Oj Simpson's kids had a white mom and black dad.
Would you consider them white?
What if they said they were white?
Or if you found out you had Ashkenazi Jewish blood but considered yourself a wasp.
Can you make a choice what you say you are?

Wouldn't bother me in the least, but let's see what happens in they try to hail a cab in New York City or drive a nice car in Chicago.

Say? Sure. But if I tried to claim black I'd get ridiculed for it.

We're all black according to the one-drop rule.

My bold prediction:
One day there will be a black president whose parents are both black.
When this happens, there will be groups challenging whether or not Barack Obama was really the first black President.

Transracials, the next best catch phrase.

Why not? This is what happens when you start blurring lines.

If someone wants to do a blood test to verify an agreed percentage of heritage, maybe.
I'm pretty sure DNA tests would confirm a trans male still has no Y chromosome, yet we are being forced to accept him as a male in every way.
You know what, I think I'll wake up tomorrow and be black, then Monday I'll be Asian. Then Tuesday, I'll identify as Martian. Why not, that's the precedent we're setting.

I can't just "choose" to be a minority for a scholarship. It must be proven. I think you misunderstood what I meant.

I say "yes", my AA brothers. Right on!

Certainly
If you can choose your gender then you should be able to choose your race.
Remember no discrimination based on sex, race, religion or national origin.
If a Protestant guy from Norway wants to say he's a black, Buddhist girl from Sri Lanka then so be it.
It's a Constitutional right.

Gender is not a choice...you are what you're born with!There is no option 3. When will people accept this fact?

I've always wondered is anyone would ever know if a white kid applying to a college put on an application that he was black to get in easier?
IIRC there was an Asian Indian kid that got into med school growing an afro and claiming to be black.
Google it

Why cant I choose to be a minority?

I had a buddy that was convinced he had previously unknown black ancestry because he and his white wife had a black baby together.

No, no, no.
The choice is identifying as one of another group. It's completely within one's mind.
In the modern SJW view, society is not allowed to define the individual, only the individual may define themself.

She chose to be black.
Russell Wilson chose to be white (according to some black sportswriters)
Tiger is cablanasian.

You can be white plus something, therefore 2 or more
