Bruh, if someone asks you to define "black" then "black can't be in the definition.
"Define a black person"
"Uh uh a dark skinned black person......"
" at this fukking idiot"
I know what "black" is and how it's defined. The reason that I pose the question to you is because you reject the working definition. You reject what "black" means in this society yet you can't intelligently explain how you would redefine it. What you've just said above isn't a consistent definition. You say that someone who has two parents that descended from slavery is "black". But you say that mixed people aren't black even tho they are direct descendants of slavery. Halle Berry is a descendant of slavery and according to your definition if she got with another biracial person then her kid would be black, but Halle's not black according to you. That's a contradiction. So you've got to work that out bruh. Come up with a consistent definition of black first.
Black people for have the power to maintain it you stupid fukk. If we had the power to give or take away "blackness" there wouldn't be many people "black" people left.
The reason biracials are generally viewed as black in America is because of social reasons, not that they look more black (most features are actually split down the middle)in america he's considered black. you can choose to view him as non-black. but just know your viewpoint is a MINORITY opinion. according to most americans, whether black or white, he's a BLACK MAN. why? he looks black. black features are typically dominant over white features so most mulatto children favor the black parent, thus they are typically viewed as black by the majority population. not white. and not biracial.
fyi, race is a social construct. no absolutes or certainty. its depends on what place and time you are. for example, obama would not be black in brazil. or Africa. or maybe even parts of Europe. in America, however, he's black. PERIOD.
assuming your black (which is debatable) are you going to scream "b-but race isn't real " if/when shyt hits the fan?
Yall gone learn about @marcuz and his ideology. He trying to turn this bytch into Brazil, Angola or Dominican Republic for Blacks in America
Hell naw. I was in those drake threads bodying this nikka...and I'm being extremely technical according to coli rules. That's me in my avi, I'm obviously a black dude.are you @Jen The Prude
i dont understand this ideology. i want to keep blackness centralized around black people. turning to a mixed mutt hut like brazil is exactly what i want to avoid.

The standards for being considered white based off appearance are stricter than for appearing black due to racism
race is real in how it affects our lives and how people perceive it. however, its not real in an absolute sense. for example, there is absolutely no genetic marker for race. there are genetic markers for affinity in terms of genetic relation. and in many cases that coincides with phenotypical similarity. however, that isn't always the case.
the best example will always be the Admanese Islanders. They are a small seculded tribe of people who live in a chain of islands off the coast of the India. Genetically they are most closesly related to asians. particularly those on the indian subcontinent. but in terms of phenotype they look Africa. or more exactly, very close to the black african phenotype.
so are these people black? in terms of phenotype they definitely look black. and if you put them in modern american clothes and put them in the streets of NYC, they would get treated black. HOWEVER, genetically they are about as far from africans as you can get and they are geneticaly most closesly related to asians.
this is why we call race a social construct. there is no scientific basis for it. as humans we just use it as a shorthand to assign closeness in relation. it works most times. but like all non-scientific methods, its not foolproof. its simply another short-hand form of human behavior. just like all other forms of discrimination.
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he write a whole excerpt about an alleged racial hate crime in his book?
If it's not that big of a deal why is he going through a twitter meltdown right now? Why is he acknowledging it?
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he block me?
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he throw his own mother under the bus?
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he threaten to sue his ex classmate for slander?
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he say he was black multiple times on his twitter to legitimize his position as a BLM organizer?
If it's not that big of a deal, why did he use the black church to boost his funding and career?
of course they dont identify as black, why would they? they identify with their nationality, brazilian.Mixed people do not identify as Black in Brazil. Its starting to change though because they realize they've been duped.
why do you care so much? like why does whether he's white or not even matter to you? other than for the scholarship part (which would be a bad look IMO cause he's stealing money that shoulda gone to an actual black kid), what he really is should not matter one iota to anyone outside of those close to him.
like i said, if homeboy was going around demeaning black folks and black interests you'd have a point to hold his feet to the fire. from everything i've gathered it seems dude is a positive influence to black interests. thus whatever the truth is here should be irrelvant. like i literally don't care whether his momma creeped on his pops and he's 35% black or he's a complete liar. this issue is completely insignificant.
