Today on Facts Me, I peel back one of the most protected illusions in American culture — the identity labels we were handed, the ones we never questioned, and the truth buried beneath them. America has spent decades insisting it knows who is “African American”… but what if the entire label was built on a myth? What if the people most aggressively branded with it have never fit the definition — and the person who actually does is… well… not the person anyone expects?

In this episode, I break down the history nobody teaches, the documentation nobody reads, and the cultural privilege nobody talks about. We expose how white privilege wasn’t just social — it was linguistic, political, and intentionally assigned. And how the label “African American” was never about heritage… it was about hierarchy. I follow the paper trail. I follow the bloodlines. I follow the governments that created the categories. And then I reveal the twist: a white man has more of a reason to call himself African American than you do.

No race-baiting. No identity shaming. Just cold, documented, historically accurate truth — the kind that makes culture uncomfortable and makes Factivists lean in closer. This is not an episode about dividing people. It’s an episode about exposing who was allowed to define identity… and who was never allowed to reclaim it.

Educate. Don’t fabricate. Brace yourself. This one hits the labels we never thought to question.
