Halle Berry Believes In The “One-Drop Rule”

February 8, 2011 / Posted by:

Aaaand we’re back to wading through this mess of insanity and fuckery again. Several sources have already branded Gabriel Aubry as the winner of Miss Aryan Nation 2010 by saying he flips his white hood whenever somebody refers to his daughter Nahla as black. If these sources are telling the truth, then I guess Gabriel’s inner David Duke is raging like all hell this morning, because Halle Berry believes that Nahla is black. In case you’re not keeping track of what Nahla checks as race on the Census, she’s technically 25% black and 75% white.

In the March issue of Essence magazine (via TMZ), Halle gives a subtle “fuck you” to the rumors that Gabriel thinks his daughter is white by saying that Nahla is black. Halle said, “I feel she’s Black. I’m Black and I’m her mother, and I believe in the one-drop theory.”

The definition of the one-drop theory from Wiki:

The one-drop rule was put into law in the twentieth century, for instance in Virginia under the Racial Integrity Act of 1924 (following the passage of similar laws in numerous other states). Despite the strictures of slavery, in the antebellum years free people could have up to one-eighth to one-quarter African ancestry (depending on the state) and be considered legally white.[2] Community acceptance, carrying out community responsibilities, and appearance were often the most important factors if a person’s racial status were questioned.

We can argue about the “She’s black! She’s white!” mess all day long. There will always be people shouting that she’s white. There will always be people shouting that she’s black. There will always be people shouting that she’s bi-racial. And there will always be people shouting that she’s full lioness (include me in this group). Whatever. Being bi-racial myself, when people ask me what I am, I just tell them I’m 100% cunt slut. It keeps things simple.

Meanwhile, Gabriel and Halle need to go back to their padded room and scratch at each other about this issue some more. Make sure you blare “Black or White” through the speakers while they do that. Because if they keep fighting about this shit, Nahla is truly going to be full fucked up.
