I will start off by saying I am a mixed girl and I have lived in both predominantly white and predominantly black areas. So I’ve pretty much seen it all. I know how hard it is for black people, Hispanics as well as mixed people. For so long of my life, I sided with minorities ofcourse because those are my people after all but I’m so upset because it’s coming to a point where I can’t do that anymore. I can’t side with them anymore. In the beginning of the Embracing Black People movement, it was all different types of black people as well as whoever were the allies. Now, black people are the ones who are doing the most discrimination. White people arent allowed anymore. Hispanics aren’t allowed anymore. Light skins aren’t allowed anymore. And biracial people aren’t allowed anymore unless we agree with the dark complexioned people on everything which is not realistic and sometimes, is taken too far. I feel bad that I can’t side with my people anymore, but I just can’t. I hate being called “privileged” because I’m pretty sure privileged people don’t live in neighborhoods like mine, get dirty looks from white people and get called “nigger” although I’m clearly mixed. What a lot of black people don’t get though is that , white racists don’t care. They don’t care if you’re a light white pale bright , if you’re black or have a drop of black in you, then you’re a N-word. So all the extra discrimination is, actually, in fact, coming from black people and I’m sick of it. And every time I try to point it out like “why can’t all black people get along at least for the sake of our freedom” my “Privilege iS sTaRtiNg tO sHoW” 🙄

Like privilege where? If you see it, can you please hand it to me because I’d love to have it. Im so sick of it and it hurts being rejected by your own people because of your skin colour and your parents’ choice AKA THINGS WE CANNOT CONTROL. Thought that was one of the points of black acceptance but I guess not anymore.
