80 years ago, people fought hard to prevent segregation. Now, they are a Ty trying to segregate themselves. It’s totally asinine. Raven is 100% on the money ❤
No one fought to prevent segregation. Black people fought to end it, or at the very least allow black people to exist with the same rights given to white people. But in regards to wanting to separate ourselves, that's somewhat true. While under segregation black people worked with each other better, and under one accord. Segregation ended that
My husband who is American nationalized adopted Seoul, South Korea orphan from South Korea orphanage. He does fully feels exactly same way as Raven. He is only just American ; not Korean American. I am just generations of birth born American myself ; not European American.
@@pamjarvis2318That’s ‘different’ mam. What Raven is saying is obviously true cause she was ‘born’ in America. Your situation uh, the kid is in fact South Korean, regardless of his feelings (He wasn’t born here, he’s growing up here sure but ‘technically’ he is South Korean by birth still). Just saying
❤🎉 Awesome ! We don't say Asian American, German American, British American, Puerto Rican American, This Is America. If you are a legal citizen you are an American Citizen. I am 90% Scottish+10% Apache 3rd generation American. I was born and raised here. I am American. We are All One of God's Creation 😂😂
Nah that's cringe, I'm American and "blessed to be Asian!/White/Mexican" if a white person can't say it it's all SEPARATIST CRINGE racism self-proclaimed "blessed skin is black" woman.
No doubt. You're right; Oprah was stirring up her "victimhood" fanbase. "You get to be outraged" "You get to be outraged" "You ALL get to be outraged......." Somebody get Harry and Megan.... It's time for a SPECIAL on Oprah!
LMAO because the woke machine don't want to loose the narrative, we have to be minorities, Africans Americans and all these other cute pet names they wanna call us, colored people, latinX and all this weird shit lmao.
A friend of ours born and raised in Africa would tell the guys playing soccer on the weekends, 'You're not African/American, you are American. I'm African.' He knew, what he knew. Just like this young lady.
@@claudiahurd912 We're the only country in the world w/ that mentality. I get it, but our greatest gift will ultimately become our greatest curse bc of mindsets like your own. It is OK to appreciate what your ancestors went thru to get here, but at the end of the day, if your parents came here LEGALLY, AND you were born here, then by default you are an American citizen & therfore AMERICAN! Why is this so difficult..??
We can all still be united and be different cultures, someone do some homework for her since she is lazy and tell her where she is from. It's not that hard
Bs. Devils have labeled us. Let somebody go to war and die or get captured. They start making these Announcement stating 5 American have been captured. Who you think they Talking about. They aren't talking bout her type of American..sorry beau. Thee announcement is for yt American.
@@englanduk6131well her saying Louisiana actually makes more sense because imo the only real difference in cultures between America is states at most, for example in Louisiana u have creole/cajun, gumbo the mask, it’s a culture of its own and same for Texas, but in America it’s a habit of saying yt blk Asian and nationalities, which are technically not a race, all the time. I never understood if I dated a white lady from Texas, that’s automatically a different culture. An actual culture difference imo would be a lady from Africa or Europe. I promise u if we had actual race logic in America for example some places consider 75%+ euro or Afro full but it’s multi generational mixed/mulatto (middle ground boxes), America would realize how many mixed ppl it is in today’s time. It’s plenty of ppl like raven identifying as blk definitely mgm(hodgetwins/stephen curry/beyonce/michael b Jordan/dave Chappell) but of course they automatically blk. Ppl also say they don’t like one drop rules on both parties but only consider ppl mixed directly from a parent identifying as yt. That’s also y ppl identify nationality as race in America because many mgm but it’s no middle ground in America and maybe if we understood we all fall back into boxes as a stupid social construct, maybe we would be better off. I have cousins with a white great grandparents and dna test 80%+ African, they still should accept their mix at that point even though they blk by the race view. But I also have family 60/40 75/25 all very mgm and identify as blk from Louisiana
No, UNITED states citizens; 50 states united by the United States constitution. We are a constitutional federal republic. We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union… The United States constitution. Stop listening to Hollywood and the main stream media.
They would get a really big shock once they see that it was their own people who sold them into slavery 😂 and that most Africans hate black Americans lol
Or at the very least it makes it hard to specify between friends who are black Americans and friends who literally immigrated here from Africa. As a flight attendant it has sort of come up more than I ever thought it would 😅
Ophra is corporation. Separation in important to their goals. Which ppl are the easiest to separate? Black folk. They are easy to work. Just say the word racist and they believe it. Don't even check it out. Without unity we cannot fight them and they know this! That's why they push the trans thing, more separation and the fools are literally separating themselves!!!
Color no scene that’s American to deny deny don’t take accountability or recognize that color of you skin trumps over the content of your character as soon as they see you.
It is certain White Americans who remind Black Americans that they’re not “American”. And that experience as “other” Americans is WHY they identify as “African American”, because it is a term that excludes them from being just “American” not because they don’t want to be just “American”, but because they aren’t allowed to be just “American” by certain White Americans. It’s assuming the identity imposed by others. Some, like Raven, are tired of being excluded from being just “American”, but she’s blaming the wrong people for the “African American” identity. White Americans who view themselves as just “Americans” are largely the ones who created the “African American” identity to exclude Blacks as only Americans. Raven simply doesn’t want to perpetuate the dynamics. But she pushing back against the wrong group. She must push against the those White people that exclude Blacks as Americans.
I don't understand what is so hard about this concept! Your skin color doesn't make you African, European, Asian, Mexican, etc. What makes someone any one of those things is 1. Being BORN there or 2. Living/breathing a specific culture to that region. A typical black American is not African in the most meaningful sense of the label, they are just black Americans most of the time and there ain't nothing wrong with being a black American.
I believe that she's absolutely correct. If I go overseas to Europe, they would label me as American because that's where I come from. Now I can say historically speaking that my ancestors come from Ireland, however, if I go to Ireland, they are not going to say that I'm Irish. They are going to say that I'm American. So that's what I go with.
True say ,am from dominica, not dominica Republic, roseau dominica I have a US passport but in the passport is i am from from roseau dominica US CITIZEN so am a Dominican, PERIOD.
She is American born so she is American she never been in Africa she can't be us. She doesn't know our traditions and customs Many Americans don't like Africans anyways so is offensive to call them African Americans I'm 100% African jungle breed and proud of it
Lol, ye doesn't she interview ppl for a living? Shouldn't she be able to handle ppl saying stuff she doesn't personally agree with? That was embarrassing, she ot all riled and msde a big scene and made her interviewee uncomfortable because of her own worldview 😬 and its not even that controversial, what is Oprah on? 😂🤦🏻♀️
And she's absolutely correct, my family came from Germany, I don't go around calling myself a German American, if you were born and raised in America you are an American.
I have ancestry from 5 different European nations...don't call myself European American. 😂 I can agree we are all American. You don't just forget your heritage and ancestry by not using a hyphenated label.
Same here, I have Mexican ancestry and my parents were born in Texas i think some of my grandparents came from Mexico but I'm not sure. But I was born and raised in America(Texas) and when I'm asked what am,,well I say Texan, but I'm American. I've got friends who parents are from Mexico and seeing what real Mexican culture is to what I thought it was it's so far from each other and made me realize I really don't know what true Mexican culture is, but I know where I'm from and am damn proud.
Same here. Just like people don't refer to themselves as Japanese American or United Kingdom American or Canadian American or Salvador American. It's ridiculous, but it's all been part of their little plan 🤦🏻♀️
The color of her skin is relevant because she exists within a racist system, so her skin color has affected her life. While racism exists, pretending we don’t see race is to pretend racism doesn’t exist, which enables that racism to continue unchecked. It is the privilege of white people to pretend not to see race, because they are only affected by racism in positive ways. They do not benefit from acknowledging it. This isn’t anti-white racism; I’ve said nothing bad about any race of people. I’ve merely described a system. Also, I’m white. At best, “colorblind” is something well-meaning white people pretend to be. At worst, it is abject cowardice and self-service.
money, votes, herding sheep, political influence… its kind of endless, and thats just with race. its for the same reasons companies start pulling up rainbows and changing logos during pride month
Because every white person knows what country their people come from lol none of the white people who came to America had that info systematically stripped from their brain and lineage. That’s why there is a different title for black Americans.
Me? I’m Irish American. I take pride in being a descendant of Irish people and thousand times more than any pride I take in the fact that any of those people were white.
I hope you meant to say I’m an American Irish. If you say Irish American, then that’s what you choose, so why are you in the United States? I don’t say I’m an Italian American, I am an American. I do think it’s great that you have pride in your ancestry.
@@dancoyle6911 What does it matter where our ancestors are from? We are all mixed in this melting pot of this flat realm so assimilate and love thy neighbor because it won't matter WHERE the heck you are from for those who make it into the Kingdom of God! The only thing I'm blesses to be is a Biblical American!
She's right.. People don't walk around saying I'm an Irish American or an Egyptian American, they're just American.. Everybody is from somewhere, but at some point, we're just Americans.. Proud to be here I'm the USA..
Actually everyone identifies as their ethnic group first and foremost unless you're from the south and Midwest where they're trying to create a new white American race, but that'll never make sense. Raven is African American, she doesn't know her roots *because* she's African American. That's part of being of slave ancestry, it's a huge part of her background and story. She just has no idea what she's talking about lol anyone born on the continent America is American. South America, North America, all American. People from USA don't get to own the term American and suddenly turn it into a race sorry
Exactly! I’m Australian, and so were my parents, born here on Aussie turf. My grandparents on my mother’s side were from England & Scotland. My grandparents on my father’s side were from Germany. At no point do I ever refer to myself as a German/English/Scottish/Australian; I’m an Australian! ‘We are One, but we are many.’ ❤ Gotta love when Oprah didn’t get the response she wanted to hear, nor any reaction, so she put it back on Raven saying, “What do you REALLY mean by saying that?” Meanwhile Raven, already meant what she said, and simply repeated what she said, word for word, unfazed, just in case she wasn’t heard the first time. Haha!
@Jettflies2022 and Chriswells506. I was wondering how this division in America came about, and who is responsible for putting it there, and making sure it stays in place in American society... 🤔 With lots of Sarcasm:." Oprah that's right. She is the cause".... 🙄
@Iam_Sue It's Oprah and all those like her, no matter their race. Unfortunately, there are racist in every race. I've heard people say that this race or that can't be racist, only whites, that's pure BS
You just say I'm Canadian right? That's what she's trying to say and Oprah is trying to turn it into a race thing.. she's part of the problem! Everything gets turned into a race issue here in America and this is why.. people like her.
I'm a dual citizen of the US/ Canada, no they really don't you never hear that. If someone is first generation you will hear them say, I'm such or such but if you are born here you're just Canadian.
If i, a french said afro/african-french to anyone i would be behind bars for racism lmao They discriminate themselves out of nationality for origins In my country that would be badly seen but they do it themselves so, they can only complain about themselves for that if they think it gives them any kind of hardship to be discriminated, they litterally do it themselves
My ancestors were from Italy. I’m an American. No one’s insisting that I call myself Italian American. I am proud of my heritage. But, I’m an American. She’s an American.
Only foreigners or the one who has foreigners parents can really understand that. When an American doesn't want to add "African" everybody comes after that person. I guess she possess ONLY 1 PASSPORT, so she is right, she is indeed an American.
@@IleneTruitt no I don’t. You wouldn’t know that if I hadn’t told you. And who cares anyway?? WHY is it so dang important that she be labeled like that? We’re all Americans. Insisting she be labeled is RACIST. What ever happened to “I have a dream…?” Where people aren’t judged by their skin color. I’ll tell you… it doesn’t fit the narrative. We were well on our way to that dream until this wokeism started.
@@ninagallup5085, exactly. I’m Irish, on my grandfather’s side, and Cherokee Indian on my mother’s side, but I don’t label myself as either of those things. I’m proud of my lineage, but I’ve never lived in Ireland, and I’ve never lived on a reservation. I suspect the majority of Americans have all kinds of different lineages in their genealogy, and don’t even know it. A white person who was born in Africa, who is now an American citizen, is an African American. Does Oprah know that? Oprah is ridiculous anyway. You don’t have to be dark skinned to be African. And I absolutely agree with what you said about wokeism putting an end to people being judged by the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin. But they want to cause division between Americans. Divided people are easier to control.
@@ibe310you seem like the only fraud to me. I got a friend from Nigeria and he says they laugh at Americans who say they're African American. Go to Nigeria and tell them you're African American, you'll be the joke of the city that you say it in. Raven is honest. Get over it.
Wow, are you seriously so ignorant that you don't know what "African-American" refers to, because it's sure not talking about two nationalities. @@cruisepaige
Sounds good but let's be honest, we all know that racial division is prominent in America and around the world. Every race has a outlook on other races, and on this platform just scroll through and look at the African American hate. Even raven knows this thats why she denied her race. Her nationality is American but not her race
Good for her!! I'm of Italian-Irish-Scottish descent born in America. Nobody goes around calling themself an Italian American. I never heard someone say I'm a Scottish American. I'm not a white American, she's not a black American. We are AMERICAN.....Period! She doesn't have to care who agrees with her or not. And P.S. I'm the same way!!
Yes! Totally. When I went to America to work there I was really confused with some Americans told me they were English like myself. I then asked them if they were born there - no. We’re they raised there? No. Had they even been there?! No. So how can you be English - your heritage may be this but they are Americans. I applaud any black American to just say they’re American without the nonsense of saying African American.
I'm Scottish, visited America several times, I think it's the best country in the world. The diversity in it's totality people, culture, landscape, climate, and more is literally amazing. I was treated like a queen by everyone every time I visited. Despite all Americas problems, I have only good things to say about your people. Government not so much, but then I can't think of any government across the world that I currently like. 🌅
@@tufgbhw6986 and you NEVER lived in the 1930's or before it so STFU!! 😂😂 I know EXACTLY what I'm talking about because I was born & raised here unlike you!
Raven is so unbothered by Oprah and the narrative that she was trying to create for her. She basically said “oh girl nothing…I got your “girl”…and basically said…”girl…BYE” (exit stage left)
Rubbish. I live near Boston and tons of neighbors describe themselves as Irish American and fly Irish flags. There is a German American club and school in the next town and they hold monthly German events and the annual Octoberfest.
The only way we would all see ourselves as one race, the human race, martians would have to come down and invade us. YOU GO RAVEN, for standing your ground, because she didn't stand a chance. You have always been so RAVEN THE HUMAN. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU FOR BEING THE HUMAN THAT YOU ARE ❤😊🙏
Race peddling? A vast amount of America is segregated in housing, education, and even wear people worship. There are known differences in how different groups are treated by law enforcement. We just started to try punishing police officers when they shoot Black folks for no good reason. Reality isn't peddling.
No she is not. To be an American is by definition a descendant of the British colonists at the time of the founding of the US. It says that in the preamble of the constitution.
@@mgallusif you wanna get technical the only true Americans are the Native Americans...but those are by gone days of the past. We should all be United that we as part of the Citizenry are all American. No place is perfect nor will any place ever be. There is no point in trying to divide us all up more. When we can all push to regard ourselves as one body of people. If that becomes the social norm you bet we will see a social shift on how we view our brothers and sisters of our nation. Abolish duel citizenship! Your an American or your not, it's that simple.
Morgan Freeman said it best. “You want to stop racism? Stop talking about it.” Let’s start seeing each other as human and that’s it. Let’s stop dividing ourselves.
Morgan Freedman is a wise man and an awesome actor. See, the black people of the last 30+ yrs. have totally forgotten Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. his teachings and dream of black people to be judged by character, not skin color. Which unfortunately alot of black people use as a race card. Well, these days that's all that's focused on especially by the liberal leftist and your black elite like Oprah and Whoopie Goldberg(her last name is a typical Jewish last name too) so ironic because she is anti-semitic.
I also say I’m American. In elementary school they conducted surveys where the teacher would call you up to her desk and ask questions about yourself. When they asked what was I (Hispanic, Italian, etc) I would always reply “American”. The teacher called my mother up to the classroom (my mother worked in the school) and told her I refused to answer the question regarding national origin. She said I answered “American”. My mother told her, “she IS American and so am I” 😂😂😂😂 So you go Raven!
@@nicolelucas4061I’m with you on that !! If you think about it whites people are no different than black people in that they did not originate in America 😮 native Americans were here first and everyone else is an immigrant so unless we start calling white people polish American and German American and Irish polish American, etc then we should reconsider calling black people anything other than American. There are true immigrants that live here and they could have that designation ( or not let them choose).
Well tell all them white women'swho grab they purse when a black man comes in close contact. tell the white man whos constantly profiling you at the stop light
No, she got the point. She was just trying to shut her up with the veiled threats of twitter backlash. Oprah made her fortune pushing racism and division.
You know, America is probably the only place where people identify their nationally with [ethic group] [nationally]. For example; here in New Zealand, Māori identify as Māori, not Māori New Zealanders. I'm European/pākehā and I identify as a New Zealander, not as a European New Zealander.
@@bw3506 Of course she does. One of the first things she said in an interview after getting some money was "I've got white people washing my windows." Oprah's racist as fuck.
That's because Oprah has never talked to anyone who isn't in the top 1% as do most celebrities in the media. They have no idea how the majority of people live and what their values are. She gets that information from twitter...
Now if she came here from Africa she could say she's African-American but she's not from Africa she's from Louisiana so she's just American what don't these people f****** understand
Exactly, these people are born and raised here and are like 20 generations deep into this country and they still think their African, well big picture humans all started in Africa so we all could say that if we were delusional it's times grow up people.....
She is never gonna get canceled. Doesn’t matter how much money she has! She has a big influence and she clearly is fighting for the elite who want complete control. She was appalled that this young lady didn’t think how the programming attempts to make her think
Nationalities matter not. When you become an American, you then have SOVEREIGNTY to America. If you're unable to do that, go back to the country you came from.👣🏃♂️
Are you dense? First of all, “these days” as if white people haven’t made a divide a long time ago. Why the freak you think it’s here, and people think a certain way? White people didn’t want to call us Americans from the get go. Heck, I fill out things and it’s like I gotta jump through hoops for them to allow me to call myself an American in general. Anyway, She was making a point saying her Blackness has nothing to do with her identity and she was just to be labeled an “American” or at the very least it first. The issue is 1. That’s not how people from the time her people were dropped here till now have seen it till now 2. her being Black makes up her identity. It’s there. It’s ok. The only issue with it that there is is that people are racist/ discriminatory, but in general being a Black American is ok same as White American and anything else. Should we all be equals and stand as one when it comes down to it? Stand as AMERICA full of Americans as a whole, sure, but the thing is…we can do that while accepting our differences and acknowledging PEOPLE HATE BLACK PEOPLE AND THAT’S WHY IT’S HARD TO JUST BE SEEN AS ANYTHING BUT BLACK
@@kylekenan2321I do all the time. I know a German-American, his family came here right from Germany like 8 years ago when I was in high school. I’ve met Chinese-Americans too.
What's your name is Oprah is that unlike you she's very secure and very comfortable being exactly who she is an individual human being who doesn't need a label slapped on her by anyone
Nope! We know our country, so we don't need to generalize our roots by saying "African-American. People from the continent of Europe don't say, "European-American; they get to identify their country. Besides, some of y'all need to know that Africa is NOT a country.
Exactly. I hate a friend in college who was born in Nigeria and moved to Canada when he was 14. He hated being called African American. He was African. He was Canadian. He was not African American. If you think someone is African American just because of skin color, you are either racist or stupid.
American are Amerindians native country since millenary You are American by paper ancestors European colonisateur The good world should to be colons another
They don't say European American because that would mean CAUCASIANS can't call themselves white anymore they would have to call themselves European American because technically that what white people are or CAUCASIANS people are European but all or most of u will argue that fact EVEN THO ITS A FACT
It because those brought over during enslave trade was strip of their identity and given European names. In order to protect a group of people from discrimination you have a label for those people in order ensure they are not discriminated against. One of my ancestor, who wrote a book, watch his wife and children get sold off in front of him. He never could find his first wife again and only was able to purchase the freedom for 1 to 2 children.
That is correct I watched that segment with Morgan Freeman speaking about Black History Month which is a slap in the face. I don't need a month when Black History is American History 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Also I don't get why black people love Africa so much. Don't they realize that Africans sold their ancestors to the slave traders? So they love the country that sold their forefathers and mothers. Raven has it right. Love the place you were born.
OMG!!! Finally a real strong woman. Not a black woman or African American woman. Just an AMERICAN!!!!! I love it and Oprah you need to pipe down. I am white. My ancestors come from wales. Should I go around saying I am European American? Am I welsh American? Are whites going around saying I am Austrian American or British American. NO NO NO!!! You know why knuckleheads? Because American is not a race. American is not your DNA. American is a belief you hold on your heart. Shame on all of you who identify your ethnicity with being American. You are not Japanese or Filipino or Chinese or Italian or African American. You are just an American and if you are not, go somewhere else already. This girl is absolutely beautiful!!
I remember when Oprah said this VERY QUOTE (I'm not an African American; I'm an American) after her first trip to Africa decades ago. Then she went sideways

@dehumanizedanomaly3413 Pretty much on any form in the whole of the United States, it has designated groups then Caucasian. The idea is if Caucasian isn't broken down to Irish, German, Russian, Swedish, Polish, and all the shades of Caucasian, then why designate Hispanics on forms, or Latinos or pacific islanders or african American. Why can't there be an option that says American? In addition, even if you put other, unbeknownst to most people, it actually gets corrected on the form to what they see you as.
@@dehumanizedanomaly3413 - They do, but Italy, England, Germany, etc. are all countries in the continent of Europe. There are 54 African countries. To call someone African American lumps all black people into a single continental identity.
Yesssssssssss, thank you Raven! Tell the truth Gurl You were born in America, yes we are black, and Yes My Ancestors may have come From Africa, but I was born In America!! My Ancestors may have come From all over the place, and Oprah, was wrong in what she said, she should have backed her Up!! SMH!!
Oprah is one of the richest people on earth. I am sure she would have achieved just as much if she had been born somewhere other than America, but not everyone has her immeasurable talent.
As a black American I never understood why our ethnicity is tied to Africa when most of us never touched African soil. But white American aren’t called British or German Americans .
Mainly cause tribalism with color b4 1800s. Irish, European, Swiss. By this logic, I'd assume Africa had the darkest people based on how simplistic and stupid early humans were
Come on now. It’s our ancestral background, it’s not that hard to understand. White people are referred to as caucasian or of European decent due to their ancestral backgrounds. Neither takes away from the fact that you’re an American if you were born here🙄. Btw calling yourself an American is still in fact labeling yourself lol. Therefore, she labels herself smh. It’s factual, but still a label.
So well said . I have a LOT of roots from multiple "labels". What a wonderful world if we ALL had her view. My grandparents were born American , my parents born American. How many generations do we need to go back? I loved "it's a colorless person " . Wouldn't it be great if we all thought we are colorless. ❤
