Are there any black people on NS?

Postby Vici Minerva » Tue Apr 12, 2011 8:10 pm

There are numerous threads and etc about if there are any women on NS, and obviously the answer is yes. But to be honest, I'm not quite sure if there are black people on NS. I'm not trying to be offensive... I'm just doing a survey about it. I am aware of Middle-Eastern, Asian, European, and a number of other races on NS (one of which I belong to but I'll never reveal which).

Anyway, to sum this up: ARE THERE ANY BLACK PEOPLE AFRICAN AMERICAN PEOPLE ON NS?
(Further note that I'm in no way trying to be racist or offensive.)

I may be wrong, but I believe black people is the pc term nowadays.

Oh, and 1/64th black. Sorta counts, I guess.

You should call them anything but African American unless they are from Africa.

I'm pretty sure, to be honest, that there aren't any blacks on NS not from America.

But Blacks is probably correct, if you're looking at that skin color. I'm not sure, I'm in Australia, where apparently our culture is insanely lax compared to everyone else (we use niggah as a term of affection, I have a black friend who refers to himself incessantly as a niggah).

As a Sri Lankan, I'm uptight about people calling me Indian, or saying Asians and referring to JUST Japan/China etc. So if you say African, mean African (From South Africa, or Egypt, or Kenya, or whatever, regardless of skin color).

Otherwise, just say Blacks.

Yeah, that's what I call black people (in real life). No one corrected me so far.

Does 1/128th count too? I think we are legally black in at least one state according to Jim Crow laws.

According to the one-drop rule, we're both technically mulattoes.

Weird.

I didn't realize there were black people in Belgium at all ;)

Most are Baptists and such wherever I've been around long enough to notice.

I'm black, born in South Africa, moved to Miami with my mother and bros when I was a baby. Sometimes I joke with others about how I'm more African-American than they are. All in good fun though. :p
NOTE: This nation is NO LONGER called Southern United Africa as of May 2010. It is now known as the Federal Republic of South Africa.
