There seems to be a feeling amongst some blacks that Brian Belo is not a valid black representative. Why?

Because he doesnt fit the black stereotype? Because you can't relate to him? Pardon me but isnt this inverted racism? Are you not going against all that the fight against racism stands for...ie; people shouldnt be judged by their colour or be expected to behave a certain way just because their skin is a certain colour?

Brian Belo is a black man. He won BB8 as a black man. I think its disgusting and hypocritical to hear certain black people describe him as coconut. Youre basically shooting yourself in the foot by implying that your race is limited to certain behaviour.

Doh.
