Miss Black University of Texas Criticized for ‘Not Being Black Enough’
Black Christian News Network 1 ^ | May 2017 | Erin Jones

A University of Texas senior is facing internet backlash after being crowned Miss Black University of Texas (UT).

Rachael Malonson is biracial and said because of her skin tone, some people don’t recognize that. In fact, some of her critics have told her she’s not black enough.

She said she entered this pageant to feel more empowered as a black woman, but after winning the competition she was met with some criticism she didn’t expect.

“Someone literally asked me are you black? Can you prove it to me?” Malonson said. “I was like yes, my dad’s black and my mom’s white.”

“What’s with the white power hand signals?”

Holy crap! LOL!

Some people on YouTube are going to have a field day with this one.

Yes, everyone needs to be a commie clone in the collective. Never have your own opinion or mind.

No one hates blacks and EVERY OTHER RACE TOO more than blacks!

You let her get shot by a white cop and see how fast she becomes black enough

If her dad is full black, she should look a lot blacker, I think. Why don’t we just eliminate race-based beauty contests, because this just proves how stupid it is.

And yet among black men, lighter-skinned women are highly prefered over darker woman - these men are hypocritically racist - in BOTH directions!

And many black men prefer a white woman over a black sister......

But they are blind to their own racism......

It hasn’t taken long for them to come off of that “One drop of Black blood” meme.

Does this mean they no longer recognize Obama as the first Black President?

Or are they just judging people by the tint of the skin now?

"No one hates blacks more than blacks!"

It's the same with women. Nobody can hate a woman like another woman.

But Rednecks and Blue-collars don't give a rat's a$$ as long as your willing to pull your work load.

A picture posted here a couple weeks ago accused two white people of making a “white supremacy hand signal” with that hand sign. Why the heck are those two black guys making the same “white supremacy” hand sign? Hmmmm? It looks like these “Miss” contests are going to need some of those things the cops use to check the tint on your car windows. What a phony, baloney country this has become.

Her father may look black, but is likely part white. From her photo, she really does not typify by skin tones or facial features what people think of as black, defeating the purpose of the competition.
