Opposite actually. My in laws are Ibo and I consider myself an American, but racially most would categorize me as "black".
a very long way and frankly it's too late now
a few years back you woulda been pandered to ad nauseum with race platitudes and Martin Luther King worship
our issues are not going to be settled now the easy way
i hope things work out for you
i”m extremely pessimistic and fearful that America is not going to work out quite like a Miller Light commercial with every hue drinking responsibly in the glow of the campfire
and frankly our black or whatever name you'd prefer population is going to be a sidenote...it's about more than that
but we are lining up largely along race lines with some of each on both sides but still largely defined by it
these things never end well
I spent years in Haiti, Colombia and Sierra Leone...freepers as a rule are very naive and usually give the answer ..especially to a minority freeper...that they think will win applause..usually deferential
I see bad times ahead, I will be long dead but my descendants will likely experience serious pain and suffering.
Will it be worth it?
I applaud you trying with FIL but Igbos are a proud stock...and a bit snobby about their high rank in the west African tribal pecking order...so good luck.
But if he knows the Biafra War then he knows what i fear here, and conservatives will be the Igbo in that one...hope we fare better*
