Can people with brown hair and/or eyes tell me why they honestly consider themselves to be of the same race as me? I don’t understand this. We do not look alike, ergo we are different races. Saying we have distant common ancestry is as redundant as a black person or East Asian appealing to our distant common ancestry as well. We look different today, we are of different races today. Why do you continually try to claim to belong to my race? You don’t.
