Not every non-black minority can disappear like this dude in the article and face similar struggles to black folk, though.

I do agree the labels need to go.

It's interesting that he "embraced" his heritage. Seems like he would have happily continued being white if he could have done it more easily.

In fairness, his mom is Italian and Middle Eastern folks are thrown into the white category on the census. In practical terms, "white" is probably the most fitting definition for him.

Still....non-black immigrants have to be handled on a case by case basis. They are not to be trusted as most would happily string us from a tree to please ol Massa.

Cats were calling me stupid when I said the "White" race was a political fiction.

Ask the 19th Century Irish.

:mjpls:

Agreed.

White is not a set "thing." It changes and morphs to accommodate the situation.

White in America used to mean, English-speaking Protestants from England and maybe Wales/Scotland. Germans and the Nordics came in and it got expanded. Irish are paler than any of them but only became white when all the Russian Jews, Italians, Greeks etc showed up.

Latinos are 50/50. They don't want a "white vs other" setup because it only serves white people.

Latinos want that Latin America caste system shyt with all the different skin tones.

I think folk are thinking that I’m speaking about using people like him as allies. No. Not people who can pass for white. But what about the ones who can’t play that game? I just think we shouldn’t blend black issues with issues of other races, but there are some issues where allies may be required to get a oreferred result. Those saying “fukk everyone” what is their plan? Have yet to hear it.

then we have folk that say __ are the biggest c00ns but does that mean fukk that entire race? Their claims are no longer valid? We have black cooons who will benefit…does the mean fukk black peoples then and let’s look for policies that will only benefit non c00ns? It’s not practical.

Again you don’t understand how to use people to your benefit. You can be general enemies but align for a petticoat cause. We are not organized, yet think we will get what we want without having to align with others? Ok. What’s your plan?

I don’t think I’ve made myself clear.

fukk “allies”.

First of all, you from Cacnada, so worry about these imaginary “alliances” in your home country that claims to love multiculturalism so much :mjlol:

Secondly, it’s been way too many examples in the past and current of “allies” taking advantage of the Black struggle and using us as a stepping stone and foundation to get a leg up in Cac society and to be in better graces with said society similar to this Arab nikka in OP.

Ask these “allies” if Black Americans/ADOS/FBA rightfully deserve reparations, self-sufficiency, and cultural self-preservation and see what they say. Some of them will even act like they’re in agreement with those ideals, but when it comes to put that support in practice? :francis:

These “allies” ain’t nothing but parasites with their own ulterior motives at the end of the day. Ain’t no different than the IsItReallys (“Jews”) acting like they were “allies” of the Civil Rights Movement in addition to being behind the creation of the National Urban League and NAACP all the while soaking up the accolades and shyt while Black folks were on the frontlines being greeted by hostile opposition.

Ain’t tryna hear none of that “ally” talk. Keep that silly nonsense to yourself brodie.
