I think most American black people, at least some that I’ve spoken with, understand and know this fact. African and Caribbean blacks can’t stand American blacks.
or, “whatever the homies want.”
I guess the ancestors of the Caribbean blacks answered help wanted ads for high paying jobs in the sugar industry. There were so many volunteers the plantation owners had to chase many back to Africa. < /s>

They don’t like the Nigerian Americans because they study and work hard.
It’s getting harder and harder to distinguish real news from parody.
Thanks for link.
Aside from the comical black vs. black aspect of this, there is too many foreign students filling our schools. We should be focusing first on any qualified US student, US citizens. Even if they pay less than those foreign students. America First should apply here.
Yes it is.
Ungandans are wonderful friends. Yet they too are perplexed by the American black. After Idi Amin and a hefty Aids epidemic in Uganda, they have been through the mill.
My Kenyan neighbors feel the same; even the lower-status folks like the nannies for the Kenyan professionals. Direct quote from a fully employed, blue-collar Kenyan (naturalzed American citizen): "When I need to get something done, I look for a white person!"
I understand this. The African students are literate, speak English well and have British accents. They study hard and don’t join SJW causes. In other words they won’t become hoodrats whining about how they are victims and they can’t be relied on to bite the hand of Whitey who gave them the opportunity to come to the USA. These people have lived with REAL poverty and oppression not the fake American version.
Not suprising that this is happening at Cornell. It definitely feels the second tier Ivy thing—(listen to We Didn’t Go To Harvard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Rjk1WGHp8 ) but tries to make people work really hard to make up for it. Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Berkley, and Chicago have the inside track for the best of the affirmative action candidates, which leaves the quality institutions behind them scrambling. If you’re urban, you probably won’t like Ithaca. If you’re rural, you probably won’t either. Full disclosure—I’m an alumnus.

African and Caribbean students are probably passing the entrance exams.
See my post 33. Finding truly qualified ones who don’t have better offers is likely the problem.
Oh, it’s the usual “I’m blacker than you, therefore I have suffered and done without more than you, therefore, I’m owed more than you!”
Lemme see...the “gimmie dat” attitude vs. the “gimme a chance to prove myself” attitude. I’ll take more Africans.
The few times I use the “N” word it refers to ATTITUDE and BEHAVIOR.
My Nigerian friends are high-end-online friendships with several princes.
What a bunch of RACISTS !
