Ayesha Curry: "I Feel I’m Too Black For The White Community, But Don't Fit Within Black Society."

[8WON6]

Some people like Ayesha Curry clearly aren't equipped to be speaking on race. We are not the confused ones, she is. Black folks have always accepted mixed people that wanted to be accepted with us. Mixed people that grew up around black folks know this.

 

[Ake1725]

In the USA nobody considers that mixed.

Lol

Every other Black American got a light skins as parents and create a light skin kid and they are just Black.

All of us are mixed up. The typical Blac American is 75 to 80 percent Black.

Stephen Curry is a prime example.

Mixed to most of us mean one of your parent is non-Black, have no Black ancestry.

We don't sit here make a list of nationalities and try to claim mixed status, that's some Canadian and Euro shyt. That's Instathot shyt. That's Hollywood shyt.

Jhene Aiko is mixed
Drake is mixed

Ayesha Curry is the typical lightskin chick in the USA and she would know that of she grew up here.

Jhene Aiko: one of her parents are dominican and the other is blasian (black and japanese) Either she is as black as Ayesha Curry (one parent polish/jamaican and the other blasian) or Ayesha Curry is as mixed as she is

 

[Hardest Since MC Ren]

Bet her kids still

Jhene Aiko: one of her parents are dominican and the other is blasian (black and japanese) Either she is as black as Ayesha Curry (one parent polish/jamaican and the other blasian) or Ayesha Curry is as mixed as she is

Her momma is Dominican and Japanese and her Dad is a lightskin Black American.

I don't know if her momma comes from Black Dominican stock

I didn't know her momma was half Japanese

 

[murksiderock]

Yeah Jhene isn't really a "Blasian" the way we typify it, both her parents are biracially black and her mom is a "true" Blasian in the sense of having one Asian parent...

Race is always a sensitive subject because we use all kinds of qualifiers to in/exclude people...

Jhene and Ayesha are mixed like most of us Black Americans, nothing new or special here. Their experience is not unique to other blacks...

They are cornballs because they are corny. You really gonna tell me that Jordan Peele and Donald Glover aren't super corny?

Like Donald Glover is the guy that said he likes being called a ****** on while having sex and glorified Asian chicks.

The Key and Peele show was super corny.

They ain't considered cornballs outside the Black community because most non-Black Americans are corny to us.

Like we can't help that we are the paragon of cool and hip and then we got corny Black folks that don't fit in the Black Cool paradigm. Some of us are corny to some and some aren't corny. Some of us are cool to some and corny to others. We don't hate anyone and it ain't serious.

Key & Peele was funny. And that Donald quote is c00ning more than it’s corny.

But again you’re not disproving my point. A large percentage of the black community looks at those folks as corny, whereas in other communities they wouldn’t. Those folks therefore don’t feel like they fit in black community. Cue Ayesha Curry quote.

And it ain’t about hating anybody, but nobody’s trying to hang around folks that think of them as corny. “You’re lame and corny, but I don’t hate you or anything” isn’t the kind of acceptance most people want.

But what I am saying is, we accept them despite being corny because we like the stuff they do. They know they are corny. We know they are corny.



Acceptance isn't about liking everything about someone, it is about recognizing them for what they are and accepting them for what they are.

Like I don't expect everybody to like everything about my personality, or my aura or whatever. But as long as you authentic to yourself, then that's really what matters and most people accept that - especially Black people.

I feel like we're talking in circles here but the bolded is proving my point again. They'd rather go to where they're not considered corny. That's the point.

 

[Savvir]

Nah man. If you fall outside the box of what's expected as being "black" in America, you're definitely not getting accepted by the whole black community. Some, yes. The majority? Nah. You will definitely have a decent % looking at you as a lame/square/weirdo etc.

Russell Wilson is millionaire, superbowl winning star quarterback, and there's still a large amount of dudes in the black community that view him as a cornball. If he was white or asian or hispanic that's not happening to same degree, if at all.

you really didnt grow up around any asians huh?
they call asian celebrities bananas all the time

 

[BedRoomI'z]

Steph, it's time for you to take this bytch to the closet.

 

[devizelle]

Black people who say "I was never accepted by black people" ARE ALWAYS and get the same side eye as women who say "I don't have a lot of female friends." At some point people need to look in the mirror.

 

[kevm3]

It's amazing that we live in a society where a woman who doesn't have to work another day in her life, is married to an all time great sports athlete, and has a healthy family can go out and present herself as a victim. Ayesha's problem is she wants the fame and notoriety that Steph is getting. She seems like she wants to be him more than be with him.

 

[Ezigbo Nwanyi]

She needs to stfu, Sonya and Steph need to let her be on Basketball Wives or Real Houswives already and get over it. Clearly this chick is starving for attention and a sense of identity.

 

[PHamm]

Cant believed Chef amd Dell let another thot enter the family

 

[Artenche]

I don't see anything wrong with what she said.

Sounds like her just expressing how she feels. Nothing really offensive and a lot of people mixed with black feel like her. Even on here you see nikkas latching out at mixed nikkas saying they ain't black.
Which is fukked up because racist people will treat them like they black but yet some black people won't treat them like the black enough. It's a weird place to be.

Ayesha is alright, she just puts way too much personal shyt out there to the public. It's bold because people are gonna judge her but I'm not sure who she is helping by putting this out there. I'm sure she has a solid support circle so...

Steph must really love this chick for her to be able to just openly say this shyt without any problems on his end. I guess they got something good.
