Historically, the most hated and oppressed humans on Earth. Viewed in a Jamal Wallace from Finding Forrester sort of way if educated. Viewed as non-black if able to achieve positive-iconic status. How paradoxical and mercurial the definition of the black person is...
Illustration of definition of black people according to non-blacks is exemplified in the following scene from "Do the Right Thing."
Spike: Who's your favorite basketball player?
Turturro: Magic Johnson.
Spike: Who's your favorite movie star?
Turturro: Eddie Murphy.
Spike: Who's your favorite rock star? Prince!
Turturro: Bruce. Bruce!
Spike: All you ever talk about is nigger this and nigga that, and all your favorite people are so-called niggas.
Turturro: They're different. Magic, Eddie, Prince, they're not niggas. I mean, they're not black. I mean, let me explain myself... they're not really black... I mean, they're black but not really, they're more than black... It's different.
Spike: It's different?
Turturro: Yeah, to me, it's different.
--> And that's the paradoxical nature of being a black person!

When you think of black people, what do you think of? Do you think of someone who steals from your home, speaks improper grammar and relies on well-fare? Well, you obviously don't see us as people, you see us as thieves. White people have stolen the most out of all of the races. Sure, the ghetto makes us look bad, but not all of us live in the ghetto. Heck, Eminem lived in the slums, and he is white! None of you white people try to think of that, do you? So many people discriminate against us, even other blacks. Fuck all of you racists
Racist: I hate black people.
Racist 2: I know, I hate how they always eat chicken and drink kool-aid.

-A group of people who have greatly contributed to society but don't get respect for it. Instead they are looked upon as niggers and violent thieves with low intelligence instead of equals with a genuine capacity for great exploits. They feel they are oppressed by society, but on average, they do not emphasize their potential. Therefore other races see them as inferior but they refuse to acknowledge the fact that were are all humans. All the same.
Black, white, yellow, brown, purple? These are colors. But we are PEOPLE. Black people need to step up.

Most beautiful and strong minded people on the planet. Sometimes the most hated and mistreated people. Able to stay in the sun for long periods of time. Beautiful curly hair. Petty white teeth and the best cookers.
Black people are so beautiful.

A race of people most known for creating the oldest civilizations on earth. Perhaps these people are best known for their construction of the pyramids and their uncanny understanding of science, physics, mathematics and social construction during ancient times. During ancient times these people were known as Moors, Egyptians, and Aboriginal. Black people are also known to be somewhat higher evolved physically. Black people have melanin in their skin and 9-ether hair which protects them from the sun damage and other harsh elements. Also, they are usually bigger, faster, and stronger than all other races minus a few exceptions. However, modern times has been much more unfavorable to these people. Western Civilization raided, pillaged, and enslaved these people in an attempt to steal their vast knowledge and displace them from their true historical roots.
White American: If black people are so dumb why do they have the oldest civilization on earth and how did they build the pyramids?
Black American:Where did you hear that at?
White American: Oh never mind its probably inaccurate.
Black American:Hell yeah, fuck them ancient niggas

black people is a term used to refer to anyone of sub saharan african descent. however not all black people have a link to africa. many were brought over to the americas during the slave trade centuries ago and their families have been there ever since. i’m black and some of these definitions are actually disgusting. not every black person likes fried chicken, not every black person is a criminal, not every black person is lazy, not every black person yells racial slurs to white people. most of us don’t even gotta problem with white people. also there’s a lotta ignorance here. i saw someone say “most black people aren’t even descended from slaves” not knowing that’s the reason loads of black people got european names. black comes in loads of different shades. you got drake (even tho he mixed) all the way down to lebron. black people been oppressed for centuries but you pricks don’t even listen. the only reason we gotta high crime rate is cah you pushed us to poverty and for most of us it’s the only way we can get out. and some of you ain’t even just tryna defend racism you just straight up yelling racist shit. tell me to calm down and calling me a snowflake dawg you just told me go back to africa. so sure go call me a nigger. i’m a nigga and proud of it
