The thing is mixed families are really not common. Outta all the mixed kids i knew most of them lived with a white mom

I was looking in the wrong part of the internet for normal reactions, you're right.

So it's not enough that biracials take roles from full black people, but now they want to take more roles from black people by making more interracial couples to create biracial children to feel more represented?

I still like her but...

the director took it even further and casted a girl with 2 black parents in real life and gave her a white father thats supposed to symbolically represent "Jesus"

I don't trust half-cacs unless they renounce their white side

otherwise they still retain some identification and empathy with whiteness

The white father was a deadbeat in the movie, right? So I ain’t mad at a cac taking that role .

Better than a brotha being cast as a deadbeat.

Im so sick and tired of watching movies and shows. Nowadays its hard to come across them showing two black parents. shyt is weird

I saw something about that in the other thread, but I will reserve my comments on that until I see the movie. I think that might be a coincidence, but I can't blame some black people for thinking the white savior imagery is true.
