Because people that look like Rita Ora isn't the archetypal depiction of a Black woman?
When you think of a Black man do you think of Prince and Bad era Michael Jackson?
Black Americans need to divorce themselves of the notion that every spicy White with curly hair and a tan skin with a high contrast filter on Instagram is Blackfishing or attempting to pass as Black.
They are attempting to look racially ambiguous, universally Brown, which is a trope unto itself.
You don't see Latinos trying to claim Bhad Babie and Rita Ora is Latinofshing because their archetypal conception of what a Latino woman looks like does not include a Bratz looking woman.
But Black Americans love to include racially ambiguous, universally Brown women in their conception of Black women.
I look racially ambiguous and have two "full" Black, lived Black all they life, got a Black grandparents and majority of Black Americans do not look like me. The era of people that looked like me and were "full" Black is over due to racial admixture decreasing after slavery.
Black Americans have gotten "Blacker" since slavery and having this conception of universal Brownness and racially ambiguity as an archetype of Blackness is some Doll Test type shit.
My idea and archetype of a Black woman is an unambiguous Black woman, like Pam Grier. It doesn't include Bhad Babie.
