Can a Biracial person raised in mostly white area learn how to be black through TV and music ?

[ThrobbingHood]

No I don't believe so.

In college...I met some biracial bul who grew up around cacs. He sounded weird saying nikka and only dated white women.

It was weird.

You’re an Italian Mutt who stans Lil Wayne and Drake. You’re a perfect example of a social experiment gone wrong.

Come on you I wish you guys would stop playing like you're retartded. You know what I'm talking about. Because I'm pretty sure you've heard people accuse people of acting white or talking white. So dont come in this thread acting like you got wool over you eyes and dont know what I'm talking about.

It's like that thread when some poster was talking about some Asians dressing blacker then some black people and people were acting dumb talking about " what's dressing black. You know most black people tend to be cooler and have more swag then the majority of white people. I'm not saying all black people are a moolah that think and act the same but you know what I'm talking about. But I forgot most of you grew up in the fukking suburbs around white people.

So what's the question again?

 

[hotbeezie]

Are you black?​

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

I’m suspicious of anyone why equates being black with entertainment and media.

I’m also not fond of people who say black people aren’t black enough, if we don’t have certain interests.

 

[BaggerofTea]

Yes. this is how alot of non ados- non americans learned blackness

Ok cac

A what?

 

[K.O.N.Y]

Ok cac

now youve been on this site for way too long, for that

 

[Homey the clown]

No.

Though I feel this would be a different conversation if OP added history and literature though

Yeah that's what I should of said. But can a biracial person raised by hi or her white family learn how to be black by reading books about black history and maybe also through their black friends and classmates. And like how no one has addressed my comment about black people accusing other black people of acting or talking white . Some of you do it everyday here on Thecoli when you accuse someone of being a Cac because they say something you assume only a Cac would say.

 

[Cel 510 kid ados forever]

Nah

U cant learn blackness

U got to experience blackness first hand

And watching it isnt gonna cut it

 

[Womb Raider]

No cuz you gotta experience it to understand it

Strangely enough, black ppl do adopt certain morals/ethics from media though.

Whatever "being black" is supposed to mean, you can't "learn a culture". You can study it, read about it, watch movies about it, listen to it etc...but a culture is lived day in and day out. Kind of like (for comparison sakes) you can learn a foreign language from afar but can't "learn the culture" unless you live in that country, among the people living an everyday regular life for a significant lapse of time. And obviously whatever image from said culture you're getting from whatever media (books, entertainment, etc) is only a fragment of it, and often a distorted one by various intermediaries according to their own interests.

Through TV and music?

There’s a difference between being Black and acting Black

It's not something you acquire or something you put on, it's in you. What type of thread is this?
