Those countries had legit rules dividing mixed from full black though . That is not the history in the usa.
True

But why do people get up and arms when someone, like in ththread about the tennis player, says they dont consider themselves to be either black or white? I understand misery loves company but why do we NEED them to declare themselves black?

So f Joakim Noah was to say he doesnt consider himself to be either black or white how many fools would be in here calling him a c00n/traitor? Why is Tiger Woods so hated in the black community for not exclusively claiming black?

Tiger Woods is hated because he purposely distanced himself from anything Black. That's his father's blame for that

Nah this is a disingenuous argument and you cats know it.

Obviously, no one in the US is 100% anything....However it's not a question of whether you're "full blooded" or not, but a question of whether the majority of your ancestry is African. The 50% mark is the obvious barometer here.

Barack's daughters for example are 75% black and 25% white, meaning that the majority of their genes are of African descent. I think for all intents and purposes, his two daughters are "black" and for the sake of argument, they actually look it.

And I think it's fair to say based on observation that most black Americans are more than 50% black in various ranges. I'd venture to say that this is true for more than 90% of the black population.


On the otherhand, Halle Berry's daughter is 75% white, and 25% black....this is not the norm for most African Americans...and most African Americans are not even 50% white. Let's be honest here.
50-50 is bi-racial/mullato. 75% and up is black. aint that hard. :yeshrug:

Based on this logic, two brothers could both have the same biological parents yet one be "Black" and one be "white"

Taken from Ancestry.com :

Siblings
Unless you are an identical twin, your siblings received a different mix of DNA from your parents than you did. While results can be similar between siblings, ethnicities can vary, and a sibling may also connect to a DNA match that you do not. This may seem counterintuitive, but remember, DNA inheritance is complex and involves a great deal of randomness. Testing a sibling opens the possibility for you to discover new cousins and new insights into ethnicity, especially if your parents aren’t available to test.

Yall need to stop trying to divide black people with Smart Dumb nikka theory....It doesn't help Black unity.:ufdup:

Not only that. If Joakim stated he was white, how many cacs would hit him with the :what:

whereas black would :krs:

zero racial pride, guidelines, authority, nothing. can't even get something which should come as natural instinct correct, how are you going to build a community when your own natural tribalism is screwed.

thats why we got a jewish kid running the naacp, shyt is embarrassing.

why not just re-create the panthers and have some korean as the president, we've already gone full retard.

People are splitting hairs beCause it puts in question who are representing the best of black america. And Yes...the lighter you are/the more euro lineage you are but die to the one drop rule get categorized as black.

But the less mixed blacks get pushed in the fringes of society while only one acceptable image is put forth. many descendents of black elite became elite through white lineage priviledge.

charles-w-chesnutt-stamp-d0178cb67a06a93d.jpg



this was the straw that broke the camels back for me. thats when I was like wait hol up....now see this :ufdup:
we need some clear cut guidelines cause this shyt is absurd. so I said fukk it, cacs got a one drop rule (anything dips in their race, it goes straight to mixed status), we can do the same and create our own. 75%. thats my cut off. you aint black if one parent is of another race. nope. hell naw.

This is the main reason I don't really fukk with the Bi-Racials are black to.

they have immediate access to something a mostly black person doesn't. White family. I cant look to a grandmother or parent for any type of racial advantage cuz we are the same and are viewed the same.

Honestly, this race shyt is stupid and I would prefer if we went by Nationality like earlier cultures did. it just makes more sense. But since it aint like that then I just go by the rules I feel appropriate.

Technically, he's biracial. Sociologically/Culturally(?), he's black.

Thread should be deaded after this post, but it probably won't be

All that needed to be said but as we all know people love to argue regardless of there being nothing to really argue over lol.


Can y'all be a bit more specific? How does one become sociologically and/or culturally Black?

Can anyone become socially/culturally Black?

Are Eminem, Machine Gun Kelly, and Iggy Azaliea(sp?) Black?:ld: Why or why not?

Totally different agree witth you. I don't understand whu aa think that is advantaging them. It's not ! If anything it's upholding the same white supremacy they are trying to fight against.
