You must be from the UK, right? yea when I went there, mixed people were just considered mixed. It's been harder for us because we had the one drop rule for over a century. We're getting there, but there's still white AND black (as you can see by this thread) that have can't seem to wrap their heads around it.
see post.
It's only confusing to you because you are one race and can not wrap your mind around being 2. Many people can't. They are biracial, a hybrid, they are only asked to choose because people want to put people in brackets, and they cross lines, which blocks people from doing that. But, in reality, they ARE able to cross lines and be both. It's only confusing to everyone ELSE. To them, they are just both, if anything they must be frustrated people keep asking "which do you ID with", then when they say both, peoples brains go haywire.
Mixed with skittles and ratchet."I'm mixed with black, white, spanish, french, indian, creole and rainbow"

I don't see that. Point is it marginalizes our advancement as a people. I think those who believe white people don't make a distinction and can't tell the difference are ignorant of history. They INVENTED THE SAME SYSTEM YOU NEGROES ARE STATING THEY DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE OR DON'T PAY ATTENTION TOO.

never heard a mexican or rican say that tbh. Only when they come to the states. I've been to about 4 countries down south and all of them go by nationality, they only tell me which one they are because I ASK. If I don't ask, they simply go by nationality. Everytime I ask, they ask me why americans are so stuck on the categories. lol. basically they get annoyed that I ask for them to choose. Again, it's because I was brought up in a system where you have to choose.

White people are so full of sh*t. They know damn fukking well that if he wasn't the President, he'd be a nikka to them. His name is Barack Hussein Obama. If it wasn't well publicized that his mother was white, no one would have guessed different, because at first sight he looks like a black man. Which is why white people are so full of sh*t

Actually the rest of the world besides America has it correct. Dominicans and Puerto Ricans are correct in identifying as such considering the racial history and intermixing is completely different from one another. Each country is very different. Dominican Republic isn't the same as Brazil and so forth. I don't know what's so hard for us as Americans to get through our heads.
mexicans and ricans aren't from south america, that could be why?
whenever I visit my fam they're like 'eres negro' lol
but yes I agree, latinos go by nationality before anything else when identifying. for the most part they don't care if you're black white asian. but it still dont explain why no latino presidents or anything are never black, or even mixed with black. or why the females sex symbols are never black, etc. but i aint going to get into that whole conversation :
edit: actually trujillo was part black and he powdered his skin to look lighter .. racist puto

I'll post this again for anyone who missed it. Lol Breh there's a reason why we were enslaved and continue to be marginalized globally. White people aren't thinking about 2050. They thinking about 7045. That 400 year head start is multiplied by 20 in technological advances.
at you dudes really believe cause they call Barrack a negro the same way they call Wesley 'means they won't acknowledge his white ancestry very quick.I never said they don't make a distinction.i never spoke on that at all.I don't see that.

I was speaking for my self as what I consider people who are mixed.
I know for a fact white people make a distinction. My son was born with golden hair and super light skin. He looks just like me, our hair curls the same except his is finer, someone assumed I was the nanny.
