@sneakykebab She IS fucking black. Why don't you think she's black? Because of her skin? NEW FLASH RETARD! Black people comes in all shapes, sizes AND colors. You're dumb.

i dont matter if shes mixed or not if yuh have any % of blk in you your black!!

but look at that hair its not a mixed childs hair blk can come in all shade isnt that why yall call us COLORED

@niceperson31295 I truly think that white people just cannot begin to fathom just how utterly annoying that B.S. and how much of an INSULT it is. They STILL think that they can tell Kunte that his name is Toby and he is just supposed to accept it because THEY say so. BLACK encompasses ALL African Americans regardless of European or non-African ancestry ...which MOST of us DO in fact have. I truly think it's a divide and conquer game since WHITE people are diminishing quickly!

@niceperson31295 OMG! I haven't even read it yet but I KNEW that some ignorant white person would have said something about her not being black. WHY are those people so damn DESPERATE to have us claim some kinship with them? WHY? They should be happy just knowing that they came from blacks to begin with but we as a race will NEVER embrace this "not black" idea. ALL African Americans have varying degrees of black ancestry and yet we are ALL simply BLACK! 100%. Period!

@GodOfTheInternets

The evolution of hiphop culture and hip hop music are two different things. One of them is benign and the other is actively malevolent.

@mscocorosie

Ya sure? I listen to The Coup, Dead Prez. Hip Hop is not the problem.

Maybe it's "learned helplessness"

Also, the father of Hip Hop was a black revolutionist-gil scott heron.

@ladyASolveg i surely understand what is to be black better than you because i am black...i was just saying that most of the black leaders are light skinned...im just saying that at a certain point due to the fact that she's mixed her speech is not 100% right when it comes to her...because i know what she say is really right. but on the personal plan there's somthing not real....no appologize...no offense...the fight is in the blood and as long as she has african blood it is ok.

[LadyASolveg]

@021kdu so what if her mom or dad is white? Does that make her less of what she is in your eyes? Also does it matter what you think? It's most important how she sees herself and what that means to her and the people who care about her and what she has to say. So YES you are offensive and that's real. But it's ok though, just because you and many like you don't understand what is is to be black don't make her any less black or less proud to be black and rep it.

@021kdu It's possible anyone in her family preceding her could very well be Caucasoid. However have you even considered her family lineage to be possibly Asian or native American Indian (north-south-carribean) or East Indian??? Or, how about this, the anthropological science behind the Causaiod evolving from Negriod??

Learn about the Causaiod evolving from Negriod and then think about what you learned, if you dare to bother.

[021kdu]
