Troof be painful, yo.
I have an African co-worker who is always butting heads with “African American” workers; he fled Liberia when the “Amero-Liberians” (descended from freed American slaves) were being massacred by the “Afro-Liberians” (whose descendants had never left Africa) during the civil war in the early 1990s. The former had run the country and businesses, while the latter griped about economic disparity; he is disgusted when he sees “Afro-Liberian” traits in his “African-American” co-workers.
