Brother,

The intellectual jostling was enjoyable, but found to be a conundrum of sorts, yet full of interesting facts presented by both sides. In my view, to argue we are Africans with Americanism is tantamount in its proof, while conversely arguing the case of us being Americans with Africanism, and vice versa. In other words, black people in America are descendents of Africans that survive under European dominated culture, and are considered Americans.

Furthermore, as did the questioners, I too agree, there is no appreciable difference between the arguments; one proves the other having the appearance of sameness or agreement. Brother, even you said, it’s a moot point but for cultural and conscious deprivation of the class(35 million Black Americans).

All in all, the dialogue does promote a much needed conversation of the affected class, along the order of Black Nationalism.
