Rachel Dolezal's are going to start popping out of nowhere in droves and people who look like Sofia Vergara are going to call themselves Afro-Latinos.

One way to fix this is DNA test and also great grandparents.

This is why ADOS is advocating for lineage-based reparations and not figuring out who is "Black"

Why would a non AA black person get reparations from America ? Why is this even a "discussion"? It's like Haitans receiving reparations from France then sharing it with Jamaicans because they were "enslaved too".
This is what's beyond me. If we're talking about reparations for slavery then why wouldn't the descendants be the designees?
I think people are too caught up in treating these acronyms like some silver bullet or golden key when the fact is it didn't matter when they knew exactly who was owed, and a majority don't care who you're talking about or how it's coined.

A lot of white folk in America have trace African ancestry from the slave era so that would be counterproductive.^ like they did the native Americans. White people ain't

White people don't have over 80% African DNA plus great grandparent slaves.

That's why I said trace ancestry. Didn't know 80% was the threshold.
A proper geneaology test would have to be done for sure.

If your ancestors were enslaved in America than America owes you, if they were enslaved in the Caribbean then you gotta talk to Britain, France and Spain.
Its that simple lets not act like folks dont know what Island they came from, they shout it out every chance they get so to now all of a sudden claim to be Black or American when its convenient is bs.
they did it with the indians now the definitely trying to do it with us!!! fohYou're making my point breh. It's been 4 years and people are still mulling over that point, stalling progress and even battling each other over which term will "work".
And we're talking about reparations for American slavery. Not the Caribbean or France or none of that.

If you didn’t choose Black on the SAT in school, you shouldn’t be allowed to flip-flop as an adult 
I wonder if the government would go after them like they did with people and PPE loans
it’s easy to derail y’all.
Best argument is this, if u can reasonably pass for white, u get relegated to the lowest priority. First people to get paid will be n1kkas who really do look black and have fear of the police.
Challenge that.
