E pele O!

I think it depends on who you are and what your road dictates. I feel like the Orisa understand your needs,sentiments and struggles regardless of the language that you bring it in. Many times when Blacks are trying to reconnect, many times one of things we are struggling with is our dept of reconnection. So to fully embrace your new culture (which includes language) takes time. To embrace a new culture is a direct contradiction to our many years of believing that American culture is supreme and that we are Americans. We have twenty, thirty forth plus years of mess to clean up. I believe that if a person needs the language, and they are in relationships that require accountability, they will be advised in due time.

Humility, and good character are not bound by language. Most of the Black Africans that I know are being / have been told at different times what is required as far as language goes. Many of us are the first on this side of the water to return and as such we have to study African language very seriously.

I believe that accountability is a big issue. Especially when you are trying to talk to someone about standards etc..
