Who would you marry:
1-Somali Bantu who's Muslim
2-African American who's Muslim?
90% of Somali women would pick #2 over #1.

Snowflakes if they go for a decent Muslim its alright, but if they go for one of these 50 cent wannabes they will be considered as a love in the local community.
Emperior ur right I see anyone who is born in Somalia and speaks Somali as a Somali

You probably seen them, but wouldnt' recognize them, because the bantus in America fit in very well and they look like just African American, but the accent is killing them. I once had this bantu friend with me, and this Somali girl though he was an african American and as soon he talked, she started laughing and said she though he was African American

There are only about 12,000 Bantus in the West. They all went to the United States b/c the Clinton administration wanted to help out refugees. They've been living in the US since 2003.

Ive never seen a Somali Bantu ..
Hmmm but My mother told me that they arent technically
Somalia They were slaves imported from West Africa and
they adapted our culture Hmm ,,, But apparently they are located in the
southern part of Somalia

the first ive heard of bantus was when i went to Somalia..some people refer to them as sangadhudi..in fact i think i fed one basically these poeple were escaping konfur and this man came and he was talking..i couldnt understand much of what he was saying..so what i did was i went and got him some laxoox and shah and he ate it
Im not really sure he was bantu..i think he was...can someone tell me if they are also called Reer wajid/wajir ??
