It still goes on. My second son looks "just about white" and was harranged by students last year at his college, students of the white variety btw, about having his hair braded, blah blah. Of course he told them to Go f*** themselves, but it went on for a couple of months. They are just thickos. He is mixed race, his Mum is black and they are whiteys fighting someone else's fight with no idea what they are on about or fighting for!
That is just weird. My nephew is mixed race and just about the most popular kid in Bitterne Park! I guess it depends where you are. I think he does his hair differently every week, by the way. Even seen him with the dreaded cornrows of cultural appropriation fame
I have a Washington Redskins t-shirt, with the Indian head logo, which has been cancelled by the club, who are no longer called the Redskins due to sensitivity to cultural appropriation issues. My mixed race American friend complimented me on it. She's mostly Mexican heritage, rather Mohican or whatever. But I think most people actually ignore that ****.
Well when I said Braids it is more cornrows with Braids hanging from the back and sides. I'm not that wired into the terminology of traditionally black hair styling. Looks a mess when it isn;t done like that though because mixed he has neither afro hair nor whitey hair so it it just a big frizz. lol
Lol. I am actually much more patient and very non confrontational face to face. autism for me is much more a case of avoiding people, avoiding conversation with anyone I am not very comfortable and back down on any argument so I can walk away and get on with my life. lol
These ICE videos coming out of the US are really distressing. Kids dragged from their homes in the middle of the night. Women pulled out of their cars. A pastor getting shot in the face with a rubber bullet. How anyone can think Trump isn’t a fascist, I have no idea.
They had better hope the Democrats do not get in next time as I think some people un thr currently administration might end up doing a stretch in 6 or 7 years time. Trump will be long gone by them even if he doesn't fall down the stairs.
I actually think it is time for the US to get rid of life peerages for the Supreme Court. This partisan top body is undermining the integrity of the constitution. Not sure what the best answer is though. Everything in the US is bitter rivalry.
