Who is black


            After watching “who is black in America” I felt different things. I understood How some of the people felt, but I also felt angry at some of them. People in the video were sad and mad because they were tired of being ask what they were. Some off the people were also sad because they felt like being dark skin was ugly, and nasty. The people wanted to be light skinned, or just couldn’t accept they were black. This made me mad because some of those people were being rude, and plain dumb. I understand that maybe they didn’t like when people ask what race they were, but to say that they are ugly, and nasty for their color is just wrong. How can someone say black is ugly and nasty? No, black isn’t ugly nor nasty. I understand when the little kids say that because this world isn’t right, and is getting kids the wrong idea, but grown people are suppose to understand now. Just because they feel ugly doesn’t mean every one who is dark skin is ugly. This is a problem with their self-esteem, not with the actual color. If they don’t want to accept what they are just let it be, but don’t bring some one else down.
