Do You Use the N-word? Africans & African Americans | Truth or Drink | Cut 

Make a asian american vs asian, European americans vs european lets get a whole series going

Koach and the Nigerian woman were everythingggg. Love the conversation they had about the n word. He didn’t come at her disrespectfully when he found out she said it, and she received what he said as well

i love the nigerian girl she is open minded and not immediately defensive when someone disagrees with her i wish i had friends like her

“My tribe is Compton. Aha! And I stand on THAT!” I spit out my drink 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This was so entertaining and informative! I really liked how Koach was not afraid to speak his mind, and how the woman from Nigeria gave such valid and respectable points when she disagreed. Overall, I feel like everyone is a great listener and really dove deep into these stereotypes.

I would love to see this with Mexicans vs Mexican Americans. Seeing the differences between the cultures even though it’s the “same” is sort of shocking

Just wanted to say that the Nigerian woman is STUNNING. The beauty, the intelligence and eloquence, the makeup, the clothes, the hair 🎉 STUNNING

I love how everyone was able to come to the table respectfully, with open minds, and open hearts to hear each other out, while receiving each other's different perspectives and opinions. Conversations like these help bridge the gap!

This was enjoyable! As a Ghanaian, I really hate that there seems to be animosity between some Africans and African-American. It’s so sad like, these are our brothers and sisters taken from us and I will always show love to them because we are one just separated

“You got 30 seconds to try!” The way she started just pouring the shot immediately 😂😂

I would love to see Caribbean-born & Caribbean descendants. It would be interesting to see the similarities and the differences between the cultures.

I didn't grow up around Africans but in adulthood I encountered many in college and the community I moved to. This will sound weird but now I may kind of know what bi-racial people feel like. SOME people refuse to respect my experience as someone that descends from slavery and who can trace their first ancestor in the Americas back to the early 1700's. We were forced to create our own culture. I wish people could see that two things can exist at once. We are Americans who have been in this country before it became the US and was still a colony BUT our music rhythms, phonics of AAVE, most of our genetics are West and Central African. It's an odd space to be in when you're in diverse environments.

I’m sorry but the smile and vibe of the Nigerian woman here is breathtaking. She’s extremely attractive.

Koach & the girl from Nigeria really made me feel seen. Growing up darkskin was NOT for the weak. My bullying was so bad i had a fear of public speaking because of the skin color harassment from other black kids, which in turn made white & hispanic kids think they can ridicule me as well.

Each and everyone of the ppl participating in this, were so dope and engaging! Love tge respect tgat all showed throughout, for each other and tge time they took to understand the other. Great job! I look forward to more of these💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

From the beginning "To being black" all the way to the two of them singing the Tupac song, this had the right feel! Very interesting and respectful both ways 👍🏾

"My tribe is Compton" That was amazing

Im a Black American who moved to Guadeloupe, a French island in the Caribbean. Here, they don’t use the N word. The ones who do are heavily influenced by American culture

The African Americans kinda ignore that people in Africa where still slaves in their own land even without being transported to other countries

I love this setting very much. People dose not have to agree to the same thoughts but understand more of other aspects. You guys are very brave❤

Loved the conversation. I would've liked to hear how Africans feel about Black Americans imitating African accents or wearing traditional African clothing.

"I'm sorry what" lmao same

I love this! Make it a series. Do Italian American vs Italian. This would be so interesting to watch. It feel like it would get spicy

Keep grinding bro your work is very great I like it so much.

This was a deep talk but conversations like these need to be talked about, we deserve better Fr ❤

I think being able to differentiate between African cultures is mostly about exposure. I live in the Washington DC area and have met many Nigerians, Ghanaians, Kenyans, and Eritreans. After a while, you can tell them apart as easily as you can tell Europeans apart. But you need to meet people from these cultures to be able to do that.

This was a good one, would love to see a few more of this series.

Really insightful episode !!

Koach and the gorg woman from Nigeria was the best discussion I’ve watched in a longgg time. That is what respect looks and sounds like. I’m just some pale white girl from Britain but this is the content that I never know that I needed👏🏼

Abdul is such a bright kid. He’s going places. Informed, educated and empathetic …

Loved this! Do more

Lol I loved the girl in the blue dress and the guy in the hat! This is how we should be with one another, not beefin. They see us as the same anyway, and if we being honest, we are the same.

As a half Nigerian & half Black-American who was raised Black-American, I loved this interaction. We need more honestly, for those who want to see & love unity. It would be ludacris for me to say, all of us care for one another. I see the issues even amongst my own families smh.

As an eastern European dude, having met black people in america and africans in my own country, I feel like they're incredibly different. In fact, I even feel black americans are more similar to white americans than to africans, and white americans more similar to black ones than europeans. That's why racism in the US is so ironic to me

this was really informative, as someone from europe, i did not know all these specifics, but i'm happy to learn tho

I wish this video was longer!!! Such a great conversation!!!

Being born in the mid 90s in the U.K., growing up I rarely heard the n word. None of my family, relatives or friends used it, and as years passed and people became more (I’ll reluctantly use the word “indoctrinated” by American media) I started to hear it a lot more and it kinda irritated me because it wasn’t really a part of Black British culture, but we spend so much time copying black Americans these days that it’s part of the lexicon more than ever now. I asked my dad if black guys in the 60s-70s were calling eachother n***a, he said no, I asked my uncle if they were doing it the 80s and 90s, again, it was no. It gained more popularity in the last 10-15 years. But it’s an American import. It’s not something black Brits collectively used to greet eachother. We may share the skin but we don’t share the culture of needing to flip the n word to become a term of endearment amongst ourselves, we have our own slang. Flipping the term was never a discourse in the U.K. like it was in the states, and anybody who says “ni**a” all the time might be one of _those_ black Brits, you know the the kind! The kind who likes to cosplay as a black American, who spontaneously breaks into an American accent from time to time, (esp if they’re cracking a joke for example or copying something from viral Black American social media trends in the states). They think it’s cool, they like the music, the accent, and they want access to the cultures and they believe their skin tone gives them a pass even though we’re not the same culturally whatsoever. I’ll never tell someone not to say it though, it’s just annoying, be yourself!! Esp bc you can tell the types of black Brits who seem to have downloaded their entire personality from black American social media. I always found it a little embarrassing. 🙄

Can we get more coach and the lady he was with in videos more together? I love them as a duo

This was actually so nice to watch 😭💕

loved the vibe koach and the woman and the two dudes had ❤

I think people HIGHLY overestimate how often Africans are viewed as model citizens. The majority of non black people don't differentiate us in any way. Racism is strong and solely based on how we look and both African Americans and Africans look the same

y'all should drop a full version of these convos between all the parties. Blackness is so varied and beautiful that I'm jealous of those who get to realize this for the first time. I'm also glad to be able to revel in it whenever I think about it.

This truly warmed my heart but I think we could have went deeper and asked more/ different questions.

As a black American the model minority that is placed upon African people is flat out the truth. I don't understand why model minority is seen as something negative though. As a black person I would want to be viewed as a person who is respectable.

It just gladens my heart watching this. We can have really sweet conversations that do not seek to diminish or disrespect our different histories and experiences. My day is made watching this!

africans not being able to say the n word is kinda goofy to me bc at the end of the day we both african and come from the same place and look the same. An african person can come to american and still be called the n word because it’s a slur used towards BLACK PEOPLE WHO LOOK BLACK

Girl in blue was so patient and gracious tbh

THE BEST TRUTH OR DRINK OF ALL TIME! You all really captured it.

A UK version of this would be so funny to watch 😂

glad this video was made, it has always annoyed me that so many people just use the term "african american" as a synonym for "black" when not all black people are american

I absolutely love the polite lovely discourse between them. Everyone’s like “we’re in it TOGETHER” 💀

Love this episode! A very necessary conversation. Could go on and on.

As an Afro Latina, I would love to see this but with us included as well, I think it’s make for a very fruit discussion!

Not him gatekeeping the n word as if us Africans don’t get called that also in different languages💀💀

My tribe is compton! Lmao 🤣 30 sec in and im laughing. Man he was with the quickness lol

I loved this, very insightful!!

Such great pairings on this one. Well done! Might there be a part 2?

Wish I could have been a participant in this. Love this kind of content. These kind of conversations are needed and will help bring understanding on both parts.

As an African!! N word don’t mean nothing to me!! We don’t used that in my country.

I, too, am first generation & Igbo 🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿 This was fun to watch!

Drop a part two or a longer cut of this video. Plus I'll echo the other comments where this needs to be a series featuring different combos of people. Love it.

The girl who said Côte d'Ivoire gained my respect immediatly after that

Senegalese "I was thinking of my twists😂"

I’m sorry but “Dark Vader” has me CRYINGGGGG

Wow! Thank you for making this a video! Awareness of topics like this is so interesting and honestly, eye-opening.

Koachs point about the n word really resonated with me because I am Nigerian and I m one of the Africans who consciously doesn’t say it because it never felt like it belonged to me but I felt kinda embarrassed about it especially with music/culture but this made me feel seen. Never had anyone else say it glad they did!!

There’s something about Koach that always brings me joy❤

As a Moroccan, I was so happy to hear even for a split sec my country's name being recognised as an African Country. A lot of Africans think that Morocco is an Arab country and refuse to recognise us as Africans only cause we speak Arabic and cause some of us are light skinned. But they tend to forget that Morocco was invaded by the Arabs and the iberians hence why some people's DNA are mixed. Overall tho, the country and its people are still African and we would love it if more people would start recognising it. Other than that, I loved this video, it was very fun to watch and at the same time it was very informative!

I really enjoyed this. I could see some couples and good friendships formed from this group. I like how open people were with listening and answering.

Some Black people from america seem to think that they are the only Black people on earth

This was a nice conversation and interest cultural difference. Thanks for the shows

I was raised here since I was in diapers proudly on the south side of Chicago , and all my friends were black American. Most of my ex bf’s were black Americans and my husband is black American, and one thing I can say is that my husband says the N word a lot , and his family calls me N word, my black American friends call me the N word, but I like to use ninja. I think it depends on how deeply involved you are in the black community here . My parents had been here for more years than me, and hardly know any black history, black terminologies or hood lingo. There was a vast language barrier with my parents , and I had to call them on their bs for not knowing anything about their black American kin 🤦🏾‍♀️ thank you for this dialogue

As the child of a Nigerian father and Southern Black American mother, this is interesting. This is bringing back some chaotic cultural arguments between my mama & daddy.🤣🤣 #Yoruba🇳🇬🇺🇸

❤ I love this! Seeing the original people unite warms my heart. Thank you for doing this.

That lady reminds me of Lizzo. She’s beautiful & seems so sweet and understanding. I want to be on one of these

Ngl i wanna see a Caribbean and African American episode

I absolutely loved this!!! Keep things like this coming 🙌 people need this type of education, myself included

I loved this so much. Please keep making more of these !!❤️❤️

This was great. Really insightful.

You did a real service by sharing your intersex journey with the world. Thank you, bless you, and you've got a great personality and sense of humor. You deserve everything you want in life.

A very interesting and needed conversation among Africans & African-Americans. Especially loved the dialogue between Koach and the woman from Nigeria. Although, I didn't agree with his opinion of Africans saying the n-word or how the police would view us totally separately from African-Americans, a great discussion all around.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode, everyone was so fun to watch. I hope to see them in future CUT episodes.

I enjoyed this video

“I don’t like it when Africans say it”am I the only African who took that to offence😭😭😭😭😭

This was so well casted! Loved the dialogue!

As a Nigerian, I loved this episode. It's interesting to see this cuz I been saying there's clear differences us but also some commonality as well. W video💯

5:40 bruhh put me onnnnn I got this. But fr, I loved this. No race is a monolith ❤ ugh, so many thoughts!!

This is a good one. Please do more conversation between Black Americans and Africans.

"If he has accent that will make him less dangerous." Seriously?

I’d love to do this or really just have a general convo with any African who is calm cool & collective as this bunch. I’m black, but sadly haven’t met and befriended any Africans. It’s nice to meet others from any background and have these conversations because the perspective you gain by having them and truly being open to hearing and learning from it is amazing, you can learn simple things you might not have thought about before.

1:02 "to being black" Yea.. racisim ain't gonna be solved in my lifetime.

Great video! Very entertaining & I never knew his real name was darth Vador lmao I always thought it was dark vador this whole time 😭

5:19 I’m sorry i don’t get the correlation, so bc my parents didn’t grow up saying it i cant? 😂

I’d be interested to see first generation immigrants and their children (either fully or half born of (a) first generation immigrant(s)) play truth or drink.

Tacita is a riot! This was a fun episode which brought up good points.

This was Really Good!! Thank you! ✊🏾👏🏽👏🏽💜

I don’t know about English speaking African countries, but in Francophone African countries, the n word was used by the colonizers and then during the time of decolonization, many Francophone African authors started using the word to redefine its meaning to the point where it became a casual word in the same way it has for African Americans (it is a different spelling though since it is in French). It did become a trend nowadays to use the n word in the English spelling but Africans definitely have a strong connection with the word.

Loved this video!!!! Shout out to all my Africans, Caribbeans, and Black people 💕💕🙌🏾

I really enjoyed the girl with the blue dress and the guy with the cap their discussion was interesting and insightful you can see that he got his point. Across and she understood where he’s coming from

Koach for the win AGAINNNNN!!! I love haw he isnt afaid to disagree..i could neverrrr lol
