    I'm an African immigrant and this topic creates a false equivalency. The immigrants that come from Africa are mostly college students, work permit holders, or come from at least upper middle class backgrounds. So it's unfair to compare that subset with the entire FBA group. Newsflash, in Africa we also have a giant population of "lazy" people, etc. And not all of us dislike American black people. Most of us were influenced by their culture, and we love them. Free game stay away from hateful Africans and hateful black Americans. They're all 1 cesspool of ignorance.

    I am an African immigrant from Uganda 🇺🇬. Started from a University in Alabama but have lived the last 13 years in Los Angeles. I have too much respect for black Americans, the mental toughness required for them to remain sane in this country is admirable. For us black immigrants come to this country with already a sense of who we are,even if from poverty. A. Child born in this country will face systemic racism from day one , growing up they see so much negativities that’s is meant to crash their spirits. You turn on a tv and you will see so much negativity directed at black peoples. This has been going on for generations that it has actually succeeded in defeating the spirit of some . But black Americans have risen over all the obstacles to create the most vibrant cultures . Talk of fashion, music, movies, sports etc

Because immigrants from Africa, Asia and other places do succeed in European countries.

Most Black Americans are just like Africans, they are working hard to survive. I guess the difference would be is that we are doing it with systemic white racism hanging over our heads.

      @barry3394 I agree. Some of them still stereotype Black Americans based on what they see on TV, but I'd like to believe that most don't. Just like some of us still believe they live in huts amongst lions and tigers, but most of us do not believe such craziness. I've been to the continent many times. No matter the country, they're very much under the thumb of white supremacy.
      In my opinion, Blacks in America don't trust one another, so how would we expect to go to an African country and expect a different result. Because of slavery and colonization, our ancestors experienced lots of the same brain washing tactics, and here we are. Keeping an open mind and remaining flexible are the keys to better relationships. Reversing the conditioning won't happen overnight, so patience is very necessary.
      Regarding wealth, Africa has wealth and lots of it. Most countries dont have a strong middle class comparative to Western countries. I recommend visiting anywhere in the continent as soon as you can. It's life changing

So to have immigrants, especially African immigrants, have the audacity to look down on the very demographic that made it possible to move here…is quite insulting.

I came to the US very much aware of the oppression of Black Americans in the hands of white supremacist power structure, to me, the Black American experience was almost similar to Black/indigenous South Africans, now, I said all of that so you understand my background and my mindset coming to the US, I however had a rude awakening in my first couple of months, I was hated by Black Americans, called names and to my surprised, I was loved by white Americans, they were the ones who befriended me, helped me and even at the hospital I worked at, the Black American woman had issues with Africans but the white Americans loved us. My experience is very common amongst Africans who live in the US, both my friends are West Africans, a Nigerian who is an engineer and a Senegalese who is a physics professor both young guys like me, they both told me horror stories. Black Americans must stop pretending that Africans must sympathize with them when they are the ones who hate Africans and they do so even when Africans extend a branch of love, the Black Americans especially the Black American woman, want us to love them unconditionally but hate us for being Africans and see us as a competitor, to them, we are their soft target.
    Lastly, I find it very unfair that the American gentlemen here is not bringing African people in his platform who are knowledgeable and educated on these matters, instead he is discuss an issue that involves all Africans an and he brings his employees to pretend as if those employees represent the mindset, views and experiences of Africans living in America, he brings his African employees so they can agree with everything he says to appease to his American audience. The people who will loose the most are Black Americans because by listening at the guest here they will not learn any serious lesson.
    I need to add this, there has been a lot of Black American CZcamsrs who insults Africans, Americans such as Anton Daniels and Tariq Nasheed and this guy from American has not really spend time to condemn those American clowns but has the time to lecture us Africans, I take exception to that.

      Thanks for telling the honest truth. It's the "hurt people, hurt people syndrome..." & bcos they believe there's no repercussion for behaving negatively towards Africans who they believe are lower than them on the totem pole. The most profound part of what you shared is "Black Americans must stop pretending that Africans must sympathize with them when they are the ones who hate Africans and they do so even when Africans extend a branch of love, the Black Americans especially the Black American woman, want us to love them unconditionally, but hate us for being Africans and see us as a competitor, to them, we are their soft target." I see it all the time, that when given the opportunity, African Americans will treat Africans worse than whites do them, because that's what they understand power dynamics when tilted in their favor to be used for based on their lived example with whites...

Plus, his hosts does what he tells them to do and blindly agrees with him because they are scared of getting fired. How can he talk about the Africans living in the diaspora without those African being present to discuss?? He picks a "topic" about Africans in the diaspora and brings continental Africans who have never set foot outside of Africa to discuss on the panel. A average African in Africa has no clue how black American treats African.

      More relaxed culture
      Less sense of urgency
      More likely to take their time and enjoy the moment
      Less likely to feel like they need to rush around and get things done
      This can lead to a slower pace of work and lower productivity
      This is because Ugandans don't live with debt. Most of their transactions are cash and their cost of living is low compared to the States.
      America is a credit society. This makes them:
      More fast-paced culture

    What I hate is when Blk foreigners make judgments about FBAs work ethics when they don't understand American workforce politics. FBAs must put up with a different kind of racism than Blk foreigners. We are faced with yt micro-aggressions all day, no matter how hard we work, while making less than our yt counterpart for the same position. As a retiree from a fairly good position, it was hard to deal with the fact that my co-worker, who was hired ten years after I had been employed, started out making twenty-thousand dollars more a year. I had to train her how to do the same job I had been doing. If the benefits were not so good, and had I not had other financial advantages, I would probably have quit. In the space of time of my employment, I had three bosses. The first and third were monsters, but the second boss was so impressed with my performance that he increased my salary. Under his direction, I received plaques, trophies, time off awards, and cash awards, so it can’t be said that I was not an exemplary employee. Most yt employers pay their yt employees more than FBAs employees, and the FBAs employees more than foreign Blk employees. Nevertheless, I still made less than the yt co-worker whom I trained. I fear FBA youth have given up. Not many are as lucky as I was. Despite my resentments, I was one of the very few Blk employees in the agency in which I worked, which had four huge divisions. I would not have gotten the position had I not known someone who knew someone, regardless of my education, work ethic, and resume. It is difficult to be motivated while being harassed when there is little to no reward or potential for growth. These things are intentionally done to us to provoke disenfranchisement. While prior generations knew this as a way of life, our youth are not as accepting of such treatment. FBAs are responsible for America's rise in power and know we are at least owed equal pay for equal work. Our youth experience these inequalities and are disenfranchised. They find it hard to tolerate and see no change in sight. Blk foreigners come here to work and because they make more in America than they did in their country, they are grateful. The following clip shows an immigrant who found out.
    (czcams.com/users/clipUgkx5adWkvKYa5_2Ps8rVA1XRhiyMITYwpb3 )
    After all, their plan is to work and save and return home with a fist full of Yankee dollars where the value is sometimes double. FBAs don't have such options, so they don’t have the same vision. Blk foreigners don't realize that yt people hire them because they will work for less without complaint, as they are unaware that they are being cheated. Yt people know it is wrong, but they also know that Blk foreigners give them the best bang for their buck. It makes it so difficult for FBAs to get hired or secure equal pay for equal work when yt employers will hire Blk foreigners before a FBAs because he doesn't have to pay them as much. FBAs have been fighting the good fight for generations, and our youth don't see where it will ever get any better. They don’t see the point of working two and three jobs when it is still impossible to pay bills. Blk foreigners are just getting here. After a while, they will understand. That train is never late.

      I'm an African born and raised in Europe, I can't relate to your narrative. Speak on your own people but don't just assume Africans got it like that. Where I live 99.9% are refugees. My parents came here as refugees and moved back home after 20 years because of the same struggles you talk about. Tragedy struck and now I'm stuck providing for my sick mother and brother who's currently in college (my father barely made it 5 years before he was murdered back home). I'm grossly underpaid considering my qualifications but I don't use that as an excuse for why I'm not where I'm supposed to be. When I couldn't get a job I went abroad and acquired the qualifications needed yet when I came back I was pigeonholed in an entry level job where I'm earning scraps. I'm damn near pushing 40, living in a tiny ass apartment because my salary ain't enough yet You're trying to tell me that Africans got it easy. Foh, I ain't trying to hear none of that. My parents left before I even graduated high-school so I started off in a group home. Everything I earned was because of my own blood, sweat and tears. Every single one of my close friends got murdered family members but we still push through. Some of us made it, others didn't. I survived an attempted murder, then 6 months down the line got news that my father got murdered only for my homie to get murdered 2 months afterwards. That was in between trying to balance my studies abroad in England with no moral support (I'm not a native speaker). Every time I went home shit popped off in my neighbourhood until I stopped entertaining the bullshit. I've got PTSD from the shit I've seen but I still wake up every day and go to work because that's what a man's supposed to do. Suckers get caught in the streets.

If you looked at the included CZcams video, you would have seen the Somalian refugee who came to AMERICA and who validated my comment. The global Diasporan problem is that some of us within the Diaspora feel the need to be combative with others in order to rank as superior by making the point that theirs' is a different experience, rather than accepting the shared information as a point of education. That is exactly one of the effects of yt supremacy, which works best when some in a group think that they are better than others.

    You are right Oshay. Most Jamaican immigrants, when they come to the US there is no help for them outside of themselves or family members so you had better work two jobs or work and go to college, especially if you did not come from mega wealthy family where your parents can fully support you. First of all America is no easy kettle of fish. If you don't work in America you don't eat, and if you don't have extended family here to give you a helping hand God help you. You also can't come here to slouch off, and live off your family either. You had better push it and ask God to bless you with health and strength, and you do whatever you need to do go to school and support yourself. Fist of all you can't go to the government for help because in order for you to get your Green Card to live here in the US permanently, the agreement that is made is that you CANNOT get aid from the government. The person who sponsored you has to take that responsibility. I am speaking of Jamaicans only, I don't know about anyone else. If you come here as a teacher or nurse, or other professional back in the day, then you get sponsored thru your employer/sponsor yourself so you therefore depend on your own resources. I don't think that sort of thing exist anymore. You could come here as a teacher or nurse, back in the day when there was a shortage in those professions. In fact they went to the island to recruit. Same thing happened to the nurses from the Philippines. I certainly respect my African American brothers and sisters. I look at them as being privileged because they are Americans. They are the trend setters. We as Jamaicans have no help here, but the help of God, and I appreciate the graciousness of African Americans. Some of us came here for college and soon get caught up in life, making friends, going to college, getting married and having children who are now Americans, and so America now becomes your home. Peace and many blessings.

    I'd like to expound on this Topic as a someone who has had the opportunity to live life on both spectrums being a 1st gen American. It's a misnomer that FBA's/ADOS are lazy because what immigrants call opportunity can be classified as exploitation to an ordinary American citizen. Immigrants make basic USD wages while living a very basic life in the US, they'd then send that basic wage back home and are able to build an upper class life because of exchange rate advantages, my mother's USD wages when converted was far more than the wage of her homeland's head of state. Juxtapose that to an American getting that basic wage but since he has no other home country his exchange rate is 1:1 & it's impossible for him to move upwardly with the same Job that immigrants accept in most cases. The extra expenses Americans pay e.g insurances etc is not experienced by most immigrants.

    I highly disagree with the woman in yellow regarding opportunities in the West vs. Africa. I just graduated from university as a dual major, and I'm starting another degree. I have noticed that companies in the US are giving opportunities to immigrants at a greater rate than they are giving opportunities to foundational Americans (race being omitted). If you have an accent, or you are a first gen, you will likely get the job. Even if you didn't do as well as someone who was born here. I hate to say it that way, but I worked on a project while in Uni, and the data was there to prove it. The opportunities for FBA to excel are not as readily available as people think they are. People always talk about DEI, a company can hire an immigrant to fill their DEI quota. FBA aren't the greatest beneficiaries of DEI.

    Opportunity is in the eye of the beholder. Africans and African Americans shouldn't be criticizing each other. They both should realize that they each work hard and experienced and experience obstacles that may not be readily visible. Just keep in mind who sold who. Just because I'm a African American Caribbean doesn't mean I'm unaffected. Typical comments that I receive and don't appreciate are you're not really Black, or you're not like them irritate me because I see them really see them and know that they are not lazy but often tired of being mistreated, abused, stereotyped, and their efforts thwarted. It's amazing that during slavery African Americans were considered the hardest working, loyal people but after slavery they're just lazy. This nonsense needs to stop amongst us. We were one until dispersed amongst the globe and need to unite and stop the nonsense.

    The guy in the video speaking about not respecting Black Americans is a clown I'd like to ask a few questions of.
    (1) If they're so smart you couldn't they accomplish in their countries as a majority what we did as a minority here?
    (2) Why do they come here to be educated in schools Black Americans created but none if us ever go to schools created by them to educate us?
    (3) Why is it that in a country where we are the minority and were being beaten and lynched daily, we had more influence in impacting making social advances for them than they ever had for us?
    (4) Why is it that as a majority in their countries they have only recently learned to stand up to foreigners invading their countries like we've been doing for centuries?
    (5) Why is it a continent of 54 countries full of Black people they can't muster up enough strength to it take over and do what 35 or 40 million Black Americans have done? Nigeria alone has 200 plus million Black Africans yet they allow themselves to be controlled by people who aren't even in their country.
    (6) How is it that as majorities in their countries they can't even hold onto their own cultures and customs yet here in America we've created a culture that has become a global phenomenon?
    (7) They need to know it's because of Black Americans that they're allowed to even be here. It's because of laws passed during 1965 and the many battles fought by Black Americans that they've been allowed to come here.
    (8) I'd like to ask him why in countries where they are the majority none of them anywhere has built as many institutions of higher learning, or as many inventions as Black Americans

    Sometimes we get so involved referring to African Americans at the bottom of the food chain that make no effort to elevate themselves from the bottom of the food chain that we sometimes forget to specify we are not talking about all African Americans. When we forget to specify all African Americans are not lazy, unwilling to work hard, or elevate themselves. It is we are programmed by the media to focus on the lower class and the criminals and not realize all the African Americans who graduated from Ivory League Universities, Black African American billionaires (and the tens of thousands of millionaires) most who are self made. And now we can add African American President to the ranks, African American doctors, engineers, lawyers, etc. Additionally, all countries, all races, all cultures have people living on the bottom of the food chain with no aspiration to elevate themselves.

    The only issue with what Oshay says around 18:00 is that coming into an African country being from the US makes things move for you very easily. It's not the case for the African who comes to the US or even for the African in his own country. That's the main reason why Africans immigrate. They'd rather struggle where there's opportunity to make it than struggle at home with no opportunities for people who don't already have enough to invest into making it.
    African immigrants come into the US not with the mindset that they don't care but with the reality that nobody gives a shit so they just keep their head down and move silently from the bottom to as far high as they can get.
    You have to admit that it's the only reason why the African immigrants who get success actually get it. There's no special assistance no matter what some people say. If there were such a thing I know I would've been very successful by now.
    And that guy wants you to bring your people because he can smell money that his people don't have, the very thing I was staying at the top. To bring your people to teach the local people is the only thing that Africans need to be honest. That's what that diaspora does but that's not what the leaders tend to care about.

So let’s stop the talk of Africans come here with nothing and work hard it don’t work like that they are all getting help, they get housing grants education grants food grants all of these immigrants. Africans have been giving whole communities. So let’s stop it. They get benefits. Not hard work. We know this system now. As far as African Americans we work 12 to 16 hours a day.

    The young woman that spoke Rachel gave good points but only if you are looking at it from an African stand point. Immigrants see the system of American but does not understand the allusion of it so they think we are lazy because we as americans know that a lot of it (the system) is a lie. But they are starving for opportunity and are so ambitious for a better life that they into the system and are going to find themselves eventually falling into it. African due come with a lot of value and pride in they tribe which is respectable. Also americans know that as the generations grow they will lose most if not of those morals, and that is what american does it takes your cultural values. Some americans are just learning the system that is also true and are doing the same as some immigrants but don't have the access at this point to obtain some levels of life. Most people are trying to move away from the system to build wealth on their on, which would leave a lot of jobs vacant. That would also leave a lot more jobs open for immigrants coming in to think american are lazy but truly they are just over the system.

    I agree with you Oshay. Very correct America will reward you if talented. But Africa crashes talented people. And that's Africa has lost innovators. When you are at home mom feeding you every day you not going bo be hungry. On top of that you mama spoil you. So you kind of lay back and you miss out on the opportunity that foreigners tend to see. For men, I normally blame the mothers because they spoil them when they are still boys. Especially boys are lazy because the mothers let them play video games all day. Therefore they are not hungry and consequently don't develop the work ethic. But Uganda needs foreigners to change the mindset of Ugandans. Most Ugandans now believe corruption is okay because that's all they have seen their whole lives. It is there the diaspora that is going to change African work culture. I personally want the diaspora to take over because they will change the culture from corruption. It all goes back to the corrupt governments that have not created a system and culture for its population to succeed.
