Ahavati said:Look, we are all ONE species: homo sapiens, the last surviving known human. Before there were at least 15 ( to date ) that are now extinct. That we can agree on. However, within that species are various cultural distinctions from Black, Native American, White, Asian, Latino, at al who all have a right to their prideful heritage and customs.
No one has a right to strip anyone of their rightful birth. I am not Black; I am White. Neither am I Asian; I am White. Nor am I Latina; I am white. Despite my education and knowledge of facts, I am STILL also CLUELESS about what it's like to be anything but White in America ( or anywhere else ) because I am White. But, I have an idea of their deep suffering because I have witnessed it and I have educated myself. Despite it all, I will still never know what it FEELS like to receive a look from a racist for being Black, because I am not Black.
And until White people get off their high #Alllives/Bluelivesmatter horse, they will never be able to begin the needed dialogue for equality because they want to counter the real issue and control the narrative by diverting #Blacklivesmatter with anything else but BLACK, i.e. - All, Blue, Love, and so on and so on.
STOP. SHUTUP. LISTEN. AND FEEL. This is not about YOU. It's about THEM. The first step to unity is a humble acceptance and willingness to listen to another's pain without changing the narrative. Just listen.

And Ahavati , your post was great...just one point...
"Look, we are all ONE species: homo sapiens, the last surviving known human"
True , yet not fully / only...
There are many with Neanderthal Dna remaining...just pointing that out with respect...
"The proportion of Neanderthal-inherited genetic material is about 1 to 4 percent [later refined to 1.5 to 2.1 percent] and is found in all non-African populations. It is suggested that 20 percent of Neanderthal DNA survived in modern humans, notably expressed in the skin, hair and diseases of modern people.

I'm thrilled to witness *almost everyone* making great use of this thread by speaking your minds rather than complaining you are being censored from voicing any opinions at DUP.
And , just to show information continually updates ( as it should )

Reverse movement : from north to south migration , and blending ( as indicated thus far )

Oh for FUCK'S SAKE. I am WELL AWARE of evolution and interbreeding of fucking Neanderthals and goddamn Denisovans with modern humans and so on. But they are all fucking extinct except US.
Can we get the hell back to #Blacklivesmatter?!

Ahavati said:We all have DNA from whatever ancestors we evolved from, BW; however, they are ALL extinct but US. . .homo sapiens. Do we have to split hairs about this?
Not trying to argue Ahavati...
No need for frustration
Just read the articles , if you choose...
Says Asians have up to twenty percent Neanderthal Dna
( than Europeans )
That is *more* than just splitting hairs to me...
It is adding truth to a thread...more truth to assist all
Like you , I like to bring information to the site...
*That* I will never back away from...
Shows I love the site like you do...

Prideful white heritage is what you are defending.
You are as red-blooded as the Africans who made you eons ago.
You are black and unless you disrespect your ancestry you will agree.
Make a distinction that excludes color so there are no more minorities. Abolish it. Are you George Floyd - or do you believe census takers etc reveal these things?
Protect! Blindfold the law! Now!
No one has a right to strip anyone of their rightful birth.
So Privilege color is your right?? And you want that on job applications and census taking?
SHAME.

What a privilege. What a lofty vantage point. Take it down. Getting on a knee and apologies are not enough.
Seperatist.
Eventually BLM will figure you out.
And until White people get off their high #Alllives/Bluelivesmatter horse,
Tell that to black people with dark skin screaming it at pale idiots. Don’t make it white rhetoric. That’s intolerant AND ignorant!
they will never be able to begin the needed dialogue for equality because they want to counter the real issue and control the narrative by diverting #Blacklivesmatter with anything else but BLACK, i.e. - All, Blue, Love, and so on and so on.
If you are serious, stop being white on you license and resume. Admit you came from Africa, too!

I did listen. You ignore black women like Candice Owen.

I’ve been thinking about something. It’s Pride month. I’m noticing an absence of rainbows and such. So I contacted some of my local LGTBQA+ folks, and they all said they KNOW the struggle of our black, brown, (not white) friends and family. Right now, there is something more important going on in America. Those that normally would be shouting “Happy Pride Month!” are now shouting “Black Lives Matter!”

They should stop apologizing and say humbly, I am black. #lovematters more than privilege.
