Question for BLACK PEOPLE...??

Question

THIS IS LONG SO IF YOU'RE NOT MATURE ENOUGH TO READ IT, THEN DON'T BOTHER ANSWERING.

I'm a 16 year old African American female. I was raised in a predominantly white neighborhood. I got a lot of racism growing up and I think for a little while I would just try to act like the white kids so I could have friends. I'm a junior in high school now and there's so much more diversity. I've had people tell me that I talk white. whatever. I'm not being fake and acting like something I'm not to fit in (I've been down that route and look what it's gotten me into) and I shouldn't have to. I hate it how some black people will change the way they talk around me to 'make me feel more comfortable'. I know what they're doing, I am black. sometimes I feel like I get racism from both sides. my older sister who isn't sheltered like me (she grew up in Japan and Texas and hung out with mostly black people) explained that some black people talk in a different dialect when they're together because of a bond they have. Do I have to change the way I talk to be apart of that bond? I've had black friends but I've never been apart of a group of close black people. I really want that closeness. I don't really have any friends right now and that's something I want to change with some other things.

Do I have to change the way I talk to be apart of that strong bond that some black people have?

Is this a culture-where you're raised type of thing?

How do you see this whole thing from and outsider's point of view?

Answer 1

I'm black & I think no matter what ethnic group you're part of, I don't think it's possible to connect well with black people at least not on a social level. They're just too selfish, conceited & ignorant & for the most part they can't be trusted. They'll never accept each other for who they are. You're better off trying to have a social connection outside of black people. If you do find good ones, hopefully they will accept you 7 you can connect with them, but I wouldn't count on it. Most of the good blacks are either dead, silenced, beaten, spat at or converted as you said by these monsters.
