Mariah, Whitney, Celine, Babyface, Keith Sweat, Kellz, and everyone in Boyz II Men and TLC would like a word with you about that
Aaliyah was an average bytch in every aspect.....if she didn't die no one would give a fukk about her anymore
what did this bytch do to deserve a biopic besides getting piped by R. Kelly and die in a plane crash
I don't mean to say that they don't exist, just that no matter how many there are, the pool of biracials who can pass for black is much deeper than the other way around. Its all about logistics to these people. Cheaper, faster, easier unfortunately.Southern and Eastern Europeans?
I have no problem with biracials identifying Black but at the BOTTOM of the totem. Johnny Depp is part Native American but the Indians was having NONE of that Tonto nonsense. First Zoe Saldana is Nina Simone and now this, Blacks willingly let biracials have first dibs for Black spots
Lets see how fast Zendaya Coleman uses her Blackness as a means to White Hollywood and a Cac bf
yes i do

Her father
Her father looks like the lost member of Harlem Heat.
On toipic, I don't see a problem with this casting.
When I mean iconic I mean visually. The hair over the eye, the baggy clothes etc. The urban Marilyn Monroe.
Which is dumb logic.

The occurrence of what your asking for in the first place is not that big of a field to pick from on EITHER side breh so don't act like there are tons of examples on your side either or to pick from in general. Black women actresses are already slim in major Hollywood productions. And then you want to segregate by skin color (and let's be reality, there are wayyyyyyyyyyy more BLACK actress than the "bi-racial" ones y'all don't like + most black roles are centered around darker skinned women anyway).
Your only other example is Nina Simone in one movie. You say I won't make it past five, but you won't even make it past 3 occurrences of it happening without having to go to multiple actresses.
Do you know how much work Rashida Jones gets around Hollywood playing white girls roles? bytch is pretty much booked to the max. Holly wood just hasn't found another one to give roles to yet.
I want to dap you but then you took it a little too far for me at the end lol.
Damn breh 
dap/reluctant undapWord? So lets list them.
TLC was doing it in 92 though breh...and Marilyn Monroe?
better than having mixed breeds and biracials at the forefront of the black race.
mixed breeds, the gate keepers and ****** overseers of blacks in US
