are we claiming Kaepernick as black QB

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

I swear since Obama won, every nikka's had to take a melanin test.....we were claiming Mariah Carey in the 90s for chrissakes

If Collin Kapernick got arrested, his mugshot/police record is going to label him as: "Black"

In truth, he's mixed, but most of America doesn't operate in truth/reality. So he's Black.

What you said about America may be true, but at first glance Kap looks Arabic/Middle Eastern. Put him in a turban and he gets scrutinized at Airports.

But he's not....he's a tatted dude that is darker than some negroids in my own family that you'd deem black.

 

[MoneyTron]

Claimed. Either by culture or racial background. Just like our friends and

 

[McTwerk]

Real question, does everything have to revolve around race here?

Like, why is this even a topic?

I don't get it either. Is it really that important?







And if so, why doesn't Josh Freeman get any love?

How do we know he doesn't have any middle eastern lineage, has his biological dad come out? You can't deny he has very strong Middle Eastern features. The tattoos are irrelevant, that has more to do with culture then anything else. But yes he does appear to identify with black culture, but so do Bieber and Miley


But really I don't give a shyt if he's black/white/Arabic, I just came in to troll. So carry on, I'll just be on my way.

Dude is black to me breh

 

[The War Report]

since when has that been it's own category?
If there was an APB for dude, what would YOU describe him as?

You're still subscribing to this country's archaic view on race?

 

[beenz]

he was adopted and raised by whites, but he a real nikka to me so far

 

[GreatestLaker]

He was raised by white people.

His biological mother is white.

That's enough right there to say he isn't black.

We don't even know for a fact if his father was indeed black. Could have been an Arab for all we know, but black people will claim any and everything.

 

[KingJudah]

My litmus test is always. " would he have been hung in in the 1800s"

Obviously the answer is yes. So theres that.

"subscribing"?

You think I have some sort of individual power to change societies persistent views?

My 7 year old son is lighter than Colin. I should look at him as something other than black? The job interviews he'll go to will see him as something other than black? Man please....No need for one to lie to oneself.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Y'all keep saying Arab as if we haven't seen his mom and seen that he has her nose...smh

And black folk did claim josh freeman, but he hasn't done shyt recently to warrant much conversation thus this discussion has been dead about him as it should with Kaep

Sorry White America. Your little 1-Drop rule makes him ours. Plus, Kap longs to understand the "Black Side" which is why he was a kappa and most of his friends are brothas. He's a Black QB. He plays like a Hybrid of Mcnabb and Vick.
