Tether

A word used by Foundational Black American cultists to identify all black immigrants in the United States of America, they are seen as threats coming into the nation as a replacement of Black descendants of US Chattel Slavery.

Some schools of thought say the real tethers are visibly Latino immigrants, both legal and illegal, coming in with anti-black racist views against immigrant and non-immigrant Black Americans.

These tethers are eating off our plates and then trying to erase us.

Tether

A term used by African and Caribbean immigrants to describe a small subset of African Americans that identify as FBA (Foundational Black American) who deny being the same race as an Africans because of their European last names, and believe Africans & Caribbeans are a bigger threat than the white supremacy that killed Martin Luther King. Because tether was often used as an insult against them, African Americans (FBA) and their leader Tariq Nasheed "reclaimed" the word. Tether can now be seen used amongst African Americans to insult Africans & Caribbeans.

African Americans who believe their ancestors were not Africans are tethers.
