Grammy-Award winning singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu professionally known as Burna Boy has lamented over racism amongst black people.
The singer took to Instagram to express his displeasure with an individual who misquoted his words. He emphasized how he tries to educate people about appreciating their roots as much as they do America.
Burna Boy rant about his words being misconstrued while preaching for African brotherhood worldwide.
In his words:
“It’s sad to see that in 2023 there are still such black people who would prefer we stay divided and conquered. maybe it’s my accent or something but I never said you are African and not American.
I also did not say Africa is part of Heaven. You deserve all the Land and reparations you want from America and I’m 100% in support of that.
All I’ve ever done is try to make you understand that you have Africa too that loves you and I believe coming together as brothers and sisters is the only way forward for US black people worldwide. You work against the progress of our people worldwide if your goal is to keep us divided.”
