thanx to all the mature people expressing their interest in africa, as somebody who has been to africa (nigeria) it can be a culture shock, but a one in a kind experience...

That's the rule that applies for every other American, but then again, every other American didn't go through the same ****to get here as most Black Americans. What about me? I can clearly trace my roots back to a nation and a tribe, so what do I call myself? I encourage all of you to travel to Africa sometime. As for tracing your ancestry, if Igbo or Igala comes up, lemme know, "Cuz!"
igbo kwenu!

I dont feel like I have an obligation to go to Africa but I have thought about going some day...one of my good friends is from Zambia, another from Liberia and I have some Nigerian-American friends as well...but I would also like to visit Brazil and other places that people of African ancestry have ended up in...

I was supposed to go to Africa in the 5th grade but my dad said If I was to go that they may think I'm a native and force me to stay...I've been scared to go ever since

I would probably visit Africa if I had the funds to do so. I would rather visit my family in Barbados and trace my roots. I feel a stronger connection to the West Indian culture. I don't know not much about that side of me, but I am curious. :grin:
