Well, if you're in the U.S. you play by the rules so yeah. .. that's how it's always worked. Look at what happened to the creoles.

All that subcategory confusion is an island thing.

At that, most black americans because of the history are mixed up. How would you even be able to tell the difference between who wears what label?

You say you're Bajan and no one in your family looks like this chick.

For blacks who are from the U.S., not immigrant blacks but blacks with roots in the south, being mixed up and being black are nothing new.

Look, if you're saying you want to be in a whole other category fine go ahead.

As far as this chick yeah she looks black. She was probably hired because she hits both the black and hispanic category so she's a win/win.

I'll accept that "black" is a US term so y'all can use it how u see fit.

I was always under the impression black referred to those of mainly African ancestry. Now you're saying its for anyone who is "mixed up"?

I think You're contradicting yourself by acknowledging their significant non African ancestry but still calling them black, but go head breh.

And AAs are no where near as admixed as Dominicans man, stop kidding yourself

you probably the type to marry a white man but still say you're problack because your kids will be black according to the US

I'm glad you are accepting this.

I mean you really thought that black referred to those of mainly African ancestry even when looking at Vanessa Williams who was crowned the first "BLACK" Miss America. . .really?? I thought you said she wasn't mainly of African descent?

And how does someone like Vanessa Williams a Black person from the U.S. not have as much admixture as a Dominican?

Blacks in the U.S. depending on geography are all mixed up.

It's not some sort of badge of honor but it is the truth.

 

[FlyGuy]

A lot don't...Dominicans are some of the most insecure folks out here

Honestly their mentality has to still be connected to the island in some type of way. My entire family here acknowledges the different parts of our background. I don't have enough black features to claim Afro Latino but some of my cousins do and we all know what it really is.

 

[EndGame]

Aite bruh, claim her all you want. Most western blacks don't look like that but do you breh.

Just a shame she calls herself "latina" on her Twitter page. Wonder why she ain't say "afrolatina"

This should've have put an end to this subject.

You're trying to make sense to someone who is senseless. Not that it matters what an African thinks a Western Black should identify as, anyway.

I was waiting for this.

 

[Paradise50]

Of course she's with a cac....of course

 

[yates]

This thread has shown me a lot tho.

I find it funny how a nikka like @Poitier is so quick to distance himself from Africans/caribbeans, claim AA features are completely different from the rest of the diaspora, but is so quick to swear y'all look just like Dominicans.

Those are the people y'all look like over Jamaicans/Africans huh ? Nice to know

 

[Poitier]

When did I say AAs and Dominicans look exactly alike? I can tell a Dominican like I can a Jamaican or Ghanian. The topic is about Blackness and many Dominicans could blend in the Horn or Southern Africa seamlessly

Like I said man, if the definition of black is anyone with partial African ancestry, don't cry about IR relationships and yell bedwench this bedwench that.

I mean why should you marry within your race when you can have a black child with a non black

Don't cry when someone who looks like Derek jeter benefits from programs developed to specifically help AAs over someone who looks like kelly rowland

Just out of curiously breh, would you describe her as a beautiful black woman ?

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

i usually dont participate in these threads but this is sickening.

balding, weak chin, swagless, food in his teeth.

"avg white guys get the most play" - @malcolmxxx_45 the philosopher

I said that in 2012 but but but malc it's not true

No more like Dominican looks aren't particularly unique or special .. .no offense. Beautiful women in the D.R. mind you but let's be real, two of the most beautiful people in the world have Jamaican backgrounds.

Naomi Campbell and Tyson Beckford.

This chick is a great looking woman but honestly, tons of black american women resemble her to me. I don't find her in anyway out of the ordinary.

Not all black americans mind you, but many.
