Referring to a group of African American individuals in a racist manner. Unlike the more socially acceptable versions of the word, such as "the black community" or "a black person".
1. Officer O'Flanagan- So, when you see a group of blacks loitering shirtless on a sidewalk, make sure you call for backup immediately.
2. Training officer- What do you say to a group of young shirtless African Americans who are walking down the sidewalk together?
Officer in training- "Hey y'all blacks better quit loitering 'fore I get the swat team here!!"
Training officer- *nodding in agreement* Perfect.

"That guy is definitely black focusing on Bojack Horseman."

A "Pretendian" is a term often used by Indians to describe someone who falsely claims Indigenous ancestry or cultural identity without any legitimate basis. This term is often applied to individuals who disrespectfully appropriate/change Indigenous cultures or traditions for personal gain (in an effort to seem more exotic or interesting than they really are.)
Similar to a “pretendian”, Black Americans have a play on the term "Foundational Black Americans" (FBAs) — "Fossilized Black Americans."
Just like “Pretendians”, Fossilized Black Americans cling to any minuscule amount of African DNA remnant from their ancestors, to try to legitimately claim that they are part of the black identity in the present (Even if authentic, dark-skinned Black Americans don’t see them as black; Even when they don’t look black; Even when they’re extremely distanced from blackness and black culture)
They are fossils of the former identity that their ancestors embodied.

Interaction with The Problem Child who identifies them self by wearing a black coloured safety helmet.
Tom: "Hey, what's up with Olz? He's running towards that brick wall head first without wearing a helmet again?!"
Jerry: "He's just been black-hatted."
Tom: "Damn man. That explains it. We should pray for him."
