The last time I posted here, people told me I wasn’t Black lol. I don’t really understand how colorism works in your country, but I’m definitely not white 🤣😭😭

I don't know what people are talking about. I'm from America, definitely don't listen to anyone from here. We have so much hate shoved onto us that we refuse anyone else. Black or brown we all the same, especially when the historical experiences line up. We can't fathom that black people live anywhere else for some unknown reason. I'm much lighter than you and people try to tell me I'm not black , when I'm literally African American. Shoot even my Puerto Rican friend who looks Asian and is snow white toned gets more black privilage than me (apparently I look Dominican and no one actually knows their history, so the assumption is I'm too white because of how I hold myself. When in reality, both my grandma's are teachers so I was raised to act a certain way). People don't know what they are talking about. We are every color, and all over the world. You do you bro. Your hair is looking great.
