Pan Africanicanism works when folks have a common interest. However blacks of the diaspora and in Africa have very different interest due to different life experiences and culture.
go easy with them. AAs are not very different from their white compatriots.
they both have a narrow view of the world and a self imposing cultural attitude.
i guess that comes with the "being american" thing.
they are both full of hypocritical talking points.
This is very true, and sadly plenty of black Americans do not see this. The average black American have a lot more in common with your average white American. Both do have very narrow but critical views which they deem are superior to anyone else. I decided to give you a reputation point on this.
I can say that black Americans have a slight difference than white Americans such as politics and culture, like black Americans are culturally conservative, while being politically democrat, while black immigrants and their off-springs tend to be far more liberal culturally.

Are you sure about that? Have you heard very many West Africans living in the USA on their views of their children marrying people outside of their culture and also their views on homosexuality and other things such as sexual harassment. If you have the opportunity to hear them discussing these matters among themselves their views on numerous social issues are quite shocking.

You know Black Americans are not the borg and don’t all feel the same way. Ditto
For any other group of people.
Part of the reason the US is in such disaster is identity politics.
Btw, I met a Fulani Muslim from Nigeria who thought that unwed mother’s should be put to death due to adultery.
He was fresh off the boat and by now if he has remained in the US he has learned not to say such things.

There are African Americans and other diaspora in Africa and Africans come to the US. You have lots of Africans in Europe and some AAs in Europe. This doesn’t mean that all
Black people are together or ever will be, but there’s definitely diversity of experience among people of African descent.
I don't think anyone would shed a tear for the slaver sidekicks from the man-children who were in leeague with the colonizers & imperialists, though with the collapse of revolutionary socialism, those remaining two had a wide open mark.
The global plantation system is focusing on either portraying the descendants of the settler castes & classes as "oppressed Nordic coloured people of colour" or the fixation on the eur-african & eur-asian.
There is no longer any need for a middle man, especially with technology & the previous & current generation's acceptance of globalist plantation identity politics.

In the days to come, anyone wishing to criticize Meghan Markle, the American actress set to marry into Britain’s royal family, will have to contend with Tshego Lengolo, an 11-year-old black girl and newly minted monarchist.
When she looks at Ms. Markle, Tshego sees a version of herself, new to England, trying to find a place among its racial codes.
Friends sometimes argue with her: Ms. Markle is so light-skinned she could pass as white, they say, and, anyway, what relevance does the royal family have in your everyday life?
Young black women with no particular interest in the royal family gathered around their television screens and watched with excitement as the beautiful biracial American actress walked down the aisle of St. George’s Chapel and took up her newly found status as the Duchess of Sussex. They hoped that her union with the popular prince would mark a new era for the royal family, one that would usher in fresh and more relatable values.

Correct. Not only is there diversity between the various black ethnic groups but even WITHIN these groups tremendous diversity exists. This based on social class/education, geography, ideology, attitude to religion, etc.
Such toxicity!!! I knew they were anti Hispanic immigrant but its kind of surprising they are anti Black immigrant as well.
The greatest hostility they have is in fact towards black immigrants. Quite silly when we consider that these are often blended populations in places like Miami, NY and Boston where black immigration is over 100 years old!
