What is black?

What is black? Only God knows. I often hear people defining black by making certain nonsensical associations between color. like when I hear people saying "you sound white" or "black people don't do that"



I was under the impression that colors encourage diversity. when I opened my first crayola box, I didn't hold up the black and say to myself I'll sound, talk, walk or act like this one day. Back then colors, were simply colors. A spectrum of opportunity.



these days I don't find that's the case, although that's what crayons, markers used to be for. Now a days you find arrogant people making arrogant statements (that's a good correlation). If you're Caucasian you stand for much more than that now because in society you are labeled 'white' and if you're African American, Jamaican, or any form of the shade brown your 'black'. What defines this? I'm not too proud to admit after receiving many answers, I still don't understand.


After being black for 17 years I noticed that people who are 'black' eat fried chicken, speak slang, listen to nothing but rap and R&B and are 'ghetto'. what if the darker skinned fall short of that theory? And let me say again, its a theory. I don't speak slang and though I eat fried chicken, not every night. And thought I love certain rap and R&B entertainers I also listen to rock, classical, soul, alternative and many other genres of music. And, I'm black, no brown. that has nothing to do with anything really.


KiD CuDi is what I consider a great man. I like his music goods beats, but great meaning. his song man on the moon emphasizes the fact that he's not what everyone expects and after some time, he has no fault with it. Now, I don't either. I like being different. listen to that track.
