Why would a person ask if you’re black if they can tell that you are black?

You look mixed race?

Being Black can mean many things. For example are you born in Africa? Or just a bloke in America with mixed Black races?

[Asker]

But why would they ask if you were black that lack any sense

[ClassicDropout]

Do you mean in person or online? Honestly, people have this weird obsession and fixation on black skin. I get put off immediately when people ask if I'm black or ask racially charged questions

[Asker]

In real life I’m light skinned but still if they can tell that you are black why ask regardless of skin color (

[ClassicDropout]

Yeah it's weird. In their eyes, being black is something you have to "admit." They just want to make you say it for some strange reason.

[Asker]

But they are black themselves

I've a friend who has very dark skin and jet black hair. People think she's Indian or Mexican.

[phraseology]

The same reason they ask people's pronouns, wokeism.

You may have other facial features or skin tone that don't scream black

[Anonymous]

bcs maybe wonder whether you are a mixed race or not

[Asker]

Ok they need to ask if you’re mix not if you’re black.

This is him problem ı dont know but can be because of scared to be branded as a racist

[exitseven]

[ThebestIndian]

[Asker]
