I hate that BITCH so much. How dare she try to claim black. What a CUNT! Did anyone see the Essence magazine with her on the cover. Who is Essence going to put on the cover next Paris Hilton?

How can you constantly tell black folks to stop raggin on each other, and then turn around and disparage Mariah who has a black father and who apparently identifies with her black side??? Just cuz she is the worst-dresssed cow in show biz doesn't mean you have to try and expel her from the race.

And you are also a male chauvinist pig for calling any woman a cunt. Nobody could ever accuse you of being consistent in the stands you take.

If you think Mariah Carey is black my sista you got alot of research to do. Mariah Carey is black for now, Yes! But as in a Barbara Walters interview in 1991 she was anything but. You are just like the millions of other black ppl in this country who see her as a credit to our race because she has non-negroid features. Shame on Her!!

Biologically if Mariah has a black father she can claim her blackness as much as Hallie can. This is 2006 not 1991, and Mariah seems to have come along way since then.

Biologically Mariah Carey's father is 1/3 black.

The girl is white.

I certainly am not a midwest soccer mom and what does that have to do with anything? Who says Mariah's father is 1/3 black? Even is he is, that still makes her mixed and, of course, we should now settle in for a lecture from that well-known authority on mixed people, presently going under the name of - "prettybabygirl". zzzzzzzzzzz Pardon me while I bail out on this tired subject.

That's interesting. So, a WHITE LOOKING person can claim to be black if their father is 1/3 black.

But a non-white looking person with 2 black parents is should claim to be mixed if she's light skinned?

This country is getting more confusing by the minute.

As far as I'm concerned, anybody who wants to claim their blackness can do so. Especially since the 25-million strong black community has never elected a great grand arbitrator who is empowered to say who is and who isn't black.

****************Especially since the 25-million strong black community has never elected a great grand arbitrator who is empowered to say who is and who isn't black.**********************

That's exactly what we need because we can't keep allowing ANYBODY to claim black when/cuz they want to. The only people who should determine who's black is us. People like me are making up their minds everyday and if that continues (which it will cuz the shit's hit the fan and the wheel's in motion) we'll be getting blacker by the day.

I have to agree with Cynique on this one. In America, Black people have varying skin tones. It has always been that way and will always be that way.

Skin tone doesn't vary among African-Americans as much as it has been reported. That's a distortion. THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF AFRICAN-AMERICANS ARE DARK-SKINNED. Don't let the television images and the greedy, self-interested rhetoric of our leaders fool you...

The majority of "black" Americans are varying shades of brown. And there are millions of brown-skinned-Americans who don't consider themselve "dark." As we have previously discussed, it is always about "light" as compared to what. It is these subtleties that will bring your authethic movment to a standstill. And I'd be willing to bet that if you'd got on a commuter train full of a broad cross section of "Black Americans" and ask them if they think "yellow" people should be kicked out of the race, the majority of them would look at you like you were crazy and say "no".

Question (not a criticism): What is there about Mariah Carey's life and history (other than her 1/3 Black father) that represents Black people in general and Black women in particular?

Are you guys aware that although the vocal minority want to oust light people from the race, there are still great numbers of blacks who want to claim mixed people as there own. They feel like these people shouldn't be trying to deny that they have black blood. This is especially true in the cases of people like Tiger Woods. Mariah seems to be the favorite target of the anti-mixed crowd. That's why the focus is always on her.

Let us face facts--the way things are nobody will claim to be black in this culture who is not--you can be 1000th black and that will do it--maybe it don't pass our test but we ain't really the ones putting the labels on.

Sistagal has had a rough time over on the other side of the line and she jumped back. She will jump back over whenever that becomes convenient--as would most black people I'm afraid.

Last time I looked in America 99 times out of a hundred being black ain't all that great shakes--they did this survey where they asked white people if they thought black people had an advantage. A lot of them said yes.

Then they asked them if they could be black if they wanted--nobody said yes.

For all Oprah's money, wouldn't none of them want it if they had to be black and that's the bottom line.

Tonya:

The only browner one can get than brown, NOT BEIGE, the actual color brown.. is literally black. These millions of brown-skinned Americans are DARK compared to light and white and other non-black people. The ONLY people who are darker ARE COAL BLACK PEOPLE. Thus, describing them as dark-skinned is more than accurate. But keep on manipulating the facts to propagate you're zany, outlandish arguement. frivolous . But understood.

Anybody courageous enough to want to be black should not be denied the opportunity to bond with their black side. Super star Mariah is a cash cow for all of the black artists who collaborate on her best-selling albums.

Tonya:

Nah-uhhh Cynnique.... At first black people WERE actually offended. But now that that offensiveness has turned into RESENTMENT.. they're telling (people like) Tiger Woods and Mariah Carey to kiss their BLACK ass.

I don't know where you've been...

No. They focus on her because she's the poster child for why people like her MUST GO. (And god bless her soul; lord knows she's done us a HUGE favor.)

The problem with you and your posse, Tonya, is that you invest your credibility in contrived little arguments and when people don't respond the way you want them to you get frustrated. You are so one-dimensional that you can't perceive that in the flux of the human condition, the truth is fluid and your truth is not my truth. So you curl up into a fetal position and whine about a personal attack. I have a Zen mentality; I give you the words but I take the spaces between the words. There a lot of people I agree with but you are rarely one of them because you have an axe to grind and you want the head of people like me on the chopping block.

Another thing, Tonya, you always want to imply that I'm out of it. But one thing I can say about myself is that I am surrounded by diversity. You, on the other hand, seem to insulate yourself with like-minded people who reinforce each other's views. You and your cook-cutter crowd are convinced that your plans to purge the race are making headway, but your dreams will drown in the in the pitfall of logistics and becomes just a ripple in the mainstream.

No, the problem with you, Cynnique, is that you have NOTHING (on topic) left to say. And everyone KNOWS how you are when you CAN'T finish a topic: you bait people into boorish, inane spectacles.... Thus my reasoning for making THIS my last point.

Well, Metasmith I guess I am just a hateful and wack person. Plus, I can give two shits about Mariah"I wanna be black when convenient" Carey. Her and Jennifer Lopez have made careers off of COLORSTRUCK black men only to spit on them hen they reached the top.

I'm sure Mariah is crying her eyes out over the fact that a nonentity like you doesn't like her, serenasailor. Wasting your energy on hating her will diminish you, not her.

This is in response to the topic in general:

Okay ,IMO, I've seen some black people condemn
her by saying " she's black but she thinks she's
a white girl!",while other black people curse her for claiming black when they believe she really isn't. And I'm sure it's not any easier for her when she has to deal with whites. Meanwhile many whites I've known had no clue that she even had black blood to begin with! I think she's just a victim of this "one-drop" chaos. If she could just simply indentify as "mixed" she wouldn't have all this.

African americans need to get together and make
up our minds: she either belongs to us or she
doesn't. She's a human being, and we can't keep
playig tug-o war with her like this.

(She's a human being... we can't keep playig tug-o war with her like this.)

Bullshit, Roxie!!

You think she doesn't know what she's doing...? If anything, she's using us. Like most of the people on this thread have stated, she's black when it's convenient and white when whites are accepting her. When she first came out, she played the sweet, innocent, pure white girl and did everything but associated herself with blacks. But when she wanted to "break loose" and be herself, whites (along with her "racist" husband) kicked her ass to the curb. That's when she decided it's time to be semi-black; and she's been playing the fields ever since.... I wish we'd stop putting other people's feeling before our own - namely, po' little crocodile teared white girls - especially when they're making utter fools out of the most self-loathing, color-struck ones among us, read: the real victims....

The "black when convenient" tactic is a survival tactic when one's stuck between the color line. Something We don't have to deal with, people always know what we are. But what else can she do when she's damned either way? No of this would happen if Carey were identified as white as she would be outside the US.

As far back as 1990, I heard black people saying "she one of us you know, but she hidin' it." And i'm sure the message reached Carey. If only some of those black people weren't pressuring her to claim them she wouldn't be in this mess.

My credit card debt is soaring and my last gas bill was $502.00. Pardon me if I can't squeeze out any tears for that yo-yo Mariah. She'a good subject for debate but she is luxuriating in a life of fame and fortune and there will always be somebody to embrace her. I will not be losing any sleep over the trials and tribulations of millionaire jocks and rappers and high maintenance divas

Tonya:
"Moonsigns...how will we lose?"


MOONSIGNS:
In America (especially) and many places abroad, many Black families are made up of people with varying skin-tones. You'd "lose" because your "plan" would divide such families based on color, which many (if not most), would not even entertain the concept much less carry the "plan" out. The entire concept is absolutely absurd.



MOONSIGNS:
"It's has always been that way." (regarding varying skin tones)


Tonya:
"Nooooooo it HAS NOT."



MOONSIGNS:
As we have known it, it has always been this way.

Why would anyone debate this racist mindless drivel? How can you allow yourself to be sucked into a divisive ten brain cell argument about “light vs. brown vs. dark”? Who gives a damn what Mariah Carey is or claims to be? WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT? Why do you care what her skin color is or what race her parents are? AGAIN, WHY IN THE HELL IS IT IMPORTANT?? AND WHY DO YOU CARE??? Stating that you "hate" a woman and calling her a "cunt", someone you have never met nor has she done anything personally to you, speaks more about the writer than the woman. Such shallow immature vitriolic ranting belongs in gasoline station men’s toilet stalls along with the other mindless graffiti rather than a board that is supposed to be informative and enlightening.

the real problem is that black people feel like if you have one drop of black blood in you then you shouldn't claim any other race than black... another problem is that we include white people into our race and i don't like it... all that interracial stuff is cool with me cuz i could care less, but when i see people say to a white person something like "you white on the outside but u black on the inside" or "u a black girl trapped in a white girl's body" stuff like that irks me. and we wonder why so many white people aren't afraid to use the word nigga around "US" and their people as well all the time... As far as Mariah goes... she has black blood in her... she is partly black, which means part of her heritage and culture lies with us. don't shove her out because she's lighter then the norm... if that's the case, let's kick those albinos that you only seem to see on Maury out of th race to... I know I haven't seen one contribute to building up the race yet...

I know this might appear to be a strange question: But would we be as concerned about and offend by Serenasailor calling a male Mariah Carey a dick?

No, because calling men crude names apparently rolls off their backs. You, yourself, may not mind being called a "dick" but wouldn't you be offended if a female member of your family was called a "cunt?"
