I am french and american and bi-racial "black and white". I just wanted to say that I am not a "confused" individual. I am black and white and love both parts of me and will not choose one or the other. My parents are an interacial couple and have been married for over 40yrs. We are well educated and are happy and have taken the good and bad from those who can not "understand" why we are the way we are. To those that are prejudice, get used to it, because the fate of the population will continue to grow to be predominantly multi and bi-racial most likely. Hooray! I love it!

i absolutely love your site! i think it is amazing to read everyones comments and i am especially interested in the issue of multiracial families. i feel that there is no problem what-so-ever with multiracial families as there are people from uganda in my family and i love them to peices. not liking multiracial families is ,i think, being racist in another way as they are all just the same as us but with a different skin colour!
i would really like it if you could get back to me about this as i am doing an essay at school about multiracial families and why people are so against them. thank you! Hayleigh Gray, aged 15!

Politicians in Canada never answer for their crimes, it;s disgraceful. My family has been destroyed by Corruption, we're left without even basic human rights. When the Government & Legal system are the Organized CRIME in CANADA, they honor CHILD RAPEST. The Federal Government is allowing the Credability & Reputation of the Police & The Legal System, to be distroyed to protect ONE Corrupt Lawyer, Politician, Judge, Child Rapest & now member of THE ORDER OF CANADA .This man has broken every law he swore to protect. Because this X-Justice Minister and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, raped and impregnated my 12 year old sister, and covered it up his entire career, no one will help us. To this day, no lawyer will represent me and the legal system will do nothing to help. The last lawyer I asked to represent me, told me, if any lawyer tried to represent you, it would mean the end of their career.. Visit my web site at http://maxpages.com/sexualabuse ask all your friends to e-mail our Prime Minister, Mr. Paul Martin, and ask him for Justice. pm@pm.gc.ca

I know it very hard being interracial. But when I trying to find my birth mother, and father, I didn't who I really am. At first, i thought that my spanish race was half Venezuelan, but the truth is that i'm half black american, half dominican, and half indian. I finally found my birth father, but till not my birth mother. My birth mother was half indian, and black. Yes, i bet she was very pretty, but my birth father is very handsome in his mid 40's. I came out find, and I love my adopted family very much. Now I know who I really am.

My father is half-Samoan, Irish, English, Scottish, and Dutch. My mother is Irish, Scottish, Dutch, Australian, French (both France French and Canadian French), German, and Native America (Passamaquoddy). So, I received my father’s Samoan surname and my mother’s white skin. This of course confuses people because, while I look extremely white (minus the body shape, which is very Samoan), I have a surname that doesn’t match whatsoever. People then continue to try and persuade me that it’s really Hawaiian, because I don’t look Samoan. I’ve seen my grandpa, his birth certificate, and pictures of his family. My father looks full Samoan (one couldn’t tell he has a white mother) so, I’m pretty sure I’m Samoan, thank you very much.

It's hard for my family in particular because the Samoan side of my family (my grandfather's family) doesn't talk to us, nor acknowledge us, because we are partially white. Then my grandma's side doesn't acknowledge us either, because we are all partially Samoan. Being disowned by both sides of my father’s family has been tough. It’s been especially tough going to the same school as my Samoan cousins, some of them knowing full well that they are so, yet not even getting a nod in the same direction because I’m a “white girl.” I think the whole time I have been in high school, maybe three of them acknowledged that I am Samoan and even said hi every once in a while.

When I was little, I used to come home so mad because I wasn’t brown. I used to hate my mother because she made me white, thus canceling out any link I had to “a culture.” I wanted to color myself with a brown marker, just so I would at least look like I was supposed too, to make the “white girl” names go away.

It doesn’t stop there, with me, however. I have two African-American cousins, two Puerto-Rican cousins, one Italian and two Mexican cousins, all who share the Samoan-White mix we received from our grandparents. A few times my aunt has been asked, “How could you do that to your babies?” because she had beautiful twin children with a black man. One of my cousins was picked on and beat up at school because he was “too white” (he’s probably one of the darkest out of all of us, but it was simply because he was partially white at well). I really don’t know how my brother is going survive, as he looks even whiter than me, with blonde curly hair and bright blue eyes (his afro is his only link to any Samoan traits).

A few times, I have been asked to pick one, white or brown, because I apparently can’t be both. It’s wrong to have more than one “race” in America. You have to pick one. If you pick the white one, you’re a racist. If you pick brown, you better look it, because otherwise you’re a liar.

I learned this lesson on, ironically enough, a civil rights trip. I went on a trip to the Deep South to visit the historical sights of the Civil Rights Movement of the 60s. It was interesting enough, though a few times I felt extremely guilty because I am part white (they frequently reminded us white students that we had nothing to feel guilty about, it wasn’t us who did, etc.). During a bus ride to one of the sites, we were reading about one of the civil rights leaders. I noticed that it said he was a quarter white, along with black. I thought this interesting, assuming that it was good thing. I brought it up to the man in charge of the whole trip (the one who started it) and he looked very sternly at me, as if I was trying to make trouble, and said, “He’s black.” I was confused, showed him the passage in the material he provided for us (all books of credible sources), and said, “But it says here that he’s part white.” The Director replied to me, “He’s black. He’s not white, he’s black.”

That never sat right with me. I kept thinking, “What’s wrong with being both? Is something wrong with that?” The whole trip was about equality and acceptance. It was about accepting one another for what we are, and loving those differences, yet here was the guy who started the trip, who said he promoted these things the trip stood for, yet he was saying, “This man is black. Just black. Not mixed.” Aren’t we supposed to love mixed races too? Isn’t it racism, the very thing that the Civil Rights leaders were fighting, to only acknowledge one ethnicity, to blot out the rest just because you’re black, Mexican, or Irish? It bothered me, still bothers me that one has to choose an ethnicity to identify with. That’s not right, because it shows embarrassment of who you are.

Be proud of your history, whether it is good or bad. Sure, the English and the Dutch have done terrible things, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to start saying, “I’m Samoan and that’s it!”

America, both white, black, brown, whatever, has never been able to deal with mixed people and quite frankly I’m sick of it. I’m white, Samoan, and Native American. I am proud to be all of those. I’m not going to claim one side or the other, because saying I’m one ethnicity isn’t going to make the others go away. That’s wrong to me. People should be proud of all of what they are, whether that is full, half, a quarter, one sixteenth, whatever.

We are what we are. We should be proud of having such a heritage.

I love this site and will link to it on my own. I started a support group for bi-racial adoptees. Its not a counseling group more like a peer support group with resources and a supportive environment to share expereicnes.

Curiousity led me here--I can appreciate your message, as I am mixed too: filipina and caucasian. Check out hapas.com in addition to this site. There are a lot more of us out there than you think...it is always refreshing to talk to someone who might be culturally similar.
