And in what world does Sade have the same skin tone as Halsey? You can clearly see her black ancestry, Halsey looks completely white. So Wentworth Miller and Pete Wentz are black men then? Let’s just ignore the fact that they benefit from white privilege and wouldn’t be racially profiled and killed by cops like actual black people. You’re so right, 75%+ white Halsey, Wentworth Miller and Pete Wentz are all black people. Wow! Rihanna can be considered white too since she’s 25% white remember? Wow! Her father is not “literally black” hun, he’s half white himself and that’s why she looks completely white. No one is failing to acknowledge her biracial/mixed status, I’m failing to acknowledge her nonexistent black status because she is NOT and never will be black. So...if Mariah is mixed how the **** is Halsey not mixed? Who the hell made you the black police. As a black person you are offensive as ****.

FreeXone Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 The reason it matters so much is the history of it all!!! You act like the one drop rule never existed. If white people would have found out Hasley had one drop years ago she would be ostarciszed and thrown out and lynched just like any black person. People act like light. Her ancestry is still tied to the black struggle in America so in AMERICA she should count if she is willing to admit her ethnic background. You act like she got the damn hit by saying she was a Nubian queen. Not the case. But in the grand scheme she would have still been tied to the struggle decades ago had it been exposed she came from a "negro" mixed father.

It’s 2019 It doesn’t matter how Halsey would’ve been treated 50 years ago, that was then and this is now. The fact that you and other Americans don’t see the problem in still following the racist one drop rule dumb white people created to make black people seem inferior is beyond me.

The point is she is tied to the history and has the genetic background. Based on you every damn African American is mixed then of that's the damn case. So how many drops you need to be black and how many drops you need to be white? You are adding nothing but more fuel to the fire. Her father is noticeably black. That counts to me.

It's so odd how people gloss over the fact that we define race by one's outward appearance. It's always been that way. We're not looking at her fathers parents to dictate whether or not her father is black, we can tell just by looking at him It was always so weird to me that people claimed Mariah was black or claim that "she has black features" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contrary to what you are arguing here, there are plenty of people who look as white as Halsey (who doesn't look "fully" white, IMO), but has a larger black makeup than she does. Do you not consider those who look like Halsey but actually has 50% (or roughly) black heritage... black? I don't think either arguments are as simple and open and shut as y'all are trying to make it out to be. If Halsey identifies black or relates to her black heritage more, then that is her choice. And stop with this "US vs. the world" thing. It's only dumb to you because you cannot relate. The US is actually the most diverse place in the world, so race is always a complex discussion here.

Y'all love to pick and ****ing choose. Mariah’s skin is not white like Halseys, it’s not picking or choosing it’s the fact that Halsey does not experience the same treatment as Other black women who are clearly black.
