Re: One Drop Rule & Self Loathing Blacks

Not Tainos....Caribs. I know you're from that part of the world. I wasn't posting that for your benefit.

Some of the Caribs look Black some don't. The granddaughter of one of the chiefs said that some are mixed with Asian.

I am talking about his facial features. I said he resembled Tiger, not identical but similar facial features and this comes from:

Grandparents - 2 Dark, 1 Light Skinned Black, 1 Medium Complexioned black

Great Grandparents - 6 Dark, 2 Light Skinned Blacks (1 on either side of his family)

Either way you slice it, it's BLACK and proud!! </div></div>

Should he or his offspring have a light skinned child it should come as no surprise. My point is that you should know who you are. ALL OF YOU. Not just black. This concept is that of racist whites. I do not accept it.
Not knowing or owning a part of you can lead to mental illness, it is the same self-hate.
PS. Me still na find Tiger Woods all that black-looking but this is relative to where you come from or raised

I never said one shouldn't OWN all of their ancestors. Identifying yourself as Black doesn't mean that you are denying your full heritage.

Are you saying that they are self-loathing?

This would be of interest to you Sukuna and I am sure you know it already. The granddaughter of one of the chiefs also said that when the Spanish arrived they were sick and dying. The Caribs took them to bath in one of the hot springs they use for medicinal purposes and it healed them. Pity that they took pity on them.

no because south asians can be black too...

so you are an african/south asian black...

it's brainwashing that makes the masses think 'black' exclusive to africans...there are black south asians, australians, pacific islanders, etc.

Re: One Drop Rule &amp; Self Loathing Blacks

Not all whites follow the one drop rule, and a high high brownin can still get by with most. So you want to tell me a high high brownin born in the middle of iowa never set foot into anything resembling &quot;black&quot; culture is &quot;black&quot;? Get real.

real black Africans don't consider us in the Caribbean to be &quot;black&quot;as we are polluted too. So why use the white mans standard and not the real black mans standard?

It's important to know who your heritage, and be aware of what you are. But dividing yourself into rigid lines is counterproductive and perpetuates those divisions we are trying to break down.

out of many one people. most of us are neither black nor white we are mixed and not a damn thing wrong with being a mongrel, or having a mongrel culture.

So you are now for blackness or Africa-ness?

I mean, if black was exclusive to Africans it would mean that those South Asians are Africans.

Check your thoughts, you are mixing things up

it took 400 years of brainwashing to blow the minds of many blacks so likewise it may take 400 years to wash it back...

it's psychological; people who have been denigrated &amp; slandered in every media &amp; forum possible naturally tend to want to dis-associate themselves from that scorned group..they will do anything to identify with the more esteemed group...they will change their appearance with skin &amp; hair cremes or whatever else it takes to distance themselves from the group... </div></div>

Let the church say AMEN
