replies: text:  Maybe we should also be honest about what it's about, namely famous black Britons.  "Black Britons" has a catchy ring to it, though.  — Clarknova 04:16, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Deserves deletion.  Where is the list of white britons.  There isn't one because the whole concept is useless.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.104.140.145 (talk) 13:16, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Many of the people listed are not true black Britons - they are mixed race. Why can't people just be straight about what they're talking about? - it causes less confusion! If they were put on a list of famous mixed race britons page, noone would be able to say anything, other than false accusations. We as mixed race people should have the right to determine how we're categorised. I don't see why the hell its up to white people or black people, as though they have a right over us. Right my arse! Anyway, some of the mixed people, especially before as of late, may have had white factors - by this i mean their conenctions with white people may have helped them in certain ways, whereas a primarily 'black' person most likely would have had a harder tiem from the whites. The mixeds in some cases would also have had difficulties from the black side. Also people then can't throw the notion into the can that 'they're half white, cause then they'll be stating the obvious.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Invertedzero (talk • contribs) 01:34, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

message: This can't literally be all of the black people in Britain. Also if you include mixed race people on this page, why not have them on the non-existant page for white Britons? Why is there not a page for white Britons? Revilo314 (talk) 12:04, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
