It's like "are you not proud to be of your own race?" Many times, where I live, it's the Black people. Not sure why. A lot of the black kids around here will go around saying stuff like "I'm Black and Asian", and then you ask, "So, which one of your parents is Asian?" and then they'll say something like "Oh, my great grandfather". Or my great grandfather is Native American. Or, he's White. Or he's Hispanic, because I'm 1/4 Puerto Rican! Seriously, what's the deal? Why do you need to be everything but Black? Why are you lying? That just bothers me. Perhaps they feel like there is nothing to be proud of in their race. Maybe. Idk.

Whites can be Hispanic, it's not a race.    I know, let me rephrase that, most white Americans tend to say that they're Hispanic. Most of them? Around here, Whites don't approve of the Hispanic influence. Go to Saint Cloud High. I've spoken to the Whites there, they want to go to Harmony because they'd "rather be with Niggers than Spics". Keep in mind this isn't only Rednecks that I've spoken to, I only know about 3 Rednecks in that whole school and one in mine. well thats saint cloud, I'm talking about my school not yours. kidd rune Posted at 12:41 pm on Sep. 28, 2008 Quote: from babygurl 2008 at 7:52 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Quote: from kidd rune at 10:39 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Quote: from babygurl 2008 at 7:34 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 LOl, down here its the whites they always saying how they're Hispanics and stuff, I don't lie about my race, I'm proud of my race.

I like it I enjoy it. But its not like THE MOST important thing in life. People who want to to hide their black heritage are sad like they are ashamed of it. That is sad. People who are proud to be white and think that is the most important thing in the world are also sad.   babygurl 2008 Posted at 7:52 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Quote: from kidd rune at 10:39 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Quote: from babygurl 2008 at 7:34 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 LOl, down here its the whites they always saying how they're Hispanics and stuff, I don't lie about my race, I'm proud of my race.

The Artful Dodger Posted at 7:49 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 I use to hate being black when I was little. Then high school came. Thats where all the black kids have to assert their 'blackness' to the pale skinned majority. Compensating for number with volume. Now I feel alot more grownup, and comfortable in my skin.   It's tough to find a 100% pure black person in the US or Canada anyway, so that's why alot of kids feel they should play-up their genetic 'diversity'. Unfortunately what it comes out as is "I'm not like those other black people. I'm better". Headst0ck Posted at 7:45 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 They're probably self-hating.....I know a lot of people like that who actually resent being black. The Artful Dodger Posted at 7:43 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Yeah. I don't like it either. kidd rune Posted at 7:39 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 Quote: from babygurl 2008 at 7:34 pm on Sep. 27, 2008 LOl, down here its the whites they always saying how they're Hispanics and stuff, I don't lie about my race, I'm proud of my race.

They're just following the white man's cue. Sure.

Also, they could be 3/4 White and 1/4 Black and consider themselves Black again. Maybe where you live it's different, but around here people call themselves Black if they're like that (unless they're Hispanic).

If you're great great grandfather is asian, that does not make you a full blooded asian. Seriously. I didn't say that they were lying about perhaps having mixed ancestry somewhere along the line. The point was, why are they going around speaking japanese and claiming to be japanese if the last japanese person in their family was three generations ago? they may be proud of that factor. Dare to be different leaps to mind. When i was younger i used to tell people i was half dryad (tree person) because its cool. Its just something people do! its a factor of interest for others. sicosys Posted at 8:43 am on Sep. 27, 2008 I am white. Most recent 15 of 31 previous replies displayed.
