Well.....
1. I have never been there[Nigeria]
2. I only go by what I see on TV
3. The television only show African botyscratchers so that is what I go by.
Was that explanation enough??? |
Well, now you know why white people have their opinions about African Americans... :roll: |
Ok......whew.......I was stating that the television negatively steretypes Nigerians so that is the only depiction of nigeriens that i see....since i have never been to Nigeria.....I have never saw a music videeo with beautiful nigerians...but i always see videos with beautiful brazillians, venezuelans. and etc......did that make any sense or should i explain more???? |
1. please explain more
2. well it depends what you call beautiful?
3. if notice the ones who you say are "beautiful" are just effects of Spain's colonialism. |
When I look at television, I see:
1. Nigerians with nappy hair and flies around their mouths
2. To me, the 'dirty look' is not beautiful.
3. What rap videos youve seen have 90% darkskinned african featured women in them???................................exactly. But i can name you 10 rap videos with 90% lightskinned women with europen features in them.
4. The above^^ was to show how African/Nigerians were depicted in the media---negatively. The media is my only source of info on Nigeria especially since i havent been....... |
what do you think is beautiful?

That reminds me of something ma Nigerian roommate said to me last summer. I was in a 4-week Business program at the Univ. of Mich.
We were debating on whether it was ok for Abercrombie and Fitch to have the "all-american" (a code word for an all-white, blond-haired, blue-eyed advertising campaign) look in their advertising... So we were looking on their website and I found a picture of an African-American male model. So I told her that he probably represented the percentage of their customers who are actually black (there was one black model for about every 10 pictures).
Well anyways she told me he was not "black enough"... She said he didnt count... His features were too european...
I was just looking at her like :roll: ... When is a person black enough to represent their race?
I mean the guy was a light-brown complexion... about 7-10 shades darker than me. So I just snapped on her like "Am I f*cking black enough for you?" And she was like well u also have too mant European features, but it's not your fault that you've been polluted by white blood..."
Anyways the broad was crazy, and your statement made me reminisce or whateva...
