Who was the person that posted that in here? I wanted to comment on it, but now it disappeared. Or did it?

Has anyone here *not* been told that you look like a celebrity?
Or whether you have a doppelgänger?

It’s bad enough that people dislike Black people but at least acknowledge Black history and how it applies today. Even more annoying having to correct everyone and then they just don’t care 🥴…especially nonBlack people (looking at you White Latinos/Hispanics).
Yeah, I’m aware it’s a trending lexicon. No one is dismissing your existence nor experience with being white presenting. Just know that if you’re letting people know about your nonWhite background, you’re not “passing”.
EDIT: Passing is a connotation to hiding Blackness (or in a broader case, your nonWhite background).
Presenting is when you acknowledge being phenotypically white while making people aware of your nonWhite heritage.
Assumed is when people think you’re “fully” or “mostly (like more than 3/4 genetic wise ig)” white upon first glance.
