONIC.[/quote]
