    I'm here now. You have to be careful what truth they tell us. Dark skinned people were the original turks they are only so light skin due to the obvious reasons. The narrative of being descendants of slaves helps people class themselves as such. Slaves came in many shades. Nubians shared their knowledge and wealth helped them to develop their country. Cleopatra came here for here honeymoon as the Turks welcomed the Queen and her peoples influence.

    @Lil Uzi 100 0 But to answer your question we African Americans love our African Brothers all over the world this I can say for the whole race and for those who do not know that is only because of their ignorance. Most African-Americans respect the blackness of our skin no matter what part of the world it is... All about great African-American thinkers who are scholars and have written many books on the history of Africa and African people all over the world will attest to this...read many books written by African-American thinkers and you will see this to be true. From Australia to Britain to Turkey to Africa,let no one ever tell you that African Americans do not love all African people all over the world because African people in America we are mixed from every African tribe there is in Africa it would be like hating ourselves 10 times over.

    @General Guile The thing here is the guys in europe lack masculinity and have a small sex organ. So naturaly euro girls love to be together with black males as they're far more physically stronger than a white male. If you look at Turkish males, we don't lack anything we're filled with testosterones. So i don't see a reason turks will blend, ofcourse it will happen in smaller scales but not like you're talking about going down
