All those Kora, Dutch and Indians

kora means?

korea?

^^by mainstream black i mean african and direct african descendants, as you well know.

there are other non-african blacks in the world but their skin colour is not their primary method of identification in their cultural set up, and neither does it have to be.

end of.

I'm not hating, ! Just want to know in which roles she can see herself!!!

i tire oh!!!

the butt kissers are too many.

later they catch feelings when people say their mind about shoddy movie production.

why don't you just simply change your bank to one that doesn't charge this so called 'up country' charge

true.

in some other thread, a guy saw an insect in a food he was eating at a fastfood outlet he complain about it but but was shout down by ANOTHER customer to stop disturbing everybody cos of just 300 food

hehehe

which thread is that.

ezeagu:
Someone just told you that a Vanuatuan ticked 'black other', there's no asian culture about them, they're aboriginal.

one vanatuan ticking black other doesnt mean all of them are doing the same.


if black primarily means african, then they are a different category.

sri lankans and many indians are darker than most continental africans but they're not officially listed as black.

The Papuans in Indonesia even have a separatist movement for their half of the island. There's no option for 'latino hispanic', they'll just have to tick 'other'.

the US options for hispanics are black-hispanic

and black non-hispanic.

white- hispanic

white non-hispanic.


they're still grouped separately from mainstream blacks.

everywhere has a separatist movement.

nothing new.

ezeagu:
They are Oceanian, more specifically Melanesian which is between the continents of Asia and Australasia (they lean towards Australia because they are actually "Aboriginals". They identify as black, therefore they have a "black background" which means they would tick 'Black other', just like a South American would tick 'Black other' and not just 'other' for American.

i doubt they'd tick black other.

black asians identify officially with the asian culture over ethnicity.

same way hispanics include all colours.

the term black primarily is associated with africa, and not all blacks are from africa originally.

and black hispanics would call themselves latino or hispanic, not necessarily black.

I don't know of any British black people that are descendants of seamen, do you have any stories?

mostly in liverpool. I read it somewhere- maybe wiki. Many of them intermarried however

Liverpool's status as a port city has contributed to its diverse population, which, historically, were drawn from a wide range of peoples, cultures, and religions, particularly those from Ireland. The city is also home to the oldest Black African community in the country

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverpool





there were a lot of west african blacks in 16th century england, but it seems most of them were transferred to spain and portugal or some other place.

the blacks in 18th or 19th century britain were likewise sent back to sierra leone or elsewhere.

ezeagu:
Actually, many Papuans see themselves as 'black', same as many from places like Vanuatu, plus Papuans are Oceanian's. I don't know of any British black people that are descendants of seamen, do you have any stories?

they're black but still asian. Or, in the US, pacific islanders.

the british law enforcement categories are:

British Police use a classification based in the ethnic background of British society: W1 (White-British), W2 (White-Irish), W9 (Any other white background);

M1 (White and black Caribbean), M2 (White and black African), M3 (White and Asian), M9 (Any other mixed background);

A1 (Asian-Indian), A2 (Asian-Pakistani), A3 (Asian-Bangladeshi), A9 (Any other Asian background);

B1 (Black Caribbean), B2 (Black African), B3 (Any other black background);

O1 (Chinese), O9 (Any other). Some of the characteristics that constitute these groupings are biological and some are learned (cultural, linguistic, etc.) traits that are easy to notice

while in the US :

In the 2000 Census and subsequent United States Census Bureau surveys, Americans self-described as belonging to these racial groups:[3]

White: those having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa.

Black or African American: those having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa.

American Indian or Alaska Native, also called Native Americans: those having origins in any of the original peoples of North, Central and South America, and who maintain tribal affiliation or community attachment.

Asian, also called Asian American: those having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, and the Indian subcontinent; frequently specified as Chinese American, Korean American, Indian American, Filipino American, Vietnamese American, Japanese American, etc.

Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander: those having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands; see also Pacific Islander American.

Some other race: respondents write in the race they consider themselves to be, if different from the foregoing categories. This category captures responses such as Mestizo, Creole, and Mulatto,[8] but among the write-in entries reported in the 2000 census were also South African, Moroccan, Belizean, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban and Wesort, mixed, interracial, and others.[3][9] This is not a standard OMB race category.[3]

Two or more races, widely known as Multiracial: those who check off and/or write in more than one race. There is no actual option labelled "Two or more races" or "Multiracial" on census and other forms; only the foregoing six races appear, and people who report more than one of them are categorized as people of "Two or more races" in subsequent processing. Any number, up to all six, of the racial categories can be reported by any respondent

jumobi1:
Long Island. But I'm Ibo so you won't like me anyways

why do you think so.

^^clean your mind.

ileke idi plz stop following me around and for goodness sake keep your frigging mouth and comments to yourself on anything that concerns me.

dont let me start abusing you in this place because i'm getting fed up with your inane and psychotic comments.

a word is enough for the wise.

plz dont make me call out your lineage for you.

learn to shut the goshdarn heck up when necessary.

nobody likes a nuisance, and if you think some of your husbands are straying, then post more semi n.aked photos of yourself to bring them back.

This would tell you , I am not a white p person

ok.

indzsh:
what can i see here is quite negative comments, it seems my look have to be changed,

ignore whatever you consider negative comments.

just check out those other sites as well and network, like someone said, if you're serious about wanting a nollywood role.

the body language in the photo is quite interesting.

do you have a tan?

anyway it's probably easier getting a nollywood role if you're in nigeria itself, i think.

but you can post here or in the movie section and see if someone can help you out.

also, try other nigerian sites like nollywood.com or naijarules as well.

is it like a jeremy irons voice?

or the guy from soul train.

if they like let them not learn from the south african experience.

ezeagu:
Other Blacks are Papuans, African Americans, Negritos, Black South Americans, people from other areas that identify as black, it could be adopted children, it could be half 'Caribbean/Half African children', etc.

Any "black person" from Africa is "Black African".

There aren't many Black British people without knowledge of a country of origin outside Britain, even among adopted children who's biological parents, most times, leave knowledge about themselves.

papuans and negritos would be asian.

AAs and hispanic could be other black i guess.




some blacks in liverpool are the descendants of african seamen from one or two generations ago.

justwise:
There is no doubt that this thread will definately make some pple come out smoking but i don't think it got anything to do with his written English which i don't have problem with.

Yes, the thread is controversial, many will not like it but he stated that in his abstract.

my point is the poster's time would be better spent removing the enormous log in his eye ie improving his horrible english, instead of stalking nigerian women all over the place in this jobless manner.

abi what's a better way to explain this?

yorubas say ai tete m'ole, ole m'oloko.

ie trying to detract attention from your ugly inadequacies by pointing fingers at others.


hypocrisy and daftness of the highest order.

seriously, you people are ruining your generation with all this lemming crap.

may God forgive all these criminal elements cos their master the devil certainly wont.

lordy lordy.

nkan be.

poster, have this alledged girlfriend of yours sign up on nairaland and ask for tpiah.

i need to tell her some home truths and also find out if she's the one begging you to marry her.

wetin person no go hear from all these male agberos, touts and unsavoury characters.

if women still dey your village, marry one of them nah.

or is there something they know that others dont.

it's called destructive behaviour, not reaction to "oppression".

enough of the unnecessary sugarcoating.

other blacks probably means blacks who arent from africa or the carribean.


they could be hispanic, middle eastern or simply blacks who have been in the UK longer than any other group of blacks in recent memory.

not really sure.

is he married?
