Ina so in mai da hankali kan muhimmin sashi na wannan hadadden labarin - Ms. Asalin launin fata na Dolezal. A cikin littafina Labarin Race , Na yi ƙoƙari na karkatar da bambancin halittar ɗan adam daga ra'ayin al'adu na launin fata. Waɗannan fannoni guda biyu na rarrabuwa sau da yawa suna rikicewa (kamar yadda na yi imani suna nan) kuma irin wannan rudani na iya haifar da tashin hankali da rikice -rikicen zamantakewa.

Abubuwan da ke ƙasa sune abin da ke nuna wasu abubuwan da suka dace a cikin wannan labarin mai tasowa. (Zan yi amfani da "baƙar fata" da "fari" azaman kalmomin launin fata na Amurka, da kalmomi kamar "Ba'amurke Ba'amurke" da "Ba'amurke Ba'amurke" azaman kalmomin ƙabilan Amurka.)

1. Duk iyayen Madam Dolezal sun fito ne daga Turawa, tare da wasu 'yan asalin Amurka amma babu kakannin Afirka.

2. Iyayen ta sun dauki yara bakaken fata guda hudu, don haka ta samu gogewar zama da 'yan uwan ​​bakaken fata.

3. Ta kasance mai zane -zane, kuma tana da MFA daga Jami'ar Howard, babbar cibiyar baƙar fata.

4. Tsohon mijinta bakar fata ne; kuma tana da ɗa daga waccan ƙungiyar.

5. (a) Shekaru da yawa da suka gabata, ta zama waliyyan ɗaya daga cikin brothersan uwanta bakaken fata da aka yi riko da su; da kuma tuhume -tuhume daban -daban da musanta cin zarafin mata a cikin dangin ta na asali sun haifar da hakan

(b) iyayenta suna gaya wa kafofin watsa labarai cewa ta yi fari, kuma

(c) tana nufin baƙar fata, wanda ba ta da alaƙa da ilimin halitta, a matsayin mahaifinta.

Duk waɗannan abubuwan suna ba da shawarar rikice -rikicen dangi da rarrabuwar kawuna Dolezal daga fararen iyayenta.

6. Ta dauki kanta a matsayin Ba'amurke, kuma ta nuna kanta a matsayin bakar fata. Ta ɓoye rashin asalin zuriyar Afirka, kamar yadda mutanen da ke "wucewa don farar fata" ke ɓoye kasancewar irin wannan kakannin.

7. Kamar yadda mutanen da ke "wucewa don farar fata," ci gaba da riƙe zaɓaɓɓen abin da ta zaɓa ya sa ta yi maganganun yaudara da ƙarya da yawa game da kanta da asalin ta.

Saboda Ba'amurke sun yi imanin cewa ra'ayin mutane na "tsere" an yi bayanin shi ta ra'ayin mutane na "jini" (= zuriya), duk wanda ba a san asalin zuriyar Afirka ba zai iya zama baƙar fata (ƙa'idar digo ɗaya). Saboda haka, Madam Dolezal makaryaci ce, kuma ba “baƙar fata ba ce”.

Babbar matsala a nan ita ce zato cewa jinsin mutum - wanda aka ɗauka a Amurka ya zama gaskiyar halitta - za a iya ƙaddara ƙaddara ta hanyar bincika zuriyarsa.

Wasu al'adu suna da ra'ayoyi daban -daban na launin fata. A Brazil ku ne abin da kuke kama; kuma saboda mutane suna duban hanyoyi daban -daban, suna da kalmomin jinsi daban -daban. Misali, binciken da aka yi Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia da Estatística (wanda ke da alhakin ƙidayar jama'a) ya tambayi mutane wane launi suke kuma ya karɓi amsoshi daban -daban 134.

'Yan Brazil suna korafin cewa Amurkawa' yan wariyar launin fata ne, kuma tabbatacciyar hujja (gare su) ita ce muna kiran mutane baƙar fata waɗanda ba baƙi ba ne. A Brazil ba zai yiwu a wuce ga farar fata ko baki ko wani abu ba, domin kai ne kamanninku, ba tare da la’akari da yadda iyayenku ko kakanninku suke ba.

Matsalar Madam Dolezal ta yi kama da ta maza da mata waɗanda asalinsu na jinsi bai yi daidai da yadda jikinsu yake ba. Saboda al'adunmu ba su da wani rukuni na mace mai azzakari ko namiji da farji, muna tilasta irin waɗannan mutane a ƙarƙashin ƙasa. Abubuwa sun inganta ga mazan da ba a haifi maza ba, amma har yanzu maza da mata da yawa ba sa yarda da su, har ma suna fushi ko tayar da su. Duk da haka, wannan ba hujja ba ce game da haƙuri.

Hakazalika, al'adunmu ba su da wani rukuni na baƙar fata ba tare da asalin Afirka ba, kuma yana tilasta su a ƙarƙashin ƙasa. Baƙi da yawa, farare, da sauransu ba sa yarda da irin waɗannan mutanen, har ma suna fushi ko tayar da su. Amma wannan, kuma, ba hujja ba ce akan haƙuri.

Hayaniyar da ta kewaye wahayi game da Madam Dolezal ya haifar da wasu baƙon alaƙa na gado da muhawara mara kyau. Baƙi da farare, masu sassaucin ra'ayi da masu ra'ayin mazan jiya, sun ɗaga muryoyinsu don kare mulkin digo ɗaya, kuma a kan ra'ayin cewa yakamata mutane su kasance masu 'yanci don zaɓar asalinsu-addini, siyasa, ƙabila, launin fata, jinsi-komai.

Wasu mutane suna nuna rashin jituwarsu ta hanyar cewa ba sa jin haushin ba saboda zaɓin asalin launin fata ba, amma ta ƙarya ce. Ganin martanin da aka samu ga wata farar mace a Amurka da ke ikirarin baƙar fata, ba abin mamaki ba ne da ta zaɓi yin ƙarya. Amma mutum yana da 'yancin yin tambaya - a tsakanin waɗanda ke da haƙƙin jefa dutse na farko - ko sun taɓa, a cikin rayuwar mutum, kasuwanci, jima'i, ko wasu mu'amala ta zamantakewa, an rage, ɓoye, ko gurbata bayanan su na sirri don don cimma wata fa'ida ta mutum. Kuma da gaske suna son kare dokar digo ɗaya, ƙa'idar da ta haifar da baƙin ciki sosai ga Baƙin Amurkawa tsawon ƙarnuka?

Bari mu ba Rachel Dolezal hutu. Yanzu da ta fito daga cikin kabad, bari mu yarda da sanarwar ta cewa baƙar fata ce: Ba'amurken Ba'amurke ba tare da baƙar fata ba.
