ocean berry 290 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 isn't kim half armenian? armenia is a country in west asia... she's literally half asian (east/southeast asians are not the only asians just fyi). i know a lot of people say stuff like "well armenians are still caucasian so she's white" but the term caucasian as a racial classifier literally doesn't mean anything it's OUTDATED (and also the history behind that word is racist as hell lmao) why is it so hard for people to admit that kim is a SUCCESSFUL woman of color? white people aren't the only ones who can profit off of being basic and talentless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiaSanMia 6,196 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Armenia is in the Caucasus, she's caucasian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocean berry 290 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 They call her white? most people consider her white Armenia is in the Caucasus, she's caucasian there's a difference between caucasian as a term for people from the caucasus region, and caucasian being used as a racial classifier (which is outdated like i said) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimchidiablo 6,189 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Maybe because her original skin color was white-ish, before she got tanned? Afaik in States, people call someone a white, if he got white-ish skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corysilk 16 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 If people can call Rihanna or Beyonce black (when they would be a whole different race in certain African countries and latin American countries like Brazil/Dominican Republic) then the white race can claim Kim!

愛��る 627 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Armenians are part of the Caucasoid race and are an Indo-European people (their language is Indo-European) and they're closely related to the ancient Hittites who were also Indo-European. When people think 'white' they usually think of Western and Northern Europeans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trixbox 2,982 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 People in India and Pakistan are considered white and part of Caucasian. J.F Blumenbach coined the term “Caucasian†because he felt the people of the Caucus Mountains “produced the most beautiful race of men.†These included people from Europe, western Asia and North Africa. Also, genetically, Armenians are very linked with the Celts, both share an R1B group. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_R1b and.... co-sign ray j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
