Give thanks Eja for sound reasoning without insulting.
I have said it before and I will say it again. It is only right that Black Afrikan people be at the head of Black Afrikan movements. Just as a Japanese man should be the head of a Japanese movement.
I just dont vibe with the 100% Afrikan premise. We cant dismiss a conscious brother like a Malcolm X because of who his forefather choose to mate with. His works from his experience of a black man living in America is qualification enough to serve as a leader for black people who are dealing with the same system. This is why I mentioned something about merit previously.
So yes a blue-black conscious Afrikan would be ideal as the head of a Black Afrikan movement but that doesnt mean we dismiss brown skin people who are able to lead also.
That is my view on this matter.
