I can’t think of a more relevant place to talk about the issues facing our community today than the place where African culture became American culture  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) The people and the cultures of what is known as Africa are older than the word ‘Africa.’ According to most records, old and new, Africans are the oldest people on the face of the earth. The people now called Africans not only influenced the Greeks and the Romans, they influenced the early world before there was a place called Europe  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) I haven’t traveled in Africa nearly as much as I’d like to.

But that’s the basis point of where all of the music that I love is based upon, from Africa to Cuba to Puerto Rico to South America  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) To make an absolutely gross generalization, I think a lot of people feel like if you’re mixed, more often than not you’re quote unquote white. So if you’re mixed, you embrace the mainstream culture more than the African-American culture  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) I grew up in Africa surrounded by a lot of culture. It’s made me aware that the world is a big place.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) It would be good for us Africans to accept ourselves as we are and recapture some of the positive aspects of our culture.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) There’s still racism.

South Africa, Indonesia, crazy places have that legend and that idea of immortality.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) South Africa never leaves one indifferent. Its history, its population, its landscapes and cultures - all speak to the visitor, to the student, to the friend of Africa.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) Many Africans succumb to the idea that they can’t do things because of what society says. Images of Africa are negative - war, corruption, poverty. We need to be proud of our culture.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) I see that the culture that is prevalent right now in Nigeria and indeed Africa is the culture of GET RICH QUICK.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) I’ve been to Africa three times. All right? You can’t bring Western reasoning into the culture. The same way you can’t bring it into fundamental Islam.  (Culture Of Africa Quotes) What we call soul has been around a long time. It comes out of a particular culture that is African in origin, but influenced by 250 years of slavery, as well as other forms of racial oppression  (Culture Of Africa Quotes)
