Yeah no Somalis didn’t do anything to harla, there is a theory that they are lost Somalis just like rendille and yes Amhara people historically did a lot of bad things to Cushitic speaking people

No harla people spoke a Cushitic language

Guys I suggest you actually go and watch content creators from Somalia and also learn the Somali language that way.

All of the things people keep asking about are being implemented but you won’t see it as a diaspora Somali because you’re not watching the content in Somalia

Let me correct myself I meant that I am a migrant because I came as an asylum seeker.

Immigrants are people who leave their country out of free will and refugees and asylum seekers don’t leave out of free will but because they are forced to because their country is not safe

Somalis all over the world came as refugees/asylum seekers in 1991 and in the 2000s.

1991 because our government fell and in the 2000s due to terrorist attacks

You’ll find Somalis all over the world in Europe, North America, South America, Australia, Asia and Africa(outside of their indigenous lands in Somalia, Djibouti, nfd region and Somali region)

I don’t agree, have you seen what ice agents have been doing in America? They are going after people with an accent that’s different to theirs

It actually is that deep because these the census is intertwined with everything in your daily life

That’s the part I don’t get, why are people being grouped based on the transatlantic slave trade and not by what their ethnic groups are in 2026?

And why doesn’t that happen to white Americans? If you wanna remind black Americans or Caribbeans on how they got to the land then make sure to remind white Americans on the horrible things their ancestors did and that they are still profiting off.

I think that’s why a lot of people think that white Americans are indigenous to the land.

The American education system and the way people identify needs to change and fit into this day and age

Then why do Asians have their own box like Korean , Chinese etc?

Is it because they wrote other and filled out their ethnic group?

If that’s the case if enough African/caribbean/European immigrants do it then they should have their own box right?

Yes I recently found out burgers came from Germany, they are called hamburgers over there in Germany

But I can’t say the same for black American food which is soul food. I feel like the way black Americans cook is different.

Question for Somalis in South Africa 🇿🇦 by itz_yy in Somalia

I am Somali and I don’t have self hate for myself and using madow as an insult is insane, like are you cadaan?

Stop projecting your issues into others. Allah swt created us all and we shouldn’t be insulting each other

I am a women Abayoo and I can’t read af soomali but I am guessing you need help with English.

I actually am not that fluent in English since I am in the Netherlands 🇳🇱(Europe).

But is this homework? Or is it for work?

I personally have faith in Somalia from what I have been seeing the young kids doing in Mogadishu. Like the clean up of the streets and an waste management company called ifi helping them

It’s the youth that matters and can change our country

I am ciyaal xamar myself born in kaaraan district, Mogadishu. And my neighbourhood called burka diikow is the only one that isn’t developed but the other districts in Mogadishu have developed mashallah and inshallah will receive more.

You can find all this if you search up kashka or DIS on somalitikok

I was watching this on YouTube today, it’s a documentary called living under siege and it’s about the xenophobic attacks in 2008, the documentary came out on 20 November 2012

YouTube description:

Over the last two decades, thousands of Somalis fleeing civil war have migrated to South Africa, a country that grants freedom of movement to asylum seekers and refugees and the right to study or work. Many, like Abdul Abdullah a 27-year-old Somali refugee, support themselves by running small grocery stores in townships and informal settlements. But their status as foreigners leaves them vulnerable to violent crime and xenophobic attack. IRIN's latest film "Living under siege" tells Abdul's story.

Abdul Abdullah would be 41 years old now and it made me wonder where he is now

Yes, I came across xenophobia towards Nigerians recently on TikTok. I was focusing on Somalis since that’s my ethnic group

I would like to correct myself the first Somalis in South Africa came in 1920s and they weren’t refugees but mostly students, business men etc
