Black boy have to be green some day?

Hi

Black boy have to be green some day?

I heard it from a movie, and I'm not sure if the phrase is exactly it or not... did you ever heard something like that? what dose that mean?

One of the meanings of word "green" matters "normal" (in informal way). But it would be better to hear someone from USA or Great Britain.

Hi,
Hard to say without a context. 'Green' is often used today to mean 'environmentally conscious and responsible'.

"Green" can also mean someone who is a beginner or naive.

I've never heard "green" used to mean "normal." In addition to "beginner, naive, inexperienced" and "enviromnmentally responsible," "green" can mean "jealous," but it's impossible to tell what it means in the conversation you quoted without more context.
