For instance, there could be a girl who is clearly white, Blond hair, blue eyes, who may speak a little "ghetto" and mention that she had a 1/4th Black great great great grandfather, and we're like "oh she's Black. :justabit: she's definitely one of us. :justabit: welcome! :cheerup: "
Bill Clinton got his dick sucked and we claimed him. :plzstop: "Oh he's Black. Bill definitely got some Black in him."
You have to go thru hoops hurdles and mess to get a pass in any other community. Are we too willing and ready to claim everyone? Does this dumb down the social value of our community?
Maybe it's just me but I always thought your origins have to be of that community to be accepted. Just because I like Taco Bell, I wouldnt expect the latino community to send an invitation. I always thought that was foolish.

I agree.
Other races of people will ask you for receipts, especially if you do not fully look like one of them.
Prove that you're one of us, or partially one of us. :receipts: But I've noticed we tend to take everyone in. And I'm not gonna act like I've never done it. :plzstop: :plzstop:
Is that so bad though

Yes, only because I believe it speaks to the levels of Black Pride.
You won't see white people claiming everyone and anyone, because they have great pride in their race. Same with Koreans. Chinese people...And with a greater sense of pride comes a greater sense of responsibility to your race to build it and make sure it succeeds. Keeping money circulating in the community, and not handing it to anyone and everyone just because they're marketing it to you. Which in turn creates more jobs for your own people, etc. Seems small but it's really not.
That is just my opinion though.
I agree with keeping money circulating in black communities, creating opportunities for one another, etc.
I would also like it to be the NORM to see a black doctor vs. (white, asian, etc). We all have HEALTHCARE in common, and perception of the black race can be influenced in that particular area, worldwide.
Hmm

Hey bvy. :wub: I see where you are coming from.
But I don't think perception is anywhere nearly as important as productivity within the community. I guarantee you that Koreans couldn't care less about what Black people think of them. Or what any other race thinks of them. they're too busy working, building and setting up SHOP in our communities so they can take our coins. Our perception is of little importance to them, but our coin is very much a factor in their day-to-day operations. So we should feel the same way. Fuck what people think of us.

I totally agree.
But in all honesty? I think some black people have their own perceptions of themselves and what they are truly capable of. Self-perception and potential is KEY to making change within yourself and then the community. No one will make a change until they believe they can.
And I may not be using the accurate terms or making sense.
But I'm so tired of the likes of Kanye (complaining about 53million in debt over rags/clothes) when his family comes from education.
Try being in debt for providing educational services and resources for the black community. Encourage black youth to BAND together and build communities that may be flawed/broken.

I saw the comment you made about a Black person not feeling comfortable with a Black doctor and preferring a white one. :plzstop:
Even though I personally don't feel that way....if a Black doctor has that license and degree they're just as good in my eyes as any other doctor. But I'll still address it...
This all goes back to us not being used to seeing one another in positions of power, and being so used to giving every other race our money and receiving services from every other race but ourselves. Which then cycles right on back to promoting Pride and more exclusivity within our own race.
Yeah were alwaysetting ppul in our circle and they never reLly are loyal to us when it goes down
(Small scLe example) chris whatBoutus on here
Hes always like oh im black
I was raised
Black ect
But when it came to obama
He was up hilarys ass and waNting mcain to win
But his proof that he was down with blacks wS his short list of entertainers he likes including brandy or his self hating racist friend jay on here
So we can give u good music and tv but u cling to old white traditions when it cones to politics
So sme thing essentially some southern whites are naturLly soulfull
And its hard not to embrace thrm somehow cause its just how they are
But the oh i get black cock im black and i listen to rap im black and i have black frinds so im blk kinda whites are a no go

And I'm sorry, I just want to see more black doctors. I want little children (of all races) to see more black doctors. I don't want it to be a rarity to see a young black man or woman perched in those positions. It has to start with "oh, I can do that too". No different than Brandy seeing a woman who looked like her, "Whitney" and believing she could do it too...
And being in those positions can help bring in other black individuals.
No different than Whitney handing Brandy an iconic role as Cinderella, bringing her on for DIVAs, etc. Paying it forward. That's what the black community needs.
Perception is not everything. But altering NORMality can be beneficial.

We're often looking at other races as better or more well equipped.
"I live in a white neighborhood. :ohwow: "
"My lawyer is white. :sup: "
And a Black person better not dare acknowledge heritage that is not Black. We automatically jump to the conclusion that they're trying to be
better. Even if they've done the research and are sure they are claiming something that is actually a part of their family. "You ain't no better than anyone. You JUST Black. "
Just? :uhh:
Black has such a rich history and story, and has such power.
Just?BUt plz on't get me wrong, cuz there are some Black people who will reach out and claim anything just for the sake of disassociation of some sort, with no research, true interest or facts. We do have Blacks who will support the KKK. Or even worse, Trump :udontlookok: but mess. I'm veering off a bit now.

Very important!! I've seen black successful individuals who are down to earth, extremely chill. But because they have a certain job, make a certain salary, live in a certain place, etc. people automatically think they are bougie or stuck-up. Why? Is it not NORMAL for a black person to achieve certain things? Or if a young black person is a doctor, "Oh! So rare! You're so special! Bet the odds!" Bitch please. Every one has the potential to do it, but it TAKES a fucking VILLAGE to make it happen. Band together, encourage, spread the knowledge/resources/wealth and fucking place that next brick before the following hand places the other.

But what is also interesting to me, is that you're 1 out of 250.
Don't have to disclose your occupation. But this is my point. There should be more in that field that you're in.
And they don't stop at Black people. Dressing up in Native clothing referring to themselves as Chiefs and mess. And think it's cute.
They want the glamour of it but don't get it. I would honestly never want to be a full blood Native American person. A lot of them live in horrible conditions on reservations, in poverty. They're so small in number when it comes to FULL Natives and are underrepresented. They are nearly extinct.
So it's not funny or cute to me when people just try to act like they are for the sake of being more exotic. It looks like a fucking joke and a mockery. And if you really had pride and respect for this supposed heritage and your ancestors you'd do better.

So it's not funny or cute to me when people just try to act like they are for the sake of being more exotic. It looks like a fucking joke and a mockery. And if you really had pride and respect for this supposed heritage and your ancestors you'd do better.
And not only blacks and n.a's
Brown people in general :dead:
If it ain't white, it's alright to mess around
I'd rather see you in a Nazi, a slave master or a KKK costume rather than portray someone black, Latino or Native American

I would NEVER put some Native headdress on my head. That is not the
culture I was raised in or identify with. Just as I wouldn't walk around in Kente cloth acting like I'm straight off a boat from West Africa. It's all about honoring your roots and realizing what created you, but having some fucking respect.
Grandma Chief would come in my dreams and kick my Black ass. :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:

Where I work out of possible 250 staff I'm the only black male working there
Whenever a topic comes up 'urban' culture, they look to me as though I'm the spokesperson for blacks all over the world :dead: :uhh:

I think its because from history, people (non-blacks) typically try to separate themselves from anything "black". So when we actually see these people embrace us and our culture, we are very quick to embrace them back.

I agree with keeping money circulating in black communities, creating opportunities for one another, etc.
I would also like it to be the NORM to see a black doctor vs. (white, asian, etc). We all have HEALTHCARE in common, and perception of the black race can be influenced in that particular area, worldwide.

Yeah were alwaysetting ppul in our circle and they never reLly are loyal to us when it goes down
(Small scLe example) chris whatBoutus on here
Hes always like oh im black
I was raised
Black ect
But when it came to obama
He was up hilarys ass and waNting mcain to win
But his proof that he was down with blacks wS his short list of entertainers he likes including brandy or his self hating racist friend jay on here
So we can give u good music and tv but u cling to old white traditions when it cones to politics
So sme thing essentially some southern whites are naturLly soulfull
And its hard not to embrace thrm somehow cause its just how they are
But the oh i get black cock im black and i listen to rap im black and i have black frinds so im blk kinda whites are a no go
English, please...
Fuck off translate ha
Someone is supposed to be more or less black because of their political affiliations? I know BLACK people that wanted Hilary to win over obama. Some black people are so ignorant. Someone being black or pro black doesn't mean that they have to fall in some kinda line and are exempt from their own ideals. What a COMPLETELY ignorant mentality

We know blacks run the gammit on all sides of issues
But we know in majority black ppul wanted to see obama. In office lets not
And for the white that said oh yeah nigga im black too would usually be down with the majority of that sentiment unless
They only like black cock and entertainment and not hefe for the true advancment of our people or mentality
Im not the ignorant one here lets not please

I think this is it.
I think we pick and choose. Ya see we didn't even let Iggy get her parking valeted so she could come in the party and mess a bit.
The last episode of Real Housewives of Potomac was interesting. Robyn and Giselle have such a light skin color, green eyes and they have their straight blonde hair..but they don't want to be called biracial. Ashley and Kate were so surprised
This is an interesting topic. However, black people in the States can not be as easily compared to other racial/ethnic denominations, because of their unique history of slavery.
Excluding mulattos, and half breeds would make these people essentially homeless as far as their race is concerned.
