Oh word we can call black people "not black" because they don't "act black" or aren't "dark enough" again? Back in my day that was a racism.

We can certainly point out that a person raised by a white parent in a city with less than three percent black people doesn't really embody the typical black experience.

Yeah I'm sure he never heard that before. Sorry he's not black enough for you.
