What Black Americans Are Doing To Somali's is PLAIN EVIL!

What Black Americans Are Doing To Somali's is PLAIN EVIL!

In this video, Oshay Duke Jackson addresses the complex and often tense relationship between the Black American and Somali communities, particularly in light of recent events in Minneapolis. As a Somali woman’s plea for a "ceasefire" between the two groups goes viral, Oshay breaks down why many Black Americans are responding with indifference or skepticism. He explores the history of "othering"—where some in the Somali community have distanced themselves from the Black American identity—and how that lack of historical "goodwill" is manifesting now that the community is facing external pressures and political scrutiny. The discussion touches on the "sweat equity" of social movements, the difference between trendy solidarity and genuine community ties, and the importance of investing in relationships before you actually need them. Oshay uses humor and cultural commentary to explain why "holding your own sack" has become the consensus for many who feel that the call for unity is only coming now that there's a crisis. It’s a deep dive into tribalism, cultural boundaries, and the reality of social leverage in modern America. #OshayDukeJackson #SomaliCommunity #BlackAme
