At a point in my life where coming off as racially ambiguous is bothering me bc I want to be proudly Arab more than ever before
#like I get how w my name (which I love & would never trade for the world but I still get that it’s not an Arabic name)
#which is fine bc it doesn’t have to be for it to fit me. cianna is so delightful and pretty and unique no matter the origins.
#& w my looks. which I recognize are not the stereotypical way ppl would perceive arab people maybe
#that ppl would be thrown off. but people have projected every race ever onto me before guessing I’m Arab and I think that’s insane
#I don’t get why people are always surprised bc I genuinely don’t think it’s that hard of a conclusion to arrive at
#my sister is LICHERALLY a redhead.
#my mom is a blonde.
#not all Arabs look a certain way it’s not that deep
#I would never change my name or how I look like. all these things suit me like nothing else
#but I’m not white I’m not mixed I’m not Latina. I’m Arab. period
#it also feels like Arab erasure lowkey but I’m trying not to interpret it aggressively
#I don’t want people to argue w me about my arabness based on how I look like or what I was named. I’m Arab bc I am?? that is all.
#ANYWAY I relate to Nancy Ajram bc English first name and Arabic surname gang. and racially ambiguous. n yet she’s still THE Arab pop queen
