I'm a mixed race individual

With that said I know what it is like when my Mexican cousins call me their gringo cousin and my white family refers to me as their Mexican cousin.

I feel bad for this girl, she is who she is,nothing will change that for them to say that is as much an attack on her as the system.

I reserve judgment on whether I approve her skin color until after I see the swimsuit competition pictures.

I'm not exactly the most conservative but why have a black only beauty pageant? A whites only one would catch some shi*. Beauty pageants are stupid anyway, especially those little kid ones.

People don't want us to judge transgender people, but they want us to judge how "black" someone is?

Liberals are so confusing.

Of all the wide, wonderfully awful pantheon of racial superfluous poppycock people get hung up on, the light skin/dark skin brouhaha among black people HAS to be the worst.

Black only? Even my liberal ass can see that is racist. All hell would break loose if it was white only

They probably started for the same reason as black colleges, because they weren't included in the white versions so they started their own. It's not racism anyway; you should look up that word in the dictionary so you know how to use it.

One article on this I saw said she talked about her mixed race background during the pageant and then showed a tweet where someone complained about selecting someone who didn't "identify as black".

This one has the comment about her not having to deal with being black. The beauty pageant has "how much discrimination did you face" as a criteria? My guess is that actually ask something along those lines in the Q/A portion, and she talked about her mixed race background and how she doesn't really fit in as either white or black.


Labeling her "not black enough" and believing she didn't face any of the discrimination that blacks face is itself an acknowledgment of a belief that whites are more tolerant of light skinned blacks than blacks are.

not sure what you are going for here.

noun prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

Clearly a black only beauty pageant excludes and therefor discriminates against someone of a different race. Are you saying that the discrimination is not based on a belief of superiority and therefor it isn't racism?

So let me get this straight....A black woman can win a "regular" beauty pageant (Miss America, Miss USA, Miss Universe) and an all black beauty pageant. What happened to minorities calling for a fair chance?

"But you know, when I look at these contestants! For the Miss Black Awareness Pageant, I feel good! I feel good, because I know there's a God somewhere! There's a God somewhere! Turn around ladies for me please! You know there's a God who sits on high and looks down low! Man cannot make it like this! Larry Flynt! Hugh Hefner! They can take the picture, but you can't make it! Only God above, the Hugh Hefner on high, can make it for ya!"

Obama got the goofy black guy look because of his white half, and the athleticism of Erkel.
