Can you explain to me how that's done? What's the difference between how blacks live and how whites live? For people who almost constantly say they want to be treated in an equal manner why would some go on to differentiate between the two?

Rachel Dolezal was on Today this morning and she said for all intent & purposes she lives black and I want to know what that means.

That could mean a ton of stuff the black experience is deep and never-ending much like todays social services beaurocracy.

Sounds as if she is living the life she wants, not the one she IS. I remember when this all hit, they were comparing it to folks who are transgender..feeling she was born into the wrong body. In her case, she was born into the wrong race, and more identifies with being black than white.
The liberal, compassionate part of me can see the point. BUT, trans people do not deny they were born into a particular gender, seems she was denying she was born white. WTF

People are such marshmallows today.

Falling down black is clearly more complicated.

What is difference between how Blacks and Whites live? The obvious one is their are more poor Blacks, especially in the large inner cities..less education, less job opportunities , so more blacks turn to selling drugs and other crimes, or go into professional sports.....
If you left your house tomorrow and went around doing your daily routine as a Black person, you would then know how, in most cases, how it feels to be Black. It might be subtle, but it will be different.....same with a fat person, etc.........guaranteed you will know how it feels to be black....be it trying to get a cab, shopping in an upscale store, having car trouble, being stopped for traffic violation, etc. Is that what you meant?

But I wanted to address Rachel's issues of her wanting to be Black. She is suffering from "black envy." It is related to body dysmorphia and thus, it would appear she is a borderline personality..............Disclaimer: the preceding was just bull shit....I feel like being silly and sick of being serious. I haven't had even a sip of wine.....

She's living the same culture and racial characteristics of that socioeconomic group. She could do that with any group of people, but chose the blacks because she has a wide nose.

Amongst black folk that's ^ referred to as 'spread'.

My buddy Glenn once said, "look at the spread on that mutherfucker."

I gave him a bewildered look and he said, "that's a wide nose."

Aaahhhhh.... now I get it.

Is having a large spread considered a good thing? Maybe so given so many of them like an ass the size of Texas.

Glenn's got some pretty good spread himself.

It didn't sound like a lot of spread was a good thing.

It's not. Black folks discriminate against each other for being "blacker" black folks.

Blacker than black, huh. Corpse white isn't exactly a good thing either but that's only my opinion, probably because I like to be tanned.

Porcelain skin isn't bad at all. In fact it's a compliment. What do sun tanned beauties and turkeys have in common? White meat tastes the best

That actually sounded pretty spot on.

When I was around 12 my friend and I would lay out in her back yard to catch a tan and her fat ass mother showed us her legs once and told us that we should stay out of the sun because all the men love her "creamy whites". For some reason I didn't believe her, but she always did have a lot of men in and out of the house, so....

Tan lines activate the launch sequence.

I try not to have tan lines. I'd rather have all over color.

There are plenty of fat white chicks living black already. They're everywhere. They usually are pretty mean and I like to call them "mammys" It gives me a chuckle.
