Even when you posted this pic of Jessica http://static.gossipgirlinsider.com/images/gallery/jessica-szohr-yearbook-photo.jpg
,she looks hispanic in that pic. Anyway Jessica is only a quarter black end of story.
um yea while there arent any golden skinned blue eyed 100 percent black people is doesnt change the fact that ahe is part still part black. Nobody said she looks like she’s completely black. And i think thats the point fuzzybear is trying to make.
And it would seem like you’re the one who doesnt understand the concept of race hun.
I am not explaining myself any further, I have come to except that many people do not understand the concept of race or ethnicity.
um, Fuzzy Bear, why do you keep replying? Are you talking to yourself?
Nothing that you say makes any sense.
To gjhgbjkl and Lauren,
Ok lets do it this way,since you both say what a black person isn’t, it should be real easy for you to tell me who is a black person.I want you to us only African American people,feel free to use pics
