So if she's from Africa, why is she white?
>>
>>66911553
>what is colonialism
Gosh anon idk.
>>
>>66910813
She's not African American. White people cannot be African American, the term is used for blacks who have African heritage, however due to the practice of slavery their distinct heritage has been completely wiped away and likely impossible to know so their ethnicity is defined by the broader continent as a whole since we can't know what specific country they're from. Charlie Theron is South African American, if she was born in Kenya then she would be Kenyan American, but no matter what as a white person she would never be African American.

kenya is in africa though

>>66911553
Why am I white if I come from North America?

Colonialism. Go back to /r9k/ and complain about how the system failed you because you didn't pay attention in class

>>66911833
Since when do you make the rules? Or don't you have anything to back up your bullshit?
>>
>>66911908
So...? And Germany is in Europe, doesn't change the fact that someone with German heritage would be considered German-American and not European-American.
>>
>adopting a shitskin

just fuck my shit up
>>
>>66912002
This. If we're going to call people from African countries African-American then we should call people from European countries European-Americans. Of course, we could drop all that bullshit for people that were actually born here and call them American.

I think she's just African, not African-American.

They're Negroes.

Thus Negro-American.

GTFO

>>66912002
...but they would be called European Americans (or more commonly...Americans of European decent)
>>
>>66910813
She's just African m8. Do SA identify or have some semblance of pan-african identity in the real world? I know Libyans aren't black but did under Gadaffi.

American passport. Has been living there for most of her life.

>>66912749
Except we know that unless they are from some more obscure European countries they don't get called European Americans or Americans of European decent. It's always Irish, French, Italian, or German American.

I'm sorry I wasn't a teenage girl born in the 90s when this movie came out.
>>
>>66912908
wiki says
>Theron became a U.S. citizen in 2007, while retaining her South African citizenship.

I guess that literally does make her African-American
>>
>>66912948
Except she is a SouthAfrican-American.

Oh my god, you can't just ask people why they're white.

Afrikaner's identify as European-Africans.

That is to say, they identify as both Europeans and Africans.
Other White South Africans (British etc.) seem to do the same, except they don't like to make a song and dance about it from my experience.

t. I'm half South African (Afrikaner)
>>
>>66912939
I'm a dude who was born in the early 80's who loves 80's action movies but I still think Mean Girls is fucking hilarious.

How does it feel to be ignorant? Must be nice honestly.
>>
>>66911833
Actually African American is for Black Americans only.

For ex. Calling a Jamaican person or a British black person African American is incorrect.

Hardly. America rules the world.

What about black people who aren't African-American?

African-English man related.

I hope you have fun, seriously.

I'm not one of those guys but please don't go into it with a contrarian mindset. I didn't expect to like it, yet I did.

how did they not write another movie as funny as mean girls again?

like did their writing magic just shrivel up after that?
>>
>>66913737
Well Tina Fey spent 7 years after that doing 30 Rock so I imagine that had something to do with it.

She probably could have made some more great comedies if she had spent her prime years focusing on screenplays.

They did catch lightning in a bottle to a degree though. Near perfect casting and timing.
