silent-sistah Posted June 2, 2003 im really sorry to the few that aint. but y do somali's that live in america totally adopt to the culture and ways of the US? what r they feeding u? i mean, i spoke to a guy,(not long ago) and he called himself somali-american. the way he was talking was so patriotic i could not tell weather he really was a white-boy or not. i just wanna say, the west contributed to the wars in them african countries, (including ours) so when they pretend to help you out by giving you food couppons, dont talk like they giving you life.

shyhem Posted June 3, 2003 Are u suggestating life under the acacia tree is better than the oportunities we have in america.I can't be a hypocrite,i live in america and its in my best interest that i accept the reality sooner than later. I don't know what they are feeding us but the dollars seems to be keeping our folks in africa relatively happy for now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
