IS BLACK BACK?

This question “Is Black Back” is a rhetorical question. Black has always been there since the creation of the world, since God created Adam and Eve. There is nothing wrong with the noun “Black.” In fact black is the original color of all colors, No color can be made without the existence of the black color, no wonder black is beautiful. No wonder the father of Soul James Brown told his Negro people to “Say it Loud, I’m Black and I’m Proud!”

The only problem is the fact that white racists perceive the noun black as “evil,” yet black is beautiful. Those who think that black is evil are simply uncivilized, hence, there is no need to spend so much time on this debate whether black is back or not.

We have now seen it in the American culture that black is indeed beautiful and, it is very important to be 100 percent black in the USA political arena. If you claim to be an African American person, you must have 100 percent black blood in your genes, that is, your parents must both have 100 percent black blood from black African ancestors. If you have mixed blood from different races then you are not recognized as a Black person, it means that you are not black enough to claim that you belong to the Black African Race,that’s means that you have no race, hence, the stereotyped society will perceive you as “ the lost generation.”

If you are a politician, your political antagonists will use your mixed color as a weakness to campaign against you because they will percieve you as "the lost generation."It’s a blessing to be born from both parents who have no foreign blood in their genes, whether they are black or white. It’s a curse to be born from mixed blood (Coloreds).You are better off to just have 100 percent of black blood or 100 percent of white(caucasion ) blood in your body.However, no skin color is superior over other skin colors, we are all equal and should just love one another and stop racism.
