Episode 4 - My Thoughts On Tyla Calling Herself Colored Instead Of Black

Author: Goddess Asha Mariama July 6, 2024 Duration: 1:04:14
In this episode, I’m gonna be talking about the controversy centering around Tyla when it comes to calling herself colored versus being called black. I don’t think a lot of people in America who call themselves Black understand that there are more people that call themselves African whatever their nationality is calling themselves black. I don’t think people understand the stigma when it comes to calling yourself black and the behavior that comes with that. There are a lot of people that are in different countries that happen to be of African descent calling themselves black. For example, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica do not call themselves black. There are many people in the islands that do not call themselves black. just because African descent people in America choose to call themselves. Black does not mean the rest of the world has to call themselves black if they choose not to. I don’t understand why Black people don’t understand that just because you choose to call yourself black does not mean everybody else choose to call themselves that. We also gonna talk about the behavior and the actions that come with yourself that a lot of people do not understand negative, So today. I’m gonna take y’all a history lesson, the word colored and the word black I hope that this gives people a better understanding why it shouldn’t even matter what you call yourself.
