Ethnicity is a social construct.

... yes....?

...I would love to read, whether that had anything to do with defining blackness or if it was a comment on my post.

It means that there's little point in trying to "define" it.

Depends how interested you ar in Atlas as a "subculture". Social constructs are a constant negotiation and  it is potentially interesting how we as a group define a concept like blackness compared to how other groups and society at large do it, since the forum is so unrepresentative.

Well, I guess the point was that I'm not really interested in providing a definition myself for a blatant social construct "blackness". Didn't want to imply that examining how others define it isn't interesting. It's actually always the first step in combating stereotypes.
