so is that due to them being more than one race or culture???? people tend to think if you are a multiracial person , that a person is automatically better. or good looking for that reason alone. smh .. another form of ignorance. LOL

In today's society, being bi-racial has become more common in the USA. Taveling and Living abroad for over 40 years, I have blended into many social constructs comfortably since my mother is of French and African heritage and my father is of European and Asian heritage. I feel quite comfortable in my own skin and never felt that I had to explain my background to anyone. In any census, I simply check the box, OTHER.

It's NOT just based on lighter-skinned, or type B hair, we come in myriads of colors, tones, textures of hair, shades, all Beautiful, all uniquely formed Masterpieces.
My eyes too! When the narrator stated “People often focus more on his Asian heritage, overlooking the other side of his background” I was like “WHO??!!” You notice his skin color (African American heritage & background) right away. How can you not?
It does matter of interest to applying for a job. A listing of ethics background asking your color. Question is why does it intrigued the caucasian race more than any other race ?
No, I think Ms.Channing had said that before she died,she said that she was in her I think 80's when she found out that she was mix and she joked about that's why she sing so good. 😊
@@Debra-z2r In her own 2002 memoir, Channing stated that in 193, around the age of 16 she found out this Black fact. Though, Channing did not decide to fess up that she had been passing for white until she was 81 years old.
Exactly! What I got from this video is that as long as you can blend in with the majority, why mention the side of you that probably won’t be accepted? Smh
The older Carol Channing got the more pronounced her African-American features became. That's why she came clean about her parentage before she passed away.
Uh, no, that's not true. She came out of the STOOPID racial closet because times had changed and she didn't have to worry about losing her career anymore.
@@DonnaMariaDixson Do you blame her. If she didn't we wouldn't know who she was. And she did reveal her father was AA before she died. I love her, leave her alone. Imagine the trauma and anxiety of being revealed.
I have a biracial daughter who passes for white . She married a white boy and didn't even mention her family she didn't even let us know she was getting married but its ok I love her and yes it hurts like hell 😭 😭.
What is it that hurts like hell? If it is the haters, just know they are no longer the majority. Read the comments. You’ll see the “us” that we actually are and always were. NEVER allow them to define what you see or feel. We don’t need them or their approval. WE have each other.
@@RaymondMerritt-z3p HUH!?! What type question is that? I would imagine What hurts like hell is having a daughter that has chosen not to acknowledge you/THE PARENT(S). That alone must be a horrible feeling. Additionally, it’s because she is “passing”.
Genetically, I am all of those ethnicities/races you mentioned. The Black part is 65%and I look Black. Always identified as Black and still do despite the DNA results.
I learned about Heather Locklear 20 years ago from TV One, when they somehow got information about white public figures with black ancestry. Heather Locklear was one, Jackie Kennedy Onasis (her father's side), Timothy Olyphant, Humphrey Bogart, Ruth Gordon, Carol Channing, Gloria Vanderbilt. It was as if TV One was "outing" people's identity, and I'm wondering 'how did they get this information?'
@@karenearle5507 Having Black ancestry doesn’t make you Black, just like a Black person having White ancestry doesn’t make them White. Unless you’re straight from Africa, we’re all mixed with something, and whatever that is, it doesn’t change who you are.
Indeed... They're far more common than not. Including Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Bovier Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, President Hoover, and definitely many related to Queen Elizabeth of the British Monarchy.
Man was created from the dust of the ground, God breathed into his lungs which God created, man bcame a living soul.nostrils I meant to say. Man goes back to the dust of the ground. That's why they have to be buried underground.

My son is over 30 years old since he was snatched to another state via the family law practice racket at three. He tells me he’s black but has been unable to spend any time with his black family for all of his life. The only contact he’s had is intermittent, over the phone, maybe 5 times in person. Can you believe it? What do you think his white family, who paid the judges and the lawyers to keep him away from me and his black family, have been telling him? Nothing? Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS), although accurate in Brazil, is thought to be nonexistent in the USA. Being black should have a whole lot to do with if you grow up with black people. It doesn’t mean skin hues and such. This would be nonsense. What is happening is my son has been violated, and so have we all, thereby, essentially made into a slave. Our court system does not operate using objective criteria. Children are treated like property. Parents are dispensable. Billions of dollars go into the making of various “identities.” They are modifying children like a boutique. I asked my 30-year-plus-old son if he was black and why doesn’t he run away? He has no idea what I’m talking about. He can’t imagine this: his uncle, lawyers, brothers, and the rest of the Irish American family have stolen him. We do not have a King Solomon as a judge in family law. We have Bozo the Clowns. It’s a fraud. He’s been programmed and conditioned, which is a human rights violation against, well, humanity. Democracy, hypocrisy. Open your eyes, people. The question, if you’re, does it matter when people are encouraged to kidnap and abuse their own children? Does it matter who’s black or white? We can do better.
Your family’s experience pisses me off the most, and we are many. If you read the comments you’ll see NONE that validate this video. In spite of the Trump phenomenon, these people coming out versus being under ground is making them visible and easier to expose. And They are actually outnumbered now, and don’t speak for most of us. Black Lives Matter should have used Black Lives Matter Too so that the dummies would have been forced to “get it”. They’re slow, you know. And they also would have been blocked from crying “foul” (sooo stupid!). Just cash in on that you had allies you didn’t know about, and that we always needed you as much as you needed us. But for the sake of your family and your son, please access the real humans who are and have been as incensed as you are all along. We ARE one family and have always been in actuality. We have always been fighting for the world God intends for us to live in, all of us equal and exquisitely happy to be. Abolitionists were always present and incensed. God has always been seeing each and every heart and mind and recording everything. We’ve never not been united, but now we have access to each other because of the Internet. Just so you know.
The craziest thing about your sad situation is that IRISH people weren't, (and in some places STILL aren't) considered white, though I have no idea how one can be Irish and not be considered white. They are some of the WHITEST people on PLanet Earth. I speak frm Experience as I am the GGrandaughter of an Ulster Scotch-Irish man. ON my mother's side, 3 of my GGrandparents weren't Black...2 were European and 1 was Mikosukee. On my father's side, at least 3 of my greatgranparents weren't black, with one being Cherokee, FOR REAL! She wasn't. unlike what so many people claim a "princess", because the Cherokee didn't have that sort of nobility/caste system.
@@irulanfoucher2183 White in the USA is usually based on appearance. All people are essentially African in origin, from what I understand. The idea of various types of people has more to do with tribal or ethnic identification, which is different from race. Those who believe in colors mainly determine the value of one another concerning race is the result. Hence, there are degrees of white and blackness assumed to be supported by science, not sociology. Your discussion about the varieties of degrees of your relatives reinforces the idea of creating more or less a value in people by measuring the degrees of individuals. My concern is about the polar opposite of the two groups, not individuals, considered to be races, the whites, and blacks, based on that which came to be promoted as scientific fact and codified in laws. Irish, or Europeans, are generally considered to be whites, and they are the dominant GROUP that determines our relationships, with whites being at the top and blacks at the bottom, and other “racial’ groups falling somewhere in between. My interest is not so much about tribes and ethnic groups but about the concept of race as a biological fact based on the enslavement of African people. Thanks for responding.
@@harounali7917 whose life get added value knowing that 20 celebrities are "black"? Is more value added to society and lives when people strive for good character, regardless skin color?
They are not black. They are Bi-Racial. Calling a person black, not counting in their non-black parent is wrong. Dont erase anyone's parents, even if they are Bi-Racial
Nobody gives a flyin' eff about white racial purity... except the inbred asses that jumped up the whole idea. The whole tincture bs should've finished with the ptolemaic dynasty.
I hate to break it to you but it was {{!!STUPID!!}} "law" that established that concept in the middle/late 19th century because the divide between what constituted African descent & European/other was no longer as easily discerned. It was a way to institute jim crow and oppress people .
They are black because trust me, as a biracial person you are accepted in the black community than in the racist ''white communities''....The only time the white community embraces you is IF YOU ARE RICH OR FAMOUS! Just like the same way they accept Rich famous black people! This has been a thing for so many years
Remember, white people created racism as a form of them feeling superior and this led to them oppressing and denying many basic things to people they felt were inferior

People are judged by what other people can see. I dont have time to care what people choose to be or are. I have a life to live while i weed out the haters in my way. Be who or what you want and survive the best you can
There are so many African-American people that identify with European because they look the part, even now as history and generations have passed down a stigma and phenotype of people looking European who actually have more African ancestry that people that are dark skin but this is all due to European racism and classism
There are PLENTY of African-Americans who are INCREDIBLY racist. And classism has been around for thousands of years, a lot of it starting in Africa. Incidentally, virtually everyone in the world is mixed race.
European racism? Racism is global, anyone can be racist. You just need a harebrain, any kind of intolerance and a bigoted prejudice all in equal measure.
I knew about all of these individuals except Wentworth Miller, Pete Wentz, Troian Bellisario, Carol Channing, Jessica Szorh, Aubrey Plaza. Now the biggest unexpected was Heather Locklear.
This is nothing new; my grand dad born 1890 looked white and passed while in World War I. Many of us have been passing for hundreds of years and things have not changed.
My people! 😃 This video is so validating. I describe myself as American of multiracial and multicultural descent and use colors/race in describing myself when educating others and dealing with biases. Even though I have to deal with rejection from my own people, I am very proud of my cultures and who I am. We are all unique products of our parents, and we are beautiful! Let's stop the hate and get with the loving. :)
I lived in West Hollywood and Laguna Beach most of my life and knew/know Slash among many other musicians. I remember when he grew up in Beverly Hills, played in many Sunset Strip bands and attended Bev. Hills high school. He came from money but was always a good natured down to earth nice kid.
I am 3/4 white and 1/4 African..I look Scandinavian (like my father's heritage). I am blonde, green eyed and cafe au lait skin.. my Mum had black hair very dark skin and was often mistaken for my service nanny when she pushed my pram in London parks...which always made her laugh.
Weirdly enough, Rashida's sister left a prestigious school, to go to an all Black school in the hood. She said she felt more comfortable there. Look it up.. I think it depends on how you perform. Why would the industry not be ready for Carmen Ejogo? She looks like a lot of light skin actresses. BS
I think that’s why they’re listed because there are some actors and actresses that we can tell are biracial and some have a phenotype where they can easily disguise it
MM had her race as Caucasian on her driver’s license and resume prior to her marrying H. No one had an issue with her being black except her and didn’t acknowledge her heritage until it could benefit her. I was raised to respect everyone regardless of race and to judge people based on their behaviour and actions.
To cut a long story short: Not too long ago , people like this(Meaning only the ones who don't look African in this video) would have been referred to as quadroons & octoroons. During slavery, most of them would have been enslaved unless some ancestor, a relative or they themselves would have purchased their freedom . Another option was to run away, to Cananda or Europe to live as a white person. Hendrik Cesar who persuaded Sarah Baartman to go to Europe was a "free Black". Free Blacks were formerly enslaved non white people of the Cape colony regardless whether of African or Asian origin. Cesar was perceived as white in the UK and France. The only difference today is that most of these people have fathers of African origin who often themselves have inherited a lot of European dna but under less favourable circumstances.
Me...i am of African, east indian & Irish decent. I really don't care what ppl think...i would tell em they need to mind their own business. All i can say is i make no apologies for who i am, don't get mad because i am crazy good looking...and my kids too & i love God.
They look human but the system doesn’t allow people to look human because of injustices that Africans are constantly facing in certain countries. I think we are all mixed…
Who decides what is the race of a person that comes from different racial backgrounds.?How you choose which race is the official one? If I am half black and half white, which one is more important than the other? Who sets the standard to decide that? When you are born , you don’t feel your color, is the people around you who talks about it. Why do people have to explain their background? Do Irish descendants people need to mention it wherever they go?
Lots of people who fuse those relationships don't take in on how this can really damage their children. I have several brothers and sisters that are biracial and they tell me the huge challenges that they go through. And a lot of people also don't know the true origin of many people in Mexico, Vietnam, China, and indigenous of this land the so-called America. The above mention all roots from The Motherland Africa. The original indigenous of this land were not light skinned,nor was the original Asians. All migrated from Africa and were dark skin, from black, brown, brass,to red bone. Tessa, you Black. The Rapper, you Black. This has caused a lot of psychological problems in mix children lives.
Actually it’s the perpetrators of this crap that have always been causing a huge problem in all our lives. Thank God I finally found a completely integrated community to be happy in.
Most people have black blood/....Black, White, Native American, certain Asians, Italian, Hispanic, Latino, ..etc.....Also very few Black people in the United States are completely or 100% Black....I've always stated that everyone should do their DNA and RNA, etc
The binding is coming to an end. I think Kamala will win because I think God has Donald where he is so that His real people would rise up, speak up, stand up for our lives and our version of reality that came from Him. Don’t say “so sad”. Say “so bad, so not right, so done”.
Someone said that God made us all. And be what you are, be proud! Im a proud, black Christian man. Who has always been proud of my race. I been told on my mother's side of the family, I've got Native American Indian ancestry. Was told on my father's side of the family. That i had a great - great grandfather who was a Irishman. My great- grandmother's brother said that. I've ordered 2 different things from an ancestry place to say what my ancestry. And never got around to giving a sample. I intend to before this year is over!

Tyga looks all Black to my eyes! , because a lot of Blacks possess 'epicantric eye folds" , especially Blacks in southeastern Africa.
My eyes too! When the narrator stated “People often focus more on his Asian heritage, overlooking the other side of his background” I was like “WHO??!!” You notice his skin color (African American heritage & background) right away. How can you not?

It does matter of interest to applying for a job. A listing of ethics background asking your color. Question is why does it intrigued the caucasian race more than any other race ?
"Were" black instead of "are" black?

So that means Carol Channing was what was called back in the day Passing, she didn’t want it released until she died her son told everyone
No, I think Ms.Channing had said that before she died,she said that she was in her I think 80's when she found out that she was mix and she joked about that's why she sing so good. 😊
Actually, she admitted it in her memoir in early 2000's, before she died.
@@Debra-z2r In her own 2002 memoir, Channing stated that in 193, around the age of 16 she found out this Black fact. Though, Channing did not decide to fess up that she had been passing for white until she was 81 years old.
Actions speak louder than words. If you are proud of both, embrace both. So why no one knew.
Most people did know. It just doesn't matter enough to speak on.
Exactly! What I got from this video is that as long as you can blend in with the majority, why mention the side of you that probably won’t be accepted? Smh

@ No, it is not. Learn about it.
True.
@@marcellominasi41 got proof
The older Carol Channing got the more pronounced her African-American features became. That's why she came clean about her parentage before she passed away.
For years she was not supposed to have known.
I agree!
Uh, no, that's not true. She came out of the STOOPID racial closet because times had changed and she didn't have to worry about losing her career anymore.
It wasn't told until after she passed, so she was “Passing”
@@DonnaMariaDixson Do you blame her. If she didn't we wouldn't know who she was. And she did reveal her father was AA before she died. I love her, leave her alone. Imagine the trauma and anxiety of being revealed.

Sorry to hear… wished I had family that wanted me around ..
Why marry a boy? Are you a black boi?
What is it that hurts like hell? If it is the haters, just know they are no longer the majority. Read the comments. You’ll see the “us” that we actually are and always were. NEVER allow them to define what you see or feel. We don’t need them or their approval. WE have each other.
Repercussions and consequences
@@RaymondMerritt-z3p HUH!?! What type question is that?
I would imagine What hurts like hell is having a daughter that has chosen not to acknowledge you/THE PARENT(S). That alone must be a horrible feeling. Additionally, it’s because she is “passing”.

I learned about Heather Locklear 20 years ago from TV One, when they somehow got information about white public figures with black ancestry. Heather Locklear was one, Jackie Kennedy Onasis (her father's side), Timothy Olyphant, Humphrey Bogart, Ruth Gordon, Carol Channing, Gloria Vanderbilt. It was as if TV One was "outing" people's identity, and I'm wondering 'how did they get this information?'
And Heather Locklear's grandparents come from the Lumbee Indian nation in NC.
@@karenearle5507 Having Black ancestry doesn’t make you Black, just like a Black person having White ancestry doesn’t make them White. Unless you’re straight from Africa, we’re all mixed with something, and whatever that is, it doesn’t change who you are.
It is unfortunate people are compelled to hide their culture because of all the racism. We are more alike than different.
Indeed... They're far more common than not. Including Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Bovier Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, President Hoover, and definitely many related to Queen Elizabeth of the British Monarchy.

My son is over 30 years old since he was snatched to another state via the family law practice racket at three. He tells me he’s black but has been unable to spend any time with his black family for all of his life. The only contact he’s had is intermittent, over the phone, maybe 5 times in person. Can you believe it?
What do you think his white family, who paid the judges and the lawyers to keep him away from me and his black family, have been telling him? Nothing? Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS), although accurate in Brazil, is thought to be nonexistent in the USA.
Being black should have a whole lot to do with if you grow up with black people. It doesn’t mean skin hues and such. This would be nonsense. What is happening is my son has been violated, and so have we all, thereby, essentially made into a slave.
Our court system does not operate using objective criteria. Children are treated like property. Parents are dispensable. Billions of dollars go into the making of various “identities.” They are modifying children like a boutique. I asked my 30-year-plus-old son if he was black and why doesn’t he run away? He has no idea what I’m talking about.
He can’t imagine this: his uncle, lawyers, brothers, and the rest of the Irish American family have stolen him. We do not have a King Solomon as a judge in family law. We have Bozo the Clowns. It’s a fraud.
He’s been programmed and conditioned, which is a human rights violation against, well, humanity. Democracy, hypocrisy. Open your eyes, people. The question, if you’re, does it matter when people are encouraged to kidnap and abuse their own children? Does it matter who’s black or white? We can do better.
RIGHT FAM 100% HERE IN 2024 WE NEED TO DO BETTER
Your family’s experience pisses me off the most, and we are many. If you read the comments you’ll see NONE that validate this video. In spite of the Trump phenomenon, these people coming out versus being under ground is making them visible and easier to expose. And They are actually outnumbered now, and don’t speak for most of us. Black Lives Matter should have used Black Lives Matter Too so that the dummies would have been forced to “get it”. They’re slow, you know. And they also would have been blocked from crying “foul” (sooo stupid!). Just cash in on that you had allies you didn’t know about, and that we always needed you as much as you needed us.
But for the sake of your family and your son, please access the real humans who are and have been as incensed as you are all along. We ARE one family and have always been in actuality. We have always been fighting for the world God intends for us to live in, all of us equal and exquisitely happy to be. Abolitionists were always present and incensed. God has always been seeing each and every heart and mind and recording everything. We’ve never not been united, but now we have access to each other because of the Internet. Just so you know.
The craziest thing about your sad situation is that IRISH people weren't, (and in some places STILL aren't) considered white, though I have no idea how one can be Irish and not be considered white. They are some of the WHITEST people on PLanet Earth. I speak frm Experience as I am the GGrandaughter of an Ulster Scotch-Irish man. ON my mother's side, 3 of my GGrandparents weren't Black...2 were European and 1 was Mikosukee. On my father's side, at least 3 of my greatgranparents weren't black, with one being Cherokee, FOR REAL! She wasn't. unlike what so many people claim a "princess", because the Cherokee didn't have that sort of nobility/caste system.
Yes that is wierd that Irish folks were not considered white,also the Irish were treated horrible,sometimes worse than Blacks!!!@@irulanfoucher2183
@@irulanfoucher2183 White in the USA is usually based on appearance. All people are essentially African in origin, from what I understand. The idea of various types of people has more to do with tribal or ethnic identification, which is different from race. Those who believe in colors mainly determine the value of one another concerning race is the result. Hence, there are degrees of white and blackness assumed to be supported by science, not sociology. Your discussion about the varieties of degrees of your relatives reinforces the idea of creating more or less a value in people by measuring the degrees of individuals. My concern is about the polar opposite of the two groups, not individuals, considered to be races, the whites, and blacks, based on that which came to be promoted as scientific fact and codified in laws. Irish, or Europeans, are generally considered to be whites, and they are the dominant GROUP that determines our relationships, with whites being at the top and blacks at the bottom, and other “racial’ groups falling somewhere in between. My interest is not so much about tribes and ethnic groups but about the concept of race as a biological fact based on the enslavement of African people. Thanks for responding.
God created one race we are called human beings
That's true, the part about us all being human beings. Unfortunately that's where most of our commonalities end.

Does being "black" add or deduct value from a person's life? Should people be judged by the color of skin or content of character?
DEFINITELY ADDS@
@@harounali7917 whose life get added value knowing that 20 celebrities are "black"? Is more value added to society and lives when people strive for good character, regardless skin color?
Definitely ADDS…especially strength of character and integrity.
It all the way adds. Nothing else I'd rather be.
They are not black. They are Bi-Racial. Calling a person black, not counting in their non-black parent is wrong. Dont erase anyone's parents, even if they are Bi-Racial
It’s the old one drop rule.
Nobody gives a flyin' eff about white racial purity... except the inbred asses that jumped up the whole idea. The whole tincture bs should've finished with the ptolemaic dynasty.
I hate to break it to you but it was {{!!STUPID!!}} "law" that established that concept in the middle/late 19th century because the divide between what constituted African descent & European/other was no longer as easily discerned. It was a way to institute jim crow and oppress people .
They are black because trust me, as a biracial person you are accepted in the black community than in the racist ''white communities''....The only time the white community embraces you is IF YOU ARE RICH OR FAMOUS! Just like the same way they accept Rich famous black people! This has been a thing for so many years
Remember, white people created racism as a form of them feeling superior and this led to them oppressing and denying many basic things to people they felt were inferior
Mixed don’t diss their other ancestry!

There are so many African-American people that identify with European because they look the part, even now as history and generations have passed down a stigma and phenotype of people looking European who actually have more African ancestry that people that are dark skin but this is all due to European racism and classism
There are PLENTY of African-Americans who are INCREDIBLY racist. And classism has been around for thousands of years, a lot of it starting in Africa. Incidentally, virtually everyone in the world is mixed race.
That door swings both ways.
European racism? Racism is global, anyone can be racist. You just need a harebrain, any kind of intolerance and a bigoted prejudice all in equal measure.
How do you not know. They aren't hiding family. They even look black. Bigger question is why is it important. Do you like them more now?
Can you believe this sh-t is still going on? Are these people ever going to just die off without having kids to pass this sh-t on to?
There's no "race" which labels people due to the color of their skin; we're all of one race: the HUMAN race.
Thank you jesus

I am 3/4 white and 1/4 African..I look Scandinavian (like my father's heritage). I am blonde, green eyed and cafe au lait skin..
my Mum had black hair very dark skin and was often mistaken for my service nanny when she pushed my pram in London parks...which always made her laugh.
Weirdly enough, Rashida's sister left a prestigious school, to go to an all Black school in the hood. She said she felt more comfortable there. Look it up.. I think it depends on how you perform. Why would the industry not be ready for Carmen Ejogo? She looks like a lot of light skin actresses. BS
To be honest with you every single one of the actors and actresses that appear to be European also have very broad afro phenotypes
I think that’s why they’re listed because there are some actors and actresses that we can tell are biracial and some have a phenotype where they can easily disguise it
Race is a social construct. You all are hung up on Colorism.

To cut a long story short: Not too long ago , people like this(Meaning only the ones who don't look African in this video) would have been referred to as quadroons & octoroons. During slavery, most of them would have been enslaved unless some ancestor, a relative or they themselves would have purchased their freedom . Another option was to run away, to Cananda or Europe to live as a white person. Hendrik Cesar who persuaded Sarah Baartman to go to Europe was a "free Black". Free Blacks were formerly enslaved non white people of the Cape colony regardless whether of African or Asian origin. Cesar was perceived as white in the UK and France. The only difference today is that most of these people have fathers of African origin who often themselves have inherited a lot of European dna but under less favourable circumstances.
Me...i am of African, east indian & Irish decent. I really don't care what ppl think...i would tell em they need to mind their own business. All i can say is i make no apologies for who i am, don't get mad because i am crazy good looking...and my kids too & i love God.
I'm African American, White, American Indian and my Birth Certificate says Colored!
Did this YT poster know science says there has never been a living human on this planet with no African heritage?
They look human but the system doesn’t allow people to look human because of injustices that Africans are constantly facing in certain countries.
I think we are all mixed…
Who decides what is the race of a person that comes from different racial backgrounds.?How you choose which race is the official one? If I am half black and half white, which one is more important than the other? Who sets the standard to decide that? When you are born , you don’t feel your color, is the people around you who talks about it. Why do people have to explain their background? Do Irish descendants people need to mention it wherever they go?
In our black family, it seems the mixed children have a harder time with their black roots. But we love the little zebras anyhow.
Lots of people who fuse those relationships don't take in on how this can really damage their children. I have several brothers and sisters that are biracial and they tell me the huge challenges that they go through.
And a lot of people also don't know the true origin of many people in Mexico, Vietnam, China, and indigenous of this land the so-called America. The above mention all roots from The Motherland Africa. The original indigenous of this land were not light skinned,nor was the original Asians. All migrated from Africa and were dark skin, from black, brown, brass,to red bone.
Tessa, you Black. The Rapper, you Black.
This has caused a lot of psychological problems in mix children lives.

It’s so sad how the concept of race binds people. Especially black people, who often are the ones who carry the burden of race
The binding is coming to an end. I think Kamala will win because I think God has Donald where he is so that His real people would rise up, speak up, stand up for our lives and our version of reality that came from Him. Don’t say “so sad”. Say “so bad, so not right, so done”.
Someone said that God made us all. And be what you are, be proud! Im a proud, black Christian man. Who has always been proud of my race.
