Removing white ppl from the equation, being labeled %u201Cstrong%u201D makes other Black ppl interact with you differently. They put more burdens on you, are less empathetic, more aggressive etc because you%u2019re %u201CSTRONG%u201D and can handle whatever it is more than others. I hear a lot of ppl saying %u201Ccheck on your strong friends%u201D because ppl really ignore them

n

if were talking about JUST being labeled "strong" and the misconceptions of that on its OWN, thats a different convo

and at the end of the day, people gonna put expectations on you REGARDLESS. so this whole don't call em dat! aint changing anything, its literally just taking a positive statement and CHOOSING to buy into a negative narrative.

Do we have a problem with her identifying as part of the Black community?

I remember recently there was a thread about a Blasian woman receiving backlash because she said her business was Black owned.

Ugh QueenRiie. Let me go listen to that horrible EP she put out some years ago and see if my taste changed

I don't.
Amerie has always identified as mixed and she knows the privileges that comes with it, but she's always made her blackness known
She's so articulate ugh

I don't think we would have ever heard of that blasian store owner if it were not for the way she LOOKS.

Unfortunately for her that's a big deal in America

I didn't see how she was singled out until I saw her pic . She looks more Asian than anything else .

Her look and that "black owned" sign on her storefront is what landed her on social media . She said that when she told the customers "my father looks just like u!" They laughed at her .

They just weren't buying it cuz of her phenotype . Which sucks but it's real shit

I can guarantee you if a blasian like Apryl Jones or Tatyana Ali ran that store no one would have cared . Cuz they give "black girl but I think she may be mixed with something"

I didn't even believe GODyana was mixed until Malcolm shoved receipts down my throat. Wr argued for two or three pages straight on it . I just saw her as a pretty black girl.

But once I knew her background I def could see it in her .

Looks are everything in this damn country .

Amerie wouldn't have had that problem. MAYBE but I doubt it. U can see she's black.
