Why’s it Acceptable For a Black British Influencer to Ask Black British People Where They’re From But Not a White Person?

For some reason British born Africans who are first and second generation British citizens seem to only feel like they’re British when a White person questions their background.
A British influencer who is of African parents seems to think it’s a noval idea to ask people where their from. Again though if this was a white person this would be considered insulting to Black people. This has gained him hundreds of thousands of followers, even though most of the people state things that are not correct about Africa and the Caribbean.
I would like you to read these articles I wrote about what a British person looks like, I also wrote what an African person looks like. Africans continue to think that in order to be an African you have to be a Black person. This is the same for White Americans and Europeans, they also seem to think that you need to be a white skinned person.
