That is what im talking about! they are talking about the whites being racist when the blacks can be just as fucking racist!!! if a white woman had said that to kathleen she would have fliped a bitch but when a black woman says it then its ok because they have a right? NO its still racsim
"they are talking about the whites being racist when the blacks can be just as fucking racist!"
HERE'S THE BIG DIFFERENCE; Blacks can ACT racist towards whites all they want. The reality is that "Black Racism" won't affect where a white person chooses to live. It won't prevent that white person from being promoted. It won't change the fact that the average cop typically treat whites as the citizens they were hired to protect and serve.

Okay this white woman has the audacity to imply that black people get their impression of white people from the media. NO! It's from how we are treated by white people.
i love this people sticking up for who they are. I love that they show support for there black heritage, unlike the tiger woods mariah carey's etc. who call themselves mulatto or biracial.
I thought that too about Mariah but she said on the George Lopez Show 2010/2011 that she considered herself black. She also mentioned so, but not directly, in a Barbara Walters interview, "the one drop rule... " implying that she considered herself black.
I'm just writing this randomly on one of the videos, but I feel I need to point this out: this type of racism is an AMERICAN issue, with white AMERICANS and black AMERICANS. In Europe, this doesn't exist in the same way with black people. I don't know ANYONE who is racist in this sense. The issue over here is much more with muslims, and is most definitely not based on their skin color.
@roojooroojoo - WHEN YOU SAID "The issue over here is much more with Muslims, and is most definitely not based on their skin color." I'm assuming you mean in Europe.
Otherwise you are correct. America's issue has been a racial/color issue since slavery.
@roojooroojoo im guessing you haven't seen the my tram experience video and some of the replies. Since 911 the Muslim issue has overshadowed the racist issues. At the age of 16 which was in 2002, myself and a group of friends were chased by baseball bat wielding white males shouting racial slurs and obscenities at us, in that same year i saw a white male bash the head of his primary school age son against a bus window because he expressed his interest in learning Swahili, (a nigger language).
@roojooroojoo might I also add this happened in London, England and the gender make up of the group was 5 girls and 6 boys and we were of Black African descent. We were having McDonalds in the outside eating area of the local shopping centre, after our communion classes.
All the sistas on the panel are my kind of sistas. They are not backing down from their beliefs & understanding of white america & blatant racism.
What's sad is there are people that exist in this world solely because someone's mother was raped (by white man) or some self hating negro decided to try & erase his/her negroid features.
If you love someone that is of another ethnicity, TRULY love them, that is 1 thing. But to intentionally have children because of self hate...is a moral crime.
I agree with what the lady on the stage said about white people being racist out of a feeling of superiority, and black people are usually racist because they feel hurt. I totally agree with that. I do know I have an advantage over full black people, in the sense that I am white people are much nicer to me than they are to them. However, most black people dislike me because of the way I look, something most other black people do not have to experience (rejection from your own "race").
I think most of them have major chips on their shoulders. They seem angry that they look white, although I don't think they look totally white. I can still see black in their appearances. However I have noticed that many people who are both black and white (biracial) seem to hate their white half. They're ashamed of their white heritage, and only their black heritage matters to them. I have read a lot of this Kathleen Cross has said (and written), and she seems to be the same way, imo.
They blame whites for everything! They are just as racist as the people that they hate. One of them even said that it was okay for blacks to be prefered over whites when it comes to being hired for a job. the man on stage said that he is violent towards whites when they say things he doesn't like, I bet he would never hit a black man for being racist towards a white! They completely deny there white half and say they are black.
@pfctjd Most Blacks are not racist towards other races... I wish most of us were,but we're not... Were too busy being racist towards each other and not racist towards non-Blacks..Thats why other races can come to America and build real wealth and strong communities and get ahead of us WITH our help... I also wish more of us would strive to be Blacksupremacists in more human activity other than just sports and entertainment.... Seems most races are more supreme that we are.
I disagree, most blacks are racist. I do agree with you that they are racist towards each other, and that is a good thing for us whites:) Too many blacks want to push the blame off on another race and say they are the victim.
@pfctjd Reality and facts says otherwise WORLD WIDE.If we were racist(because of how whites operate), YOU would be on here trying to tell us we werent racist.Most Blacks are not racist towards other races and it is killing us... Blacks are victims mostly because we are not racist towards other races..Every race is practicing racism towards everyone else but most of us Blacks..We need to cut it out and START being racist/more racist towards other races..And stop being racist among each other.
With the statement you just wrote to me you have validated everything I was saying. I am not talking about world wide, I am only referring to the blacks in the USA. If racism is lowered then wouldn't that help the black race? Why do you want people to be more racist?
@pfctjd "just validated" everything you said? When did I tell you I WASN'T a Black racist? I am a Black racist aspiring to be a Black Supremacist..And like all the other racists/racist supremacists like yourself,I will lie publicly about not practicing racial supremacy and racism while I practice racial (black) supremacy and racism.That is the way the game is played and Whites are the best at it.That is how whites win.Every race does this in America but the Black race.That has to change..
@PoliticalAbstract - AND THE DOUBLE JEOPARDY ANSWER IS......WHO'S TOO LATE! Almost every other race has and still to this day mixed with Black People. Take me for example. I am the product of an interracial marriage that resulted in children.
Nevertheless, I somewhat agree with you on integration, well, at least back during the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement. I think for the most part, Integration was the illusion of inclusion.
@americanpatriot00 I don't know why you getting mad. You need to chill. LOL, I'm just being real, you really think I give a damn about other races? Let me elaborate since I didn't make myself clear apparently, I don't understand why Black people go out their way to impress other races, they don't care about you, so why do you care so much about them? My point was, worry about your own damn self and your own people. Sheesh, that was basically my whole point but you just took it out of context.
I was telling it like is also but you the one who took what I said out of context and was catching feelings, but whatever, I don't have a problem, maybe you do but whatever. It is what it is, I don't live my life for other people, so there you go, but you have a good day.
@PoliticalAbstract yea! i agree. americanpatriot00 is just a stuck a bitch who cant get off her menstrual. If blacks were so proud then they wouldnt be bleaching their skin
Lets get something straight here, the only people who do that crap are self-hating, the average Black doesn't do those kinds of things, so lets not generalize please.
I totally agree with pfctjd, the ones who are half white completely deny their white half. Lots of biracial people do that. Like black is more important and white ain't right. I think both are good and important. I'm not a racist, but that s--t annoys me (and yes I am white).
@VideoFanatic02 - Most black/white Bi-Racial People just claim their Black Heritage because they are considered Black and are treated as if they were Black People anyway. Society does not distinguish us from the Black Community as a whole. A good example would be JIM CROW (American Aparthied). We had to drink from the same Colored Only water fountain as Black People. There was no special treatment just because one of our parents was white. We were considered black just like we are today.
@americanpatriot00 I believe you about that (being considered or treated as black by society), and I have heard others say that. However I just get the feeling that some of them are ashamed that they do have white blood. I could be wrong about that (and I probably am), but sometimes I get that impression. I guess I just don't understand it because I'm white. But I think all people should be proud of their ancestry, no matter what it contains (black, white, asian, hispanic)
@VideoFanatic02 - It's true, many bi-racial people (Black/White) are ashamed of their white ancestry, and it's100% because of slavery and all the horrors that came along with it, and the residue that lingered after it. This is why many times when you come across a 2nd, or 3rd generation bi-racial person, they will often say they're mixed with Native American Indian rather than white.
Plus, nowadays, it seems to be fashionable to say you're mixed with something exotic rather than plain blk/wht.
@americanpatriot00 Well slavery sucked. I always though slavery was wrong, and I still do. I have never approved of slavery at all. However if a biracial person has one white parent, they should not hate (or be ashamed of) their white ancestry. I mean there's nothing they can do about being half white and half black. They should love both of their parents and both sides of their heritage. Other people may disagree with that, but that's my opinion. I'm not trying to offend.
@PoliticalAbstract - Under JIM CROW/American Aparthied, many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. LMAO!
So much for Islam being the propaganda filled bad religion. LOL!
when people don't want association, they have an aversion either subconsciously or consciously...people who are proud to be black will proclaim it, those that are not will say they are part muppet ninjaturtle power ranger everything but black...yes categories are artificial but until the people and gov't for the people truly walks the walk (ending systematic racism discrimination and profiling) instead of all the talk (level playing field b.s.) will we be able to look at everyone as an equal
My cousin found out we have a great great great grandfather who was black. He was married to a white woman. It seems unbelievable but apparently it happened some back then. Muhammad Ali found out he is 1/8 Irish, his great granddad came from Ireland and married a black woman. So at one point I had an ancestor who was mixed and decided to 'pass', apparently. Hence why we didn't even know we were part black until my cousin found this out through ancestral research.
I don't like Mary Walker, she just upsets me for some reason. But anyway, if you want to call yourself mix race do that. White people, depending on where they grew up and how they were raised, will always see a mixed black person as just black, that's just my perception, until they actually ask if they are mixed. I call myself mixed and I let them know that, I don't care what they think, it's my label and you should address me as a Blasian American.
@TheKimKyok Let me try to answer this as a white dude. The way I think about who is black and who isn't and being mixed...if you have a white parent and a black parent, you're mixed. If you just happened to be light skinned but have two parents who are from the black community, you're black. Of course, that is just the way *I* think .Being honest, the way our society STILL works is that if you appear to have black features you're black. They call it the one drop rule...
@boffan1988 Yeah I know all about the one drop rule and it's kind of pathetic that someone thinks they can tell someone their race based out of anger. But the real question is what makes someone black? How can you distinguish what a race is. I'm a sociology minor so it's not surprising at all, but it is quite sad. But I understand what you're saying completely, it just doesn't make sense.
@TheKimKyok It makes no sense. I know this. Man...I don't even BELIEVE in race. Scientifically speaking, we have found out race does not exist. Race is a construct of CULTURE and COMMUNITY. The one drop rule is contradicted by how we judge someone's race based on how they look. I'm "white", however, I also have black ancestry(actually its been estimated that up to 30% of American whites have at least a little black ancestry, we're more mixed than we realize). Do I appear black at all? (cont)
@TheKimKyok No I don't look black at all. Yet, according to the one drop rule, I am supposedly black. It's stupid. Different groups of people developed different facial features, skin tones, eye colors, hair colors & texture over tens of thousands of years in response to the climate they lived in. That is all race is. There is almost no more difference genetically speaking between races than there is between us humans and chimpanzees.
@APGifts - LOL! What's written on paper can be outlawed, but you can never out-law what's in the minds of most people, and in America and the UK, the one drop rule is the standard.
@TheKimKyok - I think the consensus among Americans in general is that it really doesn't matter what race the other parent is. If one of your parents is black, that makes you black in America.
Google these names to learn about a few very influential people who were part black. Alessandro de Medici, Chevalier de St. Georges, Aleksander Sergeevich Pushkin, General Alexandre Dumas, Alexandre Dumas pere, Alexandre Dumas fils, Bernardino Rivadavia, and Vincente Guerrero.
Race stuff is stupid. There's no "pure race". People have moved around Earth for 1000s of years. For example someone saying they're "all white", or all anything else, isn't. Look at the people not "white" from Africa and Asia who have gone into Europe. Prehistoric migrations, Rome and Greece forcefully taking people there or people going there voluntarily, Genghis Khan, Moorish invasion (lasted 500 years!), 1400s-1800s slave trade, etc. So yes, Europeans have non-white ancestors. Its a fact.
My mother's father's mother and both of her parents were black cherokees (not officially part of a tribe), and there's a line of native ancestry going into the 1700s. On that same side I have a white greatX3 grandfather. No records on my father's side but his mother/grandmother are clearly black-indians (native eyes/hair and black+native features). And there are light-skinned people (means white ancestry) on both sides of my family, yet I'm still called "black"? That's how things are in America.
Because of the One Drop Rule (when it was officially in effect in the slave days, and in the modern days when the habit of using it was still thought to be necessary) African Americans are a very diverse group of people, which is why you have "black" people with DNA racial percentages of african, european, and native american, and skin tones and other features all over the map in varying degrees. Some "black" people might even be more white than black because of this but they don't even know it.
The One Drop Rule (from slavery days) dictated that anyone part black was to be called black, even if they were part white or Native (unless they were an official tribal member). Even after this racist rule became TECHNICALLY obsolete, the idea is still around because old habits in America are hard to break. This is why biracial people are usually still called black.
Kathleen Cross does indeed look white. If she went to Europe, everybody would take her as a European, it`s interesting how genetics can work, how she is a mulatto yet has almost all white features, that black parent must have had white features then...I never would have guessed she was half Black, except her voice sounds like a black girl, that is about it, really white phenotype.
...not only are they angry at Blacks because of this false sense of superiority, but they believe they're the ONLY people who belong on this planet. They believe the indigenous people are squatters on their land and should be removed off the land by any means necessary including genocide. READ THE HISTORY BOOKS THEY WRITE ABOUT INDIGENOUS PEOPLE AND THEMSELVES to verify this.
LMFAO at that woman who said "I feel sorry for you..." and said "we all get confused for different races"! What other race does SHE get confused for?
If it's nationality or culture? That I can identify with... That woman CERTAINLY does not look Black or Asian or from the South Seas hahahaha!
There is an immense DISTINCTION between prejudice and racism! I hate junkies or anyone that looks like one - that does not make me a racist! It makes me prejudiced against junkies & their likeness!
@darealniecyrite i am a bi racial child and i guess i am one of the lucky ones coz i never had a problem with being mixed. sure i've experienced racism and still may but i am not affected because i know that when people are being racist they are just not loving each other and that does not mean they can't it just means they don't know how. but i know how, you know why? because my dad a white man fell in love with my mother a brown woman and THEIR LOVE has taught me all i need to know about races
@TheIvoryPearl1 - Funny you say that because I met this one girl who told me she was Greek, but it turned out she was half white like me, only her father was black, whereas my father is white. She later explained that she only said that because she never met her real father. Apparently, whatever happened between her father and mother left a bitterness with her and her mother.
I think it's sad that all that woman at 5:02 got out of what Kathleen Cross said was that all black women treat her the way she was treated at the restuarant.
The concept of white privilege does most definitely exist, and they were listed very accurately. To white people this is just how life is- there is no privilege involved. To blacks however we consider the points made as privileges because our lives do not always work like that.
The lady at 4:00 that claims she is not racist- i wonder how many blacks she knows or associates with. Has she personally met any outside seeing them on tv. It is easy to pay lip service...
Ok. They're right but this is such an African-American issue. These issues exist everywhere. I'm of Sudanese origin and these issues are there too. I also feel like they need to stop obsessing and get over it! The "privilege" isn't that "deep."I have met plenty of dark skinned Africans (Nigerians, etc.) who are succeeding and doing well.
@loiba - We have commemorative days throughout the year in the United States that mark tragic events that happened in the past such as Pearl Harbor, The Alamo, 9/11, etc, etc. Would you suggest that Americans who hold special gatherings, and give speeches about these events every year are "obsessing and need to get over it" ? My guess is you wouldn't. WHY? Is it because what's being talked about is mostly an issue that affect blacks?
@americanpatriot00 I would argue that those events are particular to national issue, not race (even though race/religion is associated with those events.) Adding to the privilege comment, this issue can not be eliminated in itself. I think the healing process for our sake is for people to realize the true that "white privilege" exists.This issue should be guided to understanding and the ability to never forget, rather than obsession because playing the victim in any situation is unproductive.
These issues may exist in other countries, but they are AMERICANS talking about what's happening in AMERICA. That's the key word...AMERICA! And I agree with americanpatriot00, SHAME ON YOU FOR DOWN PLAYING IT BASED ON THE FACT THAT THEY ARE BLACK. I hate, hate, hate, black immigrants like YOU who come to America and side with whites on every issue. Then you immigrants start thinking you're better when you are not. WE ARE AMERICANS, not you.
@loiba ok so why should black people live in these conditions ...should they ignore it ???? blacks have all rights to feel the way they do ...they were raped and taken to america not by their own decision.
@loiba As a black person I am shocked and ashamed by your 'they need to stop obsessing and get over it' comment. So you know black africans who are succeeding....somebody please call the press!!
Forgive me but right now there are a lot of poor and hungry people in south sudan, would you tell them to get over it as you know people who are 'doing well'.
As a descendant of those africans who were NOT stolen into slavery, it must be hard for you to empathize!!
@loiba You Muthafuckin' right The Privilege aint that deep. I'm a Yellowman from The Bay Area, CA and I went to Nigeria in 06 and they was schooling me saying to use my Whiteness to my advantage. I told them if I tried to pass for White in America them Whitefolks would fall on the floor laughing!! Even though I look white they aint never treated me like nothing but BLACK!!!!
@loiba and i am african married to a white guy-i don not live in america but i do live in a country where the majority is largely white as it is their country-i am educated -and i have to agree with these people being white comes with privileges.it is the community that we still live in-and as black people we are still divided-we still think that Ethiopians are fine simply because they tend to have the long straight hair and the lighter color-all i can say is we still have a long way to go
most white people i met in my life werent racist and i am black but i still felt their prejudices and shock in their eyes when i go places like i will either be out with my dad or something who is really dark skinned and im like high yellow skinned and i feel white people and black people eyes burning into my back starring at me and wondering why im with this black person and im white but they dont understand that children can be a different color than the parent.
Obama having that half bit of white in him is just another opression on America. Fact is he's mixed. & he hasnt done anything for black people as far as I know. so what matter if he's black or not..what just so that we can say "we" did it. Im done Iembrace my vulture but Im not going to parade around about it. Im just going to embrace being a human & having life one of the most precious things
@MizzYungMacMar - Extending the unemployment benefits beyond what they've ever been extended before wasn't helping black people who lost their jobs and couldn't find work right away? Look, If you actually expected Obama to ignore everyone else and focus only on black people, then you need to stop whatever it is you've been smoking and see a shrink.
.
NEWS FLASH!
It wasn't just Black People who helped Obama become President.
@MizzYungMacMar If you want to see how Obama's presidency helped mute the black community on oppression you should watch Paul Mooney On Dr. Phil about the N word. It's hard to watch.
@MizzYungMacMar If you want to see how Obama's presidency helped mute the black community you should watch Paul Mooney On Dr. Phil about the N word. That's just a small example, it was hard to watch for me.
Just so everyone knows, the president isn't BLack. This isn't slavery anymore. One drop rule shouldn't count. It's like calling the colour orange, 'red' when clearly orange is a mixture between red and yellow, and is it's own colour all together.
I guarantee you that the majority of America and the rest of the world disagrees with you. The world consensus is that America elected a black president. DEAL WITH IT! As far as I'm concerned, we have much more important issues to be concerned with rather than focus on self centered bullshit.
Kathleen seems like one of those biracial ppl who over compensate for looking white. It's really hard for them when they try to assimilate into black culture entirely-blks tend not to be that accepting of them if they are really insecure/angry, and ppl like Kathleen shouldn't feel the need to appeal to them. You can't help it if you're born with non black features--I don't ever want my child going through this just to fit in w. the blk community.
@CinnCity78 - I think you're Pre-judging Kathleen based on her looks. She was raised in a black community for gods sake. Do you actually think she's suppose to act "white" just because she looks white??? She seems natural to me.
@americanpatriot00 I nver said she should "act" white. What is acting white?? It's the things she was saying about how she identified w. the blk women who were making nasty comments about she and her husband. HOW on earth could she possibly identify with those women? She will never feel what those women felt.
@HelpTheWorld91 - That's probably because her husband has an admixture of caucasion bloodlines just like most American blacks. All it takes to bring out a hint of this admixture is a white, half white, or another black person with similar background. And since children get half their genes from either parent, light skin is most likely the only phenotype her children have thats similar to hers.
@americanpatriot00 i would like it, in your studies one day, to take the time to visit '' indivisible''..why this term bc black n ndn relations have been subjected to racism by whites n often blacks who doubt black/indian mix people..so,with paper research n dna research our american indian museum in washington d.c. dedicated an exhibit to ''black indians''..i tell u what ill add u as a friend n send the opening of this exhibit to you here on youtube..i love this segment bc its true history
The quality of this is bad. You cannot tell how light these people truly look. Besides that they are all biracial but conform to the silly one drop rule by calling themselves black. If you are biracial, DO define yourself as that. Don't deny a side of yourself.
It is my business because I am biracial although not part black, but native Hawaiian. And people, blacks included just can't tell the native Hawaiian from black and accuse me of "passing".
I just think they should have had one or two biracial people who identify as such on the show. They can identify as black if they want, but the question is WHY are they doing it? Because it is expected of them. God forbid if you embrace your white side as well.
" They can identify as black if they want, but the question is WHY are they doing it? "
.
I SAY,
You are an example of the point Kathleen Cross made when she said "we live in a society that says white is better". YOUR statement is basically saying "white is better- WHY ON EARTH WOULD THEY WANT TO BE IDENTIFIED AS BLACK IF WHITE IS BETTER." -
The point is they are going it because society pushes them to. I didn't say that they should identify as white, did I? But if they (biracial people) identify as black that's fine. If they identify as white everyone is outraged. Is that truly fair?
@Nine00, I Think you're wrong. I think when you're biracial and look like they do, white society pushes you to claim white. WHY? Again, because of the exact same thing Kathleen Cross said. There are advantages to being white and living in a racist society that blacks and others (especially blacks) do not have, and therefore, we must work harder than whites.
.
THE BOTTOM LINE;
YOU really need to know history to understand the realities and attitudes towards race today.
@Nine00, One of the reasons some people might be outraged when a biracial person who looks white chooses to call themselves white is because of the history of White Colonial Rule, and not just in the US.The outrage stems from wanting to aligning yourself with the historic enemy, the oppressor, NOT THE VICTIMS OF THE OPPRESSOR. I think the outrage is very understandable and fair, given what should be universal knowledge to all about White Colonial Rule and oppression.
20 years later and with a black president in the White House and this show is still as valid. White people STILL don't know us and don't have to interact with us if they don't wanna. But they sure can copy our slang and culture & physical features.
@Optometrist, LOL! I have no problem with whites (or other races) being copycats of the black community. My problem is don't create words like "Plagiarism",or pretend that you created something in which you clearly did not. My mother said in about a thousand years from now, they'll try to say that Muhammad Ali was a white man. LOL! I've already read on Youtube a white guy saying Ali has German features. LOL! Pay homage and give respect where respect is due and I'll be alright with you.
@americanpatriot00 im native american and is proud of my heritage i dont try to copycat...but u cant really say other races when all minorities r grouped or live around black communities where backgrounds r shared.most hated groups in america r native american n black people..us ndns bc this country is our motherland n both black n white communities percieve us as saveges n pagans..its bad to be in your own motherland were foreign people tell me im the enemy.i dont belong.o im a animal-man.sad
@chulah12 - LOL!- I'm not talking about YOU as an individual. The fact is Native American Activist took their cue from the Civil Rights Movement to demand their rights as citizens as well. It's no secret that blacks struggles and achievements have paved the way and opened doors for many other minority groups in American, including Native Americans. This is a Fact!
@americanpatriot00 no lol..we been fighting the resistence ever since 1492..we had to fight bc we wasnt going to be a slave to no man nor was we going to be white..your peoples might have paved the door for other minorities but not for us..no!?..but i will say many of us showed up for conferences of the civil right to show our support..i will say that..most whites sought to eliminate us off the earth n today americans still view us as not humans,but savages our voice isnt even heard bc of this
@chulah12 - From all my studies, Native Americans were the first people White Settlers/Invaders tried to enslave, but it didn't work, because Native Americans either fought to the death, committed suicide like many of the African slaves, or died off very easily under the brutal and harsh conditions of enslavement. As a result, white settlers tried to kill off the remaining Native Americans with the Small Pox Virus.
@chulah12 - I find it SHOCKING that you say Americans TODAY view your people (Native Americans) as savages. You go on to say that this is the reason your voice isn't heard.
Q: Are you not aware of how much people admire Native Americans? Nearly every black person today claims to have Native American blood, when in fact, 99% is really a percentage of caucasion admixture in the DNA from White Slave Masters raping and cross breeding with the female African slaves.
@americanpatriot00 shocking but true, most people admire us for fighting but not 4 just being humans..it will shock u also that many blacks have ndn dna n the reason its not heard of is bc history books r in denial..example will be tuscarora,mashpees,nanatuckets, even cherokee,chowtaw,chickasaw, n seminole..research these n u see..though,many blacks r triracial take snoop dog,his dna test said he was 21%ndn n 6%white74%african that tells us he had a recent ndn ancestor than a recent white...
"it will shock u also that many blacks have ndn dna n the reason its not heard of is bc history books r in denial."
.
I SAY,
Again, I don't buy that. I don't believe that. THAT'S WISHFUL THINKING on the part of blacks who claim to be Black Foot Indian and every other kind of Indian. It also makes these black people look bad. They want so desperate to be seen as something they're not.
@americanpatriot00 just like dis video!? how can these people call themselves black,especially that man!?..it seem bad how he disown his whiteside when he look exactly like the insurance man..lol..'..even modern times has black/indian mix ..like radmilla cody and martha redbone very beautiful women n they are musicians..cody is navajo n black...check these ladies' music out..
@americanpatriot00 now you are getting where im going at,you cant judge based on looks..so my question is why judge afro-native american's heritage!?just bc they identify with such a title n most have their census papers to backup their ndn heritage up..and i think afro-natives know their story better than you.. ; Dwink!..smiles
@chulah12 - Here's what's going on in the audience...90% don't care and 99.99% still view you as BLACK regardless of what you say you're mixed with. The attitude goes all the way back to JIM CROW America. Biracial, or tri-racial blacks had to drink from the same water fountains as ALL THE OTHER BLACKS. We didn't get to drink from both.
@americanpatriot00 they r in denial,the 99.99%..where do you come up with your equations!?lol..do you know jim crow laws affected us to..especially the one drop rule this era was when black n native groups split bc for us they said if we had one-drop of black blood then gov.land couldnt be claim or we would be denied being ndn n blacks was pressure by disownership of native blood even if they were mixed on, dawes rolls, bc of civil rights mov. of jim crow laws..
@chulah12 - Today, just the very sight of Native Americans at any event wearing their Native attire and head dress is enough to stir, and excite people into a frenzy of Ooos and Aaaahs! Almost everyone greatly admire Native Americans, especially Mexicans [Due to their blood kinship]. I WISH Native Americans were just as outspoken as "African Americans"! And I'm 100% certain that Mexicans WISH Native Americans publicly supported them on the immigration issue!
@americanpatriot00 we natives do admire african americans to bc we knew they to was taken from their homeland n you often hear us say the phrase ''stolen people on stolen land''..n trust me we do want people recognize us as human beings n listen to what we have to say but white government wont let us speak n its funny how we r soveriegn nations or separate nations within our own country.we have art,history,tradition n music frm traditonal to rap

HERE'S THE BIG DIFFERENCE; Blacks can ACT racist towards whites all they want. The reality is that "Black Racism" won't affect where a white person chooses to live. It won't prevent that white person from being promoted. It won't change the fact that the average cop typically treat whites as the citizens they were hired to protect and serve.

In Europe, this doesn't exist in the same way with black people. I don't know ANYONE who is racist in this sense. The issue over here is much more with muslims, and is most definitely not based on their skin color.

At the age of 16 which was in 2002, myself and a group of friends were chased by baseball bat wielding white males shouting racial slurs and obscenities at us, in that same year i saw a white male bash the head of his primary school age son against a bus window because he expressed his interest in learning Swahili, (a nigger language).

I do know I have an advantage over full black people, in the sense that I am white people are much nicer to me than they are to them. However, most black people dislike me because of the way I look, something most other black people do not have to experience (rejection from your own "race").

I think most of them have major chips on their shoulders. They seem angry that they look white, although I don't think they look totally white. I can still see black in their appearances. However I have noticed that many people who are both black and white (biracial) seem to hate their white half. They're ashamed of their white heritage, and only their black heritage matters to them. I have read a lot of this Kathleen Cross has said (and written), and she seems to be the same way, imo.

@VideoFanatic02 - Most black/white Bi-Racial People just claim their Black Heritage because they are considered Black and are treated as if they were Black People anyway.

There was no special treatment just because one of our parents was white. We were considered black just like we are today.

@americanpatriot00 I believe you about that (being considered or treated as black by society), and I have heard others say that.

I guess I just don't understand it because I'm white. But I think all people should be proud of their ancestry, no matter what it contains (black, white, asian, hispanic)
VideoFanatic02 2 months ago
@VideoFanatic02 - It's true, many bi-racial people (Black/White) are ashamed of their white ancestry, and it's100% because of slavery and all the horrors that came along with it, and the residue that lingered after it. This is why many times when you come across a 2nd, or 3rd generation bi-racial person, they will often say they're mixed with Native American Indian rather than white.
Plus, nowadays, it seems to be fashionable to say you're mixed with something exotic rather than plain blk/wht.
americanpatriot00 2 months ago
@americanpatriot00 Well slavery sucked. I always though slavery was wrong, and I still do. I have never approved of slavery at all. However if a biracial person has one white parent, they should not hate (or be ashamed of) their white ancestry. I mean there's nothing they can do about being half white and half black. They should love both of their parents and both sides of their heritage. Other people may disagree with that, but that's my opinion. I'm not trying to offend.

@TheKimKyok Let me try to answer this as a white dude. The way I think about who is black and who isn't and being mixed...if you have a white parent and a black parent, you're mixed. If you just happened to be light skinned but have two parents who are from the black community, you're black. Of course, that is just the way *I* think .Being honest, the way our society STILL works is that if you appear to have black features you're black. They call it the one drop rule...
boffan1988 4 months ago
@boffan1988 Yeah I know all about the one drop rule and it's kind of pathetic that someone thinks they can tell someone their race based out of anger. But the real question is what makes someone black? How can you distinguish what a race is. I'm a sociology minor so it's not surprising at all, but it is quite sad. But I understand what you're saying completely, it just doesn't make sense.
TheKimKyok 4 months ago
@TheKimKyok It makes no sense. I know this. Man...I don't even BELIEVE in race. Scientifically speaking, we have found out race does not exist. Race is a construct of CULTURE and COMMUNITY. The one drop rule is contradicted by how we judge someone's race based on how they look. I'm "white", however, I also have black ancestry(actually its been estimated that up to 30% of American whites have at least a little black ancestry, we're more mixed than we realize). Do I appear black at all? (cont)
boffan1988 4 months ago
@TheKimKyok No I don't look black at all. Yet, according to the one drop rule, I am supposedly black. It's stupid. Different groups of people developed different facial features, skin tones, eye colors, hair colors & texture over tens of thousands of years in response to the climate they lived in. That is all race is. There is almost no more difference genetically speaking between races than there is between us humans and chimpanzees.

Race stuff is stupid. There's no "pure race". People have moved around Earth for 1000s of years. For example someone saying they're "all white", or all anything else, isn't. Look at the people not "white" from Africa and Asia who have gone into Europe. Prehistoric migrations, Rome and Greece forcefully taking people there or people going there voluntarily, Genghis Khan, Moorish invasion (lasted 500 years!), 1400s-1800s slave trade, etc. So yes, Europeans have non-white ancestors. Its a fact.

My mother's father's mother and both of her parents were black cherokees (not officially part of a tribe), and there's a line of native ancestry going into the 1700s. On that same side I have a white greatX3 grandfather. No records on my father's side but his mother/grandmother are clearly black-indians (native eyes/hair and black+native features). And there are light-skinned people (means white ancestry) on both sides of my family, yet I'm still called "black"? That's how things are in America.

Because of the One Drop Rule (when it was officially in effect in the slave days, and in the modern days when the habit of using it was still thought to be necessary) African Americans are a very diverse group of people, which is why you have "black" people with DNA racial percentages of african, european, and native american, and skin tones and other features all over the map in varying degrees. Some "black" people might even be more white than black because of this but they don't even know it.
docdoom187 5 months ago
The One Drop Rule (from slavery days) dictated that anyone part black was to be called black, even if they were part white or Native (unless they were an official tribal member). Even after this racist rule became TECHNICALLY obsolete, the idea is still around because old habits in America are hard to break. This is why biracial people are usually still called black.

I told them if I tried to pass for White in America them Whitefolks would fall on the floor laughing!! Even though I look white they aint never treated me like nothing but BLACK!!!!

@loiba and i am african married to a white guy-i don not live in america but i do live in a country where the majority is largely white as it is their country-i am educated -and i have to agree with these people being white comes with privileges.it is the community that we still live in-and as black people we are still divided-we still think that Ethiopians are fine simply because they tend to have the long straight hair and the lighter color-all i can say is we still have a long way to go

most white people i met in my life werent racist and i am black but i still felt their prejudices and shock in their eyes when i go places like i will either be out with my dad or something who is really dark skinned and im like high yellow skinned and i feel white people and black people eyes burning into my back starring at me and wondering why im with this black person and im white but they dont understand that children can be a different color than the parent.

Obama having that half bit of white in him is just another opression on America. Fact is he's mixed. & he hasnt done anything for black people as far as I know. so what matter if he's black or not..what just so that we can say "we" did it. Im done Iembrace my vulture but Im not going to parade around about it. Im just going to embrace being a human & having life one of the most precious things

@MizzYungMacMar - Extending the unemployment benefits beyond what they've ever been extended before wasn't helping black people who lost their jobs and couldn't find work right away? Look, If you actually expected Obama to ignore everyone else and focus only on black people, then you need to stop whatever it is you've been smoking and see a shrink.
.
NEWS FLASH!
It wasn't just Black People who helped Obama become President.

Just so everyone knows, the president isn't BLack. This isn't slavery anymore. One drop rule shouldn't count. It's like calling the colour orange, 'red' when clearly orange is a mixture between red and yellow, and is it's own colour all together.

I guarantee you that the majority of America and the rest of the world disagrees with you. The world consensus is that America elected a black president. DEAL WITH IT! As far as I'm concerned, we have much more important issues to be concerned with rather than focus on self centered bullshit.

Kathleen seems like one of those biracial ppl who over compensate for looking white. It's really hard for them when they try to assimilate into black culture entirely-blks tend not to be that accepting of them if they are really insecure/angry, and ppl like Kathleen shouldn't feel the need to appeal to them. You can't help it if you're born with non black features--I don't ever want my child going through this just to fit in w. the blk community.
CinnCity78 1 year ago
@CinnCity78 - I think you're Pre-judging Kathleen based on her looks. She was raised in a black community for gods sake. Do you actually think she's suppose to act "white" just because she looks white??? She seems natural to me.
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 I nver said she should "act" white. What is acting white?? It's the things she was saying about how she identified w. the blk women who were making nasty comments about she and her husband. HOW on earth could she possibly identify with those women? She will never feel what those women felt.

4:20 so much for "dominant black genes"
HelpTheWorld91 1 year ago
@HelpTheWorld91 - That's probably because her husband has an admixture of caucasion bloodlines just like most American blacks. All it takes to bring out a hint of this admixture is a white, half white, or another black person with similar background. And since children get half their genes from either parent, light skin is most likely the only phenotype her children have thats similar to hers.

@americanpatriot00 i would like it, in your studies one day, to take the time to visit '' indivisible''..why this term bc black n ndn relations have been subjected to racism by whites n often blacks who doubt black/indian mix people..so,with paper research n dna research our american indian museum in washington d.c. dedicated an exhibit to ''black indians''..i tell u what ill add u as a friend n send the opening of this exhibit to you here on youtube..i love this segment bc its true history

The quality of this is bad. You cannot tell how light these people truly look. Besides that they are all biracial but conform to the silly one drop rule by calling themselves black. If you are biracial, DO define yourself as that. Don't deny a side of yourself.

@Nine00 ,
Q: What business is it of yours if someone wants to define themselves as black, or white?
Q: Why is it a problem for you if someone wants to "conform" to the silly one drop rule by calling themselves black?
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
It is my business because I am biracial although not part black, but native Hawaiian. And people, blacks included just can't tell the native Hawaiian from black and accuse me of "passing".
I just think they should have had one or two biracial people who identify as such on the show. They can identify as black if they want, but the question is WHY are they doing it? Because it is expected of them. God forbid if you embrace your white side as well.
Nine00 1 year ago
@Nine00, YOU SAID,
" They can identify as black if they want, but the question is WHY are they doing it? "
.
I SAY,
You are an example of the point Kathleen Cross made when she said "we live in a society that says white is better". YOUR statement is basically saying "white is better- WHY ON EARTH WOULD THEY WANT TO BE IDENTIFIED AS BLACK IF WHITE IS BETTER." -
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
The point is they are going it because society pushes them to. I didn't say that they should identify as white, did I? But if they (biracial people) identify as black that's fine. If they identify as white everyone is outraged. Is that truly fair?
Nine00 1 year ago
@Nine00, I Think you're wrong. I think when you're biracial and look like they do, white society pushes you to claim white. WHY? Again, because of the exact same thing Kathleen Cross said. There are advantages to being white and living in a racist society that blacks and others (especially blacks) do not have, and therefore, we must work harder than whites.
.
THE BOTTOM LINE;
YOU really need to know history to understand the realities and attitudes towards race today.
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@Nine00, One of the reasons some people might be outraged when a biracial person who looks white chooses to call themselves white is because of the history of White Colonial Rule, and not just in the US.The outrage stems from wanting to aligning yourself with the historic enemy, the oppressor, NOT THE VICTIMS OF THE OPPRESSOR. I think the outrage is very understandable and fair, given what should be universal knowledge to all about White Colonial Rule and oppression.

@Optometrist, LOL! I have no problem with whites (or other races) being copycats of the black community. My problem is don't create words like "Plagiarism",or pretend that you created something in which you clearly did not. My mother said in about a thousand years from now, they'll try to say that Muhammad Ali was a white man. LOL! I've already read on Youtube a white guy saying Ali has German features. LOL! Pay homage and give respect where respect is due and I'll be alright with you.

@americanpatriot00 im native american and is proud of my heritage i dont try to copycat...but u cant really say other races when all minorities r grouped or live around black communities where backgrounds r shared.most hated groups in america r native american n black people..us ndns bc this country is our motherland n both black n white communities percieve us as saveges n pagans..its bad to be in your own motherland were foreign people tell me im the enemy.i dont belong.o im a animal-man.sad

@chulah12 - LOL!- I'm not talking about YOU as an individual. The fact is Native American Activist took their cue from the Civil Rights Movement to demand their rights as citizens as well. It's no secret that blacks struggles and achievements have paved the way and opened doors for many other minority groups in American, including Native Americans. This is a Fact!
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 no lol..we been fighting the resistence ever since 1492..we had to fight bc we wasnt going to be a slave to no man nor was we going to be white..your peoples might have paved the door for other minorities but not for us..no!?..but i will say many of us showed up for conferences of the civil right to show our support..i will say that..most whites sought to eliminate us off the earth n today americans still view us as not humans,but savages our voice isnt even heard bc of this
chulah12 1 year ago
@chulah12 - From all my studies, Native Americans were the first people White Settlers/Invaders tried to enslave, but it didn't work, because Native Americans either fought to the death, committed suicide like many of the African slaves, or died off very easily under the brutal and harsh conditions of enslavement. As a result, white settlers tried to kill off the remaining Native Americans with the Small Pox Virus.
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 yes, thats all resistence!?
chulah12 1 year ago
@chulah12 - I find it SHOCKING that you say Americans TODAY view your people (Native Americans) as savages. You go on to say that this is the reason your voice isn't heard.
Q: Are you not aware of how much people admire Native Americans? Nearly every black person today claims to have Native American blood, when in fact, 99% is really a percentage of caucasion admixture in the DNA from White Slave Masters raping and cross breeding with the female African slaves.
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 shocking but true, most people admire us for fighting but not 4 just being humans..it will shock u also that many blacks have ndn dna n the reason its not heard of is bc history books r in denial..example will be tuscarora,mashpees,nanatuckets, even cherokee,chowtaw,chickasaw, n seminole..research these n u see..though,many blacks r triracial take snoop dog,his dna test said he was 21%ndn n 6%white74%african that tells us he had a recent ndn ancestor than a recent white...

Again, I don't buy that. I don't believe that. THAT'S WISHFUL THINKING on the part of blacks who claim to be Black Foot Indian and every other kind of Indian. It also makes these black people look bad. They want so desperate to be seen as something they're not.

@chulah12 - Here's what's going on in the audience...90% don't care and 99.99% still view you as BLACK regardless of what you say you're mixed with. The attitude goes all the way back to JIM CROW America. Biracial, or tri-racial blacks had to drink from the same water fountains as ALL THE OTHER BLACKS. We didn't get to drink from both.
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 they r in denial,the 99.99%..where do you come up with your equations!?lol..do you know jim crow laws affected us to..especially the one drop rule this era was when black n native groups split bc for us they said if we had one-drop of black blood then gov.land couldnt be claim or we would be denied being ndn n blacks was pressure by disownership of native blood even if they were mixed on, dawes rolls, bc of civil rights mov. of jim crow laws..

@chulah12 - Today, just the very sight of Native Americans at any event wearing their Native attire and head dress is enough to stir, and excite people into a frenzy of Ooos and Aaaahs! Almost everyone greatly admire Native Americans, especially Mexicans [Due to their blood kinship]. I WISH Native Americans were just as outspoken as "African Americans"! And I'm 100% certain that Mexicans WISH Native Americans publicly supported them on the immigration issue!
americanpatriot00 1 year ago
@americanpatriot00 we natives do admire african americans to bc we knew they to was taken from their homeland n you often hear us say the phrase ''stolen people on stolen land''..n trust me we do want people recognize us as human beings n listen to what we have to say but white government wont let us speak n its funny how we r soveriegn nations or separate nations within our own country.we have art,history,tradition n music frm traditonal to rap
