Yo, I'm vexed at this. You hear me?
VEXED!!🀬
Listen, I'm not American, & I am new to Cali. But the places I've lived in the States (NY, Chicago, etc ) there weren't any Samoans or Pacific Islanders (that I was aware of). I only learned about them thru TV, especially in Wrestling.
I thought they were cool, especially after I moved out to Cali. They are very family oriented (which I appreciate), they practice & respect their culture (which is very important to me), & they always seem respectful whenever I see them in public, especially whenever I interact with them.
But the most important thing for me, is that they don't have a history of oppressing or exploiting Black people, the way EVERY other group/nationality/race does.
Which makes it all the more weird that they would teach their people these ideas about us.
So I did a little more research after watching this vid, & found this...
This is why its important to learn different languages. It frustrates me to no end, that Black people in Amerikkka only know English, & that they feel some sort of misguided pride in knowing the Massuh's tongue over others, when other groups here know at least 2 (sometimes 3) languages. Our ignorance is our disadvantage, but I digress...
So basically, this is their N-word for us.
As someone who has traveled & lived in several countries, I've heard variations of the N-word all my life... from Hei-Qui (Chinese), to Zinji (Arabic), to Negro/Negao (Spanish/Portugese), to Kaffir (South African, to Habasi (Hindu).
But now it looks like I'll be adding Meauli (Samoan) to my list.
Not only does this make me vexed, it makes me sad. Granted, I am not a POC'ist in the slightest, because I know that's a myth. But I did think that, as previously stated, Samoans & Blacks were, in not on a level of solidarity, then at least not on bad terms.
So as a Black man that is rather large & very distinctive looking, now I have to wonder if I've been called a Meauli without even knowing it πŸ€”
I've always known that the whole concept of POC solidarity has been a myth, but I did foolishly allow myself to believe that Pacific Islanders were the exception or the outlier.
Looks like John Henrik Clarke was right (not that I doubted him), when he said "we have no friends". πŸ˜’
Subsequently, this is all the more reason I need to leave Amerikkka. Not only does this place foster this way of thinking, but I truly don't think different groups are meant to live amongst each other. Never in the history of not only humanity, but of nature itself, have we seen large groups of races or species cohabitate peacefully, especially not for very long.
Thus, Amerikkka is a failed experiment in that regard.
