Please read the rules before jumping in, your POV is intresting but we work by discussion, and that is how edits are made. If you continue to revert the work of others you will be blocked for 24 hours.--HalaTruth(ሀላካሕ) 00:09, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Racist language
[edit]"offensive nonsense from living bios. There's no agreement that the son of a mulatto is black. I find the one drop rule quite racist" I would like you to read what you wrote, you have said to call him Black is "offesnive" you have insulted him by calling him the "son of a mulatto" you are new here and should take it easy. your pov is clearly a racist one. one drop rule may be offensive but so is your horrible language where being "black" is a bad thing.--HalaTruth(ሀላካሕ) 00:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
You might find calling him a son of a mulatto offensive but I'm not the one pushing the racist one drop rule in the article. History tells us that this rule was invented because black blood was considered such a stigma that having even one bit of black ancestry was enough to stigmatize one as black. Only part black people were victimized and oppressed by this rule. Every other mixed race person was free to be multi-racial.
I didnt add it to the page, learn about Wiki, i am protecting it against your reversions without debate. Your language is loaded and filled with hatred for African people. Haile Berry has a lot more than one drop of African blood, if you understand dominance you will know that the dominate genes make her physically "black" i.e. by black i mean if Miss Berry walked around Addis Ababa where i grew up, she would be considered African. However if she was in Arabia she would be considered Ethiopia, or Somalia, Habasaha, so it isnt a one-drop rule, most of teh world sees race, see being the key word. what do you look like. in the UK even mixed people are still seen as of the Black race and most are proud of this an identify with Black culture, If you hate your Africaness that is your choice, you dont need to be mixed to hate yourself. Bob Marley has a white father, who would consider him anything other than African? most of the world see these people as African, genetically no one is going to be half white half black, genes are racial they are just features, white skin or black skin. Mrs Berry has a "black" face, nobody knew she was mixed until she said it, had she said nothing no one would know, Vanessa Williams isnt mixed and she has green eyes and light skin. all of these factors r critical. Al Moudi in Arabia is Arab but a Black Arab. like Marley is African Caribbean.--HalaTruth(ሀላካሕ) 00:50, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Why are you accusing me of hating my African heritage? To call myself black would be to deny the existence of my white mother and then I would be accused of hating my European heritage. It's possible I would be considered black in some countries but where I grew up people always assumed I was white. I would constantly correct them an say I am mixed race. Now I am married to a black woman and so my new born son will be raised to be black because he has 3 black grandparents and only 1 white one. But my older brother married a white woman so his kids are white because they have 3 white grandparents and only 1 black one. But me personally, I'm mixed race. I'm no where near as black looking as my dad is and no where near as white looking as my mom is. You can argue that black genes dominate but I see no evidence, it's more likely that you've just been brain washed by the 1 drop rule. Keep in mind that in many many countries the one drop rule does not apply and they have what's called the reverse one drop rule where a drop of white blood makes you white. You write from a very U.S. centric perspective. And black may dominate over white but Arab features are pretty dominant too which is obvious from looking at Mr. Al Amoudi. As a child I tried to make friends with black kids but they called me "whitey" and told me to hang out with the white kids where I belonged. But the truth I belonged in neither group because I am mixed...Vexperiential
Vexperiential dont think i dont understand you, i do, i cant even blame you, you are clearly a product of your environment. And it isnt fair at all. Had you been raised in my family trust me you would be Malcolm X clone. there is no thing as Arab features. I am an African and i have no confusion about my genes and we Africans have all kinds of features, even within the same family, one brother has straight hair the other has kinky hair, all colors as well. same parents. I cant deny the one drop rule has created this issue but at the end of the day, i say it is about culture. If you have African blood and choice an African culture then join the club. If like Condi you want to be part of another club, or the tiger woods club, good luck. we shouldnt push people, But when you get famous people we will call you black , mixed but they will never call you white, blame slavery. Personally i am proud to be African but that is me. anyway race is a social contruction, culture is what matters most i think.--HalaTruth(ሐላቃህ) 02:23, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Hey
[edit]Hello, are you Minorcorrections? You edit a lot like him. Did you lose your password for your old account or something? — ዮም | (Yom) | Talk • contribs • Ethiopia 02:12, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

no I am not. but I did read his comments on the talk page...Vexperiential
You are new take it easy and learn the rules
[edit]This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Black billionaires article. This is not a forum for general discussion about the article's subject.
i have included the above notice for you so that you understand the discussion about Sub-Sahara Africa has no place on this talk page, at least not to the degree it was being discussed. As a editor we can thus move content if it violates this rule. We cannot discuss any topic anywhere, Ethiopia and genes has nothing to do with improving the article and has been moved, do not undo my edits take time to learn Wiki.Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines--HalaTruth(ሐላቃህ) 21:31, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Black billionaires
[edit]I'm not sure what you are referring to in making the comments on my talk page. I didn't create a black billionaires category, nor was I thinking of doing so or planning to do so. Good Ol’factory (talk) 13:40, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I have not threatening you, unless you can provided references stating he is multiracial stop disrupting the article or you will be blocked according to Wikipedia policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenwivjoi (talk • contribs) 13:53, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
There is no one drop rule issue here this is an article that talk about black billionaires everyone on there has black ancestry. You are the one making agenda base edits. whether they are mixed or not they have Black ancestry and the article states it for those who are mixed. If you want to argue about the one drop rule that's your personal issue the article does not refer to that. It's just stating fact of their known ancestry. I mentioned it before if you can not sources your claim stop with the disruptive behavior because you will ended up getting yourself blocked according to Wikipedia guidelines — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenwivjoi (talk • contribs) 20:28, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
