I'm really trying to understand this. Since the European slave-traders took refuge in the fact that the Arabs and even the Africans themselves had already sold slaves before them. Now let's move forward to here and now. I've noticed many African Americans are dropping their given names and taking on Arab sounding names. Now SOME names (21th Century) that AA's take on make no sense whatsoever....IMO Arabic sounding names would be MY last option given their role in the scheme of things.

this is also in the front of my mind also

blacks dont want to accept the slave master's name becuase he forced christianity on us....well, so did the arabs and so many of us think of islam as the "black man's true religion"

i feel that unless you get them cotton swaps and markers and find out where you truely come from,you will always jus be havin another man's name
or
you can keep creating all the afro-french names like LeChantenell
