Anonymous asked: Why can't you accept that people don't hate you because you are black, they don't hate you because of your parents or your heritage ... they hate you because you are a fucking cunt.
Anonymous asked: If you anon ask yourself bullshit then you make it seem like other people support you.
Anonymous asked: If the biracial person wasn't part white then I'm sure it wouldn't even be an issue. White people just use anyone that's half white to justify their own bullshit.
ssia asked: I like how these folks want to make up arbitrary rules about biracial people and who can claim blackness and who can't.

im-just-a-reaction:
Because everyone on here says that if you have white skin you can’t be oppressed…
White skin? Nah
White people by people of color.
But it’s not like people of color can come in various shades, the darkest of browns to the palest of whites, and it’s not like we should acknowledge their lineage should we.
im-just-a-reaction:
He has white skin but is the leader of a coloured peoples organisation. Like humanwarlust said if no one told you he was black they wouldn’t know. According the the majority of this website he can’t face oppression so has no rights to lead people who do. yeah Africa is a continent and who owns the north? it isn’t blacks.
Yup white skin is the biggest...

“It doesn’t matter that he’s biracial because he’s white.”
– anti-sj and co on not understanding what passing is and that not all people of color look alike or follow their aesthetic standards.
Anonymous asked: I actually find it offensive that people who obviously have no idea how ethnicity works in genetics try to tell me that people who look like my father can't possibly be black, even if their mother, brother, etc. are. Especially when they use it for a racist agenda.
humanwarlust:
It’s just weird that a non-POC, and a white man at that, is at the helm of the NAACP. The CP stands for Colored People.
That’s not my imagination. It’s reality.
Seriously now, if you didn’t know how his mother looked like would you even say he wasn’t white?
Anyway, I’ve been checking out the past leaders and he stands out like a sore thumb. Makes me think of another IRL case, I’m...

And her son, showing no facial features specific to any African American group.
I’m not saying it’s a rule, but sometimes parents of different racial backgrounds don’t always yield a mixed child.
As seen here, in a more extreme case.
They say albinism was considered, but not ditched. Other explanations exist, like dormant genes or something. As far as I see the child has no...

He doesn’t just pass for white. He is white.
Also, I have read about the history of the NAACP. It seems Jealous has been met with some animosity.
I can’t imagine why.
Ann Jealous, Benjamin Todd Jealous’s mother.
humanwarlust:
But he is white. Look at him. Would you really say at first sight that he’s mixed?
The organization meant to empower African Americans is being lead by a white man. How shameful is that?
There are plenty of biracial and mixed people who pass for white. But it still doesn’t negate the fact that they’re biracial/mixed. For ex: Wentworth Miller or Norah Jones.
You should...

Both are organizations spearheaded by white men. It’s a thing they have in common, you know.
As far as I know Jealous is biracial.

Anonymous asked: White people love blaming everything on their ancestors, don't then? If it was only their "ancestors" that did shit, why are Natives still losing their land?

I really want to know how are white people being oppressed by people of color here in the U.S. I’ve been seeing this claim from time to time and I really really want to see examples of this actually happening right now.
Might add this as a quest in the Lost Scholarship Chronicles. Might have to change the name too.

I just wanna say that if someone made a whitepeoplemeet.com and had tv commercials for it, we’d be called racist lol.

On top of lynching and everything else, white families were literally bombing (literal actual bombs) Black peoples’ houses for moving into white neighborhoods, like terrorists (and it was terrorism) but it was considered completely normal and even expected. Not “isolated” incidents with names attached. A lot of Black people expected to hear the sounds of...

Hating an entire group of people for the way they were born is never a good idea. I don’t even care if that group is currently enslaving your people, it’s still not okay. Everybody is an individual, and there’s no “oppression” gene. Hate the hateful individuals who have wronged you, not...

This whole idea that white people are supposedly being blamed for what their ancestors did kills me, especially the ancestors part. Don’t tell me the problem lies with your ancestors when you were just joking about the racist shit your grandparents were saying yesterday.

Anonymous asked: Okay I think I get what ya'll mean. This guilt is something like what I felt before I went vegan... at that time I just cut out animals products so I wouldn't feel upset over it--but atm I try hard to be aware of my privilege and not make racist remarks or have even racist thoughts and I still feel guilty because of how I hear other white people talk. It's wrong but trying to...
Anonymous asked: Wanting to be a different race is stupid. You're only looking at the good stuff. You say that you want people to think you're more interesting to hear about? You want to be able to express yourself? Well, guess what, us PoC don't actually get this reaction from other people. We're punished for speaking our tongue or expressing our culture. We face racism every single day. I...
newworldorganization asked: what's with people avoiding the point of the blog
Anonymous asked: These people just do it for attention. They don't really care about how whiteness negatively affects our lives. They just claim they're "guilty" because they can focus the discussion on them. If they really gave a crap they wouldn't be so quick to accept white privilege when it lets them get an unfair leg up on the rest of us. I just love how they claim being white is...
Anonymous asked: There is always something very disingenuous about white people writing to racism blogs talking about how hard it is to be white; because they can't be "proud"...meanwhile they don't pay attention to the fact that PoC literally die for not being white and we just don't have time to say, "There there, sure my quality of life today is directly affected by white people...
hoistdatrag asked: I'm white and uncomfortable but thankfully it is 1000% your job to be concerned with my personal validation in the face of your widespread oppression
Anonymous asked: How can I? There is no way I will ever feel proud to be white--as much as I love my culture. I love the languages, the clothes, the long history of my family but I wish I had a different race so I could be loud and proud about it... nobody wants to hear about white people, nobody finds us worthwhile because we've done such horrible things. I hate it.
argentarachnids asked: It's internalized guilt shit like that what pisses me off. It feels like I'm not being understood when people respond with that. Like, were you paying attention? It's not about feeling bad about yourself it's about knowing the issue so you can /actually/ try and fix it. None of that kumbaya, feel good idyllic nothing.
