What the hell is #newblack outside of the Coli though?to be fair we cant be 100 percent either way.but im still suspicious.
If people on that self hate shyt let them be, if they ain't hate their race they would still hate themselves.

Y'all all looking at this the wrong way, honestly.
He understands that we will be labeled that, yes. But must you HAVE to accept that label? The term "black" being used for people is historically quite new. We never gave it to ourselves. He's not just throwing his genes and history to the bushes y'all
He's definitely learning from some Noble Drew Ali type dudes...
Here you have the "Black Laws" of Virginia
http://www.virginia.edu/woodson/courses/aas-hius366a/blackcodes.html
These laws were applied to "blacks" and not "whites." Y'all know what that means? There was no in between. Legally you were white if you were free.
Sowith this "new black" shyt on my nikka Ab-Soul.
Heed this little man:
He has no fukking choice. That's not up to him whether or not he "accepts" that label. When you go to the bank and you see the teller adjust their posture and demeanor when the dude before you received a big ol smile...You're a black man
When you speak articulately and show signs of education, yet are told you're "speaking white" and you're smart for a "black guy".....You're a black man.
When white folks call you "dog", do the chicken wing+dap n snap, and talk to you about Kendrick Lamar for no reason, then behind your back they call you a n!gger........You're a black man
When you walk behind any girl and they start speeding up, sit down randomly to let you pass, or start pretending to talk to someone on the phone........You're a black man
When you walk into a neighborhood after coming back from the store for some skittles and a iced tea, and get your life taken because you "fit the mold"......You're a black man
It's like real estate; the reason homes are valued at what they are is because that's what people are willing to pay for it....perceived value. The reason that an Chevy Avalanche and an Escalade EXT are 25 grand apart, even though it's the same truck, is because people are willing to pay that for the label.
Now....knowing how value works....you tell me ab soul is right. If you can't understand that, then you should feel warm and fuzzy wrapped in pink skin.
Jesus.. y'all really just don't wanna be Black..Y'all all looking at this the wrong way, honestly.

So
Agreed. I stand with who I stand with.
I didn't read.
What one chooses to label himself and what other choose to label them is subjective.

Those are the breaks I suppose.
There is a group of posters who go out of their way to neg me for existing.
I'm a soul that embodies a vessel and questions all the quirky things we beings consider absolute.Jesus.. y'all really just don't wanna be Black..
Call me eccentric.
But you ain't bringing nothing constructive to the table so, where do I sign up to be white?
