I was just at the Middle Eastern/African road in Bangkok and had this odd thought... I've heard American black ppl say when they meet an African-African, that the African-African treats them like a king...
Then I got to thinking... Wouldn't the African-African think the African-American was 'less of an African' because somewhere in his family tree they succummed to enslavement? Or, because African-Americans are now livin' it up with the bling bling and running big businesses, famous and whatnot, does that make them the TOP DOGS on the African totem pole?
Don't give me this shit 'everyone's equal k-man you asshat', because we know that's not so.. for instance in Asia, SE Asians are generally thought of as lesser-grade Asians than mainlanders such as Japanese and Korean etc...
Your thoughts?
