@Harley4Life it exemplifies the negativity white people use to suppress anyone.

@Harley4Life again, what does it matter? if they want to be taken as black. that is them. let it be. don't make an issue of it.

@Harley4Life sorry you are missing what I am simply saying.
@cycleman i understand what you are saying. I just find the humor in the fact you keep giving me a non answer
