Is there any data on what percentage of opportunities meant for blacks go to biracials?

- Start date
I somewhat agree, but if that biracial person is like a J Cole or a Bob Marley that was down for the black cause, are their efforts in vein?
But people always assumed that I was biracial cause I'm light skinned with nappy hair and my pops looks damn near white, but he always called himself black and his parents look damn near white, but they racially black too.

They could be down for the cause and acknowledge how their biracial background is advantageous to their navigation of this white supremacist society, but that still doesn't negate OP's point that their ambiguity lets them be used as pawns in the effort to limit the mobility of actual black men and women.
no one who is countering op is a pawger. just calling out dumb shyt
This thread only has merit if we are talking about NonAdos Biracials meaning ones like Alicia Keys, Tinashe, Demetria Obilor etc that have a nonados parent and a nonblack one.
but if this is about ADOS biracials this is stupid. as they are ADOS, and alot of them identify as ADOS.
if this entire topic is built on who has privledge and who is used as pawns. Then you dont have to stop at biracial ados people with pirvledge you can look at gender privledge(BW more likely to get hired) class privledges, sexual privledge(gay nikkas more likely to get hired)
you can keep goin until you get to Straight ADOS BM who are really the least privileged

plug couldnt trust you now u cant trust the plug
Some black people, mainly black women, have been pushing this thing online that biracials are replacing black people and believe that biracials are purposefully doing so and are pushing shyt like this against them. Sometimes mods here try too hard/are dumb as fukk.
It’s false idea that biracial/light skin people have favor with whites.
The reality is the favor is with in our communities.

So, an employer who has two choices - a breh and a biracial - isn’t more likely to chooae the biracial? Really?
For sexuality purposes, this is true. For the longest time, we made Halle Berry the prototype of the black woman, despite her crazy azz having a white mama.
No because altho yes biracials can get preferential treatment that does not erase who they are as ADOS Black people espescially if they so choose to identify as such and are treated as black. So pointing at "well their privledged" as a reason to try to take away their ADOS heritage and right is not sound or logical espescially when we look at the fact
That Biracials are not the only type of ADOS people who can be considered privleged in our community everyone from gay nikkas, to classes of ADOS, to BW even have privileges and get preferential treatment over some others in our communtiy
if we were to apply that being privilege lessens your right to programs. Then that applies to everybody who isnt a lower class straight ADOS Black man.
which means everyone including some of yall who are middle or higher class having to take a backseat to some others in these programs just like you claim mixed people should

Who is trying to erase their ADOS heritage? I don’t think OP was denying that half of their ancestry can be traced to ADOS. Does that negate the fact that the remaining half of their ancestry, their tie to whiteness, confers a benefit that black brehs don’t enjoy? Not sure where we are disagreeing.No because altho yes biracials can get preferential treatment that does not erase who they are as ADOS Black people espescially if they so choose to identify as such and are treated as black.

That benefit of lightskin that can be found amongst other blacks with 2 parents that are of that skintone. Plus I just said that lightskins can have a one up compared to others im not denying that.Who is trying to erase their ADOS heritage?

the disagreement is on you guys saying they are being used as pawns, if they are AA and identify as black there is no being used as pawns(whatever that means) that is their right to use it being ados
Could systems and entities use them for sinister reasons yes, but thats not exclusive to them thats ADOS people in general that can be used like that.

It's not about them being light skinned
It's about the fact that half of their family has benefitted from white supremacy for however long they've been in America

Candice Owens has seen far more success among whites c00nning than she would ever see among us if she was pushing a pro black agenda.
