Rob was raised by his black family. He's not imitating negative stereotypes. He's being true to his experiences and his life.
Thats also why you can tell Rob is loved by black peeps in his neighborhood.
Bro was a Crip apparently
@@angelor9211 Yeah, I think you're right !
@@angelor9211 yeah, milk from Hoover crips
theyre stupid tho, theyre talking about rob and hes being mad quiet the whole time, thats mad sus
Milk was literally adopted my a black woman as an infant, he's talking exactly how he talks on a daily basis. He's from LA and also Hoover, no ones pretending. He's a product of his environment, period.
Yeah Milk is a real one.
I love how people think accents is strictly an ethnic thing. It's like OK, explain kids who have parents with very different accents. Like, do you think accents is a genetic thing or that only certain ethnicities can have certain accents? Where do you think accents come from....? Do people think we're born with it?
There's a CZcamsr named DavidSo/GeniusBrain who grew up around black people and his parents owned a black beauty supply store. How he talks, people would stereotype as black or even "hood", but he literally grew up in a black neighborhood. His accent isn't as strong now because he toned it down to sort of conform (anyone with that accent understands lol), but you can still hear it. His parents are from Korea, he was born there and moved to the U.S as a kid. According to some people's logic, he should have a heavy Korean accent.
Even Akwafina, if I'm not mistaken, was born in an area that was probably populated by black people because she still has the accent, even if she's just talking cordially.
@@Vincisomething look up the Asian Jamaicans.
@@ducksfanharris8035 I've recently heard of them just randomly mentioned in a video a couple days ago lol. And it's a great example of how ethnicity doesn't always correlate to accents. There are Asians with all sorts of accents from English (Hok from Quest Crew having the most Oxford English accent) to what people would stereotype as black to a deep southern accent.
@@ducksfanharris8035 People would accuse David of trying to sound black because he was this Korean guy with Korean-born parents. He lived in a poor black neighborhood where he was around or knew friends that were gang affiliated (he wasn't gang banging himself) and was around the San Francisco race wars in the 90s as a kid.
He didn't know he was poor until he went to college lol. He was talking about how people were talking about vacations and he was like, "what's a vacation..."
I'm white but grew up in one of the worst neighborhoods in my city, eventually got out, got my life together, and attended college. At college, almost every black person I met was "whiter" than me, in terms of their upbringing, tastes, whatever. it was a strange experience and it's why I never play around with identity politics. You don't know someone's identity until you KNOW them.
This is so true, massive culture shock for me when I went to college as an adult and saw black kids with 2 parents from the suburbs talking about how their oppressed when they didn’t even have to pay for their own college. It really struck a nerve with me
@@jimmy8213 while it's noble to compare others and yourself to people less privileged than you in certain situations, i don't think it's really desirable to draw out of that comparison a justification for any hardship u experience as a result of real or perceived racism. whiteness doesn't mean you have it good in life, but it does mean you have a certain privilege that nonwhite people don't and/or you don't have a certain burden that other nonwhite people don't. this is true across all races and classes, to varying degrees.
the US is a superpower and the world economic/govt system is predominantly industrialized liberal democratic, so it has to have some public perception of benevolence and equality among its people, which isn't to dismiss the role actual activists and pro-black policies have played in improving the material and cultural condition of certain black people. black people in the suburbs do suffer from microaggressions, may have to resort to unique/eccentric personalities to fit in, corporate and systematic exploitation and undermining, etc.. the poor white do have the stench of poverty but their whiteness can help create more favorable conditions for them than their black counterparts.
it's okay to feel some kind of way but afaik u don't seem to separate your feelings from their implications as thoughts and seem to be getting at the idea that middle class black people have overcome racism, or at least the magnitude of racism u can talk about oppression with, through class mobility, implying that there's this absolute standard for how the social construction of poverty and racism should be linked to oppression. poverty, racism, and how it's experienced are relative to the quality of life in the society we're talking about. some black people, largely due to the momentum of history, are stuck in a situation where they can't afford basic survival necessities like food (not food deserts, or less food to lead a healthy life, i mean, they can't afford food at all) , but that's not a common reality in america, even among the low income, a country with social programs and safety nets, though not enough to get ppl back on their feet.
People attribute way to much value and character to skin color. Bias and ego.
@@jimmy8213well yeah ppl still see them as ppl from the hood, that'll do psychological damage to a person
@@kurogikuzuzuki9790there's really only two races, human and animal/not a human as in dogs, cats, etc. Until we learn to put aside our differences and work from our similarities to bond with each other like the friends we should be as caretakers of this wonderful world... We are failing ourselves and each other
my life mirrored Rob's I was a black kid raised in an all white family. I had different struggles but struggles noneoftheless. Everyone struggles... everyone can relate to someone in some way... we dont gotta worry about the color of our skin we gotta worry about the state of our world.

I’m tired of blackness being associated with struggle. Shits embarrassing.

Shits corny. Like black people can't be rich and blessed?
@@baconoftheark law of averages bro, but realistically are successful people going to be wasting their time doing this shit ? No. Especially not people that came from impoverished or struggling backgrounds
Well it's not associated... that's the statistics and living situation........ LMAO
But that's a lot of black peoples reality, No?
imagine a black person, telling another black person, "youre not that black" because they grew up in a stable home with both of their parents in their lives. what kind of standard is being set where something like a stable home, and a strong family structure, makes you less of who you are?
Food for thoughts huh
That’s what Biden said. “If you don’t vote for me you ain’t black.”

Okay but them getting heated about the Florida hairstyles actually had me dead, and then man pulled up palm tree and lit cigarette hairstyles 😂😂
That palm tree 😂 Florida is another planet
That little pic of the palm tree in the corner had me dying. I was laughing so hard gasping for breath. Had my bf side-eyeing the hell out of me 😅
@@ohshesmileslol, i wonder why they do that when they see us laughing at someone or something bc mine did that too
@@FUEGOSTARR rofl yours did it too?!?! I have no clue why they do it like either laugh with me or leave me to my shenanigans 🫠
Another thing I loved about Rob is that Rob never once lied like previous moles do. He never claimed to be black. He never lied about how he grew up, nor did he lie about his thoughts on the black community and how they are represented in America. Rob was straight up with it.
I mean, he was pretty much the only mole that didn’t _have_ to lie, the other ones didn’t have a choice
They found a good mole. Y’all know if someone was lying and pretending we would’ve gotten mad af
@@dani09eveline The wouldn't have had a choice tho
Nah, he's lying about being on gang. He's been publicly denounced by his own alleged gang.
His stare down after he says I’m white broke me 😂
Its the best
man is being devious
😁😭😭😭😭😭😭
lol it was like a villian reveal or some shit 🤣🤣🤣
dont know why but that kinda reminded me of dexter 🤣
Here's a fun fact, as a white guy growing up in a small town in Canada I thought black people were privileged because of the tv shows I watched.
Here's just a few examples,
Little Bill
Proud Family
That's So Raven
Cory in the House
The Cosby Show
and since I was too young to understand that one very important episode, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air aswell.
Everyone in those shows were doing much better than my family and the people I knew, so I assumed all black people were very hard-working successful people with a lot of money and privilege. Obviously I know now that everyone is unique and you can't make assumptions about anyone, especially not an entire group of people / culture, when Aba & Preach spoke about how you're shaped by your environment, it reminded me of that.
😒
😁
😮
🕺🏿🍑👀🚶🏿♂️🚶🏿♂️🚶🏿♂️
What was that Fresh Prince episode about?
"I wasn't rich, they was poor." 😂
This proves that there is no such thing as “acting black” or “acting white.” It’s all about environment. Hopefully they put this argument to bed
Yup exactly that should be the main takeaway from this whole video. I can't believe people are this dense.
That stereotype came from segregation and racism. The “black accent” came from blacks not being able to talk properly because they weren’t able to read or write and had underfunded education. The hood is associated with being black because during Jim Crow and for a lot of years black people only lived in these ran down neighborhoods which turned into the hood. Nowadays you have black people who come from rich families, but it wasn’t always like that so we must respect our ancestors whom came before us. I know this and I’m only a 17 year old black male
@@SOCyak Maybe that was true for some but the behavior you see or might attribute to racism has more to do with economic class.
poor black people who did not live here originally. adopted the mannerism of poor white culture.
the cracker culture which white people who did not get educated worked as slaves literally just look up slave insurance laws whites where about 1/5 to 1/2 less to buy and insure.
we have records of all the deals in the achives online.
don't trust what the Government is teaching you search for the answers yourself. they are always hidden well
@@SOCyakYou don't know much as that way of speaking came from poor white southerners. Obviously who most slaves would have been living around and learning English from. What he said has been the truth from the beginning it's all about the money and nothing else.
as a white dude from philadelphia, i hate hearing anyone from the suburbs adopt our accent but other than that its 100% enviormental, its annoying when u see any race from the suburbs bumping that accent knowing damn well theyre not about that life and never were lol if youre gonna talk shop be prepared to throw hands
Dudes tryna pretend that there ain’t rich black people or black people who go to comic cons or had both mom/dad in their lives.
Yea most of the black guys in the panel seemed to wanna portray black culture as that…possibly to seem cool.

You guys are the only people i can watch for 20 minutes or longer. Love your friendship, your humor, how you talk about issues and analysis of tnem. Great channel and i hope you continue to bring people together for a long time.
I constantly got called a “ white girl” in high school because, my parents were professionals, I dressed “preppy”, spoke correct English (because my parent weren’t having it), we had to have good grades ( no C's) and my suburban parents were strict!!😂😂😂
I am white but went to a majority black school and saw this, some black kids were called white cause of stuff like you described but I never liked that. There were white kids also who grew up in the black communities and were told they were "more black" then some of the black people lol. Just do you! Never submit to what others want and always be yourself. Wish people would stop with the labels on people like they did to you!
girl i feel you, except in my case they called me an oreo for being more of a studious, goody-two-shoes person. somehow that hurt more than being outright called white
How are you doing later in life especially compared to those that talked down to you?
Black women are gorgeous creatures, until they open their mouth and the ghetto comes out. Such a shame.
Same I got called white or trying to be white or white sounding. Because I talked proper and was an honor roll student. My parents work hard to keep us in the suburbs and stressed education. They themselves were not from the suburbs.
it's a shame that in 2023 you can be thought of a "not black" because you didn't come from the struggle. it's sad and pathetic at the same damn time.
yes, no one should be able to 'take away' your blackness - or whatever your preferred group is - you are you no matter what someone says. I don't get why people police this so hard like it's theirs to judge.
I struggle with this as an Indian woman. I am not Indian enough for Indians, as they think I'm too independent/outgoing/and other things that are bad in their eyes. But I'm too Indian for the average American, who often don't even know the differences between a South Asian and an Arab, which I have been yelled at for ("go home to f---king Iraq!!) and assume that I'm shy and domesticated. They assume I'm Hindu, assume I don't eat meat, assume my language, and if not that, they think I'm Mexican.
Literally everybody telling me who to be, nobody getting to know me. Not enough for anyone.
They still black just don't fit into what most black people accustomed to like skateboarding isn't usually seen as something black I don't even think tennis was seen as black eating pumpkin pie, speaking more elegantly but the things seen as black usually revolves around football basketball acting tough being in a gang talking Ebonics and doing shady shit in general but being black is your dna not what you do.
Just a good ole product of American Education & Media
the only thing thats truly sad and pathetic is you american niggas still contribuiting to this stereotype anyway
It is clearly a designed system, to keep control, as someone in White House said, You ain't black.
This was an incredible and fascinating social test. I love the observation narration too. Really on point.
What a cool social experiment. We need more like this. These kinds of things brings people together because it's looking beyond skin colour.
Really shows that upbringing is a lot more important than race.
Crime statistics say otherwise

I’ll never forget the one time that I met a new group of friends when I was younger. They came over to my house and were shocked that I knew my dad and lived in a two parent home. Super shocking to me at the time because that was my norm. I got teased for speaking properly, having a curfew and playing in the orchestra. I’m super grateful for my life though.
Sounds like you had a nice upbringing. However, if you were on this panel, they would tear you right up because you don't fit the stereotypes
@@DivineLogos you’re telling the truth.
Imagine teasing someone for being raised right 🤡🤡
You are so right. My cousins also made fun of me and my brother because we had both parents living in a house. It's crazy. I got made fun of because I enjoyed all types of music besides rap. I spoke to proper and sounded white..Hahahahahaha.
same. Even in my upper-middle-class midwest school, there were a few others in my grade who came from (what I now know as) the projects and when I first met them some of the first questions were "why you talk white?"
I also remember one time I was doing a phone interview and when I showed up for the in-person... they didn't say anything explicitly, but I knew they were expecting less melanin.
Little homie from the Welch's commercial ended up playing Spanky in The Little Rascals
This is still one of my favorites that you guys did.
Growing up in white suburbia, I never heard a white person say something off-color about a black person, but I commonly saw the black kids at my school call my friends oreos because they hung out with white kids. It doesn't help our society to punish black kids for having a variety of interests and not fitting a stereotype.
🤡
Sounds like the black kids punishing themselves.

@@The_Logicianecause we are less motivated to get out of the struggle now than we were back then aka ignorance and I don’t mean stupidity I mean lack of knowledge…lack of know how….lack of motivation
@@The_Logician Because of systemic and institutionalized racism, like redlining for example.
Ukrainians have the public knowledge that Russia has invaded but they can't just say "shoo" to the invaders and the job is done. Effort is required to overcome the obstacles of fortified positions, etc.
Institutionalized racism is one of the fortified positions that most black Americans have working against them.
This video is amazing honestly. The points made about ethnic indenty being tied to socioeconomic factors were very enlightening.
Thats one of the greatest things my father did. He wanted to see the world and he brought his kids along. At the time I remember hating how we had to go to a museum in every country we went to but, now I look back and getting to experience someone else's culture is so enriching.
I dated a girl who grew up in a gated community in a $6M+ house. She said she grew up poor because the others around her had the $10M+ house. She couldn't understand that some people don't have the opportunities to go study abroad, or hit Disneyland a couple times a year, or get a free education (although she earned all her scholarships), or have to work in High School.
it is all relative. Also, some rich people are raised to say they are poor to not be targeted. Kim K. was dumb posting photos showing all her jewelry. It can get you killed.
That girl you dated is an idiot. 100$ bucks says she's fat as well. Ask me how I know. It's a classic.
Damn bro she poor as fuck
“Grew up poor”. v.v. Lol that girl is crazy.
I know a ton of these...
It feels like they live in a different world sometimes.
I’ve been accused of being “too white” because I didn’t talk slang, parents didn’t struggle as much, and I lived in suburban areas and went to a mostly white school. I think it’s not only stupid but racist to associate blackness with struggles and poverty and white with success and wealth.
I come from one of three dutch colonies that speak a creole language. Every colony has its own flavor of creole but is distinct. I speak from one of the blackest and that's a very strong accent, yet I'm white passing and for that people from the all colonies confuse me for the way whiter colony... Like dude I don't speak with a clear Latino accent 💀

I love this: "once you take away someones eyes, you're not relating on skin colour but on social economics and familiar upbringings/experience". This is why I always say everything has context and not every black person grew up without stability and not every white person grew up with a silver spoon.
Yeah but the moment a white person comes here they get treated like kings. You ever noticed how people treat them better than how they treat locals?
Ummm.. Lady... Wanna become my preggo wifey?
This is how ethnic groups form based on common culture and shared experiences. In the US, there is the greater Black American ethnicity. But then there are the subcultures based on class, population size, geography, dialect, etc. within that ethnicity. There's this mistaken belief that the majority of Black American live in urban areas and are poor. In fact, the majority live in the rural south and 50% of Black Americans are middle class or higher.
exactly. Most of racism is being fed through media to people who dont personally experience people outside of their bubble. Stereotypes and exaggerated stories are easy to spread to people who don't interact with other communities. It is in coming together and judging people on their character and share values that'll get us forward
Very few white people grow up with a silver spoon.
You two made many valid observations. so glad I found your channel.
Y’all’s reactions and commentary are top tier 😂 much love ❤good vibes
It’s crazy that the black men see being black as a struggle. There are literally millions of thriving black communities. Being black shouldn’t be synonymous with struggle.
Not to mention they're hardly unique to the concept of struggling in life.

@@Welsh-Trials-Enduro Yes but that doesn’t change the reality of how black people may view other blacks people

I think this just really goes to show you... hood is hood, poor is poor, rich is rich, country is country. You're a product of your environment, color is just something you choose to correlate to struggle or privilege.
I am a "white boy" from the hood and if you talk to me blind or on the phone you will bet you last dollar I am black. I do have a "white voice" I use sometimes BUT when I am comfortable you will only here the dialect I got from my hood.
EXACTLY!!
I’m Korean but grew up in the hood. I loved reading books though and spoke proper English. So I was never hood enough for my friends and I was always considered too “white”. I thought it was dumb that speaking proper English, doing well in school, and reading books was related to race. I just wanted to get out of the hood by doing well in school. 🤷♀️
Edit: when I get angry, the hood rat does come out. And if you piss me off, I do not give AF, I will get ghetto.
This one chick thought she could cut me in line bc I’m a Korean woman and so I wouldn’t say anything. I put up such a fuss calling her out for cutting and being loud that she had to roll out. I was NOT having it.

6:32 The fact that he literally said that Brevin was basically too privileged to be black. And THAT is the problem. To too many people, if you're white, you're automatically privileged, and if you're black, you're automatically a victim of circumstance. What Preach says later about it being about socioeconomic status is absolutely correct.
Preach is the dude on the left, I think Aba said it first
Nope, white privilege is abound the civilized world. You try being brown and applying to be a teacher in Korea.
As a teacher who used to work in the hood in Texas, I know this is actually not far-fetched. I've had numerous Hispanic and Asian students who fit into the stereotypical "black kid from the ghetto" image. Environment is definitely huge factor. I agree that most people tend to adapt to the behaviors that are common and/or praised in their environment.
Only people from the south see it as a stereotypical black thing or outside the us in NYC it was a ghetto/hood thing most of those environments were filmed with black/Latino family’s

The saddest thing about racial prejudice and stereotypes are when we impose them on ourselves. As a black woman, I identified with about 2% of what these guys talked about. So to THEM that means I'm not black, so narrow is their view of blackness and of people.
You aren't alone. Stay strong.
I always keep that quote from Carlton in the back of my mind. "Being black isn't something I'm *trying* to be, it's what I am." I couldn't possibly give less of a damn about how 'black' I'm perceived to be by the black community. I don't even agree with a majority of what's considered black culture as is, so the feeling is mutual. We don't live in a hive mind.
This video was about black men not black women, of course you can’t relate to everything being said. Having the same skin colour doesn’t mean your experiences are the same.
Right. But you see what these guys associate with being black themselves
I'm with you.
I just wanna give a little story. I am a black man, when I was 6 my mom and brother told me, "people are gonna treat you different because of the color of your skin. It's not right, but we have to prepare you for the real world". Facts. But I didn't realize that they meant by my own people too. I grew up in the bay area hoods, Stockton, Richmond, Hayward. And because I wanted to be educated and well spoken, just so I could be seen as more than just my skin. I was called white-washed, a pretender, the white man's B#!$%. By my own people. When people hear my voice online they think I'm white, not because the tone or bass in my voice, but because I sound too smart. Aba n Preach, y'all hit the nail on the head hard.

It must really suck. I grew up in the country but was raised on the internet, I don't sound country at all and nobody really cares. It's easy to adapt to where you want to be and who you spend your time around, if I was shit on for that it would be annoying as hell.

5:45 in and I think the discussion surrounding racial stereotypes are often inaccurate. What they associate with race is actually just a function of class. Because someone isn't poor or "street", they couldn't be black hence the outcome they got with this game. What do yall think? Do we attribute to race what realize is just about class/geography? Let us know.
I'd change the word class to culture. Rich hispanics and poor hispanics act the same if they partake or were raised in the same subculture for better or worse.

Yes. It's a mostly American thing because a particular race has been relegated to the bottom class for so long that both have became synonymous in the minds of some.

They nailed it. It was never about race but always about socioeconomic differences. Those who make it about race do so to promote division and empower themselves (typically politically, but also for fame/money as well).
Never say never, but overwhelmingly, yes! One of my favorite moments related to this topic is from a clip involving Daryl Davis, when a K .k .K _wizard,_ one of their top guys, shook Daryl's hand and then said to some white folks nearby, "I have more respect for this black man than I do for you white [n~words]!" It's a pretty amazing clip, I recommend looking it up if you haven't seen it 😅
this part!!!
This is something medicine has struggled with and is just starting to realize. A lot of conditions were mistakenly attributed to race when it has nothing to do with that. It's socioeconomic status. A larger proportion of impoverished folks are comprised of black folks. It's unfortunate but many doctors allow their eyes to lie to them. They think certain conditions are prevalent in the Black community when it's just the impoverished community.
@@spk1121 white n-words is fucking wild 😂
To be fair though race plays a role, like there was a study comparing resumes where the only differences where stereotypically black names and criminal records and they found that a white guy with a criminal record had the same chance of getting a job has a black guy without. Class matters, but race does as well.
You guys are funny. I definitely subscribed. Most reaction videos are trash, I love this, this was great. You guys have great energy!

As a South African this is true. I'm white/Korean and I grew up in a very poor area over here, so whenever I see other Koreans or Whites I can never relate to them because they are completely different to me. Since I was small most of friends have been black or have been from similar circumstances to me. It's not about race, its about class. Rich black kids and white kids get along super well, and the same goes for poor kids of all races

He said that right as I was reading this comment
Man I’ve been not black enough my entire life, especially in family. Now admittedly, some of the jokes ARE funny. And I’m ok with simple teasing and you still want to be my friend. But the gatekeeping is a major problem. I can’t even begin to describe how often I’ve been rejected by my own kind for not fitting into their little box. We really have got to stop this.
It’s fucking frustrating man. Like I am not allowed to like John Mayer just because I grew up in a low income black area? I’ll throw on John Mayer and the next song will be project pat; I have diverse taste and don’t limit myself because of my skin color, you know, cause I’m not racist
What's wild is our community does that to the most intellectually promising ones within it. They outcast the very people with the potential to improve and change the culture.
And then when those outcasts are successful and surrounded by the people OUTSIDE of their community that provided them an opportunity and gave them encouragement all outside the community... those outcasts are seen as sellouts.
It's a rough dynamic to navigate.
Boy can I relate. You know how much BS I got growing up watching anime and playing fighting games instead of basketball and playing 2K?
I am not american and I always wondered about why black people in the US do this to each other. I mean on one hand they are out there fighting not to be seen as monoliths...but then they expect their own to live up to stereotypes and its mostly negative ones. What is corny or bad about having a little sophisticated speech, or dressing well and not like a teenage boy as a grown man...what is bad about not wanting to be involved in crime crap or being good at school. It really seems like some people want to keep themselfes down.
It's very unfortunate. Blk ppl love to say we aren't a monolith however whenever someone steps outside of the "stereotypes" and do things that aren't "inherently black" then we're criticized and shame for it. We have the one, narrowed minded way of thinking and how you must act to be "Black"

Poeple hatin on Milk who was steeped in the culture like he's posing, but was raised by people who weren't his blood but treated him like nothing less - I love that. Feel bad for Rosebud and his blood that doesn't accept him.
Milk is accepted by most members as one of the few white crips, he grew up with and hung out with crips all day everyday so of course he's gonna sound like them? People don't seem to know his full story?
Nah in Rosebud’s case he’s lucky. J3ws that act like that are the same that sterilised Ethiopian J3ws in Israel to prevent their whiteness from being dirtied. There’s no changing those people.
Always fascinated me that our people fought to get "For whites only" signs taken down but we hold them up on each other so quickly. SMH. I remember being told how I talk white, like I had no right to speak how I wanted.

Same here, my mother moved back to Mississippi from Minnesota, after my father died of cancer. First day of school teacher told me to introduce myself from my seat and kids asked me why I talk white??? I was like wtf is talking white, speaking without a southern accent and pronouncing words as they are supposed to be pronounced isn't talking white, anymore than doing the later is talking black. And for some reason the kids in my class would get offended when I would correct the teacher when they made mistakes during grammar and geography lessons. You'd think they would appreciate not going through life possibly looking like fool thinking Texas is larger than Alaska, because that's how it looked on the map, but nope.

This is why being so obsessed with skin color only makes one miserable. The people around you are your brothers and sisters. Not some stranger with the same skin tone as you.
Its always something you have in common but in the most shallow sense. Latinos hear me speak fluent Spanish and suddenly we're best of friends... Like dude I don't know you and I'm just giving you the courtesy to speak more freely in your own language instead of broken x language. Speaking over six languages is freeing but also makes you wary because not everyone should know you speak their language and if they do, you might get pulled into things you don't want to be involved in!
I don’t think anyone is obsessed with skin colour.
@@frenchgirl5878 Your sentence ended at "think".
Skin color matters, when describing someone's appearance.
I agree, we are all just different shades of melanin and variations in features but we’re all the same. The environment changes people more than anything
what you said about race vs class is so real
bro yall are hilarious! ive watched 3 or 4 of yall the last couple days and im hooked. Subbed up for sure!!! one love fellas, keep it funny and real!
I’ve been saying this forever and no one wants to have this conversation. Many “black” struggles are actually socioeconomic struggles, and it’s important to tell the difference because the solution for each is very different.
Amen. Poor is poor. Just sold to masses as a racial thing. Real issues are not racial but monetary. If we normies actually came together the rich would quake.
Thats a big reason why 3rd world countries love shows like Everybody hates chris, a lot of the things that go on the show are super relatable, my whole generation grew up on that shit and we all loved and felt represented, not because of color but because poor families dont really change that much around the world
The powers that be (the government) doesn't want us focusing on socioeconomic issues because if we were all focused on that, we'd be more likely to unite and rise up against them and/or demand change. So they keep us divided by making people's struggles and differences about race.
In comes retard socialist to whine about "class reductionism" and how because the socioeconomic struggles are related to generations of oppression, we need to fix the "white supremacy" causing the poverty.
All my cousins on one side grew up super wealthy. Living in the same neighborhoods as Celebrities. They always had to prove their " black" while actually being black ( both parents are black). It lead one of them to gang banging and doing over 10 years for murder.
As a black man with the voice of Kyle living in the deep south (Savannah) Suburbs, whose parents are still together after 35 years, whose parents also have higher education one with a Master's and another with a PHD, I can understand EVERYTHING that Aba and Preach said about race and class is true to my experience. Now living in Atlanta, I often have to prove my blackness in order to be accepted by other black people. I sometimes don't tell people how a grew up because of the perception other black people will see in me. I may have dark skin tone but I'm too white or too privilege to be black and its so frustrating. Racism still exist no matter how you grew up.
Sorry to hear you've struggled in this way. My dad is a (retired) pastor and his first church was an all-black congregation in NC (in 1973), so he & my mother were the only white members. Mom has mentioned about how she would be in a group setting and they'd be talking about "white women," but everyone understood that didn't include her, including my mom! 😄 I was born there, making me the third white person in the church, but my folks moved when I was still less than a year old. I have occasionally wondered who I'd be if they had stayed there longer, if I'd have some of the issues you're talking about. Anyway, they still speak very fondly of the people in the congregation & the positive impact they had on both of them. 😇
I'm Greek and moved to Scotland when I was 16. I speak with a southern English accent (what they call 'posh', I just adopted it from watching BBC programs growing up) and as Scotland is like 95% white Scottish, most discrimination is based either on sectarianism (the Catholic vs Protestant divide) or the Anglo-Scottish animosity. The abuse I got for being perceived as English was so bad and constant, that I had to adopt a very gruff Glaswegian accent to 'blend in' and get by.
When I moved to England at 30. I just reverted back to my 'natural' accent, but living in a multi-racial area (mostly Pakistani Asian), I started getting loads of abuse for being a 'white boy' and people assuming that because of my accent I was both English and have lived a life of privilege.
I understand where you 're coming from and both our experiences prove that racism and classism are a struggle for all people. Stay strong my friend.
The self-hate in your own community is wild. It's why I don't claim anything, I am what I am, my community othered me a long time ago. That old saying of a child not being embraced by the village will burn it down to feel it's warmth, is true. It can all burn down, bc I'll always be an outsider to my community 😂
I have a regular London accent and I'm well-spoken. According to people around me that means not sounding black. Didn't know there was a "sounding black"... I just speak well.
I feel this, I grew up in different classes from the hood to the suburbs. But either way I was always interested in school and reading and trying fit is with other black people who usually found gang culture more interesting

I'm black. Born in Montréal. Haitian parents. This conversation really strikes home for me.
My father was home every night.
My parents did not have much. But they made huge sacrifices to give us the best they could.
And they were a little more open minded than most haitians.
I went to a really good public school that always competed against some of the best private schools.
Ski trips
performing arts (music & acting classes)
swimming classes (became a lifeguard)
traveled to U.S.A and Europe
Most of my life other black people thought I was rich...I grew up in one of the poorest areas in the country (Parc Ex...for those who know)
Even Haitians came from Africa at one point before or around the 1700. I’m white and My 3 great grandfather lived in Haiti in the early 1800 and escaped to Cuba with help from black workers who worked under him during the riots or wars in 1820-40 but I’m not either of those as they came from France.
I lived in NY Long Island. The area was poor and run down but if you went off the main street the neighbourhood was beautiful. Haitians had moved in (with nothing) and bought the properties because they were cheap and rebuilt the homes and made them beautiful
That’s third base. Kids grew up on two meals a day and substandard housing where you could see your kitchen from your bathroom through holes in the walls.
You had it pretty good compared.
The only other country I saw was Mexico because it was close and groceries was cheaper.
And we still had to pass tanks and military outposts to get there.
You sound rich.
For me, traveling to Canada or Europe would cost half my parents yearly income.

As a black South African who grew up in a community that had almost all families having mom and dad, it freaks me out that being black in America is associated with single-mom families, jail/prison, poverty and all the negativity. It makes me upset. And it looks like the "trend" still continues today.
Fellow South African 🤝
Drug war in action.
It's because it's embraced by them and the very people who hate them. Who paid for and advertised gangbanging rap music? Who put the laws in place that incentivized and enabled the destruction of the black family unit? Who pumped their communities full of crack and redlined the homeowners? The black experience is the most successful psyop in American history and they fall for it to this very day.
Well for the white guy in the video he said that he was adopted by a black mom and actually is from south central La. that was really just his experience.
Cap! 🧢 It’s the same in South Africa stop capping. 68% of birth certificates in SA have no fathers in them. It’s the same fam, unless if you grew up in the Suburbs or “traditional” Rural areas. In Townships only 20% of guys had present fathers growing up. It’s changed a lot with millennial parents, they’re more present. But the previous generations were taken from their kids by Apartheid.

I relate to a lot of the things stated in this video. I grew up poor, in the inner city, detroit/Columbus. I was adopted out, though. When I went back, everyone greeted me: You must be Brittany's brother? And when I asked them why: you the only other white person here.
As a result of growing up with Black people, then being adopted ot of it, I realized I couldn't talk like I talked where I grew up ANYWHERE else. Without the history backing me up I was seen as posing, even though the struggle was definitely more difficult in Columbus than in Bowling Green. I learned my own version of color switching if you will. I still revert somewhat when i go back to visit. Sometimes, people try and test me when I go back, until they find out who my brothers are...
This is a great social experiment as it shows how us as black people stereotype ourselves w/ standards that were basically placed on us (poor, uneducated, incomplete home, etc.). We just continue to perpetuate this all amongst each other where we will call others out for not being "black enough." Getting both back & white to reject/push against those that are outliers to those stereotypes, but those outliers ofter those evolving & progressing the culture where it should go, vs. those that are complacent. Trust me, you can be just as black if you're part of a 2-parent household, are well-educated, live in good neighborhood and positively impact society.
That's why the left are the biggest racists. "Ah you poor black person, don't worry, I will help you, because you can't do it on your own..."

This video shows how many black people associate blackness with poverty and struggle. Which is sad but real. If I was on the panel I would've gotten voted out instantly just based on my own personal experiences. Whenever I was around other black kids, the differences were painfully and awkwardly obvious. Combine that with the fact that I am lighter skinned with somewhat racially ambiguous features and that basically solidified it.
I as well because my parents that adopted me and my younger sister from Haiti are white and I’m pretty well educated and speak English very well and my parents are white siblings and I are not rich but pretty well off
If I told my family history, without my accent getting in the way, they'd have never voted me off xD
I actually don't think every person there had such stereotypes. You really judge by accent and confidence mostly. Rob wasn't voted out, because he was telling the truth all along.

Not necessarily its def the way you act
Use of words might have been it but more likely it was actions and words. Unless you're just alabaster white🤷♂️
@@sip7532 I mean people have literally said to my face I’m white because I’m using big words. I am of black and white blood, so I have characteristics of both. Regardless of if it’s words or actions, I think it’s kinda goofy to have to say and do certain things for people to accept that you are whatever race/ethnicity you are.
I was put into foster care at 14 and raised by a black family in a predominately black area. Accents, mannerisms, interests, etc all of that changes when you're in a different environment especially when you're young and more impressionable. I remember I used to rap with my foster brothers (that's what everyone did in the area when I grew up) who would make CDs and pass them around school. Jaws would drop to the floor when they found out I was white lol. Looking back at everything I think it's definitely a class thing and not so much a racial thing. Shit most of the racism I've seen from all sides were from the perspective of middle class people. Poor people generally don't seem to give a fuck where you're from / what color you are, same with most rich people I know.
I was either a very special child, or this theory about people always being shaped by their environment so much that they cant shake it, is just wrong. I never liked what was around me, I never talked like people around me, I didnt dress like them and I grew up to have totally different values, interests and mannerisms... peer pressure never worked on me and I was impressionable in certain ways but not by my surroundings. I was impressed by things that were different than what was around me and I couldnt wait to get away from what I was born into.
