I'm sorry. I assumed, for no justifiable reason, that you agreed with BIH, the author of the article I was commenting on. If I understand her, She was claiming that society devalued African-American women who looked African-American, because the blond white woman is society's ideal of beauty. I was suggesting that this would change as white women decide that resembling African Americans would be the new standard of beauty, and that this would help solve the problem she was describing. If SHE had responded to my comment the way you had, she would have been contradicting herself the way I describe: Criticizing people for both liking the way she looks and not liking the way she looks. But because you have not internalized this standard of beauty, my comment completely misses the mark when applied to you. Again, I apologize for my confusion.

There is nothing inconsistent in your position, as I understand it. You want white people to behave like white people, whatever that means, which doesn't leave much room for fun or creativity for white people. Black People have dominated American Culture since the days of Stephen Foster, and have not benefitted financially from this any where near as much as they should have. But I think you make that problem worse, not better, when you insist that nobody except black people are allowed to participate in the creations of creative black people. If it weren't for racism, there would be no "Black culture", there would just be American culture. It seems to me that drawing a sharp line between American and African-American culture enables and perpetuates the racism that created that divide.
