I know you Black, but you ain't Black, Black". Best line ever.

It's real life. My family immigrated from Tanzania (East Africa) when I was a child. I've legit had my Black American friends tell me in conversations "you're black, but you ain't black black." Me with 100% Bantu blood ain't "black black."

The stereotypical "African accent" in the West is the southern Nigerian accent.

I'm a black guy in America, watching a black British comedian impersonate an African, while in my Japanese car at a Chinese restaurant on a Korean handheld..

Weird moment.

You don't have to be British to be treated this way. I am a 37 year old Black American male, I only speak standard American English because that is how I was raised as a homeschool kid. But I grew up in a ghetto in South Philadelphia, so my entire childhood consisted of me having to fend off other Black kids who constantly tried to fight me or mock me because I was accused of "talking White." As an adult who no longer lives in the hood, I don't have to deal with people trying to fight me at this stage in my life, but I do not have Black friends because of too many bad experiences with being judged. Black Americans tend to be very tolerant and respectful of other ethnicities and dialects, but they are extremely critical and judgemental towards their own kind. The reason they behave that way isn't because it's "Black culture", the problem originated from social engineering because Black Americans had been oppressed for so long that they have been conditioned to reject anything that resembles the institutions that discriminated against them. I understand the reason why I was ostricized from the Black community, but they need to learn that behaving that way only helps the racist entities that they want to oppose. Because along with deciding not to adopt proper English, the same type of Black Americans also avoid careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). It goes hand-in-hand: a racist is usually also a mysognist; likewise, a Black American who mocks educated vernacular of other dark-skinned people are also the Black Americans who generally don't seek higher education for themselves.

Black American here. I love this brother man. He did a good job with our accents. Toooo funny!

I'm British (and white if it matters) but that happened to me too. I went into a McDonalds and ordered a Big Mac meal and the girl behind the counter called over about 3 or 4 colleagues and told me "say something again". You guys speak our language, yet you act like you've never heard an English person before?!

As a Black British teenager I'd like to state that the best thing about living in London is that after school you can walk into a chicken shop and buy 3 wings and chips for a £1 or a portion of wings if you don't want the chips.
