Why So Chill? A Cameroonian Is Surprised at How African Americans React to Social Media Buzz.

In the USA

The news as it trends. See the video below. 

A Cameroonian man recently shared his thoughts on social media after arriving in America not too long ago, noting that he hadn’t fully grasped the cultural nuances.

He was particularly curious about why African Americans often choose not to react strongly to issues that seem trivial in nature.

His observation sparked a broader conversation about cultural differences, culture shock, emotional restraint, and the contrast between communal values, like the “it takes a village” mindset and the more individualistic nature of American society.

His curiosity about the lack of understanding around cultural differences highlighted how lived experiences shape social responses and influence what people choose to engage with or ignore.
