Get the Shotgun afro mug.When a arabic girl thinks she's black. She tries to convince everyone that she's black, because it sucks to be arab. She's the type of girl to cry at night, and wake up everyday hoping that her skincolor changed. These are the types of people to die early in life.
Aya: I'm afro iraq, so i'm basically black
Other people: No you're not hoe ass
Aya: It's called afro iraq syndrome motherfucker
Other people: No you're not hoe ass

Get the Afro iraq syndrome mug.The name for a person of African origin that lives in an anglicized nation and most likely has Anglo blood but not always. They speak English and are culturally Protestant and Anglo. Jamaicans are some of the more tolerable Afro-Anglos.
Look at those annoying Afro-anglos over there trying to convince those Puerto Ricans and Dominicans they’re really Black.

Get the limp afro mug.Afro South Indians and Afro Asiatics are people who are heavily melanated in complexion bearing dark brown, medium brown and light brown hues showcasing various diversified backgrounds with melanated Americans in America, both groups have more in common than people may realize making them equal.
South India, also known as Peninsular India, is the southern part of the peninsular Deccan Plateau in India encompassing the states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Telangana as well as the union territories of Lakshadweep and Puducherry, occupying 19.31% of India's area (635,780 km2 or 245,480 sq mi) and 20% of India's population.

Afro-South Indians happen to be Melanated. We are born in India. We speak Hindi, Sanskrit, and English. Our culture back home consists of Vedic, Hindu, and Buddhist religions. We embrace being Afro-South indian and Afro-Asiatic because it's something that's been forbidden to celebrate loudly because of conlonization and assimilation into white spaces, but we're going to acknowledge our true heritage. We're no longer ashamed. We're Very proud of our roots. Just like melanated Americans, we are one in the same. No more ignorance, prejudice, and self-hatred. We are apart of the melanated community and will unite as one. There are more similarities than differences amongst us. Our ethnicity is Afro South Indian/ Afro Asiatic, our culture is indian culture and our race is melanated .

Get the Afro South Indian mug.I first heard the hyphenated word, Afro-tech, being used in a song called “Legacy” from Sean Carter’s 13th album (4:44).
In one of his lyrics Jay Z says - “That's major, just like the Negro League.”
Meaning: In the late 1800s, Blacks were not accepted in baseball, which eventually led to the formation of the Negro Leagues in 1887. Many leagues would form and collapse due to attendance issues, but the most reputable league was the Negro American League, which lasted for almost three decades. Even though Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in 1947, these leagues lasted almost two more decades because of racial tension in the United States.(Genius.com)
Then, in a following verse Hov goes on to say - “There was a time America wouldn't let us ball.”
Meaning: Jay Z is creating a connotation between the previous exclusion of black people from American sports, to now the exclusion of black people from the tech world. (Genius.com)
I’d actually go further and say the exclusion of not just black people, but any person who are the consumers using the tech however not being able to profit from having the opportunity to create the tech.

Example:
You: You don’t have socials?
Me: Nope.
You: You a psycho?
Me: Lol, maybe.
You: That creepy ass laugh isn’t helping. Explain yourself?
Me: Look, using that tech is going to get you hurt (and I mean that as a double entendre).
You: How so?
Me: Not only from the amount of time you waste on it, but even to how it makes you feel.
You: Well, I make money off of it. And when I’m not, it’s entertainment.
Me: (Laughing) Okay.
You: I do.
Me: Okay, I get it makes you money. I’m not mad at it, at least you are doing that much.
You: I am.
Me: But you still use “their” platform in hopes to make some money. And “they” sit back and make billions, each and every day.
You: (Pondering)
Me: Mhm, and that profit is made all off of you.
You: Damn, never really thought of it like that.
Me: None of us do. But worst of all, that ain’t even “their” end goal.
You: Wait, what?
Me: But that’s for another time.
You: Fuck, all that tech ain’t worth what it is.
Me: Nope, it ain’t. And on top of that how many of those tech Startup Founders, CEO’s and, or Board Member’s look like us, or come from where we come from?
You: Prolly none.
Me: So, they get you hooked while you like sharing pics, videos, letting your thoughts out in to the world, but really…
You: (Cutting me off)… but really, I’m getting used and being left.
Me: Afro-tech.
You: Well, fuck all that. Imma start something and get them hooked.
Me: Oh really?
You: Yeah, Payback’s a Bi$ch.
Me: (Smiling) Time to ball!
You: You don’t have socials?
Me: Nope.
