Well if you would quit being such a Uncle Tom race traitor house nigger and started reading some black authors you would understand

Which country?

>>9745695
I'm from Sudan and he's from Mali

>>9745670
If someone IRL accuses you of "shilling", immediately cut off all contact with them as they are a retard.

>>9745670
Well bravo, you understand that literature is a shortcut to the universal through the specific. Not many people do, regardless of race.

>>9745711
Where are you now?

>>9745670
Your friend is right desu. You should stop relishing the power structure that the white man set up and embrace your roots.

>>9745740

You are very smart, friend.

This. OP you are a traitor to your race and culture. And what is worse, no matter how much you wanna switch this is still what they really think about you:

>You gold chain wearing, fried chicken and biscuit eating monkey, ape, baboon, big thigh, fast running, high jumping, spear chucking, three-hundred-and-sixty-degree basketball dunking, titsun, spade, mulignan. Go the fuck back to Africa. Go the fuck back to Africa.

So think about it, fucking sellout

Where these people came from? Are you trolls?

>>9746457
You really believe these stormfags actually reads anything outside of trolling in here? I've argued with these cunts in one of their bait threads and the fucking droopy eyed mutants can't even tell the difference between the words 'similar' and 'identical'. These retards are as inbred as they come and none of their inputs should be taken seriously.

Tell him he's a cunt.

In Africa oral culture is still really strong, and that is a nice way to learn about yourself (just by listening to your family), but orientalists are great if you want to read actual literature, since the lack of strong, secular, popular written culture doesn't really allow black Africa to produce something that can be as good as what yuros write.

He's right on the colonialist shilling though, but if he reads post-colonialist bullshit he's the one that is fooling himself the most, by thinking that African literature (in written form) is good.

>>9745670
>tfw post-colonialist literature ruined my friend's ability to immerse himself in really good literature
It wasn't post-colonialist literature I'm afraid, statistically the main culprit is bound to be his IQ. You're just an exception and you should stop having black friends. Try your best to act white and maybe you won't end up as miserable as your peers.

>>9746075

Why though.

>>9745670
So is it any good? The way you describe makes it seem very interesting

this thread is not healthy

>>9745670
Thanks for the recommendation, friend.

Also, don't mind (or feed) the /pol/trolls.

>>9745670
Shitposting aside, It's sad that people would turn away good literature on account of race. Culture, however, is different. Your friend sounds like a dumb nig, and you should help him see the light

Only a nig would be so strangely aggressive as you are now. That's what's so weird about niggers, they process the modern world as if it's the jungle.

>>9745670
Ok OP, serious response here.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with reading and enjoying colonialist literature
There is a lot to be learned about perspective from reading people who hate you, and how they rationalized the things they did or their support of persons who did awful things
Don't let anyone tell you that you shouldn't read anything you enjoy for any reason

>>9747309
>decolonize your mind
I actually like that phrase but not in a racial context, more like a near opposite political, "remove post modern brainwashing" sense. It says a lot in a few words.

>>9748325

I don't get it why Americans use 'Uncle Tom' as a placeholder for race traitor. This book somehow made its way into my house (I'm Italian) and I read it when I was a teenager and Uncle Tom is actually a dude who risked his life to help escaped slaves. Where does this meme come from?

>>9746075
t. John Tuturro

>>9748939
Copyright didn't exist then, so a bunch of hacks wrote books called "Uncle Tom's Cabin" that were pro-slavery.

>>9748939
I dunno 'cause I haven't read it, but it's a really old idiom. It's probably been in use since at least the 1920s. I bet Wiki has the whole thing broken down, though.

I like you.

>>9748714
I promise I´m being serious too. Do you think that all colonialists in Africa hated Africans? I suspect some were just misguided but meant well.

>>9745670
The "Darkest Africa" trope was an extremely effective narrative shortcut to combine realism and fantasy. The pre-globalized European had little epistemic access to the goings-on in Africa, making it effectively a blank slate for the pre-globalized European author. Contemporary writers are forced to use other planets or utterly invented settings, which forfeits the verisimilitude of groundedness that "Darkest Africa" tales exploited. You're on point, OP. Your friend is losing out on a ton of great literature (the height of which is probably Heart of Darkness). Literary tribalism is provincialism of the soul. Ressentiment is neither just nor beautiful.

>>9749377
>Do you think that all colonialists in Africa hated Africans?
probably not 'hate', but i'd reckon a majority considered them to be inferior as an ethnic group

honestly, I don't browse /pol/ and I'm not some epic alt righter but I think 'decolonization' was a huge mistake. the African nations were clearly not ready to handle the responsibility of running their own countries. I think we shouldve went for a more gradual release of power.

>>9749517
I think Rhodesia had the fairest and most reasonable arrangement with the kaffir.
