*SLOW CLAP* Did you notice Kaleigh took all of her pictures down on IG where she looked white passing? With her hair straight she looks like a white woman, only recently did she do the natural hair look. That’s not a crime but it does seem like she and the pageant are playing up the “natural hair” bit for diversity points and to appeal to black women. And we fell for it as usual because we are desperate for wins smh. I’m happy for their win and for mixed girls to have representation but they need to stop with the “black girl magic” stuff. It just causes too much confusion and too many problems.
I saw it and I’m so glad y’all did too.
Looks like Chrissie's in the house
Chrisieeeee Do A Video On This!
This indicates that she knows her privileges..being racially ambiguous...is a thing.
Eugenics...
Girl only 7% of Miss Universe winners are black. I'd love to hear what you have to say.
These mixed girls are not the first "black women" to wear their hair in a natural state while running the pageant. I can not believe people already forgot Deshauna Barber who won miss USA back in 2016.
@@redd-iveee4400 In 2017 she had worn her hair natural. I'm talking about how no one pay attention to black women like Deshauna Barber with 4c hair type, but wants to make a biracial like the one from last night the face of natural hair black woman which is not the case.
Kenya Moore has long natural hair and she won miss USA
Blue Raven87
I don't think she wore her natural hair most of the time though or even when she won. What's important here is most of the women in this aren't black and they shouldn't be called black. Who did what first shouldn't even be part of the conversation cause they're not black at all
Scoring57 It’s also important to give us credit where credit is due...if you look up UA-cam videos of Kenya Moore, a black woman, she has long thick natural hair just as she did when she won Miss USA...furthermore this commenter spoke about “who did what” and I wanted to say that Kenya Moore has long natural hair and she won.
@@Scoring57 I brought up Deshauna because she is black. It is weird how the media is giving these biracial girls credit to go natural, but doesn't give props to black women that went natural.
It's the Meghan Markle effect point blank period.
Karen Taylor definitely
You are your maternal...your mom's child...Meehan Markle is black
@@midoscent I agree the mom is the one that carries the life (baby) and gives birth to the life therefore you are what your mother is
PERIODT!!
@@norashouldknow7091 ...AND. scientifically the miTochondrial DNA is maternal and is 100% ...a man's DNA can NEVER be 100%
I see black women on shaderoom cerebrating this but in my mind I'm so sad , this is very telling of our self esteem as group of women
These the same ones who are obsessed with Megan Markle. 🙄🙄
@@neeshespieces Exactly. I feel BW cling so hard onto biracials cause they believe that their hype/ standard would triggle down to them.
Facts it's becoming pathetic, in all actuality there not one of us🙅🏿
@@neeshespieces Thank you sister, I got into a argument with other sisters about Meghan Markle, this woman doesn't give a dam about black women or people, she never speaks on behalf of the race and she has the platform, who does she align herself with white people.
Many DS black women hate themselves and live vicariously through mixed and biracial women, they lift these women above themselves out of low self esteem. The internal self hatred is very strong within them, plus add societal norms to that and that's where we are. Those of us (DSBW) that love ourselves are in the minority. I hate to say it, but it isn't changing anytime soon.
These are not black girls. You hit the nail right on the head. This is social engineering plain and simple.
You are spot on! More people need to read your comment because it's nothing but pure truth here.
Did you notice it's mostly only black women's image being erased and replaced with mixed race women, and not really the guys as much, Darkskin black men are still represented in their fking image and it's pissing me off how disgustingly targeted this SICK RACIST AGENDA is, Not ONLY by the help of the white media but black ppl are helping this erasure with calling any and everyone black who isn't.
@@MelaninBae90
Dark skin black men are represented cause in whyte people's world with their weird fetishes, they consider dark skin masculine for some reason. And they love representing black people in stereotypes that their racist minds can understand. But eventually the same will happen with black men cause this is about race not gender. The only problem black women have is I think men are more open to all kinds of women (I'm included in that) and chase women more than women chase men. So it's easier to market this erasure to black men by representing non-black women as the image of beauty. It's harder to market it to black women because they're a lot more loyal and as women aren't as open to other groups of men. But like I said I feel the plan is to do the same with black male representation cause just look at the new Pokemon Live action movie. I'm sure the lead is meant to be a black guy and a part of the whole black panther wave of "black" representation
Only image being erased is there's. This is a process and change is happening but they have us thinking that we are the ones being erased. TRUST ME every thing going back black because their birth rates won't sustain them it's facts not my opinion. You know they love to flip the script and change the narrative but we know what's going on. #blackplanet
It's crazy!
98% of my cousins are mixed race. They are not black and they will tell you they are not black...they only claim black when they need the cool factor and even then they make it clear they are light skinned and have “good hair” we are not the same.
Well they are black, just black and another race
They are biracial. If they don’t identify as black I don’t i don’t either
AHappyPumpkin exactly. They mixed period.
@Alejandra E A subtle race war between mixed and fully black people!? The white man got what he wanted...
Damn your family is white washed. What a shame.
Our self-esteem must be low as black woman to see this as a WIN for BLACK woman.
It is for a lot of Us. I just don't entertain the sick though.
Same as thing I just said, and yes many black women have horrible self esteem.
Our self esteem must be really low to see it as not. Not every black girl is dark skin. Or even brown skin. If a light skinned chick has won it'll be colorism. Come on stop it. They're lighter skin and loose curls dont take away from my black beauty. I love my skin and my hair. My daughters are lighter than me they look mixed but they are black. Proud and African. We need to stop this. My daughter feel some type of way having to hear girls gripe about them not looking black. I said girl you black love it and own it. Colorism is a bitch!
I think the lack of representation in the media plays a major role. Hollywood is saturated with light skinned women. They've been normalized, propped up as "ideal" and generally accepted. But Black women are still placed on the side. Given roles that, for most, place them in a stereotypical role that has them play the "loud, angry Black baby mama." Movies like "Black Panther" or shows like "How to Get Away With Murder" are a step in the right direction, but the Black community deserves more. I just think it helps to have young Black girls see beautiful, talented & smart Black women on the big screen. Letting them know they can achieve anything. Until that happens more often, well... we see the effects now. (just my opinion)
@@jeromepowell9245 I never thought a 'Black' man was president. He is mixed!
I Thought I Was Over Thinking This Topic At 1st, But I Was SOOOO Relieved To See That My Real Black Sistas Were On The Same Page, Thanks For Being A Safe Place For Me✊🏿👑
Same here🗣🗣👏🏽
With you on this girlfriend. Global solidarity (UK).
Yes exactly! Every biracial is black has to stop.
Nek White Me too. It even seems like this girl darkened her skin and made sure to have the coily hair. Just wondering if the thought was can’t win as a white but let me try the Black side.
Chollie s She would not win as white although she looks white in some pictures. But why the darker skin and coiled hair for the pageant
Lol ima start putting white on these job applications and see the look on their face when i show up with my brown skin and 4Z hair! Ima just play with them, like they love playing with us🤷🏾♀️
😂😂😂
I did that once and guess what.....i got the job
See i know it works! And think about it, what can they really say? Oh on your application here you stated that you were white? Shhhhiii they might have a lawsuit on their hands if they do that, id play that rachel whatever card ina millisecond!
😂🤣😂🤣
Bet!😂
U betta come through with the specification!!! Living yo whole life white then wanna claim black when u want benefits!! TALK ABOUT IT!!👏👏👏👏
sunny marie
They don't live their lives white. That's not the point here. The point is the problems that come when you identify someone as something they're not. Meaning we don't want them to live black. They shouldn't suddenly become "black" just cause they 'live black'. They're not black to begin with. There's no path to becoming black, you just have to be born black so let's not make it about what they do. It's all about what they are and aren't
thats whats everyone is doing these days especially these mixed chicks, all they do is make their hair look curly and these judges think its their ability to buck te trend and make her the winner.
white guilt 101
@@jeromepowell9245 she will claim anything if it means winning, most of these mixed chicks know thats how you make it in entertainment these days
Cough cough cardi cough cough
so you admit there are benefits to being black?
The one-drop rulers aren’t going to like this one, Paris.
Biracials will simply replace them with those low birth rates. Nothing but lies and propaganda they know they are being erased and want us to believe it's it. 😂😂😂Nope.
@@20ice47 opioid addict😂😂😂😂
Jerome Powell That couldn’t be further from the truth. The idea that “black genes are dominant” is rooted in Jim Crow America and the one-drop rule, which you say you don’t believe.
are jay I read censuses back in the 18th and 19th centuries that had mixed-race people listed as “mulatto”, never “negro”. One drop ruling oneself into blackness is a relatively new thing, I believe.
sid n. You’re right
I identify with popsicles so now I'm a popsicle.
Lol the ridiculousness.
Yes, hunty.....🍡!
@@ParisMilan Beyonce Rihanna and Jordyn wood as you mentioned are not black women they're also mixed race women. We don't have any black standard of beauty that's why everyone can come and claim black in America.
This is why I didn't celebrate their wins. I want another non-mixed dark skin black women to win miss USA and miss universe. I can not stand these pageants though they are fill with both racism and colorism.
I stopped watching it when I saw it.
@Alejandra E I love your idea.
Alejandra E there are pageants for black women. Miss Black USA and Miss Black Universe.
The thing is... mixed girls with the typical loose curls never actually had to "go natural". They are the standard of black hair, the "good hair". The natural hair movement was specifically created for black women with coily, kinky 4 type hair. It makes me laugh to see that mixed women are now the face of the natural hair movement because that's the complete opposite of what it was started for.
I always can count on Paris to set MY asx STRAIGHT...I had NO idea that Miss Teen USA was biracial! Their all BEAUTIFUL but STOP using your "black side" as an advantage. Playing both sides.
@@bamababii5989 Then they need to set these media outlets straight. Silence is acceptance. Demand correction from these media outlets to correct their articles and stop living a lie.
Cee Irv86
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUK? How could you not know? Looks like they've gotten you into the sunken place when it comes to what black people look like. These two women are obviously not black, it's not that hard to tell
I knew the moment they called those curls a fro I said no ma'am RESEARCH 🙅 🧐 🤷🗣️
@@bamababii5989
That's probably true. But they live in the same society as everyone else. I'm sure they're aware that being mixed can be a real positive. If they weren't raised in a white environment though it's a different story and you're completely wrong. They absolutely know the advantage of being mixed. Because plenty of black people will make them aware of it by treating them much better than most other people or by giving them a lot attention
Yes, it looks like she tanned.
I don’t understand what’s wrong with saying you’re mixed or biracial instead of white or black, these days it sounds like you’re being offensive when you say that.
I totally agree. My sister identify as mixed race. She will tell you right off she has a black mother and white father and not ashamed to embrace both sides.
Right and its sad black men will argue me down (a black woman) to include biracial/mixed people with us. Since i'm quite petty at times, i'm arguing back like no they're white, they 're going back and forth not even realizing how ridiculous they sound.
@@justanotherabc8888 I also realize black men's biracial children have identity issues. The one's with black mother's are often more balanced. I know I'm not the only person noticing this.
Its really interesting me being a mixed race black man that I can go threw the same stares in stores the same glares at night on streets the same uncomfortableness in elevators and unless theres the n word for mixed ppl ive been called it and at the end of the day the “real black” people cant even accept us but yall are so quick to divide amongst your own ppl let all this in fighting keep yourself down and oppressed
@Peter Connell what?
Congrats to the winners. I saw tweets exposing miss teen usa as white passing mixed girl. She went to a tanning bed and got some curl formers to become light skin black girl and a lot of people were fooled. Whoever put this young girl up to it knew she would be uplifted as a black woman and they got the reaction they wanted👀...
Welp
Lovingbwperiod did the people who was defending her know that they got tricked?
Moon Light they called the people divisive, bitter and putting black girls down and one drop rule suggests they’re full black like the rest of us... you know the usual “I’m black and I have this” were also present
It’s sad they think we are policing blackness; when we shouldn’t have to because they add people who have 1% black like demi and call her 1% black queen.... or even Cardi B who is 1/4 or 1/5 black as a black queen and black excellence 😞
I saw that too.
Link?
@@girlpowerbutmakeitblack2655 I thought Cardi B was 0% black
U barely see darkskin gurls in Miss USA
Yep, and its sad
There's a reason for that. It goes back to the owners of the state held Miss USA pageants. I participated in Miss Maine Teen USA and was a top 15. Miss Maine USA and was a first runner up and then my second time participating in Miss Maine (assuming I would win because I was first runner up the year prior) I didn't even make top 10.
I intend to do a series of videos explaining my experience and the deception and snake like business practices behind these pageants, but just wanted to elaborate on your observation.
Who ever runs the state wide pageants (in my case, the same caucasian couple runs Miss Maine, Miss New Hampshire and Miss Massachusetts), is the person (or are the same people) that have direct say in who the judges are (they are often friends or business associates of the state production company) and ultimately who the winner is.
Though they (the production company that runs Maine, NH and Mass) had some black women working for them, I do believe there was racially related reasoning as to why I didn't win. (Meanwhile a caucasian participant who got first runner up 3 times finally won the year that I first participated as a Miss. I won't even get into the other worthy black women that participated before and after me who walk away empty handed). I'm totally leaving out the fact that the woman of the production company yelled at my sister and father (for taking photos and cheering) and threatened to call the police and escort them out during the state pageant ceremony lol. It was after my father talked with her in the hallway (because she was causing a scene in the auditorium while the show is going on) that I no longer became a runner up.
Which participant do you know makes first runner up one year, and then not even top 10 the following year?
My apologies for this essay lol. I need to get my videos out..
Naa Marilyn DESHAUNA Barber was Miss USA in 2016. Also Davina Bennett was Miss Jamaica 2016 and she had a legit 4c Afro.
I agree with you Paris . I think even if they were dark skinned and STILL had a looser texture they wouldn't be having it.
They do look light skin to me
They look brown.
Oh please, we've had darker, and lighter AA girls who have won in these titles before. Do some research. Vanessa Williams was/is NOT bi racial; she has two black parents. Plus during the 80s and 90s there were other black girls with 2 black parents that won. Research the contest the last 30 years. Some of you sound ignorant.
The girl in the middle is dark skin
@@mrsnet
Vanessa can pass though, she is multigenerational mixed just not not directly mixed she has a significant percentage of non-black admixture so still has an ambiguous phenotype just like Robyn Dixon and Gizelle Bryant

Her results:
"23% from Ghana, 17% from the British Isles, 15% from Cameroon, 12% Finnish, 11% Southern European, 7% Togo, 6% Benin, 5% Senegal and 4% Portuguese."

If you and Chrissie did a collab on this, man that would be soooooooooo god
@angel spike
Chrissie is as pro-swirling as most black men. So if we're going to criticize her on that we have to criticize the whole race. She just thinks if it's ok when black men to do it and no one says anything, and some even accept their mixed wives as "black", then black women should have that same option. She supports their choice but she doesn't promote it
Eloho too😁🙏🏾
@angel spike did you read the top comment?
I would love for Paris, Chrissie, and Eloho to collab.
@angel spike no she's not liar just because some of her viewers are swirlers don't lie on her and say she promotes swirling.
I’ve noticed this immediately as soon as I saw this. I was like what is really going on here like what?
I notice in entertainment and sports, that the people are getting lighter, and lighter, and lighter--our people are going to regret this in the future.
Denise Harris
I won't regret it cause I never saw mixed people as black nor did I ever call them 'black'. And as long as you don't accept them as black and keep spaces for black people there will be nothing to regret. Only the idiots who wanted to be identified with mixed people and have their spaces taken will regret it. Products like Chrissie's 'Divine Dark Skin' magazine will provide spaces for black women particularly and black thought in general I hope. Either way it'll be a place to see black faces

MR JRH *shrugs* you’re entitled to your crusty opinion
They always upgrade mixed women as Black when they get achievements...
I'm going to be completely honest. I'm in an interracial relationships with a Persian guy. If we get married and have children I will teach my children they're half black. I noticed black women's biracial children don't have as many identity problems, for the most part they acknowledge they're biracial. The one's I've encountered with black mothers are well balanced( not all but most).
If the black mother don't have self hate issues then I can assure their mixed race child will acknowledge they're mixed race and won't see themselves as superior to blacks. Maybe I'm speaking from experience, my sister is half white( black mother) and don't force herself in black spaces. She acknowledge she's half black.
@laurenissastarling Celebrities???? And where did I mention black men's biracial children? I specifically said black women's.
Mixed race women need their own space.....I am all for that....

darryl ross Even lot of black people who seem fully black have some white in their family tree due to rape from slavery. Why u gotta separate us mixed people though? (I don’t mean in the pageant thing or whatever) but just in general, we’re either too black for the white people or too white to be black. I don’t get why we can’t stand together as a race even though we’re mixed with a little something else.

Yes. Although I'll admit it was kind of hard to tell. But once you're told, the features stand out more. He seems like a cool guy though considering the sort of things he's said on race. He seems to have a good grasp on how things are (maybe it's cause he genuinely looks somewhat black for a mixed person so he's dealt with more of what actual black people deal with.)
You can usually tell a person is mixed, if it's not so obvious by their hairstyle and other small factors. A lot of them have curly hair so if they want to appear completely black or more black they always leave it short (like Peele), wear it in dreads or some other hair style that'll hide their natural curls. I see it a lot with a good amount of light skinned people that look like they could be mixed but don't seem to want to accept that.

s wiggins......it only means your parents were mixed in the past that's why you're light skinned! How do black Americans think they became light skinned? Do you really believe 100% black Africans were enslaved and brought to america and over the centuries their descendants just turned light skinned by magic? No, the enslaved women were raped, the offspring were mixed/light skinned and that's who all light skinned "black" americans descend from today. Mixed today, mixed centuries ago. Its all mixed. Africans are black, you all (i.e. majority of "black" americans) are mixed.
@@TwoWorldsToo lol no African American in this country has 100% African ancestry regardless of skin tone. Yes, I know that I have white lineage somewhere down the line but both my parents, grandparents, great grandparents, etc are black (and not all are light skin) In my family, on both sides, we are a rainbow of complexions, from light to dark. I have Africanoid features and my hair is kinky. Unlike some light skin, biracial women like Megan Markle for ex I cannot pass for white by any means. So yeah, just because I am light skin doesn't mean that I have a white parent. I was raised to be proud to be black and to love and embrace all skin complexions of black people (although I do know that colorism is real)

I think American blacks have it hard because you guys never had a choice to choose your identity , you guys don’t have a tribe origin it was all erased . My mother is Somali and trigray but it’s fare with lose wavy hair but she’s identifies as black . I think it’s hard to determine who’s black in America and who is not because politically black mixed anything is black period in America .
The girl in the first picture is CeCe Kryst I know her personally. She is a very kind spirit. Her mother is a dark skinned black woman. Cece did the big chop with her hair and grew it to that length. She is an attorney this girl is very kind and sweet and determined her mother taught her well. For Cece winning that should be a win for black women because a black woman birthed her and gave her that Magic.
I watched the Miss USA Pageant with my daughter last night we both couldn't tell who was who they all looked alike. Same body and skin tones. Clearly you can tell what the standard was and still is. Never the less.. congrats to all the pageant winners
Thank you thank you. I was having a conversation with my bestie about this. I share your thoughts while she is blinded. My thing was that I'll celebrate when I see a 100%, 4C black woman. But I don't support "beauty" pageants period
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 preach sister!! being black ain't a club to join period. Yes we do come in different shades n features. Am full east African with curly hair plus am Muslim. So one day I wasn't wearing the headscarf bc I was going to swim with some friends in a all lady swimming pool. When people saw my hair is when they go out of their way to ask me if am mixed. I was so disappointed n I said no🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. I feel u could call urself black if only both of ur parents are black to. So plz stop calling this mixed kids black.

gurl bye. You are mixed with arab. That is why your hair has loose curls. You have the same amount of arab middle eastern blood as a mixed person has white blood. You aint 100% anything. You have ancient arab DNA in your blood which is why you dont look anything like a west african.
@@RT-fs9hc get out of here with ur bs & ignorance. So ur saying all black pple need to have an afro & a darker complexion to call them selves black? So all Ethiopians, Somalis and Eritreans are mixed, just bc majority of us have curly hair? I hate when people pretend or think to know everything about us. Even if we have curly or wavy hair it ain't the same texture as a withe/ Arab person's hair. Ever been to the Solomon islands there are full black people with blonde hair and blue eyes, who have 0% of withe blood in them So go back to the homeland & explore. Don't forget we are the first human beings to walk on earth how do u think if some of us didn't look slightly different there would be this so called other races. So I can say no We don't have curly hair bc we got some Arabs in us but they got us in them 🤨. Plus they all see us as a Mother F.. black person. We don't get treated in a different way bc we have curly hair are u dumb. Watch the news & see how they treat us in the middle east when we go to work there, in Libya do I have to go on for u to see the bigger picture. It really hurts when you also get hate from ur own kind shit. Am just tired of this bs 🤦🏾♀️
@@israforever4547 To them blackness is central to West African ancestry, their ancestry, not yours. Any mention of your ancestry will just be used as a tool to be used to their own benefit. Don't hand your name to someone else to define for you bc they will always define it to their benefit. Peace 💚
Paris You called it along time ago about benefiting from being black when it’s convenient ...SMH
I remember George Zimmerman claiming the “Latino” side of his heritage to conveniently get around the label of “white” in the Trayvon Martin case. After all, how could he be a racist if he too was a minority? But, being “white” is what served him in the courtroom. His triumph over Trayvon was ultimately predicated on the fact that he was “white.” Having two “ethnicities” worked in his favor; poor Trayvon was murdered twice. It’s not the exact same thing, but is analogous to the point of your video. Thanks! Excellent topic.
I mean grey is not white OR black. It’s a mix of both colors. Same with *mixed* ppl. And I really don’t get why ppl get offended by that.
If you’re mixed reading this, don’t be triggered ❤️
Did they forget about viola Davis showing her natural hair on the red carpet. My sisters your natural hair is enough and stop looking for mix and barraical as the original black woman
I wouldnt even give the #mixedgirlmagic cause people need to make their own hashtag.💅🏾
I was just thinking this
@Anastasie' Moreau No they need to be original
Iktr, lmao
@Black Girls Living Well It does matter because they're constantly taking from black women. I feel that as long as they stay in their lane it won't be a problem.
@Black Girls Living Well You're a colorist bye
I grew up in the 1980’s. All we had was Vanessa Williams and they took her crown. I’m just happy to see non blue eyed blondes win. Your points are 💯 about only the 3 range hair and the bi racial looks are what is accepted in the media. I’m glad to see that young sistas like you have a platform to speak knowledge.
Vanessa Williams lost her crown, but the gave it to the 1st runner up who was black. I think her names was Suzette Charles.
People came at me in the comments because I said the girl on the left was mixed. It’s true she’s not black
Kudos to them all winning! I just saw that Tracee Ellis Ross is gettinf a spin-off show from Blackish called Mixed-ish. Seeing is that our country is blenidng more, maybe one day biracial will legit be recognized at its own category
And mostly black people I seen sharing it.
As for Cheslie, her IG shows she actually has black friends. I still hold biracials with black moms closer to my heart... those are good representation for my own biracial daughter ♥️
Amen. And may she rest in peace.
I feel like they tanned tf out of the teen usa girl too. I'm biracial and I totally agree. Biracial people only claim black when it works for them ie being the first black blah blah blah to do something. Any other time they stress that they are mixed or biracial. You hit the nail on the head girl!
But you know what Paris society still see's these womens as black period. My niece is mixed and not fitting in no where please don't do this stop. My nieces is a sista your doing to much you don't know how someone was raised and how they identify. You are not in their families you don't know their struggles period.
I honestly feel like the constant need to be anything or embrace anything that makes black look good is one of the biggest detriments to our people. There’s this constant need for validation and it’s a clear reflection of the inherent lack of self-worth that most black people claim to have. We open our spaces to everyone with no discrimination and are alarmed when their presence eclipses ours in those spaces. I wish black people would understand that we are enough. It’s just...pathetic at this point. When I saw these posts, my first thought was there’s only one black woman here and the fact that people (mostly black women-blatantly obvious by the diction of the post and even that is a whole other conversation regarding the influence of black women in popular rhetoric and culture) would take offense to that reality. At this point it’s just embarrassing to see how degenerate we’ve become. That is all 😞
1st off i understand what you mean, BUT black dominates. If someone is biracial and choose to flawn their blackness that will stand out. I just believe these women choose to use their blackness and be proud of it. being biracial can cause someone to not be accept on either side. now do we support hate on that level. I see these ladies as my black sisters. when our ancestors were raped by the master and forced to have biracial kids, they still were treated like the field workers even tho they cleaned the house. do your research honey. and lets not teach hate against each other. im not knocking you because you are my sister and i will always want to rise and not sink but i just had to school like some of these other women in the comments. my people is my people. half or full.
Rachel RAE I totally agree with you because now of these days you really can’t tell how much white a person has in them unless you do a dna test. My great grandfather is white. All this post is doing is dividing us even more
Thank you Paris for making this video, I was saying the same things, I get tired of sisters gravitating towards these mixed women, when they don't consider themselves BLACK, these people doesn't even like being around black people.
Meghan Markle is a great example!
polofunk
That has little to do with it. This has nothing to do with who they "gravitate" to. Even if they gravitate to black people they're still not black and it causes issues for black representation. How do some people still not get this? It sounds like you still want mixed people to classified as black. The problem is calling people something they're not. It replaces black progress with mixed progress and contributes to the whitening of the black race, introducing more white genetics into the black race. And then you have people counting whites genetics and feature as = black.
@Curtis Majors
False. Mixed people gravitate to black people more than white people. But why does it even matter? Why do you negros want mixed people to love you so much anyways? If mixed people aren't in black spaces that's a good thing. That's the whole point of this video, not confusing mixed people with black people. Mixed people in black spaces is why they get classified as "black" and you have "black" beauty pageants that aren't black. Do you guys think about what you're saying? Cause you're not expressing the things that'll help black people and don't seem to get the point of this video. It sounds like you want mixed people to say they're black.....
@@Scoring57 dude you miss understand what I said, I never said I wanted mixed people to be black, you're crazy as hell if a dam race war break out, they're more likely to join their white side than black side.
WoW man she took them down.
I love your channel you go real deep calling out whats wrong with this society.
After watching this video, I remembered a time when I participated in a Barbizon contest a few years ago. I nailed everything they wanted us to do; walking on the runway, reciting a commercial, being polite to others. They did their reward ceremony for those who had the most call backs,; I only ended up receiving two while others received 10+. I was so heartbroken about it, I always thought what I did wrong and what I could’ve done better. When I really thought about it, it was because how I had my 4 type hair blown out in an Afro. The girls they had on stage getting their rewards either had loose curls or straight hair. I keep thinking about it and it sickens me.
That’s terrible. I think if you were your younger self self now doing the contests with your Afro, you’d get some call backs (whatever those are! I was never pretty enough or tall enough to be a model 😊)
Speaking of barbizon they are not really for the talents they scam me and my other out of money and it’s pitiful what they done.
how you gonna mention other light skinned black women who clearly could pass as biracial. There are some people who have two black parents but are light skinned like a biracial person. for example, You mentioned beyonce. But isn't her mom like half white or something??? lol. so... what makes her different from a biracial woman.
This is what I was wondering because I have a biracial parent that is black/white and a black parent. But according to people on here I would be a mixed black person. It’s confusing to me would I be mixed if I have direct white Ancestry from one of my parents?
Old comment but the difference is that Beyonce's predominantly black. That's not the same as someone who is only half or less than half black. 50% or less black should not say that they are black
@@Loekki There are many people like you. Nicki Minaj and Rihanna are like that too. One of my grandmothers was probably like that too. We have no issue with ppl like you identifying as black since you're predominantly black with only a small percentage white. But it is weird when people who are only 50% or less black to claim black.
hoooooooooooweee they wasn't ready fo this one! Can y'all hear the hit dogs a hollerin?! cause I can! I agreed with every damn thing
True, too many people who dont identify black or who are mixed race or biracial are using benefits and set asides meant for black people. Identifying as #ADOS or #FBA is helping to clarify some of what you are speaking..
moni love what’s FBA sis?
@@tinasad3 Foundational Black Americans.. Meaning the black people whose lineage is from here and who did immigrate from somewhere else
5 dollar black women?✌
Exactly
Precisely. Hit it dead on the head.
*Million dollar mixed queens. But America is sooooo colorist according to y'all (it is but don't perpetuate it further), y'all are so quick to point the gun back the other way
@@FoxyChariot Not pointing fingers, just claiming Legacy and not a color. Hopefully this makes it clear to you ✌🏼
I am mixed. The day I identify as a black woman will be the day Jack Frost and Lucifer meet up for a cup of eggnog. #fuckuronedroprule
@Becky Johnson I'm actually blasian. Being mixed isn't limited to being half white. See what happens when you assume.😂😂😂
Sis but be happy for them.
Paris I know this is unrelated to this video, but what do you think of the ballerina Misty Copeland? She is mixed race but is being praised for being the first black principle dancer with american ballet theater and I see her everywhere representing black women. She really doesn't look black at all to me and occasionally will post about how hard it was being a biracial person and how she relates to Mariah Carey by not being accepted because of being biracial. But then yet she claims she has had all the struggles because she is a black woman and is proud to be a black woman.. confused on that one and wanted to bring it to your attention as it relates to this same topic.
@@LM-ml6gm I see it too and agree with u 💯 she is one if those biracial people who can almost pass for another race, so the fact that she is getting so much media attention by using the race card is sick! Then she contradicts herself by talking about how hard life was for her as a biracial woman who didnt fit in, and how Mariah Carey is her idol blah blah blah and how she is proud of being a BIRACIAL WOMAN. After that comment she had all these biracial people thanking her for finally acknowledging the fact that she is biracial and not only just black!
Also jordyn Woods is biracial. On life of kylie her mom is white and dad was a black biker dude. (don't know why I was watching that foolishness. Don't worry she ain't getting my money I watched it illegally 🤣)
S O jordyns mom is a white passing biracial
@@kelthevixen So you could say she's Mixed-Black, mixed being her race and Black being the culture or group she identifies with.
"I thought this was the most appropriate time for ALL OF US to re-read, remember and NEVER FORGET, the speech given by Willie Lynch a slave owner who over 300 years ago devised a plan to help keep Black people divided...
Gentlemen:
I greet you here on the bank of the James River in the year of our lord, one thousand seven hundred and twelve. First , I shall thank you, the gentlemen of the of the colony of Virginia, for bringing me here. I am here to help you solve some of your problems with slaves. Your invitation reached me in my modest plantation in the West Indies where I have experimented with some of the newest and still the oldest method for control of slaves. Ancient Rome would envy us if my program is implemented. As our boat sailed south on the James River, named for our illustrious KING JAMES, whose BIBLE we CHERISH, I saw enough to know that our problem is not unique. While Rome used cords or wood as crosses for standing human bodies along the old highways in great numbers, you are here using the tree and the rope on occasion.
I caught the whiff of a dead slave hanging from a tree a couple of miles back. You are losing valuable stock by hangings, you are having uprisings, slaves are running away, your crops are sometimes left in the fields too long for maximum profit, you suffer occasional fires, your animals are killed, Gentleman,...You know what your problems are; I do not need to elaborate. I am not here to enumerate your problems, I am here to introduce you to a method of solving them.
In my bag, I have a fool proof method for controlling your slaves. I guarantee everyone of you that if installed it will control the slaves for at least three hundred years. My method is simple, any member of your family or any OVERSEER can use it.
I have outlined a number of differences among the slaves, and I take these differences and make them bigger. I use FEAR, DISTRUST, and ENVY for control purposes. These methods have worked on my modest plantation in the West Indies, and it will work throughout the SOUTH. Take this simple little list of differences and think about them. On the top of my list is "AGE" but it is only there because it starts with an "A"; The second is"COLOR" or shade; there is INTELLIGENCE, SIZE, SEX, SIZE OF PLANTATION, ATTITUDE of owner, whether the slaves live in the valley, on a hill, east or west, north, south, have fine or coarse hair, or is tall or short. Now that you have a list of differences, I shall give you an outline of action- but before that, I shall assure you that DISTRUST IS STRONGER THAN TRUST, AND ENVY IS STRONGER THAN ADULATION, RESPECT OR ADMIRATION.
The black slave, after receiving this indoctrination, shall carry on and will become self-refueling and self-generating for hundreds of years, maybe thousands.
Don't forget you must pitch the old black VS. the young black males, and the young black male against the old black male. You must use the dark skinned slaves VS. the light skin slaves. You must use the female VS the male, and the male VS, the female. You must always have your servants and OVERSEERS distrust all blacks, but it is necessary that your slaves trust and depend on us.
Gentlemen, these kits are your keys to control, use them. Never miss an opportunity. My plan is guaranteed, and the good thing about this plan is that if used intensely for one year the slave will remain perpetually distrustful.
-WILLIAM LYNCH-1772
The letter above is one of the major problems of the African-American race today. And with this knowledge we as a race can and will over come. So with this letter still in your mind I ask that you enlighten someone else and send this letter to as many brothers and sisters. We as a race must start somewhere in learning our problems what better place than the document that started the destruction of our MOST POWERFUL RACE!!!
Who are you to say that these women aren’t black ?????
She's an actual black woman, wtf 🙄
If both parent are not Black you are not Black simple
etherealunovaflygirl their genotype would be mostly black so they’re black!!
You need a bigger platform..... you speak facts and truth in every video and I need every single human to hear you...
I am a BLACK woman and proud of it in every way! When someone bi racial is called black I understand them wanting to be called bi racial and I am not triggered I think that is okay for them to represent being bi racial. At the end of the day they will never understand my struggle in this world and I will never understand theirs. Bi Racials can chose who they want to be and everyday no matter what I am the reflection of the Black-African American Culture wether I choose to be or not. I love being a black women and their is a difference. Be proud of who you are at the end of the day we all should be and to all my African American Black women, we are enough, we are smart beautiful and intelligent. Please stop thinking that we need to be anything other than we are to be beautiful, we do not have to be mixed with anything to love ourselves and support and love other women that are other races as well. At the end of the day LOVE YOURSELF!!!!!!!
All FACTS! Thanks
SPEAK ON IT PARIS, BECAUSE WHERE I'M FROM U BE ABOUT 2 FIGHT THESE BI-RACIAL CHICKS, TELLING U THEIR BLACKER THAN U, BUT HAVE A W/ MAMA/ W/DADDY
I was waiting for commentary on this bs. Thank you Paris.

You look mixed from a distance, just so you know. At least in your profile pic. Some people might point that out
@@Scoring57 that doesn't change that: if u have one non black parent, u r not black and have no business representing blacks. Blacks have to have standards. She's a mixed person and it's ok. We shouldn't participate in our own erasure and that is ok. I have 2 black parents, and just like black babies, up close it is very clear that I'm phenotypically black. I'm not ok with constantly being represented in all media by mixed people. I'm sick of it.
Honestly I can't tell when people are mixed or black unless a mixed girl is my color or my friends color. Like you'll have to be my color, the color of two of my mixed friends or white passing for me to automatically know you're mixed. So I legit thought these girls were black, I keep my darkness down on my phone too so that probably contributed too lol.
Well you must think Obama, tiger Woods and chili are all melinated with two parents of African descent.
THANK you! You are so on point with this!
What can I do? I cant win here.
I'm darker than you and my hair has this contestants texture! I will say regardless of hair texture lighter shade women have certain priviledges with darker skinned men imo.
And thank you Paris for clearing the air about the difference between a light skinned black women and a mixed face women our people are too confused smh 🤦🏽♀️
Everyone wants to be a “black woman”
Until it’s actually time to be a black woman.
I can't with that Ike Turner image LMAO!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!! I was waiting for someone to speak about this!
Liked before watching💫lets listen to the truth.
I'm not hip to this whole pageant , beauty stuff so I wasn't paying any attention to it . I do remember a woman who wore a yellowish neon dress for Jamaica universe and she definitely would be #BlackGirlMagic she looked beautiful .

Girl why are you so obsessed with hair texture ? Who are you do be out here telling people what’s black and what’s not? I have 100% african (Burundi) friends with deep dark skin and 3c hair . I myself am malawian and lightskinned with 3c hair. I’m not mixed neither are my parents. Stop trying devide us ffs
The chocolate 🍫 sis MS. Franklin, is amazing. I watched her srory.
Let us remember all the women (and men) who are of mixed ancestry. Shall I say Eartha Kitt!!! So let's not bring shade to my mixed tribe. Just because more none Black women since the 1960's America are having and keeping their babies by Black men dont lessen their way in the world. Let them represent and give them love too... I dont hear anything negative about the mixed men everyone loves like Shamar Moore.
I don't think anyone is shading them. The point is they deserve to represent themselves, not black women. So they need be 100% true to their identity and black folks and the media need to stop calling them black instead of black *and* whatever they're mixed with. All of it needs to be acknowledged, not just half.
@@Sunkissed_Michelle What do you mean?
That's the first thing I thought when I saw this on Instagram. I'm glad you made a video on it
It’s so funny to me that we’re to black to be white, and to white to be black. But when we own our mixed culture people are mad like we’re glorifying being more then just black. Like when black ppl are quick to claim being part Native American. But when we go with the whole I’m proud to mixed people get all up in arms like with the mixed-ish show coming out. You just can’t make everyone happy so to darn bad y’all are just gonna have to stay mad I’ll just be black and proud 😂🤣
I seen those posts and thought the same thing!! There was definitely a kink deficit!! I need a lil more black in the magic!!!😒
