I’m a colorist because Iman is my ideal black woman.

Western Europe is really Americanized, but I swear none of the Black Africans call themselves black or group themselves as black etc. They mainly go by their country of origin or tribe. Even the West Africans.

Even the white people there don't call themselves white. They say they are Danish, Swiss, Flemish etc. If they were to say they were just white or white European it would be seen as cringe and they would be accused of being a globalist or being an EU-phile (as in that organization).

But I think this is all because on continental Europe they don't require people to fill in racial things on government papers.

PS. All of the above excludes the UK.

Well it’s more or less because Americans specifically AAs and most american whites have 0 ties to their ethnicity or country of origin, making race more important
That’s mainly why I’m using America is a standpoint, it’s where race is actually a genuine thing and a form of identification to an extent

Race is much more important in the States since it is very tied into the history of the nation. During slavery it shifted from a bunch of Europeans and Africans to whites and blacks.

Whites are predicted to become the minority in 2045 so it is very important.

 

[King Khufu]

I’m waiting for someone to say the original humans are Somalis. Lmao

It might be possible.
Someone once had said Somali might be the original language to other languages suggested .

 

[Mehdi Hassan]

@a y a n and @borednibba9 can both of you guys clearly state what you are arguing

Me that Somalis aren't black and her that they are lmao.

2050 actually but what is it you mean by that?

 

[Mehdi Hassan]

Debating how race in Europe or Africa or Asia isn’t as entertaining cause no one takes it as seriously tho so
on a worldwide scale if you’re talking race it still centers around the western world, even more so NA

Why should race matter at all though? You say America takes it more seriously than any other country but just think about that for a moment. And North America also includes Canada and Mexico, with populations of 38 and 126 million, respectively. It isn't just America.

Most White Americans know their ethnic origin, and even among African Americans there are African immigrants and their descendants. Not all AAs are descendants of slaves.

Show me caucasian somalians?

 

[Mehdi Hassan]

Most of the DNA results on here beg to differ

black again does not mean west African
Who said you got to choose what race you were categorized in? Kkk

Race as a whole is a social construct, you’re still under the same social category as other sub Saharan Africans regardless
no such thing as eAsT AfrIcaN or cUshiTiC when you’re looking at race, we still are Somali and a Cushitic ppl tho

In Minnesota you can identify as East African and Somali. I wasn't born in America, never been, don't want to go, so how could I dictate racial categories there? I'm not categorized as anything since I don't tick any boxes, so what you say makes no sense. I'm not American.

Show you any Somalis?

Racism is a much smaller issue in Canada and Latin America.

And they're called Somalis, not Somalians or whatever you spelt.

 

[Mehdi Hassan]

Somalis are Caucasian. Get over it and get out this site you .

 

[King Khufu]

You had no idea what I said do you?
Lmaoooooooo
it's seems like somebody not thinking with a camel's mouth today w/u yeah

Somalis are Caucasian.

Now for the last time, get out.

 

[JamAm21]

These are Tamil and they could honestly both have AA freepasses.

They look nothing like AA. I can clearly tell their indian and I live in America

 

[JamAm21]

Me that Somalis aren't black and her that they are lmao.

Iman identifies as a black though.

 

[JamAm21]

Most White Americans know their ethnic origin, and even among African Americans there are African immigrants and their descendants. Not all AAs are descendants of slaves.

Nobody considers african or Carribean immigrants as african american. Unless they married into African American families then they are not considered as. That's why ados is rising.

Lol latin america has even bigger race problems than america and Canada also has racism near usa.
