Logically it makes no sense. His accent means he was either born in America or came at such a young age he picked up the language and culture naturally.


So HIS life experiences are the same as other Black men and he CHOSE to deal with it differently. And by differently I mean to condone it to some extent, excuse it to some extent and dismiss the same bigotry, racism he experienced along with every other black person in America.


His lineage in his life experience means nothing. If he was adopted by an FBA family and didn't know his own lineage, and went through the SAME life experiences, would he say  the thing? No. Even though he had a Nigerian lineage.


What gives me some hope is the response by the Nigerian-American sista checking him.
