For a few years now, the public figure known as Xander Corvus aka Mychael has made it known via his social media that his father is of African American heritage – however though Xander is multiracial is he really “Black”? From Alex Mayers’ perspective though Xander may genetically be Black, she doesn’t feel that someone who has the ability to conceal their African heritage (pass) truly understands what it is to be a Black African American. Alex includes recent statements (quotes) from Gabrielle Union in this video to further illustrate her points – for more information on the speech by Gabrielle Union that Alex Mayers references, visit this link: PNTLIVE commentary – Gabrielle Union: “Don’t be the happy negro doing the bidding of the status quo” https://youtu.be/Sei8MzUHYyQ
