🌍Y’all had 166 years as the biggest continent to bring the entire diaspora back “home”. Generations of people would have loved to be connected to the continent. But, y’all done came here and showed out… BE CLEAR, #ADOS identity is not based in skin color… 1/8
While that is the tie that may bind us together, our familial experiences have been fundamentally different. #ADOS ancestors were beaten, raped, lynched, murdered, maimed and the like, in order to prove that G-D would make a way for their generations…2/8
We are their wildest dreams come true, and we haven’t even been included yet! Every major city in America has a celebration for every “AA” group, except #ADOS Y’all use colloquialisms and food to pretend to relate and only like our culture for monetary gains, it seems! 3/8
Why would @Harvard not want to celebrate our heritage? After all y’all business school students have made several #billion $ off our cousins. How could the @ShorensteinCtr and @Kennedy_School use @twitter as a lone study point for empirical research at an elite institution? 4/8

I and several members of may family are not only #ADOSAF but also #Veterans who have deployed in the name of #America 5/8

Thank you for listening. RMB, we want to be able to parse out numbers for our ethnic identity just like everybody else in the #Diaspora gets to do. And BE CLEAR, we been shown y’all respect (pan-Africa), but y’all kids is disrespectful I’m out! I’m #ADOSAF ❤️y’all ✌🏾8/8
