So what does white passing look like in America today? I have largely switched to saying white-presenting as opposed to white passing. The historical context of white passing is rooted in violence and disenfranchisement of fair-skinned Black Americans. However, we cannot acknowledge this without mentioning colorism, when light-skinned Black people and white Americans tend to turn their internalized racism towards darker-skinned Black people. For example, there was a higher monetary value set for enslaved people who were light-skinned, and even historically, Black sororities and fraternities have been known to show colorism in member selection. (Nova Southeastern University). Even today, light-skinned Black Americans are less likely to encounter the same barriers as their darker-skinned counterparts (Time).

I'm native but extremely white presenting. The one part of me that 'looks native' is my hair. But, I'm literally ruining it by tugging as hard as I can on it when upset/having a meltdown/anxious. So, now I feel like I'm disrespecting my ancestors and hurting more people than myself as I previously thought. I don't know what to do, I don't want to hurt my hair, but I also can't stop using it as a grounding technique.

Please stop using white PASSING and white PRESENTING interchangeably. Those are two different things.
White PASSING is when you can be seen as white.
White PRESENTING is when you’re doing everything in your power to be perceived as white.
You can be passing without presenting. But you can’t being presenting without passing.
This is a more nuanced conversation than I can and can’t add to, but it’s. A conversation that needs to be had.
Passing vs. Presenting will changed depending on context. Meaning if it’s in the black community, then the context of ( let’s say) Hasley and Logic being a white passing mixed person will have a different weight than ( let’s say) being passing or presenting as someone’s who’s Filipino and German.
Context matters, and this is a debatable( so to speak) topic. But do remember that these terms are started within the Black community and is rooted in slavery.
Does this make sense?
Also learn the difference between being perceived as white passing or presenting and IDENTIFYING as white passing or presenting. Like you can be perceived and not identify as such.

I really find it interesting how Zionists have no issues constantly using words like "Islamic" or "Islamist" or "jihadist" to describe the people they're killing without any fear of being accused of Islamophobia or that they're being bigots.
Because they know that we live in a world where anything or anyone remotely "Muslim" are automatically portrayed as inherently evil and deserving of death, especially in the US and other Western countries where Israel gets most of its support from them. So therefore, no one can be mad at them for killing all of these people, right? After all, they're only killing scary radical "Islamists" and "jihadists," NOT innocent people.
Meanwhile you would never hear any pro-Palestine people calling IDF soldiers "Jewists" or "Jewish extremists," even when they're literally branding the star of David onto Palestinians' faces and houses, instead we have to be very careful to not associate Judaism with Israel's crimes and are obligated to write a long essay about how we in fact do NOT want to kill every Jew in the world before we're allowed to show a shred of sympathy toward the thousands of Palestinian civilians being murdered as we are speaking.
Yet somehow that's not enough and they still hit us with the "when you say Zionists you actually mean Jews!" all while ignoring how they themselves aren't putting any effort into not demonizing Islam and Muslims with their words, because demonizing Islam and Muslims isn't an issue to them and the only way they can justify all the killing they're doing.

Dick: so wait, most of us have died at some point. How come we don’t have white streaks in our hair like Jason?
Tim: maybe it has to do with the Lazarus Pit
Damian: false. Neither Mother nor Grandfather have streaks born of unnatural causes
Steph: maybe it’s cuz he was dead longer
Cass: that doesn’t make sense
Steph: do you have a better idea!?
Jason:
Jason: I have vitiligo, you fucks

Okay we make fun of the Skyler hate a lot as we should because wow the misogyny was working overtime the misogyny was grinding but it does genuinely make me see red like I really cannot overstate the degree to which Walter ruined her life… imagine being married to and in love with someone for like sixteen years building a life with them having kids with them trusting them completely and then one day out of the blue they start selling METH and KILLING PEOPLE and sexually and emotionally abusing you and turning your family against you to isolate you and cover their own ass and then they get your brother-in-law killed and up and die protecting the twink they were emotionally cheating on you with leaving you to take all of the heat from law enforcement and the public and your own grieving family who blame you for letting it go this far and you can’t even mourn your shitty dead husband or your old life properly because of public scrutiny and because it was probably all a lie anyways he EXPLODED her life!! She’s all alone he left her with no support system her relationships with her son and with her sister will never ever be the same!! He ruined her life!! He ruined her life!!

A Handy guide on if you are just racially white or white presenting/passing
this is not an exclusive guide, it can only be determined by an individual of their identity, however i know there is a lot of confusion on being racially white & non european or being a racially ambiguous white presenting/passing person. this is mainly a guide for white passing/presenting people who i've seen are confused on their identity and need some basic guidelines!
White presenting is used to refer to any ethnic group. White passing is used specifically to refer to the Black diaspora.
So,
First thing is first, what are you ethnically? If the answer is anything mixed with non-european (Grandparents or closer, being 100%), you can be classed as an ethnic minority.
Now, how often are you perceived? As a white person? As your non-european heritage?
Is there any "what are you *really*?" questions, any follow-up questions when you say that you are a white person?
If the answer is:
You are solely perceived as white, you are a racially white ethnic minority.
You are perceived as your non-european heritage an equal amount of times you are perceived as white, you're white passing/presenting poc.
You are perceived solely as your ethnic minority, you are poc - no white presenting/passing labels.
You are perceived an equal amount white and non-european, with follow up questions or doubt about being 100%/racially white - you're white passing/presenting poc and racially ambiguous.
You are perceived only as non-european identities, with follow up questions about what kind of brown/black/East Asian you are - you're racially ambiguous and poc.
This must also take into account your race in your home countries, the country and environment you grew up in, and the country and environment you currently live in - to form your racial identity as accurately as possible.

For context: a contraversial Tiktoker of colour called Modern Warrior recently shared a video in which they said they believed white passing/presenting POC are white.

Yup, that’s me, watching my future wife fall to the ground dead from a trap I set off. I bet you’re wondering how I got into this situation. Well, my life’s a little crazy, but it all began when my family was murdered in a political coup and I made a pact to create the first gun with a smoke demon...
