[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: This is very simple. Some of the Khosians are light skinned therefore Truthcentric has determined they are not black. [/QUOTE]"light skinned" is a relative word. "Some of the KhoiSans" may be light skinned only in [i]relation[/i] to darker skinned Africans, while they may not be so in relation to others. They are certainly much darker than northwest Europeans [already given a demonstration of this], and still darker than tawny Maghrebi folks. Being "lighter" than darker African counterparts doesn't automatically render somebody "non-black". For instance, a "light caramel-colored" African is perceptively "lighter" than a "dark chocolate brown" colored African, and like-wise these two would be "lighter" than a "near pitch-black" colored African. Saying that the first two individuals are "lighter than" the "near pitch-black" African, will not automatically render the former two "non-black" while rendering the "near pitch-black" African as the only "black" in the set. By that logic, then one would not render the darker southern Europeans or "tawny"-looking Europeans "white", since obviously there are skin tone gradients in even a relatively small landmass like Europe; they would be "non-white". [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: Truthcentric said they are not "black". He didn't use the word "Negro" or "true Negro" so it is unfair for you to accuse him of subscribing to a "Negro" concept in any form. [/QUOTE]This is what sets you and I apart. I'm able to read into subtleties even when something is not being said outright. It's funny that you say that I'm "unfairly accusing" the guy, after accusing him of something yourself by opening this thread; well, let's find out: Does Truthcentric consider Winnie "black"? If Truthcentric was to say that Winnie is "black" but not the San male shown earlier, shouldn't that say something about Truthcentric's viewpoint? [/QB][/QUOTE]
