      Basically since the days of slavery, there has been a societal rule known as the "one-drop" rule, which says that if you have "one-drop" of black blood in you, that makes you black. This rule is utter and complete rubbish though because there were then and still are now people who have black ancestry who look white. It seems that race is just based on how a person looks, which is the very definition of superficial.

Take for instance Eartha Kit daughter, before her nose job "black" after nose job "white." Her DNA didn't change, just blacks who claimed her stance did. Looks matter over actual blood. Which is why Cardi B can get by with the "supposedly" bad slur (nword) yet apologized over a fucking hairstyle.

      I'm half black but with light enough skin to pass for white if I cover up my 3b/c hair, and I haven't been to a Black affinity group in years because everyone will glare at me if I open my mouth in the slightest. For a lot of half black people, you're treated as either 100% black or not black at all.

      The one-drop rule is a legal principle of racial classification that was prominent in the 20th-century United States. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of "black blood") is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms). HOWEVER, people in many other countries have tended to treat race less rigidly, both in their self-identification and how they regard others. Just as a person with physically recognizable African ancestry can claim to be black in the United States, someone with recognizable Caucasian ancestry may be considered white in Brazil, even if mixed race. According to Jose Neinstein, a native white Brazilian and executive director of the Brazilian-American Cultural Institute in Washington, in the United States, "If you are not quite white, then you are black." However, in Brazil, "If you are not quite black, then you are white." Neinstein recalls talking with a man of Poitier's complexion when in Brazil: "We were discussing ethnicity, and I asked him, 'What do you think about this from your perspective as a black man?' He turned his head to me and said, 'I'm not black,' ... It simply paralyzed me. I couldn't ask another question."

    Obviously still a great video, but as a history major I'd like to add that I love how they made it seem almost like a court proceeding, drawing parallels to the US's historic past of trying to legally define race to maintain the ability to enslave or discriminate against black people. Also, DNA tests that tell you what country you're from are based on what specific genes they notice in your DNA that often belong to specific groups, and the percentages they give aren't based on your actual heritage. That's how both my mom and my aunt got different results and percentages on ancestry despite the website still confirming that they were sisters from the same mother and father.

    • @rachelfox8108

      @failedartguy Місяць тому +2

      @@Eosinophyllis That’s really interesting, thank you for sharing! Another note that may be worth considering specifically in the case of indigenous people is that the US and Canadian governments historically benefited when they could limit the number of people considered to be of indigenous heritage, as it made it easier to enact colonization and fabricate claims to indigenous land and resources. When combined with the historical economic disenfranchisement of indigenous people limiting their access to genetic testing (which in turn makes laboratories which run those tests less likely to invest in discovering genes common among those groups), the reasons why these tests fail BIPOC and Indigenous people specifically becomes far more clear.
      Sorry if you’re already well aware of this, I just wanted to share the information I have on this topic since I’ve studied this as a part of my history degree and hope to teach in Canada in the future.

      Ganda Gandara Filipinos don’t count. Your ancestry is Austro-Polynesian and/or Caucasian. Philippians are more likely to look black or white than Asian. Well, they used to. Due to excessive migration in the past centuries, that might have changed drastically. I mean there are white people everywhere in the past half millennia. And the Chinese are migrating like flies.
      As for Philippine asians, they are relatively new. You guys aren’t even Asian. Only called as such cuz of the regional naming.
      And also people being uneducated. And yes, the English word for Filipino (citizens of Felipe or Philip anglicized) is Philippian. Yes, similar to that city state in Greece which is named Filippo which is Philip anglicized. Remember, the South East of Asia was once named East Indies. You could’ve been called Indians. So why do you call yourselves Asians, I would never know. I always say islanders but I would be corrected by ignorant people who have no idea what they’re talking about. Even would say that they aren’t American nor Spanish. Which is especially weird considering it hasn’t even been 100 years since Americans left and for the longest time, was a Spanish colony. The other nations surrounding that country know their culture now and integrated English or French or Dutch. Not the Philippines though. Weird.
      Terminology aside and back to biology, there’s a reason why some quarter look more or less the other and it’s due to genetic skipping. Some dominant genes go dormant and the recessive ones become the more dominant and that generation will have more dominant recessive genes than the dominant ones. But when they have a kid, their offsprings won’t look like the parents but their grandparents (dominant genes are more dominant again).

      Unless you're talking about native Americans this can't be described as an ethnicity because it's entirely a nationality so the real question is whether or not they
      1) are a citizen
      2) live here
      3) live by basically every *actual* American cultural paradigm

    As a half Asian, this was quite funny. My dad’s black and my mom’s Asian. The way that black people except that 10% but some of my distant Asian family don’t count me as Asian… y’all are so real for this.

      One drop rule is still mainly pushed by blacks, and they do claim Megan. They claim anyone that "looks" mildly black. Take for instance Eartha Kit daughter, before her nose job "black" after nose job "white." Her DNA didn't change, just blacks who claimed her stance did. Looks matter over actual blood. Which is why Cardi B can get by with the "supposedly" bad slur (nword) yet apologized over a fucking hairstyle.
