Exactly. Back in the day, you weren't considered royalty in Europe unless you had some black blood because the black Moors created the first kingdoms and castles in Europe.
Megan Markle is only returning the British crown back to it's rightful place as BLACK.
Many slaves stuck with referring to themselves as Igbo or Wolof, or by other ethnic tribes of Africa early on. African American was then utilized to unite all Africans coming over to (and in) America under one banner, that soon went out of fashion when Black people wanted more freedoms/liberties or rights in this country so they began utilizing Negro as a descriptive term for their classification in this country. It wasn't until the 1960s that Blacks began utilizing and promoting the classification 'Black' which encompassed identity by means of lineage and ideology. It isn't a term solely meant to be a descriptor of color rather more than that.
Like I said, you guys don't know enough to have a discussion with me about this which is why I said start by reading the book "Middle Passages".
Shut up nikka.
Yup expected dumb cat logic to appear on this and right on queue OP delivered!
Nothing's wrong with my logic. The only thing wrong in this whole ordeal is weird cats like you that want to claim someone that is on record saying, "I would not refer to myself as Black," as being Black.
good thing im not an American contaminated with cac blood thenIF YOU LIVE IN AMERICA AND DESCEND FROM SLAVES YOU PROBABLY HAVE WHITE BLOOD IN YOU SOMEWHERE.
so all it takes is a round nose and wavy hair to be black to y'alltalk yo ass off breh....

What you think happened in her school or her neighbour? You think white people called her white. So when she is crossing the road and someone cac wants to yell some shyt you think they'lll stop and say oh my bad I didn't mean to call you some (insert any bullshyt cac term) your white.
If that ceremony with all those brothers and sisters didn't clue you in she's black then like I said right on queue with dumb cat logic.
Didn't answer my question what did you think white people her called her in school ?My logic is sound. There is really nothing wrong with it as I have been consistent this whole time.
Your hypothetical is worthless. The only situation Megan has mentioned when it came to racism is how her mother and grandpa encountered racism. She did bring up her teacher saying she ought to refer to herself as being White and not Black because that is what she favored the most. In fact, Megan makes it clear in a lot of her writings that she was always viewed as 'racially ambiguous' and she even said, "I am a proud MIXED-WOMAN".
nikkas like to reach and utilize a lot of dumb hypothetical arguments as if that means something to people that have brains.

So if society doesn't determine racial categories what does? If you wanna argue race isn't real and shouldn't exist then sure I would agree with that. But otherwise, you have no logical leg to stand on to argue who can or cannot be black without looking to societal norms.
