Biracial people with one black parent in America are and have been considered black by American society/white supremacy for 100's of years. This means they have lived in mostly black neighborhoods, had the same political and social interests as those black people in those neighborhoods, and many have mated with those black people.
If there were this separation as you claim there would be proof of this within this society.
There would be long standing biracial neighborhoods, biracial politicians, long standing biracial political, business, and religious organizations.
You would actually see proof of this separation in real terms, not by having to ask some biracial girl.
The NAACP was more concerned about the educated "high yellow" people having equal rights to whites 100 years ago; they weren't as concerned about the dark skin field Blacks. Too; "Colored" back in the day meant light skin "Black" but, "Negro" was usually given to the dark skin people, even by other Blacks.
Diversity has also run it's course...and the idea is also dated.
Diversity will only become dated when American ceases to be a nation of immigrants. Everyday the ingredients of American diversity are added to the mix as new immigrants from different countries enter and become a part of the American mosaic.

Sorry that you are oblivious to that fact.
But Amerikkka has never intergrated the cultures into their society instead they "Americanized" it or found an isolated spot and designated that culture to flourish on its own, multiculturalism and diversity are smoke and mirrors, describing Amerikkka's culture as such is false if you don't believe look at "pop culture"

A truly ahistorical and idiotic statement. The NAACP was originally called the National Negro Committee so from the start your argument simply evaporates. The second unescapable fact is the issue that consumed the nasent organization was the epidemic of lynchings which to my knowledge did little to discriminate between light skinned Negros and those whose hue was darker than blue not some fallacious effort to advance "high yellow" black folk.
I suggest sticking with football and leave African History to folks who have something more than a back of a matchbook knowledge of the subject.

As I have pointed out previously, America culture has been transformed by its diverse members just as they have by the larger national culture. If you don't understand that, I can't help you.

I will show you proof right now and, as always, it will be ignored:

Fast-forward to November 2006 and in a 2006 Zogby International poll, 55% of whites considered Obama as biracial after being told that Obama's mother was white and his Kenyan father was black. Even more Hispanics -- 61% -- also saw Obama as biracial. But interestingly, 66% of the blacks polled classified Obama as black.
So I understand how "white guilt" feels to some degree, and it ain't pretty. I wish the dark skinned people were treated as well as everyone, as should the gays, women, immigrants etc. I see the reality...don't like it, but I do see it.
Why don't we ever hear about the "tragic negro" or the "tragic homosexual" or the "tragic woman"
I have no problem being mixed, it's society and people like you that have the problem.

Let's be honest here victorian. One can gather many things from ALL of your anti-Black American rants that are crystal clear to the majority of us who know better. The purpose of your thread was to garner "White sympathy" for your "curse of having Black blood" and being perpetually tied to "those people".
The most tragic part about the vast majority of your posts is that it is clearly and sadly the result of 1) a Black parent who had self hatred and 2) the product of the self hatred who blames the 'cursed' Black blood for preventing a more privileged life.
So let's just be honest victorian and admit that you think that your "White blood" automatically makes you superior to any Black American with two Black parents and it should therefore "entitle" you to certain privileges and an elevated status in society. That is the reason why you are angry. You are angry because American society still sees you as a Black man...perhaps a lighter skinned Black man but a Black man none the less and you resent being relegated to that status.
Please look through these posts and find "anti-black rants" that prove I "hate my African blood":
...and I like how he disrespects our women in the process. That's biracials for you.
So, my statements against ghetto hoochies (sp?) are the result of my race...but you don't have anything against mixed people. Okay.
And if you want to hear someone disrespecting black women why not listen to some modern, mainstream rap sometime. No one hates black women in America today more than black American entertainers...AND HOW THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN? I mean, how did we get from lyrics like this:
Quote:
Look here, not a thing to fear
Brother to brother not another as sincere
Teach a man how to be father
To never tell a woman he can't bother
You can't say you don't know
What I'm talkin' 'bout
But one day ... brothers gonna work it out
Please send an angel of mercy to swoop down and bestow upon victorianpunk honorary White person status and wash away his Blackness for all eternity. And may he forever be able to pass the brown paper bag test.
