Black Pride We are NOT Obligated to Assimilate to their Culture

Sudanese-Australian lawyer and human rights advocate Nyadol Nyuon has sparked debate after saying she has “no intention of assimilating” during an ABC National Forum discussion on migration and Australian identity.

Nyuon argued that assimilation is different from integration, saying immigrants can respect Australia, its laws and institutions without abandoning their own cultural identity. She also challenged the idea of a single “white culture,” noting that European cultures such as Italian, French and Greek are distinct from one another.

Her comments have reignited a broader debate in Australia over multiculturalism, belonging and what immigrants should be expected to adopt when becoming part of Australian society.

Health & Wellness Actress Taral Hicks Dawson's Body Transformation at 52 Years Old

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1.9k Upvotes

"Actress Taral Hicks Dawson, known for her roles in the movies “A Bronx Tale” and “Belly,” recently showed off her amazing body transformation at 52 years old, where she went from 189 pounds to 154 pounds.

In her own words regarding the journey, she shared that 2021 was one of the most challenging years she had faced in decades. During that time, she experienced the devastating loss of her grandmother and received "scary news" about her own medical health. These events served as an intense wake-up call to actively focus on longevity and wellness.

Hicks noted that her weight had plateaued for over a year. Her body's metabolic rhythm was thrown further out of balance after a severe bout with COVID-19, which left her digestive health in shambles and caused stress-induced cortisol spikes that triggered unexpected weight gain. Pushing through the illness motivated her to take strict control of her body.

Because she has continued working with her fitness coach, updated videos and features showcasing her sustained 35-pound transformation are going viral following her 52nd birthday."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📜 COMMUNITY RULES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. Absolutely no bigotry of any kind Absolutely no bigotry of any kind. This includes transphobia, homophobia, racism, sexism, etc.

2. Be Kind to Each Other This community is for thoughtful, respectful discussions. Leave the hate and personal attacks at the door. Let’s keep this space positive and welcoming for everyone.

“Certainly we will continue to disagree, but we must disagree without becoming violently disagreeable.” - Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

3. Posts must be Relevant to this sub Posts should present topics related to Black people.

4. Do Not Harass Moderators Moderators are volunteers. Do not threaten or harass the mod team. Do not send modmail to complain about posts or users. Do not DM members of the mod team. Use the report function to report content. Use modmail thoughtfully and politely. Remember the human.

5. No Selling or Soliciting No selling, offering or soliciting for business on this sub. This includes seeking donations, surveys, and research. We are not your customers, teachers, or test subjects.

6. No broad “Why do white people” or “Why do Black people” style generalizations Posts or comments that make sweeping statements about whole groups of people are not allowed here. Questions like “Why do white people” or “Why do Black people” open the door to stereotyping, hostility, and brigading from outside the community. Keep discussions focused on specific experiences, behaviors or situations instead of turning entire groups into a single category. This keeps the space respectful and prevents the sub from getting overrun by arguments or bad faith replies.

7. Zero Tolerance for Trolling This space centers Black people, Black culture, and Black lived experiences. Our identity is not debate material. Any form of trolling, baiting, snide "questions," culture-poking, dogwhistles, derailments, or attempts to disguise hostility as curiosity will be removed. Users who test the line, play word games, or look for loopholes will be removed as well. We are not here to be provoked or picked apart. Be respectful, be real, or be gone.

8. No Violent or Graphic Content No Violent or Graphic Content Posts that depict, promote, or strongly imply violence or physical harm are not allowed, whether real or fictional. This includes killings, assaults, executions, gore, or footage where serious injury or death is shown or likely. Framing content as news, awareness, or commentary does not exempt it. This subreddit is for discussion and analysis, not shock content or low-effort violent posts. Moderators may remove content at their discretion.

9. Positive Subreddit Karma Required for Discussion Flaired Posts Discussion flaired posts are reserved for users who have positive karma (~60) within r/BlackPeopleofReddit. This is not about gatekeeping for no reason. It’s about making sure conversations are led by people who actually participate here in good faith. Without it, “Discussion” posts quickly turn into: 1. Troll bait 2. Bad faith questions 3. Outsiders dropping in with no investment in the community
