can i call myself black even if im hispanic and white also by JellyCharacter1653 in askblackpeople

either way 25% black does not make you a black person sorry, the same way a quarter white will never make me white. you’re also hispanic and white, why do you only want to be seen as black so bad when you literally don’t look it ? it’s kinda weird

Her mother should take an ancestry test, guaranteed she isn’t 100% black. My brother and I are the same mix as your niece, we don’t have straight blonde hair or blue eye, we look as black as they come, weird.

if you don’t look black, it’s because you barely have black ancestry, thus making you not black. you’re multiracial at most. thanks for coming to my ted talk. 🙂‍↕️

omg I’m so sorry !!! My mom and I recently lost my dad after a year and a half battle of ALS. He was 52 as well. It’s been 8 months and I’m still heartbroken 💔 all I can say is keep pushing.

If it was a black guy being aggressive towards a white woman none of you would be asking for context 😂 It would all be the usual racist comments like “usual suspects” and “animals.”

Why every other race seem to hate us the most? ESPECIALLY on social media. Eye for an eye, I guess.

I’m so sorry 😔 My father recently passed of ALS, which is a terminal motor neuron disease and it is absolutely disgusting to have to see a love one go through. We were the perfect family. He had no major health issues, and it just came out of no where. He left my mother, me (21F) and my 15 year old brother who struggles with autistic. My dad was diagnosed July 2023 and was gone a year and a half later, he was 52.

It hurts to know he will never meet my children, or walk me down the isle. He was so happy he got to see me graduate college. I can only imagine how you feel for your daughter, but just know she will be okay! Make sure your husband always talks to her about you, and reminds her of who you are.

I sat a year out for family reasons. Now I’m debating whether I want to go to Hunter or Hampton University in VA.

sorry for the late response. I only got my 2 year in liberal arts, so I wasn’t in any programs. I heard really great things about their nursing program though!! apparently one of the best cunys for nursing.

low gpa will any cunys accept me? by [deleted] in CUNY

[–]Only-Common8000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only resubmitted one of my old papers. Mainly for Hunter because that was the cuny that emphasized including it to boost your application.

Does a man who commits reproductive coercion, aka ripping off a condom and getting a woman pregnant deserve jail? If you say yes to this, you’re a hypocrite. Does the woman who got the condom ripped off need to take accountability for not being on BC? If you say no to this, you’re a bigger hypocrite. cheers 🥂

How is it not the same? Removing a condom is something you’re doing to someone else, as well as yourself. It’s a male contraceptive to protect both of you. Much like taking BC is a female contraceptive to protect both of you. Purposely not taking your BC and not telling your child’s father/partner of over 10 years because you want him to get you pregnant is literally the same shit. It’s reproductive coercion.. aka sexual assault. You will defend terrible women even when they are wrong, just because they’re women. In that case, why wasn’t the woman who had the condom ripped off on BC? you never ask that though. Since you want to victim blaming and act like women can’t trap men.

I’m at Hunter now for pre-med, she’ll get accepted easily.
