Colorism, BLM, George Floyd protest, Denver, hypocrisy

1996-2020 SSDD
First five minutes at the BLM protest for George Floyd I said hello to these two mixed race women and I was confronted by the metizo woman for culturally appropriating dreads.
She said my dreads look bad on me, I asked her if she knew she was fat and mestizo and not black at all?
I attempted to explain to her and the black(?) woman she was with that I am a Black Man, a quadroon (25% African) same as Damien Marley. They both said I was not and if I was, I was acting white.
As you can see in the video the Black Waman is a mulatto and the Mexican woman a mestizo. Both being mixed race,
So in one minute I went from cultural appropriation to passing as white, even though I disclosed my race (Blue Vein Quadroon)
Easy to hate, from the judgment of being one type of enemy to the polar opposite enemy but still only an enemy to be had. Takes me back to high school in Virginia.
This is; divisionism, colorism, coonism, and samboism expectations of all light skinned people.
And It is 100% the Black womans responsibility to support any and all Black people who are, and openly identify as, Black. And to stand up for all POC especially Black Men of any shade, color, admixture.

What the black woman says toward the end is that she doesn't know me
"WE DONT KNOW YOU" she proclaims, basically saying there is no respect to be had for me a living victim of multiple hate crimes and police brutality. I believe, by probability, neither of them knew George Floyd personally. Sadly, when given a opportunity to meet someone with a unique first hand experience in the Black community that seems to be taboo to speak of today.

This phenomenon has occurred though out the last 25years of my life.
My first taste of Eugenics was flavored Black. As in I am "not black enough to date black woman"
This idea that quadroons, octoroons and the short are a lesser form of black is not only disrespectful to the living ones but also all our ancestor who were raped by white men and had their children stolen and sold off as sex slave, concubines, and placages / placees.

All of this neglects to address the one drop rule and the whitest negros during slaveries 18+ generations.

People like Sally Hemming, also a quadroon, also Martha Jefferson's half sister, who was raped by Thomas Jefferson and impregnated at 13 yo by Jefferson 43 yo, whos offspring were octoroons were still held in bondage on Jefferson plantation until his death.


Black is Caste not defined by Color.
