" I find it especially annoying when non-blacks talk about how ‘white’ Obama’s politics are, or how he isn’t really Black. I find it annoying because how can you, as a non-black, person really regulate what being black is? How can anyone? Being mixed (with black) this is a trigger for me. Too often people are quick to define your race for you. Or feel entitled to tell you who you are. If you’re black, you’re black, you’re black. The way you behave or present yourself doesn’t change who you are. It’s insulting and ignorant. If you got issues with Obama’s politics, speak to it specifically. Call out the policy or behavior or action. But just don’t say dumb ass shit like ‘Obama may be Black but his politics are white’. WTF does that mean anyway? "
