"the one drop rule is actually an isnsult to black people

its like whatever cant be sorted out into the other races we can chuck it into the black box under the one drop rule."

this is so true and not just biracials
black people are expected to accept all "misfits" that aren't accepted by their group or don't quite fit in anywhere else.
except gay folks.lol

The days of black people having to accept the people whites rejected are almost gone. Barack Obama has walk the walk of a black man and even he didn't get the black vote easy. Some black people don't realise the power they have. Its what MLK and others fought for years ago. This has alot to do with history. When whites go to South Africa they know the culture and history there is between black Africans[the indigenous] and whites. Despite there being a coloured /mixed race culture and group. In most of the Americas and some of Europe the black culture is almost more important to the country than anything else. If you asked a Brazilian to send home a black brazilian to Africa he would point out what blacks have brought to Brazil as a melting pot. As racist as some white in that country might be. When you are the original and creator of certain things its hard for people to ignore you . The fact is this world is a selfish place and every group is more concerned with their own. Black African people are a little bit more diverse than others. Africa has the widest range of skin colours of any contient, there are different looks from Ethiopia to Ghana.
