Wow.

U just compared a white being made fun of for getting mauled by a bear (After initiating contact) to a black boy being made fun of for just standing there.

U did that.

Yes, I compared to making fun of someone's death to making fun of someone for just standing there.

In normal everyday interaction, neither one of those actions is acceptable. For whatever reason, people see both as being fair ground on the internet. I'm not the one that made it like that. I'm just pointing out the reality.

U that nigga voting for Donald Trump cuz he keeps it Real huh?

You are correct that a lot of people with a white parent identify as black

But why? Especially when it is more beneficial to not be black?

Because the other race doesn't accept them? Or because the look like a certain group of people?

What would you consider them black? And ignore the white in them?? Does that work for convenience?

I believe that we(black) need a more definitive way of identifying and separating because when we get lumped in one group you have what is called the blanket effect....Mexicans Dominicans, Puerto Ricans will let you know before you finish your sentence if you guess wrong about where they are from , Africans the same, Asians no different, idk about cacs I'm sure Irish don't want to be called russian

I can only speak for myself. The reasons I self identify as black are:

1) I look black. Unless I tell people, no one even knows I'm mixed.

2) I was raised primarily by my Black family. I had a good relationship with my white fam, but they live in OH and I'm from SC, so I wasn't really influenced by them much.

3) I was raised in a mostly black area and grew up around mostly black (or mixed) people.

4) I can't really relate to the average white person.

5) I'm treated the same way as any other black person by both blacks and nonblacks.

In other words, there are a ton of reasons why I identify as black. But if you really consider the circumstances, I didn't even have much of a choice. I couldn't have self identified as white even if I wanted to, and me acknowledging my white side wouldn't have done anything for me. It's not like whites would have treated me more like them if they knew I had some shared heritage, and black people certainly don't treat me any different when they find out I'm mixed. When when they find out, they still call me black.

Admittedly, things are changing now. There are more people that claim to be mixed, but when I grew up, saying you were mixed was a novelty comment. If you had any significant black admixture, you were black. You can't compare mixed black americans to groups from other countries. In the Caribbean, nationality and ethnicity outweigh race, so of course they wouldn't consider themselves the same as African American when they come here. For the most part, mixed Americans don't have that option.

Nope, you that nigga that still can't read huh?

I explained why people believed Trump kept it real and found it refreshing. I also pointed out that him keeping it real doesn't mean he's not still an idiot or is a worthwhile candidate for president.

Let me say first I'm against black people mixing races

lol ol there is a reason they have those characters in movies like don't drink gin and juice while in the hood....a "pro black" man lusting after white women....

In order for there to be black, black people have to be produced

In order for blacks to be produced there have to be black parents

Now if you have a black dad and white mom you can not acknowledge one parents side while condemning there other side so in a sense you can not be called black without being called white

Example a pit bull mixed with a terroir would be called a pit-terrior not a pit not a terrior or a mutt which is mixed

Now as participants of inter racial relationships and parents of mutts or mixed children how could you claim to be pro black when presented with the opportunity and task of reproducing children in your image, you chose to consciously end your family's cycle which happened to be one of the methods used against blacks is birth control/prevention

i'm going to stop you there.

So you're saying that if my daughter has a child with a black man, she will not continue this cycle?

if your family is mixed, she will continue the cycle but you said you were black in the other thread and you have a mexican husband and a mixed child with that husband which means IF(if, if was a fifth we would all be drunk)your child has a child with a black man that grandbaby would be mixed, not whether that child calls itself black is up to the child but is the identification accurate?and is it for convenience??

both of my parents are black which makes me black all of my grandparents were black which reinforces me being black, i will have a child with a woman who has 2 black parents and 4 black grandparents, thus making my child black

this is my opinion of course

Both of my parents are black.

 

[MistyKnight]

I am not mixed, nor have I ever claimed to be.

Don't you think that large compression of blacks hurt "blacks" in the long run?

Only if the people in the group are only claiming to be black for convenience and don't actually consider themselves part of or contribute to the community. How does it hurt the community if you have a person that is only 50% black and operates as any other black person would and contributes to the black community the way you'd expect a black person to do so?

What hurts the community is lumping other groups into the black community that have their own agendas that don't align with those of the black community. There are certainly some multiracial people and groups like that, but you can't just make the blanket statement that everyone who is biracial falls into that category.

 

[jetlifebih]

I am not mixed, nor have I ever claimed to be.

Ok, your parents created you in their image

Your daughter is mixed, she is not your image nor your husbands image

Your daughter is mixed, you are not, your husband is not (assumption)

Your mom is not mixed, your dad is not mixed you are not mixed

I assume your husbands dad and mom are not mixed especially if he is first generation american

The result of yalls child is mixed between two different groups, of who are not mixed

So you can not claim a mixed image in my opinion

Now in reality you can do wtf you want or claim wtf you want but even gang bangers will tell you "every blood ain't my blood"

 

[Copper]

Sorry thread got derailed, I could care less who she's with I just think she's a hypocrite to shout how pro black she is when she with a white boy that dislikes dark skin....and she brags about it

Back to the topic the dude is claiming someone altered his comments but there's multiple people with that same screen shot if his comments and the others...

 

[CP203]

How you pro black when your SO is not even black.

The fuck

can't control who you love unfortunately

There are soooo many "pro black" niggas on here who are married to and have babies by white women and they are CELEBRATED on here. @CP203 comes to mind.

I guess you aren't "down for the cause" if you are a black woman who happens to be in a relationship with any man that is NOT black.

lol stop this always seems to be your go to point when people come at you

 

[zzombie]

How you pro black when your SO is not even black.

The fuck

What kind of logic is this?

Please explain.

He's trying to say You are a fraud

From an American society standpoint, what you said is incorrect. People mixed between black and white are still largely considered black in this country. And again, you can pretty much self identify as whatever you want. So if you do intermix and raise your child to believe they are black, that's how they will live their lives.

Now it's true, you could technically say that person is a mulatto and not black, but at the same time that doesn't even jive with what actually occurs in this country. You can take a random sampling any day of the week of blacks in America and you will always have a significant portion of that group who is mixed to some extent. When they say there are around 37 million black people in this country, you don't really believe they mean 37 million pure blooded Africans do you?

I meant to address your first sentence..

Fuck america's society

 

[The Lonious Monk]

I meant to address your first sentence..

Fuck america's society

You can say that, but it kinda nullifies this discussion. Race is a societal construct. It is what it is because of American society. If American society was conditioned so that there was no distinction made between skin tones or places of origin, we wouldn't be talking about this.

 

[BIGG WILL]

Shit made the front page of our free local paper down here. If I come cross another one, I snap a pic and post it.

Not sure if its been said yet, but a couple of people that posted on the dumb shit got fired.

Just calling out hipocrasy when I see it.

 

[MistyKnight]

Either way, I have openly admitted to being with my husband since day 1.

I have also openly admitted to being a reformed coon as of the Charleston shootings in June.

My husband and I got married in March, so everything prior to the Charleston shootings is irrelevant.

I am WOKE! Fuck what YOU heard!

 

[Trillaaaaaa]

How you pro black when your SO is not even black.

The fuck

can't control who you love unfortunately

coons be like

@"The Lonious Monk"

You have a black wife that you are raising black children with. So despite your efforts in this thread to appear objective and understanding of what you're claiming is a practice that we all engage in online, my suspicion is that you are souciant enough to know what's up. There are times when being principled and having conviction trumps making an objective, intellectually sound comparison. I think nearly all of us who post on the IC, despite how unfiltered we are, have limits and areas that are sacred. Children is one of them. Where do you stand?

This country is the same place where unarmed black men and boys are murdered in the streets by non-blacks for the sole crime of being black all with the full complicity of government. This is the same place where black men are unilaterally discriminated against in terms of employment, education, healthcare, and the judicial system. This is ground zero-- where civilization was literally and figuratively built upon the bones, the torn flesh of black men, women, and children.

And you can dismiss all of that to come in this thread and point out to all of us who are rightfully outraged that we shouldn't be hypocritical? You are the parent of a black son!

How would your wife feel if she came across this? Could she continue to lay with you having knowledge of how you really feel and what kind of woman would that make her? Black children are conditioned from birth to believe they are worthless. As a parent, you become the shield that is supposed to discard anything that reinforces that. So automatically, and almost as a second nature, that photo should trigger a response from you that shows that you are in tune with that struggle. How do you reconcile THAT with the statements you are making throughout this thread, for the sake of playing devils advocate and showing you know how to be objective? HOW SWAY??? There is a huge disconnect there and it is obvious you have a wounded soul. Very disappointing, and quite sad.

This is why we need our queens speaking and talking. They can get to the heart and the spirit of the matter faster. Blessed be our great African queens

 

[Ajackson17]

If you are black and you are not enraged by this incident, then you need to WAKE THE FUCK UP.

You need to come out of whatever rock you are hiding under and DO SOME RESEARCH.

Wake the fuck up my brothers & sisters! Nothing will change if you continue to sleep because you are only DREAMING if you really believe that they believe we are equal and that "racism is over/not as serious".

Wake up!
