Black people have always called each other names when related to skin complexion and features.
"Get yo Black ass in this house."
"Keep it up, I'm going to slap the Black off you."
"Stay out that sun so you won't get any darker/blacker."
"You Black and ugly."
etc.....

Your mom was in her feelings and trying to hurt your dad. It wasn't right but I think it was more emotional than anti-black. IMHO.

My favorite is "All i have to do is stay black and die!" Black people self- flagellate in the worse ways...and its a terrible thing for kids to be constantly hearing this. Its gotta mess with their self-esteem....and really provides another mental hurdle for them to get past as adults.

You're saying Africans don't do that?

No Africans don't. It was black americans who came up with that bs ''african booty scratcher''
Referring to blacks from the Islands as ''coconut heads'' Don't even try to take it there. And y'all wonder why them blacks from Africa & the Caribbean Islands don't really like y'all.

btw I know y'all damn sure get pissed once them Africans refer to y'all ''cotton pickers'' Once they started coming back with the dissin' y'all can't take it. hahahaa

You know African Americans call other African Americans african booty scratchers (ABS), right? I'm dark and from the South and I was certainly called a ABS as a kid. I don't it against the people who said it because they were kids.

Everything seems to be ignorant and hypocritical to Gen Z. Also the need to call people out for everything is irritating.

I'm not surprised your mom told you off. Who do you think you are anyway?
I'm somebody who knows how to express my feelings regardless of my generation. I do this so in the near future I'm not angrily pushing my way throughout society with resentment and bitterness. Just because you on a individual basis, can't express your feelings doesn't mean others can't.

LMAOOOOOO y’all don’t even like yourselves or you would stay your proud asses home. And sorry, but Black Americans will never give a sh!t about what a vagabond thinks of them.

You're also anti black, bye.
No, I am not.

You were so quick to say her mom must be "light skint"

Who brought skin complexion into question? YOU.

I'm so tired of the performative activists and fake woke.

If only people would apply 1/4th of that energy in bettering themselves they wouldn't be so pressed as to how other people run their lives.

Stop with the self righteousness.

Why are you so oppressor-focused?
You are worse than white supremacists. Giving so much weight to being called a monkey.
No wonder it's so easy for white people to get under your skin. Constant struggle status.

Clearly, you are one of these respectability politic folks or faux woke.

White supremacy does not dictate how I talk to anyone. I will call a black, white, or Asian person a downlow dirty monkey if I choose to

I am old. Calling another black person a gorilla is anti-black.

Period.

You may call out Generation Z for being entitled and disrespectful. You may even share that you have called other black people gorillas, monkeys etc.

But it is still anti-black. End of story. Her mother was wrong.

This isn't up for discussion babe. You're obviously ignorant and upset because you got called out. Are you even black?

Worse than yt supremacy? I see you're a snow possum masking around as a black woman.

The lies that people tell themselves. I’ve been mad at people before but never would I think or refer to a black person as a "monkey" or any animal. Their behinds are showing.

Both my parents are still very much together. All he did was move her food and she went on a cursing rampage. Please do not associate me with those "white woke liberals" on social media.


She might be going through menopause. Just explain to her (in a respectful manner) why her words were inappropriate.

Not that it matters but I’ve heard schoolmates call people Magilla Gorilla from the cartoon(?) There are so many hurtful things we say to each other and don’t stop to wonder why.
OP, you were right in calling her out.

How does your dad feel about this?
He doesn't care. He said himself that he regrets getting with her too. He even wanted her to abort me. And according to my mom me and my brother were both accidents. I think it's a case of two people that were just irresponsible with their bodies, and feel no remorse for the havoc they raise.

The statement means that the only definite things you must do in life is be yourself and die.

Ok well i always felt it has a negative connotation that being black put in the same bucket as dying. I Could be wrong but that statement suggest that there is something negative about being black and that if one had the choice they would not "stay black". Again maybe i'm looking at it wrong.

My family has a tendency of doing fµcked up colorist sh!t like this. They laugh at the fact that we can't see a dark skinned person when we turned the lights off at my aunt's baby shower and can only see his teeth and eyes. They go in people's noses. They are so colorist and nasty spirited. That's why I keep my distance from that side of the family. My mom is also guilty of some of this sh!t too. I always check her when she goes too far.

I've never heard of this either to be honest. Black Americans might say--"...with your monkey a**" or something like that but calling one another gorillas?

I've personally never seen this and I've seen a LOT. Not saying it can't happen but how common is this?
Yes, "with yo monkey ass" is common. But gorilla? Naw, never heard that one. Honestly, it doesn't seem like the mom is black, to be honest. That's not something Black Americans call each other.

That's crazy to me. I'm sorry he felt that way with regards to the abortion and hopefully he's treated you like his princess as he should. They should not have stayed together. They don't like or love each other so move on.

That's the thing.....nobody else says that. I have never heard another ethnicity couple the unfortunate inevitability of dying with their ethnicity and equate them in such a way.

Why is that always the go to? I’m white now?

And nah, I’m definitely not upset at ALL. I don’t understand why people like you continue to get triggered by white peoples sh!t. Get over it. Why put weight on something so trivial?

But let’s agree to disagree.

Now you know if op said her father was the one throwing around anti black comments like this, you would have called it for what it is.

And some of yall swear up and down that black mothers are incapable of self hate.

I never understood why fonts always said to stay out of the Black America & Black Diaspora Forums. Seeing that barely hitting page 2 mess had already conspired in this thread, I can understand why now.
