Not like “I went to school with one” but have had an actual friendship?

I’ve had a couple of conversations recently where people have confidently said things about the Black community that are ridiculously incorrect. The kind of shit where you can tell they grew up in a very white community and learned about Black history as a college freshman.

Disclaimer: I am white, but I grew up in a Black neighborhood. I was one of 3 white kids in my elementary school lol, including my brother.

    Do you actually know any African Americans? I mean, surely they’re just Americans?

    Are you like a Eurasian Steppes American or something? 😂

      It’s ok, one day you’ll grow up and realize how cringe it is to pretend to not understand something just so you can do a “well ACKSHUALLY”

        I’m near pension age, doughboy. Why can you not just forget about calling them African just because they’re black? I’d be fuming

          Guess you won’t grow up then. Sad.
