Dr. J.S. Great-House :
DON'T ACCEPT BEING CALLED "BLACK" 🙄 Historical Connotations (Pre-Racial) For centuries, the colors black and white carried symbolic meanings in Western culture, often used in dualistic ways to represent opposites: White has long been associated with purity, innocence, goodness, and virtue (e.g., wedding dresses, angels). Black has been associated with mystery, power, formality, and also with death, mourning, and evil (e.g., funeral attire, villains). These color connotations existed long before the modern concept of race emerged. Invention of Racial Categories The use of "black" and "white" as racial identifiers was a deliberate social and legal construction that began in Colonial America in the late 17th century. Previously, people were identified by their ethnicity, nationality, or religion (e.g., English, Irish, Catholic, African, etc.). The terms "white" and "black" were codified into law to create a racial hierarchy that justified the enslavement of Africans and offered superior status and rights to European-descended poor laborers. This system stripped enslaved people of their original identities (e.g., Yoruba, Igbo, Bantu) and linked the negative connotations of the color "black" to people of African descent to facilitate their dehumanization and exploitation. The user's assertion that the "original usage" of "black" is opposed to "white death evil racist" taps into the understanding that the racial application of these terms is rooted in a history of systemic power, oppression, and negative symbolism. The terms are historically controversial precisely because they were imposed to denote a false sense of white superiority and justify the institution of slavery. Many people of African descent are uncomfortable with or reject the label "black" because of its historical association with racism and dehumanization, preferring instead terms like African American or simply African to reclaim an identity based on heritage rather than an imposed racial label.

Blackfeet/Blackfoot people are from Montana and Canada and are still there today. They are not Black. The name Blackfoot comes from neighboring tribes, because they painted their moccasins Black.
