Local Washington State NAACP Leader Outed By Parents As White

RE: Local Washington State NAACP Leader Outed By Parents As White
Quote:That's a bullshit criterion.
Are you ready to enact a fixed rule that only those with a majority of (recent) African ancestors can work for such social justice causes. That criterion would exclude President Obama, for example. Would you have a caucus about who's black enough?
I never said other people can't work for it - I'm just saying what society considers black (and white).

I apologise for what I said - it's not what I meant - What I meant is that, for an institution fighting for black civil rights, they need people who are black (because those people are the ones who have many experiences to tell about the issue as well as higher interest) and lying about your ancestry seems dishonest - Obviously, I think other races should work together for civil rights. I didn't literally mean "whites can't help blacks in civil rights". Sorry. I still think that, when society clearly doesn't/wouldn't perceive/consider you black, it is bad to lie about it even with good intent. For many reasons, people who hold the ancestry fighting for civil rights have higher interests and their voices have higher importance. It's not that you, as a white person, can't help them - But you can't tell their stories for them, and you can't really know as well as them what's like to live as a black person.

Quote:That's another bullshit term. Africa is the most genetically diverse place on earth, and there is no such thing as a clear definition of "mixed race.
It's someone who noticeably has a higher diversity of ancestors - Yes, we all have different ones but it's more noticeable in some people. Obviously, because most (presumably) of my family tree is Mediterranean, I look that way - Brunette skin, dark hair, dark eyes. I don't look mixed race. Someone like obama, for example, looks clearly biracial. It depends where you live. Even something like "white" depends on where you live and has changed trough time, but generally it's how we socially perceive people. Or would you say that it's hard to classify someone like Morgan Freeman as black and someone like Brad Pitt as white?

But hey, don't take my word for it... Why don't you ask a black person? After all, they are the ones who know it better

Quote:Until it is dilute enough
On this I agree
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
