Somalis are a part of the AA community which is why she felt it was appropriate to speak out for Somalis.
Stop! AAs are their own ethnic group with their own history and culture. And so are we!
We have a similar story with AAs. Somalis check off "AA" in the census. Somalis claim AA to get college scholarships and to get ahead by taking advantage of affirmative action policies.
Somalis and AAs live in poverty, both feel they are victims of racism in society. They both struggle to raise their kids. Both have high crime rates. High rates of single mothers.
These two communities are alike. They are the closest compared to other communities.
Please Abdi you are generalizing. While we may share a lot of problems WE DO NOT SHARE STORIES. We are our own ethnicity with our own history and problems. AA don't share a problem like qabil or arabization or a war torn country.
Of course we don't have 100% shared stories but we do share more than compared to other groups.
Please AAs share similar stories with Arabs, Mexicans and south East Asians but I don't see you making a fucking similarities
Not really. Arabs and South East Asians are typically living in middle class suburban settings and are educated. They don't have crime and poverty issues.
Mexicans are poor but they work 2-3 jobs and don't have the unemployment issue that Somalis and AAs have.
We get it Somalis and AAs are practically the same people! We eat the same food wear the same clothes speak the same language. And those other ethnic groups do have their share of problems.
