She did not claim a heritage that is not hers. Race is one thing, ethnicity another. This argument would make sense if she was assuming another ethnicity. If you’re going to approach this with a bare level of honesty, you would have to admit that Somalis differ in terms of if they accept the Black race label or not. I have theories on why this is, but I digress.
You say they behave as if they are Black, but in Western society, to a certain point, they are not being dishonest to relate to the label seeing as many have the requisite skin tone that leads to them being perceived as such, and many cases, treated as such. Add that to a fair majority having lived in poor SES areas and facing the same issues many Blacks in US suffer, and therefore adopting remarkably similar issues, and you get a relateable identity.
And there’s no such thing as Somalimo. But for argument’s sake, where there to be such a thing, no one with a brain between their ears can categorically claim that accepting the Black label negates the fact that they’re Somali culturally.
The point I was making that you responded to is a fair observation. Had she taken his position, she would’ve provoked your ire, same as she has done with the position she takes here.
