Y’all have to do better than this. This could literally be said for every movement that involves white people. It could be said after the slaves were freed, and during the civil rights movement.
But let me guess, you’re non AA right?

I get the clear up But the term DOS makes me uncomfortable. Yeah we got slave blood but idk man. I feel people are gonna just use it to malign us. I've been trying to think of a better term, kinda stumped tho.
, gave them what they wanted, we’ll keep our dirty slave blood to ourselvesBut we do have culture and a home land. Genetically we are indigenous to the U.S. The cultural aspect goes without saying.I’m not that fond of it being a marker of us
But everyone else wanted to be on “we’re not like THOSE nikkas(AA’s) over there, we actually have culture” time
Some of us said “aight, bet”, gave them what they wanted, we’ll keep our dirty slave blood to ourselves
For me, it’s not that I’m exactly proud of being a product of imperialism,
But I’m not ashamed that I’m related to slaves, in a world where we are made to feel bad about it. We made such drastic comebacks that everyone else had to cheat, break their own rules and establish new rules to win
We’re supposed to be so low and insignificant.. so why everybody worried about what we doing?
To wrap things up, I only use that term when foreigners at buzzfeed or people like Luvvie put on the AA costume and tell me, an actual descent of the people who fought for her right to come here what my best interests are, when those interests are in fact very harmful. When the Chinese disrespect our continental cousins, I don’t reduce my cousins to childish passive aggressive ridicule, I blame immediately the Chinese
I only use the term DOS to describe nuance
Precisely, but the general consensus around other black ethnicities is that “we have lost our way and home”... we are some how an embarrassment to them in a wayBut we do have culture and a home land. Genetically we are indigenous to the U.S. The cultural aspect goes without saying.
Here's the thing, breh, they malign us anyway. Cacs, foreigners, everybody already maligns us for what we are. It don't even matter what we call ourselves, they all know who we're descended from.I get the clear up But the term DOS makes me uncomfortable. Yeah we got slave blood but idk man.

I want everybody "uncomfortable" until we're made whole.
