If Afro didn't PLOP a new fckn identity on his siggy every damn week his nationalism might exude more authenticity...
I just noticed this post. Hol' up .

The thing is, every identity I've been claiming is actually part of my family.
I know who my Native ancestors are (my grandmother's mom side). Where they lived, their names, and what tribe settlement they perched on.
http://brandy.4fans.net/index.php?topic=10533.0I now know my Melungeon roots. (my grandmother's father's side).
Was able to confirm that through DNA.
All of my other ancestors are what some of you would call "just Black".

I'm excited but at the end of the day I am a result of all of these lines.
But I do look more like my mother's side of the family.
This is not me being delusional, this is truth.
That's the difference between genotype and phenotype.
I'm half my dad and mom, but I'm my mother's
twin. I inherited a lot of her physical features. Bone structure hair, eyes, lips, nose, even her eyebrows

I AM my mother.

There aren't people with "ramen noodle curls" on my dad's side of the family.
Honestly when I go down there they're looking at me like

"boy wat u put in ur hair?"
they can still tell that I am my father's child tho. don't get it twisted.
