  As a Black American who just left Rwanda (Kigali and Kibagabaga) last month, I can say with certainty every Rwandan I met loved us. The ladies loved us too. We visited a few clubs, ate at some good restaurants we had a good time. Most of them can’t speak English well so this was a hurdle but don’t take these two women serious as ignorance is everywhere on this planet. I’ve been all over Africa from Kenya to Nigeria and can say the overwhelming MAJORITY of the ppl I’ve met LOVE us black Americans. Have never had an issue. Most are just ignorant to our history and culture like we are to theirs. B1 Family 💪 💯

  As a Jamaican 🇯🇲 living in America 🇺🇸 I can say that young lady is misinformed she need to travel. Black Americans are one of the strongest most resilient people you will ever meet very brilliant and are some of the most beautiful black people on planet earth 🌍 until you’ve walked in their shoes you can’t really say anything. I love my Black American brothers and sisters. Notice I didn’t say African American. I refer to them as Black Americans or simply Americans even tho our roots are from African descendants. Aka Slaves. We’re black and proud. ✊🏽

  She's NEVER met one and basing her decision off of movies? Then she's not too bright.

  This is why delineation is important. Black Americans brothers and sisters put your people first and stop thinking that all black people are the same because we are not.

  Kendrick Lamar said it best, "they not like us". A mouth full of truth.

  I’m Ethiopian, and to my Black American brothers and sisters, know this: any kind of ‘hate’ you hear is rooted in deep misinformation and ignorance, not inherent dislike. In truth, many people in Africa admire and emulate you, even if they don’t realize it. Africa has long faced systemic disenfranchisement and lack of education, and a lot of the judgment you see comes from outdated stereotypes and skewed portrayals by western media, which kinda goes both ways to be honest. <br><br>That said, I can assure you anyone who is remotely informed and educated about blk history and culture respects and values what you’ve endured and achieved for Black people globally. All that will be more apparent as Africa continues to grow and educate itself. Just keep that in mind 💯

  I visited Rwanda in 2023. I met some wonderful and beautiful people. I also met some Rwandan people who were ignorant to the history of black Americans who were enslaved in the antebellum south

  This is like how when I first got to the states and Americans thought what they saw on tv was real life. Folks asking me if I played with lions and zebras. It’s a shame folks think like this with all this new information and social media.

  They don’t like egotistical people. I can respect that.
