Why are black people so quick to claim mixed race people

[personaguy]

I don't think any other race of people do this except for black people, so why keep the one drop rule going? I even saw a post on reddit where a guy said his brother who is only 20% black says calls himself a black man I also noticed that other races are allowed to police who is apart of their race or not, but if a black person says that a mixed person is not black they get backlash for this from other backlash

Why does it bother you so much? Does it really matter? Like seriously, yall obsessed with the dumbest of shiit. Yall cry about racism, but yall want to choose who or isn't "black". It's no different than the "cacs" you hate.

Because most black Americans are "mixed race"

Obsessed? And i'm asking because it's rare to see other races be quick to claim mixed like black people do to the point where someone can be 25% and still be claimed or has rachel dolezal's running around because of this

Most Black Americans are mixed with White and Indian anyway.

I think it's because as Black Americans, we have a different history with our biracials than everybody else.

Like we never really had beef with each other because we were both always seen as Black here in America.

Us Black Americans are kinda mixed, too. But I don't know.

The narrative of “outside of black people I rarely hear other race people do XYZ” should stop.

Are you really conversing with 100% Chinese people about how if someone is 1/2 Chinese and 1/2 other that they are no longer considered Chinese?


Have you really gone to a Philipino person and had the conversation about their thoughts on the “one drop rule” and race dilution?

or

Are you purely speculating/making up conclusions to fit a narrative?

at the idea that “other races police who is in their race”


You guys spend too much time on the internet

White people literally created the one drop rule for this

Wasn't that the law of the land of one point? Again why does it even matter? If I'm black and my niece is is mixed, she's my niece regardless. I don't give a fucck about her mixation.

Because black genes are dominant to white genes and a person mixed with black almost always looks more black than anything else. Since black people are the original people of this planet this makes perfect sense.

And its not like black people decided to start claiming mixed people. All other races reject people mixed with black cause they also know that black traits are dominant and the mixed child is almost always more black than anything else. Other races inherently know that we are the original people and they are not.

Samoans claim The Rock and Roman Reigns. So it isn't just Black people who claim Mixed People.

 

[TRY GOD]

ITS 2020, A NEW CENTURY, AND MILLENNIA. BLACK PEOPLE HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS NEEDED TO PROCEED. IF YALL STILL POST IN THREADS LIKE THIS, YOU CAN'T BE SAVED
