I hear you. I just think she’s still black. She was just a sociopath. She put the benefits of passing before her people and that’s crazy to me. I could never forsake my family but that’s me.
You still think she’s Black because of the one drop rule. She’s mixed. She’s literally mixed. That isn’t fully acknowledged by whites because of their hatred and how they wanted to structure American society. Anywhere else on this planet, a person who is half Black or less is not considered a fully Black person.
If someone is a 1/4 Korean and 3/4 European and LOOKS WHITE, or even 1/2 but still looks White, Korean ppl ain’t running to call that person Korean. They will acknowledge their lineage.
The point is, tho, to some,
what you look like— how you are perceived by society, is what you are.
It’s a little different if we’re literally talking about someone who is half Black, half White, but it’s really about ppl who are 1/4 or 1/8 Black and Black folks running to claim them like they are a Black person walking through the world having the Black experience.
Nah, you have one Black grandmother and walk through the world with sandy blonde straight hair and grey eyes; you are White.
