It’s funny I’ve always noticed this as well. They always claim their blackness

While many times going out of their way to look White. Some straighten their hair; some bleach their skin. Barry Sotero was as Oreo as it gets but leaned full throttle into his blackness. Kamelto did not look black. Hillary did better black impressions than she did. Megan Markle looked so White no one would have known it until she spoke up about it while trying to be a fake princess. Beyonce straightens her hair and wants to be a Cowboy.

They can’t be white MWF and black TuThSa.

And when this convention was established, white folks were firmly in charge.


And what about Sunday? What are they on Sunday?

Why can’t we just call a race mixed?

Pretty much everyone is mixed. This topic wouldn't exist if we as humans weren't all stupid.

Humans are all closer to each other genetically than a group of chimpanzees due to genetic bottlenecks we faced in the past.

Nah, a close up view of her hair gives her away. She can straighten all she wants, it's still coarse, dry and frizzy.

All I know is that is you are a mixed race white/black girl with frizzy (not tight black curls) hair and have some freckles, you will 100% be cast in all tv commercials


I laughed hard at this.

People are going to be so disappointed in the future.

You go ahead and introduce your new mulatto girlfriend as your "White Girlfriend" and get back to us WRT what your Mom and Dad and friends say about it.

The dark blacks often don’t like the mixed black ones. See it all the time.
