  • “Faux Anti Nigerian-hate”

    “They can’t hear because they are flipping burgers at Burger King” but yet you speak of anti Nigerian “hate” you lack understanding of Black American history and culture then make gross (and false) negative generalizations about them. I also find the statement that Nigerians just “see another black person” interesting…with all the tribalism that goes on really? How ironic.
