What’s true is when a black walks into a room full of whites, there is that pause of curiosity to see “what type of black do we have here”. Especially if the black is vocal. Folks glance and listen to judge you based on your speech pattern. Not saying it’s overwhelmingly obvious but it does happen. It’s clear your black, but are you like me, are you ghetto, gangster, intelligent or enlightened? Or are you the type that desperately wants to fit in by imitating your peers. The Oreo.

The pigtails are adorable...but there is no mystery. The problem is white people, just by the fact that they think that they are white...and the problem is not just in America, it's global. They even have the "power" to take away ones "light-skinned privilege" card as with Gadhafi in Libya, if you say the wrong thing or act as if you are free.

you speak with the most condescending annoying accent. Why do you have to say 'like' or 'totally' imbetween every 2 words. I can't take you seriously.

Yeah, but who made the one drop rule? Is the world his oyster only if he's white? Who put the stigma on black skin being a bad thing? Maybe you should ask the white side of your family these questions. Do you think they think of you like all the other blacks? When they think Nigger, do you think they think of you? I suppose not but the overwhelming majority of other whites do, just like they will that little boy. WHITE SUPREMACY IS THE PROBLEM.

That child should watch that clip on YouTube of the Montell Williams show where the clearly black woman thinks she's.... white. For a child to watch such a clip will do wonders

One drop you know how it goes. because they disown u its hard and usually your choosing the other side. however if you look into articles that deals with statistics, research all of us is clustered into being black. that includes Jamiacans, Haitian, Porto Ricans, Mullatos. Mullattos in their book are human dunkies. go find out for ur self that ur a servant for his big purpose its no way around it. better yet look at the history of India its were the caste system began. u are in the modern one.
