For those that have white slave master surnames? recently changed mine, and feel liberated. It dawned on me it was foolish to be oppressed by white supremacy yet hold onto the slave name a white man gave my family.
Are you going to change your "white" surname?

I want to change mine but I'm named after my father, love that c00n, and I passed the slave name down to my son. I'll have a revised history like cacs have. Problem solved.
i seriously applaud u for doing this. it makes perfect sense for u to change it.
sadly a lot of black people are proud of their names. even had one idiot on sohh say his "ancestors worked hard" for that name. this was the same idiot who said he wouldn't change his to anything african because his english sounding name "sounds better". and yeah a lot of black americans feel this way.
i assure u though, if there was ever a huge wave of blacks changing their names, it would rub whites the wrong way. they would not like that one bit.
keeping that last name really means ur still owned. i know its a topic or fact no one would like to bring up. but that really is the case.

I used to have an abbreviated last name until I was 10..Williams-Bey.
My maternal great grandmother believed in Moorrish Science...The believers hyphenated their last names w Bey, Ali, or El and some blacks believed(and still do) that we came from the Moors of North West Africa and thus were Moorish by nationality and Islamic by faith. This promoted racial pride and spiritual upliftment and provided African Americans with a sense of identity in the world (Wiki)

reading that a black man said 'his ancestors worked hard for a white mans surname' makes me feel sick breh.
black people on a whole really the only race that cherish the names of their oppressors, no other race does this.

plenty of people outside of the new world slave narrative have yielded in some way to western/white culture without even living in a predominantly white/western country. So
Practically standing in the same line with those that did
A lot of black people will say their last name has a rich family history but I agree with OP. I think all black people just change their last name. I'm just gonna drop my last name and go with my first and middle, looks good together like that.
