    "obsessed" is the wrong word, there is a clear history there that you're being ignorant to.

    I lowkey feel like the reason why they want to be called "coloured" instead of Black is because around the world Black people get treated poorly or are looked at negatively, and they don't want to be associated with it.

    While yes I can understand why those people want to make the distinction that they are mixed, it just makes me look at the dynamics surrounding colorism and s*** like that.

    ok i get you but its different here, it was white created classification but the people kept it not because of colorism there are dark skinned coloureds too but due to culture and heritage.

    Like there is already a 50 pages thread on LSA about this girl ethnicity and it seems like this thread is headed to do the same numbers too. There is defintely some contexts where race need to be brought up, but in cases like this it's just people harassing, stalking and obsessing over someone ethnical background like it's a matter of life and death.

    Then she should stop performing on American tv shows and trying to push her song on American radio

    Or how about ppl take the time and learn about her beliefs and what struggles ppl similar to her have suffered in her country. & vice versa ! Those who condemn what they do not understand are, surely, little ppl.

    yeah i would say ppl who say she's "dismissing her blackness" are pretty dumb

    cause i would assume that word has a different connotation/history in africa

    I think it's because many Black groups will like to take part in or claim aspects of Black culture that are genuinely specific/historical to Black Americans, but then at the same time shame those cultural aspects or talk down to Black Americans.

    I've seen it on both sides being Black American and Trini. S*** is dumb af to me forreal. Just some goofy diaspora wars s*** when if you put a Caribbean nigga, African nigga, and American nigga all right next to each other we gonna call em Black.

    i dont know anything about this

    but regarding America what i do know - what south Africa dictates on African people when knowing sa history of colonization, work slavery & segregation that still has issues to this day does not go well over here

    also how certain people of Africa disown and disrespect black Americans and even black Europeans is also where the issues come from

    from the perspective outside of Africa and how its cluster f*** of issues

    and black Americans specifically with how the transatlantic slavery has tried and in many ways taken away the African identity to where most dont even know where they originate which was on purpose by their slavers and some enemy tribes that participated in selling

    Black Americans and Americans in general focus on our country and what we have going on. It’s you other countries that always stay with our d***s in your mouths
