Self hating Somalis.

[Reign]

Because for a somali the lighter the better/ marrying white and arabs delights the family. Their babies will be "blessed" because they are "so cute". Marrying madow is like going several ranks lower than a record low. Somalis are extemely unintelligent and we have a culture built on racism.

Wallahi you hit the nail on the head.

I believe we do have an identity crisis this maybe why bleaching is so popular. In our heads we cannot fathom we are africans let alone black. Our language maybe diffrent compared to the Niger- Congo (bantu) or the Nilo-Saharan. However we are african nonetheless that is how the Asians view us how the Europeans view us. This is what we tick in our race chart when we apply for a job. We don't tick somali that's not a race never heard of this catagory.

Identity crisis and bleaching dont go hand in hand. Bleaching is because of european standards of beauty. It was imposed on us. Just as this threadstarter want to impose a identity created by europeans on us. And you dont identify after how others view you. You have identity of your own. I dont have identity crisis. Im somali and im aware of my roots.

We are literally as far from Bantus as we are from Nordics.

We deserve our own racial category.

 

[Bernie Madoff]

yes we are black cushites africans thank you @Reign

 

[Lord Flacko]

No you're black African and we should allow our women to marry our fellow Africans instead of the above reers.

Why do people say black african? I have never heard of yellow asian. Would you tell Chinese to marry their fellow asians aka Japs and Koreans when they hate eachother?

You can self-identify as long as you admit you are black cushetic African.

So theres white and asian cushitic africans now too? Black is redundant and retarded way of categorizing. There is no black language to speak, flag to fly, culture to enjoy (aa are the exception since the term black was made for them) or black cuisine. I wasnt born to a black mother or black family, but a Somali mother and a Somali family.

No I'm not BLM xalimo. I believe injustice is injustice and should not be done to anyone regardless of race or religion. I'm just here to make you guys see the error of your ways. You are Black Somali Cushetic African.

If you want to talk about race then you'd know we are "Ethiopids", Same as other cushites. Does that mean that Ethiopians are our friends now?

We share physical traits? You one blind woman



And socioeconomic traits? Tf is that? Youre saying that Somalis are poor therefor same race as blacks? News flash, that would make 90% of India blacks too alongside a huge chunk of the worldwide population

This is all made up eugenics bullshit. The only people who take this seriously are neo nazis and "conscious" black people.

 

[Mohamud]

Thats not self hate, somalis are somalis. Not black thats identity whites gave to american negro and somalis look down on anyone that marry out. No matter what he/she marries.

That's just lies being real. We clearly have a pecking order.

"reer roger"

The fact that "Reer Roger" is a term used by all on SomaliSpot gets me every time.

But essentially this. Race classification is a load of bullshit. Ethnic and geographic grouping is the only thing with an ounce of relevancy.

1) Somalis are black and are in the same category as all other sub Saharan Africans and Caribbean people.

2) Somalis encourage marriage with Arabs for their kids and will pay much more in dowry for their son to marry a Arab girl ($50K+) or give their daughters for free to the Arab man. This is of course if the Arab allows this

We're culturally more similar to arabs and southeast asians than we are to west africans. The only thing similar between us is the color of our skin.

Exactly my point, but when it comes to blacks it's "oh no! God forbid you ever marry them. The self hate is real.

And a recent colonial history and slight geographic proximity in a land locked region. And it we're being real, tiny similarities like that is kind of what united a shit ton of other ethnic groups around the world any damn way.

But being real there are aspects to that Arab influenced culture we gon have to change

We don't really share much history with them. Africa is a huge continent where regions are separated by large areas of jungle and desert. It's not like europe where there were historically close relations between italians, french, germans, english etc. Eastern and western africans have totally different historical identities.
