I can’t argue against this beautiful essay. This topic definitely requires reflection and continuation because we are the only people on the globe, with such nuances as these. I’m okay with Black, American or African American.

After me and hubby spoke on this , we decided it is so complex maybe because we are so removed from Africa. The Africa that doesn’t have our back. The Africa that sold us…

Perhaps it is anger.

One Black woman on the Swell app, said with her full chest: “ I’m America not Africa or African. I don’t know anything about them nor desire to. Just isn’t in me.”

It’s sad, but I understood her opinion.
