Atom Heart 1,929 Posted October 21, 2015 The difference is that their skin tone is closer to black, so they're viewed as black by society. While Halsey isn't, because her skin tone is closer to white, so she gets to enjoy all white privileges. It's not her "fault" of what her skin color is my point is that doesn't make her any less black racially because her skin is paler (like Vin Diesel, the girl that played Spencer on PLL, Charli XCX, according to some people Melanie Martinez passes as well, etc). She hasn't shut up about being black since I've started listening to her music over a year ago, even providing pictures of herself as a child, without a weave or wig, her parents. Oh well. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well.Why are you bringing in more arguments though? I did not say it was her fault to be extremely white-looking (who would say this tbh "it's your fault you're white" ) or that I doubted her / didn't care about her mixed background (in fact, to me one of the best things she has is that she's embracing her mixed bg now and also speaks up on social issues). You asked what was the difference between her and some other mixed celebrities and I responded to that. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You made it sound like she "isn't black enough" since she's pale. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I'm not a native English speaker and also that was just a quick reply I did at midnight so it could be that. Anyway I saw she got a Madison Square Garden tour date. That's pretty big. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
