Topic: Kola Boof on Soledad O'Brien Posted: Dec 06 2012 at 4:44pm |
Does anyone follow Kola on Facebook. Here's what she had to say about Soledad.
A White Woman (Soledad O'Brien) is given the power to DICTATE to Blacks what "blackness" is....she of an Irish name, white skin & everything but the burden.
She is to define an entire race of people from AFRICA based on the 1 drop rule invented by the KKK and we're supposed to listen to her and not our own continent. It's so typically arrogant and AMERICAN RACIST. ``````````````````````````` ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have a few drops of TURKISH blood--why can't I do a "White In America' tv. special. Explain that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And she goes on and on with other posters..
what you say BHM? I personally like Soledad, but should she have covered the "Black in America" segments? Should the 1 drop still apply?

The "one drop rule" as been really overstated in the last 2 decades Black Americans don't use the "one drop rule"... never have to be honest We use/used a mixture of rules inspired by the "one drop rule" and the "common sense" rule but more so the "common sense" rule The "common sense" rule is actually understated There have been many racial-determination court cases that have used the rule of "common sense" than there has been "one drop rule" I wish people would pick up a damn book, geesh

I'm sure there are 1 or 2 points somewhere in her gibberish rant But she's about 300 yrs+ too late We have a community and it's imperfectly made but it's too late to rearrange that ish now and plus, there's really no (political, social, economical) benefit to us in it

BHM erased my a whole post. Screw Kola, she's got issues with lighter blacks. She has issues about not being seen a mixed and is completely moronic and disrespectful. And to think I liked her at a time. I'm so tired of colorism in the black community.. You are black if you look it, you identify yourself as black, and if you have black ancestors.

Soledad has been fooling the world with that perm. I consider anybody with that grade of hair(child pic) to be Black. However, Soledad has White children so she should have been automatically disqualified to speak for the Black race.
