Would you consider Aborigines black?

[Somewhere For Me]

No, they are the furthest genetically from sub Saharan Africans than any other race.

That's what I've always understood it to be as well.

look when we say black/african we refer to this

anyone who doesn't look like this or a variation of is not considered black

we have indians and hispanics darker than us but we don't consider them black, i don't know why nikkas putting aboriginals/pacific islanders in the same boat as us

I am going to play a little devil advocate, because i want you write your opinion. What would you consider these people from my country in Africa, because i am curious.
Africans

Vs Australian Aboriginals and melanesians

one of my favorite rap groups from PNG Naka.

The first group is from the African continent, and the second group is from Oceania, so in your opinion the first group is considered black since they live in sub Saharan African, and the other group is not "black"? Inquiring minds like to know?

Also bruhs,

we MUST stop with this dna, dna, dna shyt... I was always suspicious of DNA. Not saying it has no crebility, but at the same time, i dont think it's completely understood. I was reading an article in a magazine while catching a flight the other day,

The article detailed Isreali researchers being able to manipulate DNA samples to match any genomes... I will try to find the article online and post it. Stop falling for CAC science. You can clearly look at some aboriginals and pacific islanders and see that they are black people.

I don't consider anyone whose not AA as being black
Anyone outside of America, I go by nationality.


edit: fukk it then. Everybody's black even the people who desperately want to distance themselves from it.

Is that henna she is wearing in her hand?

 

[Somewhere For Me]

On the contrary, whites see all ethnic groups with light skin of European descent as part of their tribe. So even while whites are clear minority regarding world population, their unity and pledge of allegiance to their race/tribe allows them to dominate all others. Uou don't even accept all people classified as black here in amerikkka.

Why do so many of you on here have this belief that White people of all nationalities look beyond the differences of their nation, ethnicity, culture, and language and come together as one?

Even White supremacist/nationalist groups aren't always on the same level. They stay arguing about what kind of White is the right kind White.

I declare, some of you all give cacs way too much positive rep.

yes just becuase east africans dont look like central africans or west africans doesn't mean they are not black they still poses black blood

Since my parents is from that region, what is possessing black blood? Are you talking about the west African variety or our unique Genetics? There are more ways to wear so called "black".

 

[Somewhere For Me]

Also:

Yes, all humans come out of Africa but, after so many hundreds of thousands of years of various migrating humans branching off, settling into new lands, and genetically isolating themselves, quite naturally far removed types would be different from the original.

Anyway, this mess gets complicated and at the end of the day, I feel for the plight of the aboriginal because they got mistreated and abused of the highest order and still suffer to this day. Whether or not they identify as "racially" Black doesn't phase me but, I do know we are different people still and we both have our own separate culture problems to be concerned with.

One drop rule

 

[Lavish]

Black skin = black people

LMAOOOO

 

[DoubleClutch]

The use of the term "black" is a bit of appropriation from a negative term to a positive form of affirmation against oppression against dark skinned people. The justification for the enslavement of dark skinned people and their lands was their skin colour - negatively described as "black" and lacking the goodness of "light" according to all the fukked up European philosphers.

Given the history of colonialism and oppression in Australia, which is synonymous with the experiences of black people in the diaspora, I have no problem with australian aborigines identifying as black. I even know of dark skinned Indians who identify as "black", particularly dalits in India who make up the lowest caste. The point is it's a fluid form of identity born out of a history of oppression. Pointless to argue with it.

True but the only thing "black" people have in common in this case is oppression. That's not enough to call them the same people.

Caribbean, South/Central American or African Blacks have more in common with African Americans just based off the fact that at some point their ancestors came from Africa.

Until I see an Aboriginal in the NBA or Breaking Olympic track & field records I ain't claiming them as Black
