But, again, this is ahistorical because the idea of a shared Blackness, a shared oppression, didn't really exist in Africa during colonialism, and in many ways and contexts it still doesn't (although I'm invested into Pan Africanism as a movement regardless.) You were part of your community and if you had some fucking asshole from another community as a prisoner of war, why the fuck not sell him into slavery, especially to protect your own? Sucks to suck; don't run up on my community.

Black Americans in particular are largely taught (by whites) that Africans "sold out their own," which engenders an animosity and spitefulness towards the Motherland that is both indicative of Kilmonger's fury and a bulwark against true African consciousness and solidarity in the wake of modern sociopolitical dynamics, but again it fundamentally doesn't make sense the moment you are able to conceive of Africa as a continent with literally thousands of different cultures who for most of their existence had no need to unite under a banner of skin color, because racism and thus our current understanding of race are specific social constructs that only came to exist to justify colonialism and divide the proletariat.

Just word salad gibberish, like always, no coherent thesis at all.
