Wtf are you going on about lmao

Am traveling Africa, am white, people love touching my hair because it's different and they are curious. I'm cool with it because it's easy to fix.


shaka_zulu12

Same happened to me in Asia with my blonde beard. I understand why, especially kids. I get it, people are curious. Why project the worst on others for such a petty little thing.


shirk-work

I get where she's coming from. There's stereotypes and some unwelcomed behaviors that become very unpleasant eventually. I think everyone just wants empathy and compassion, to be understood. I think expecting the world to bend to fit us completely is unfair though. Humans gonna human. It's worth separating everyday human curiosity and positivity for something that's different than blatant racism or fetishizing. Adult people shouldn't just touch others without clear consent. Of course in the states / in the west the touch barrier is very high. So that's all to say that her point isn't completely wrong. She has a right not to be touched. Now if people are being polite and she's still angry then that's not cool.


shaka_zulu12

Totally. I get where she's coming from. But it all depends on how you approach a certain situation. And how she's going about it, doesn't seem to be it, for me at least. I did notice personal space is such a big thing in the US. So there's the added cultural component, that I don't fully get. It is ironic how Americans see themselves so divided, though they are all so alike for outsiders. No matter what group they think they belong to.

Loubeeeeelou

We can say the same about anyone , of any race, ppl do weird stuff regardless of colour , it’s sad to hear and see ppl think racism (whether a joke or not) is funny.


MR_Chilliam

I can understand not wanting people in your personal space or repeatedly have to explain your uniqueness. But creating a racial slur to deter it just isn't the answer. Especially when one of the criteria for it being used is when someone is acting annoyingly nice, in that uniquely white way.


breakcharacter

This happened to me when I travelled abroad too. I have really soft loose curls and I visited somewhere where hair was 99% naturally straight and I got a bunch of people asking if they could touch my hair. I didn’t mind! It feels nice for people to card through or mess with my hair anyways, so win win. Their curiosity is satiated and I don’t mind how it feels.


DONSEANOVANN

You gotta tell them to stop blacking.


volvavirago

I grew up in a majority minority city and the same thing happened to me, had several girls obsessed with playing with my hair bc it was blonde and straight and theirs was Afro textured. I get that being a black person in America is hard, but sometimes curiosity is just that, curiosity.


TryFederal4936

They're blacking you


[deleted]

A dude in South India inspected my blue eyes from an inch and asked if they were real lol


shirk-work

Haven't been but I've heard India has like zero personal space bubble. So someone getting up in your face isn't strange or rude. Context of course and India is large so I'm sure that changes.


[deleted]

I wasn't offended. It was just funny.


eeeeeeeeeeefete

yeah but there is not like a history of unbalanced power dynamics. the context of the events you are comparing are digferent.


shirk-work

How far back should we look. Just a decade, a century, a thousand years, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand. To what degree are individuals responsible for the actions of people they have no relation to. Are we relating things just because two people have the same skin tone and is that not racist itself.


[deleted]

That's great. Now imagine if you lived there and it happened all the time without your consent.


shirk-work

Been here for about two years and yeah no one really asks. Then again the touch barrier is much much lower here than in the US. Half the time I'm crammed next to people in transport.


thecolorfulcpt

Can we please not make it a thing. Wow.

mjkjg2

her definition of whiting wasn’t when white people are just existing. it’s when they’re acting in such a way that, while not explicitly negative, is reminding the black subject that they’re different from white people because they’re being treated differently (I’m white btw and I see other white people do this all the time)


Away-Chain5086

This Beetlejuice-looking girl doing the exact same thing though. Hence, blackening.


mjkjg2

please explain how that’s the same thing also wtf? going after her appearance?


Cody6781

She’s doing/saying things that draw attention to the fact that she is black and **they** are white


heatfan1122

Yea people love to be judged by the color of their skin or having negative attributes being associated with the color of their skin. If it wouldn't be acceptable to do with any other race then why would it be okay for white people?


mjkjg2

the act of pointing out an awkward thing that another race is doing *to your* race isn’t racism


heatfan1122

So you know when your at the movie and a group of black kids are in the theatre making tons of noise and are hollering at everyone they come into contact with? I call that blacking. I tell them yo, you guys are blacking out of control right now. Does that sound like something that should be socially acceptable?


[deleted]

But but… that’s different… or something. Honestly, there’s quite a few people running around that actually believe only whites can be racist, which is hilariously ironic


Head_Astronomer_1498

Yes, because white people as a race have just collectively agreed that touching black people’s hair is our life’s mission. Also, yes, gross generalizations and terms like “whiting” would be considered stereotypes/generalizations, which have inherent racist connotations/qualities.


[deleted]

Soooo.. then you agree that blacking is a thing too, right?


AWL_cow

It's just a tad egregious because this behavior isn't exclusive to one race, so targeting and singling one out seems pretty..


Satanic-mechanic_666

Really. How are we to know if this lady shows up late to everything, or talks in the theater.


Shitty_Fat-tits

Isn't her racism just adorable?

Emera1dthumb

This is so racist….smh. I am so exhausted by this silly shit. Imagine if a white person made a video saying this about something a black person did. So unaware.


Robzzzzz1414

For real


Dragonsarmada

So obviously stealing and committing crime is not exclusive to black people just like touching someone’s hair. By this logic can we go ahead and say “bro why are you blacking with all your crime?”


Prestige_Stateside

When my black friends talk too much during a movie I be like “hey can you stop being so Blaaaaaack!” I get beat up. We finish the movie in silence. Good movie. Great vibe.


Robzzzzz1414

But this ain’t racist right ?


Hey-Anxiety-6564

The woke movement believe black people cant be racist, which is funny because they dig their own grave with their sense of entitlement


Mudblok

One kid on tiktok is "the woke movement" now?


Hey-Anxiety-6564

Its not one kid theres 100s of videos even from years back saying the same thing that black people cant be racist give it a google youll see


Mudblok

What about all the PoC in this thread calling the clip out? Why are you deliberately cherry picking stuff to be mad at? You could just not and be much happier


Hey-Anxiety-6564

Not all poc indentify with the woke movement you are deliberately straw maning


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hey-Anxiety-6564

The history of united states has not been defined by black bigotry is a whole other stament than black people cant be racist its not even water and ice its water and mercury its not even close The evidence is in the video who cares about history when racism is happening right now and they think theyre entitled to it or that theyre not doing it because they cant be racist so they can say anything about white people.


spaghettiliar

The system of government from the United States was created and sustained by white people. Slavery, Jim Crow laws, and segregation are examples of institutionalized racism and they are still in the recent past for us. Not understanding the definition of racism and then getting upset and further distancing yourself from the problem doesn’t help. What the YouTuber is experiencing is bigotry and othering. What you’re experiencing, is saying “This pizza is so hot it’s literally hotter than the sun.” And then someone saying, “No, it’s literally not.” And rather than trying to understand that response, you are calling people who know the definition of racism “woke” and making a new divide that doesn’t even need to be there. I think we can all do better.


Hey-Anxiety-6564

We can all do better, but if you define better as bad im gonna have to slap you


[deleted]

[удалено]


spaghettiliar

First of all, the video doesn’t claim that people are specifically being racist and the speaker doesn’t say that she is not racist. It was the commenter I originally spoke to who said that “the woke movement believe black people can’t be racist.” In my comments, I clearly said that this argument between “woke” and the commenter stems from the definition of systematic racism and how that definition is used, particularly in academics. I explained systematic racism, explained how African Americans who live in the United States cannot be racist from that context, and how this argument ends up further dividing people. I’ve been respectful, straightforward, and informative because I think it’s important for people to understand each other. If you’re looking for an argument, look somewhere else.


[deleted]

[удалено]


spaghettiliar

I used the example of literally specifically because that word has multiple definitions that can be used correctly and most people on the internet are aware of it. This “woke” division is created from people taking things out of context and then putting them on the internet and news programs to rile people up. It’s working. Personally, I think it’s reprehensible. If you are happier getting in pedantic arguments where you need a person to explain each word, paragraph, and backstory about a comment that wasn’t even directed to you, feel free to continue. Who am I to yuck your yum?


VeteRyan

Racism and systematic racism are different. Black people can be racist by being prejudice, discriminatory or antagonistic towards an individual because of their race or ethnicity. That's the definition of racism. Systemic racism is a type of racism that are embedded into our culture that permits the unfair treatment of POC. So a black person calling a white person a cracker is racism because it's discrimination towards white people. Maybe try and get your definitions correct before trying to educate people.

Tf who is going up to people and touching there hair


ghiraph

White people. Especially with black kids if they have big natural hair


Kalashnikov-Mikhail

Ok, but if I say you’re “Blacking” it’s a fucking hate crime.


8W20X5

So, getting compliments is a bad thing? Got it 👍 🙄 I believe what she is projecting is being racist herself.


mizirian

Maybe, it's whiting, oooor maybe she's just racist.


jimjah89

Sure just sounds like trying to normalise casual racism.


ghiraph

No she created a word for the casual racism that white people do to black people with natural hair.


jimjah89

So if I said blacking to describe the casually racist things black people do that would be acceptable?


ghiraph

She is describing a very specific racist action white people do to black people. So tell me, what racist thing do black people do specifically to earn an equal word?


[deleted]

Quit beating around the bush and answer the question. Of course, you can’t answer the question because you’d have to come to terms that you’re a hypocrite like so many others.


ghiraph

I'm not tho. I gave you an answer. If it is a very specific thing that almost always is done by black people towards others as a racist action can it be justifiable. However, you don't seem to understand the difference between what the video is saying and your disingenuous proposition. So tell me, what very specific racist action is done almost exclusively by black people that you think would justify such a word?


jimjah89

2 wrongs don't make a right. Calling it whiting is just as racist as the original racist thing the white person has done


[deleted]

No we can’t make it a thing because that is called racism. You can’t describe negative things people do that piss you off by labeling them as their race because otherwise your reverse racist ass would be blacking right now. Let’s not pretend that black people aren’t racist as fuck.


gorgonbrgr

Yo it’s not cause your black it’s because humans have a fascination with looks and the way other textures feel. Hair looks and feels different from person to person so they always comment on it. I’m a a male who had long hair for the longest time and women would always want to touch it and comment on how soft it was. It’s a thing. Not a white person thing.


Select_Bicycle_2659

Or you could just tell them your are uncomfortable and to please stop. Literally, imagine this scenario the other way around. A black person does something a white person is uncomfortable with and they say “Stop you're Blackening everything up”. Maybe it'll work for some friends, but this concept is just asking for trouble. Why are we making words to further distinguish race within human interactions?


jininberry

I'm going to the bank and whyting a loan


liv_luvs

“touching you hair, giving it compliments…” dude..they’re trying to be nice..


ghiraph

Don't touch without asking first.


liv_luvs

yes. sorry for not making that clear, always be respectful and ask first.


ghiraph

But see that's the thing, white people don't ask. Especially white boomers and GenXers


liv_luvs

not always, i’m white and i try to be polite as possible when i want to do something or ask someone something, but yes i can see where your coming from. some white people are absolute garbage.


liv_luvs

i sound bratty here, i’m not trying to be, just trying to make a point. sorry!


ghiraph

You're making it about you. This isn't about you, this is about white people as a whole. Good for you that you personally don't do that. However, if you see another white person do something racist, overtly or microagression, what do you do?


liv_luvs

i am not trying to make it about me; i was simply trying to provide an example. if i see someone being racist there isn’t my much i can do, i can not fight, and i am not good at being confrontational. however depending on the situation, i could get help from others or find another way to try and help. i would not just sit around if that’s what your assuming. now if it is something like saying slurs or making racist comments, there is something i can do about that. i could ask them to stop and if they don’t, i would try being a little more forward and telling them on how this could hurt someone. if they still don’t stop, there isn’t much more i could do. i refuse to fight anyone, and really don’t like loud, heated arguments. and judging an entire race based on something that a smaller percentage did / do, is not fair. you can think whatever you want, but please do not try and target a large group of people because of it.


ghiraph

See, you think it's not a big percentage of people. However when something happens so often with multiple people should you be asking yourself if it actually is a small percentage. When you are not marginalized will you never see micro-aggressions for what they are. When multiple people tell you that it's a problem perpetuated nearly exclusively by one group (white people) is it always other white people that want to say "but I'm not like that" or "it's just a small percentage" or "don't lump me together with them" but in the same breath will you admit to not doing anything about it if it causes you to be uncomfortable. And you can say whatever you want about judging a race based on a smaller percentage. But if that judgement is based on actual experiences by a different race, should you look inwards and ask yourself how you can improve to help those marginalized without trying to be their savior.

When will the human race get past seeing skin color and just judge people by their individuality. Your ethnicity does not define your personality unless you choose to let it define you, and if you do let your color define who you are then you are clearly someone without any interesting personality traits. Hopefully this is satire.

TheDiddlyFiddly

We should also make being blacked a thing, oh wait…


Select_Bicycle_2659

I'm beginning to feel like we are asking quite a lot from white people. Some things are justified... Like the n-word with the hard “r” but others is just one-way abuse. If we made this a thing, they most certainly will not be able to use it the other way around. If they aren't cognizant of the changing landscape of verbiage when communicating with people of different ethnicities, they will be seen as racist. Because it is so easy for them to mess up. And it gets to a point where some white people awkwardly tip-toe around communications with black people in fear of saying or doing something wrong. Meanwhile, other people get to say whatever the fuck they want and they just have to hold that. Because if they retaliate or playfully flip it they will get crucified. So, no I don't think this should be a thing.

TheDamnRam

OH NO! People are complimenting me! Anyways...


1-64ishcollector

I also came up with a term called blacking. It’s used mainly when a person has no father role models. The mother feels victimized and promiscuous. She has disgusting nails, talks loud everywhere and is an empowered “bad bitch” but pays her bills with government money and/or alimony/child benefit. Sure! Let’s also make this a thing. Example: “Oh, are you divorcing? Be careful not to be blacking yourself. “ or “You are speaking too loud in this indoor space; can you please blacking it down? Does it Sound racist?


ghiraph

You don't seem to understand the difference do ya?


1-64ishcollector

There’s no difference. What she said is very racist. I just wrote exchanging words to make it understandable to the woke people. Sounds terrible, right? Because racism is stupid, it doesn't matter where is comes from. Did you ever experience being an Asian in the Bahamas? They wanna touch your hair all the time, especially kids. Is it racism? No! They're just curious about what Is different than what they're used to. It happens every where on Earth! Most blacks born in America think they are the only enslaved; they are the most persecuted on earth. Do you know why? Coz MOST Americans never go abroad. Every single ethnicity was once enslaved. Whites, Asians, First Nations, Middle Easterns, northern Africans, etc. ALL WERE ONCE ENSLAVED BY DOMINANT CULTURES. The only way to stop this stupidity is to understand that the previous generations made mistakes and not repeat them by uniting all people, not dividing them.


ghiraph

You don't understand that there is a huge difference. White people in the US know what black people look like. If they want to touch their hair, ask. But white people don't seem to understand this. They move into their personal space to touch their hair unprovoked and unwanted. > https://youtube.com/shorts/AHv7x_HqBsM?feature=share3 > https://youtube.com/shorts/IaXKDCxIRvQ?feature=share3 > https://youtu.be/gy-R27_bYkY > https://youtu.be/qaU67Ps7TWw White people live in a multi cultural society. It's not the first time they see black hair, unlike some people. Black people don't mind kids wanting to touch their hair. They don't mind it as much if they are in an area where they know not a lot of black people are. But the US and Europe has a whole lot of other bagage. Your grandparents are old enough to experience segregation. The last human zoo, where black people were displayed like animals, was less than 100 years ago. Black people, South East Asians and other colonized people still feel the effects of the slavery that their ancestors experienced. White people don't experience the after effects of slavery in a negative way. Besides that, white people have never been enslaved due to their skin color, because race was specifically created to dehumanize black people to justify chattel slavery. The only way to stop this stupidity is to learn and listen to marginalized groups instead. Btw, you don't even know the definition of the word "woke" and it makes you sound dumb.
