I Am Black, But Skin Color Has Nothing To Do With Who I Am
One thing that pisses me off to no end.
I say i havent done x, y, or z.
I say i havent seen a, b, or c.
I say i dont like s, q, or r.
Then people say im an oreo
Or tell me im not black. Im a white person stuck in a black persons body. They literally question my blackness because i like anime because i dont dress up. Because i dont eat a lot meat. Because i dont go to church. Etc etc, you know what the sterotype is.
Ive had so many people talk to me about it but then when i tell them something about me they say im not black or that im an oreo. That i have no culture. And it really just pisses me off.
My color doesnt define me! It doesnt dictate who i should be. It wont tell you my likes or dislikes. Why is it that people say they dont want to be sterotyped and then judge me for not conforming to the sterotype our community is supposedly trying to erase?
Ahhhhhh! Its so annoying.
Even if i tell people my skin color doesnt define me, that i define my skin color no one listens. What is this!?! And why is that?
Yea, im weird. Yea, im black. Or was i just not supposed to happen and this is my punishment for not being aborted. Its really just confusing to me. "Not all black people are the same" they say and then everyone looks at me sideways.
