"A queen"!!! Which country?

Even the Kardishians (at-least they are on cam on a show) aren't as obsessed as your queen. May she find a man like Kanye west or a Lamar Oden and tell her story on cam. Amen.

Waryaa aflagaadada dhaaf. Our Armenian Godess motivates blacks to aim higher, that is why we are sending 40,000 sexy Armenian girls to Somalia to persuade these niggers to stop fighting and make love to them. They will bring a new make love to busty queens revolution to Somalia. Here you are comparing these angels to a Somali chick from a housing project called Riverside in Minnesota. Ina adeer, repent.

Couple of generations ago in America they used to supplant the word 'Black' with 'Negro'. She is confused about the two terms. Somalis are black by any definition of the word but certainly not an extraction from the negroid stock.

That said, she is a bit full of herself. I got news for you little woman, we all have jobs (six figures, properties in 3 continents), cars (personally I drive a 2012 BMW 7-series), and earn an education from an Ivy League institution in America.

Here in London I always tick the 'African-Other' box, but sometimes I'm seen as black when I go about the town, which I don't mind because I share the same complexion with most 'black' people. However black people themselves recognise me to be different from their own, they can tell a Somali and I can tell from them, so I don't see the problem.

Julkimi, you're the physical manifestation of the term Woman, it's a compliment. :Obama:

I truly get offended if someone mistakes me for some other ethnicity. The worst is when some Somalis think you should be glad for getting mistaken, no self-worth at all :wtf:

Not only do White people see you as Black, the rest of the world does too. You know what's worse? White people that know Somalis detest them more than Black Brits or African Americans. You can physically distinguish between a German, Italian and Hungarian but they're all still considered white. It's exactly the same with Black people. "I'm prettier than the African American women" - Since when does attractiveness contribute to racial classification? Beyonce is often considered the flagship of the African American woman of this generation and last time I checked she's gorgeous as fuck. Same applies with Kelly Rowland and countless other African Americans.

Somalis in the diaspora pay attention!

If you ever carry out census questionnaire or other type of applications make sure:

You tick the Other section and write Somali next to it. This is important so that we can know the Somali population. If you tick the Black African box then we will not know our exact population.

So make sure you always:

Tick Others and write Somali next to it!
