DARK SKIN IS BLACK AND LIGHT SKIN IS NOT GET OVER IT. WE NEED TO STOP MIXED UP WITH UGLY PALE RACIST WHITES AND NON BLACK PPL AND MAKE MORE REAL DARK/BROWN SKIN BLACK SONS/KIDS BLACK LOVE THE BEST! OBAMA IS NOT BLACK HE WAS WHITE/JEWS PROJECT TO DESTROY REAL DARK SKIN BLACK PPL, KIDS, RACE AND CULTURE PLS MY BLACK PPL WAKE UP!
Reading the comments on here, I see black americans are as ignorant as your white counterparts! We could all use an update on education from europe! Mixed ppl are bi-racial. Never black or white, they are both! Doesnt even matter considering ALL races come from AFRICA!! The black woman started civilization, Bing It! Besides mixed is beautiful if it wasnt there wouldnt be asian, arabs, native ppls, samoans, hispanics, spanish, eskimos, or any other yellow, red, brown color
@KingEWill85 I like your comment. I am mixed (black and white) and I do acknowledge the fact that all races descend from Africa...So technically everyone is a shade of black lol
@KingEWill85 Black Americans have adopted the racist one drop rule as their defacto standard so therefore biracial people dont exist for them. A number of biracials have been brainwashed by this insisting that a parent is white but they are black. Illogic in action.
The black community in this country needs help on this issue- a lot of resentment towards biracial among blacks in US.
@MultiSmartass1 Blacks don't need help, society does. In America, if you look more white or something other than Black, they will more readily accept you. People calling themselves Biracial know this, and therefore clam biracial. The term biracial is inaccurate since most AAs have European add mixture, example my DNA, as an AA shows 55% sub-Saharan African, 40% Euro and 5% native american, and I didn't even know this. This is an example that supports the DNA research on AAs, we are all mixed.
@cjfl1962 Actually, Biracial does not mean mixed per se.
Biracial is a very specific term that means you have parents of differing races.
Simply having some mixed heritage does not make you biracial.
Therefore your points excludes AAs.
A number of African- Americans may have some other ethnic or racial heritage floating in their DNA but they are not biracial because they had black or black-claiming parents.
@MultiSmartass1 Biracial (Bi = 2 equal parts) is not accurate, scientifically, since there's no much thing as pure races. Example, in my case, my DNA is: 55% African 40% Euro and 5% native american and i marry an Irish woman, scientifically, I can't say that our kids are biracial, their DNA would not reflect a 50%-50% genetic match. "Had Black or claiming Black parents" means nothing because there are lots of White people floating around with a Black Grand Mama in the closet... AKA...passing.
@cjfl1962 Actually, Biraciality is based on parentage not percentage.
You are considered black, have a child with this Irish woman, therefore your progeny is biracial because he or she has inherited racial characteristics from both parents-each of different race.
Percentage has nothing to do with it.
The Bi in Biracial means two different races. Nothing about equal or diluted parts.
Take nature, a mule is the offspring of Horse and and Donkey. No one looks at Mule and says its a horse only.
@MultiSmartass1 Going off of your reasoning "Bi meaning 2 different races" than the majority of AA's, per research are at least 20% Euro. So, whether you look like Barack Obama,Halley Barrie or Oprah, all AA,s should be considered Bi-racial. However, we both know the term bi-racial now days is used by people who have a non-Black parent to differentiate themselves from their Black side. It is nothing more than the old "Light vs dark skin" B.S that has been going on for centuries in the U.S.A
@cjfl1962 Actually, light vs Dark skin has been going on INSIDE the AA community for years and has nothing to do with biraciality-which is a seperate issue. The skin issue is a class issue largely.
Whether most AA have 20% or more of Euro blood is irrelevent to biraciality.
Biraciality is based on parentage-nothing more or less.
By your logic, most AAs should not consider themselves black but "mixed people."
That argument is used to negate Biracials and what's more, blacks wont buy it.
@MultiSmartass1 It has everything to do with biraciality. Biracial people, were mulattoes in the past, typically were light skinned with Euro features, they were treated better but not equal, they also look down their noses at their darker skinned cousins in the Black community. This caused a riff between dark and light Blacks which is present to this day. AAs should've been considered mix from the start, but racist whites incorporated the "ONE DROP RULE" and we know the rest of that story.
@MultiSmartass1 Most Bi-Racial people are partial to the non-Black side of their family...ie, Tiger Woods. Answer this truthfully, if YOU are bi-racial (white/Black) and you are married or will get married, who did you marry, would you have considered a Black person or would you prefer a Non-Black, probably white, and truthfully ask yourself WHY! As I said be honest with yourself...
@cjfl1962 Iam not married so I cant answer your question specifically.
It also depends where you live and what the ethnic composition is.
I dont live around black people and I never grew up with them.
Unlikely, I will marry one for demographic reasons then again, i dont want to get married anyway.
As for biracials being partial to non-black side of family, that's an assumption.It may be true in some cases and not in others. In any event, who cares? None of anybody's business.
@MultiSmartass1 "marriage question" was hypothetical, to point out biases most Biracials have against their black side. It was meant to draw out embedded bias that you may have based on the social construct that light, white or non-black (FOR WHAT EVER THE REASON) is better, I'm not drawing on assumptions, this is reality. This preference that Biracials have is tied to the racism that's been in this country since conception. Yes, it is no one's business but society doesn't operate that way.
@MultiSmartass1 White society does care about racial heritage. I'm from the south and I have relatives who look white but have Black in them, it's call passing.I know of people who were passing, dating Whites. The White family was alright with the couple until they found out that the person had Black in them. This is when the racist attitude came to the surface. I don't have anything against biracials, I have a problem with bias/racism/prejudice no matter where it shows its ugly head.
If you want to deal with that, I would suggest you go to another Youtube video page and bitch about that.
It doesnt sound if the person you mentioned passed. If they had, the white family wouldnt know about their black roots. It just sounds if the person simply didnt disclose it-not the same as passing. Passing implies a person pretending to be something they arent-lighter blacks pretending to be white.
@MultiSmartass1 She was passing because she was pretending to be a "so called" pure white person. Also, she was under estimated the deep rooted prejudice that people have but doesn't not come out until a situation like this.
@cjfl1962 Passing means pretending to be white. Definition not necessary. Its self-explanatory,
also, passing was and is done because of racism and "deep rooted prejudice" not because of ignorance of. If someone didnt care about racism, No one has passed for fun-its a serious decision.
Do you even understand the issues you talk about? Doesnt seem you do.
@MultiSmartass1 If an AA has 20% euro and 80% African, doesn't that make him or her Bi-Parentage, because their DNA comes from TWO SOURCES? I confused because you seem be changing the description as we go along.
@MultiSmartass1 Scientifically, there is no such things a pure race. All I have tried to convey to you that we are all 99.9% the same. So get off the Bi-racial BS, or at least speak on what your real intent is. Most Bi-Racial people are partial to the non-Black side of their family...ie, Tiger Woods.
@cjfl1962 Hahaha! This is a typical category error type fallacy I encounter with people who are anti-biracial like yourself.
First, you postulate a contention never raised or argued just to shoot it down i.e straw man. No one mentioned the purity of race except you. I stated that biraciality is about parentage not percentage-which was your obsession.
Second, you contradict yourself. If there is no pure race then why put down biracials for not labeling themselves solely as black? BS
@MultiSmartass1 I'm not anti-biracial, I question/challenge racist/biased mindset that i know are out there...I don't believe in race. This term was invented by white people to keep oppressing others for their own benefit. Consider this> You as a Bi-racial (in truth, partial to your NON-BLACK side) person, did you benefit more (in real terms, not superficial ones) from your identifications as bi-racial or the laws resulting from the Civil Rights moment led by your Black ancestors..WHICH ONE?
@cjfl1962 Hahaha! If you dont believe in race than why are you always criticizing Biracials for supposedly being biased? Since race is mindset or construct that supposedly doesnt matter, why then does it matter to you if biracials favored one race or the other?
It matters because you believe in race like a lot of other people.
You keep contradicting yourself endlessly. Race doesnt matter but bi's only favor the non-black side...called yourself mixed is wrong since blacks are already mixed.
@MultiSmartass1 I don't believe in race but we do have to counter what society tries to dictate to us about race. This what I challenge, I don't what people look like, I look at the heart...period. However, i'm not stupid, i know there is a lot of racism and bias out there. You'd be a fool not to understand this.
@cjfl1962 Everything you write is just so contradictory that it is hard to take you seriously.
Actually, it has taken years for biracial people to be acknowledged by such in this society because of racism and bias. So, what's wrong with them just being themselves?
Dont bother me with any twaddle. You are too confused.
@MultiSmartass1 I will leave you with this. As recent as 40 yrs ago, it was illegal for white people to marry anyone of another race. WHAT CHANGED ALL THE LAWS. You can hide your head in the sand and not acknowledge changes the Civil Rights Movement created. You can now lift your head up as a s"so called" biracial only because of the mile stones of this movement and by nothing else. Because, until that point you were nothing more than another "N" peace and have a wonderful biracial life.
@MultiSmartass1 I'm not bitter, I have experienced racism as a Black person from all groups. Here's one for you not all Bi-racials are treated the same. As an example, if you are half Asian and half white, vs half Asian and half Black, who do you think society will favor. My Black friend is married to an Asian and her sister is married to a white guy. Guess who's children get shunned as an embarrassment to the family. In many circles you'd be looked at as half Black...not as biracial.
@MultiSmartass1 Listen, I don't need your help. I'm just trying to have a discourse with on the subject of racism and all the issues surrounding this very sensitive subject to include the history bi-racial people in this country. You get me wrong, I'm just trying discuss the issue instead of everyone hold things in. we learn, grow and reduce hate when we freely discuss issues.
@MultiSmartass1 I will leave U with this. If you are Bi-racial meaning (Half black, half white) then guess what you are one me, A PART BLACK PERSON. You are a fool to think otherwise. You will remember my words one day, when that White, Arab, Irish, Asian father finds out his child is dating a so call Bi-racial. All he is going to think is this person is half BLACK, my grandkids will not be pure and nothing else. Furthermore, get off your high horse, we're all part of the same human family.
@cjfl1962 Actual Biracial does not mean Half white. half black. That is simply one type of biracial person. One could be any mixture. Get your facts straight.
Part black means biracial-no difference. That's sort like arguing something is half instead of 50%-same thing. You can chnage the language but you cant change the reality.
@MultiSmartass1 Come on now, you're using my argument "one could be any mixture.". Listen, I don't care what a person calls them self, (bi-racial, mulatto, dog, cat) I see it all as nonsense and superficial, an excuse for people to draw distinctions between themselves and other humans, in order to get some kinda of upper hand. To me these so called Bi-racials (black parent/white parent) think that society will treat them better with that tag, and guess what, THEY ARE RIGHT, to a certain extent.
@MultiSmartass1 Racism has many facets, being bi-racial doesn't exclude from this issue. Remember, bi-racials (white slave owner father/black slave mother) has always been part of history of racism and oppression in USA. Mulattoes, although treated a little better than their darker cousins, were still slaves, nothing more than a number on the slave owners inventory.Except this fact in history and learn from it. In the end, as I have always said, we are all the same, nothing more, nothing less.
@MultiSmartass1 "Shut up." That's not very nice. I thought I was having an intelligent discourse with you on the many aspects of race (a social construct invented by Europeans) in this world. I have never complained, I think I have presented my views to you in a very respectful and thoughtful manner.
I need to move to Britain, America sux its full of racist biggots and sheeple, nonbelievers and ppl who have eaten up all the bs they feed us in school, church and on tv. This Beach is sexy! Looks like Europe knows the deal and has for a very long time! America is a hatemongering, hate breeding nazi state that disowns its own. Why is the rest of the world hip, but America is in the dark, still telling lies and deceiving us from the truth of the world. Black isnt going away, cuz if we do its O.V.
I'm mixed & live in Britain....it isn't all it's cracked up to be.
The racism here is sly & clandestine.....plus it's also very classist here.
The rich hate the poor, the poor hate themselves, the workers hate ppl on benefits & everybody hates immigrants.....Britain is full of hate.
If you're mixed in Britain you WILL be seen as black (unless you do something that white ppl think is cool like play rugby or something then you can maybe "upgrade" your status to "half black" LOL)
@supahdupahguy81 This is a surprise to me! I thought Europeans were more accepting and more open minded than Americans. America has had a legacy of racism and bigotry, I guess they got it from their European cousins.
@supahdupahguy81 - Do you affiliate more with your Black heritage? All the Mulatto people I know here in Holland, consider themselves Black, because they say: Black community is far more accepting of them. White people will VERY rarely accept mixed-race people.
Put it this way, i've lost count of the amount of times i've been called a "black cunt" or just been referred to as black....it even says "Afro-Caribbean" on my birth certificate. On the flip side i've never been called a "white cunt"or referred to as white in my entire life..
@supahdupahguy81 I can understand your pain man. I too, affiliate more with my Pakistani heritage. Although, my Grandmother is of Dutch, and Norwegian descent, I've never perceived myself as mixed. As soon as a white person comes to know of my mixed heritage, they treat me as if I'm abnormal.
@supahdupahguy81 Help me out here, I thought the Dutch where open minded people. In the USA, as a Black man, we always have issues of racism to deal with. I thought the Dutch were not so racist as there white counterparts in the states. Your thoughts please.
@777Satara That proves nothing. You're talking about how stupid memes fuck up your psychology in terms of self-identity and individualism. Those mulatto people you're talking about are obviously racist to themselves and people like them. And yeah, people like that deserve to be called a latin mule for their idiocy of an identity. We're talking about biological, genetical, geneaological truth.
And that acceptance is generally... shit. Derp. far more, yeah... get that fucking black nationalism, supremarcism, race bigottry, unle ruckus-like irony circumstances out of it, and then maybe you have a point. Until then, it's in the end a bullshit statement you made.
"VERY rarely"
Too ambiguous, it sounds like an exaggeration which you shouldn't do. Sorry.
Half-breed would be the most correct term... even if it is more politically incorrect, because it does describe the process of which your speaking. The best term might be mixed-heritage because it doesn't include the FALLACY of the CONCEPT OF RACE, but it does imply the interbreeding of people of more than one heritage.
IN terms of anthropological designations, those mixed individuals known as mulattos should properly be termed Afro-Caucasians on account of their constituting a biracial ethnic group made up of Caucasoids & Negroids, two of the three main racial classifications that constitute Homo sapiens sapiens, with the last being Mongoloids. Yet on account of socioeconomic status & bad history most mulattos usually choose to indentify with blacks on account of anti-white sentiment, espcially here in the US
@FIGHTFANNERD3 You couldn't possibly be referring to West Africans, could you? Your assumption I think applies more to Black Americans than to most Blacks worldwide.
@CharlieT98 how am i racist i never said mixed people arent human i said by saying half blood we instantly think harry potter, wizards and not human, u fuckin retard
@tool404 - These are racist terms used in the U.K, often without regard to what the person's ethnic makeup is as long as they are mixed. Since she did this for Nigeria TV, I would assume she is black and white.
this woman isnt even half-caste she looks white. but i guess she could pass for quarter-caste. in my book she is semi-white which means 95% white and 5% black.
@OBAMAisHalfCaste If one of her parents is of one race and the other is of another, that is the definition of being mixed (or, to use the term used here, "half-caste"). Don't get hung up on looks: that is a common fallacy. And since the prefix "semi-" means "half", calling her "semi-white" = "half white", not "95% white and 5% black" (as if she's a cup of coffee or something LOL)
@jalabi99 semi-white means almost white . just like when you say for example we are nearly into the semi days of agust. she is almost full white but not 100% white so she is semi-white. she cant be half-caste if her parents are not pure black and pure white.
@jalabi99 People do tend to get hung up on the way a person looks, I'm Black and from the southern part of the USA. I have relatives, if your were to look at them you'd think they were white, it is called passing because they look white instead of Black or mixed.
@OBAMAisHalfCaste - Her name is Eve Ahmed. She's half Pakistani, half English. Many mixed-race Pakistanis (European/White mixed), do tend to look more European than Pakistani.
I'm 1/4 Dutch, 3/4 Pakistani, most people here in the Netherlands see me as a dark-featured Dutch white boy. The only way people realise I'm mixed is due to my Muslim name.
Although, I personally feel more affiliation with my Pakistani heritage. I have viewed myself as a Pakistani through-out my entire life.
@777Satara Well you should be proud of both heritages, You,re not just pakistan alone since you where 50% Created Produced and Invented by a White European Dutch person.
"Half-caste" is such a sh***y term. I've heard even mixed people in England actually refer to themselves this way and I'm puzzled why they'd be so self-hating.

Blacks in America do not accept that they are mixed people but that they are black-period.
This is why they accepted the One Drop Rule because they believe one drop makes you black not mixed.

@MultiSmartass1 I will leave you with this. As recent as 40 yrs ago, it was illegal for white people to marry anyone of another race. WHAT CHANGED ALL THE LAWS. You can hide your head in the sand and not acknowledge changes the Civil Rights Movement created. You can now lift your head up as a s"so called" biracial only because of the mile stones of this movement and by nothing else. Because, until that point you were nothing more than another "N" peace and have a wonderful biracial life.

@cjfl1962 You seem obsesed with white people for some reason.
You are also off topic. Nobody is arguing about the civil rights movement except you for some strange reason.
Frankly, I dont care about whites-they can marry who they want. I dont care.
You know, I think you were that person who passed-that's why you have this weird attitude toward whites.
They rejected you and you got bitter.
Noboyd wants you-not even the balcks. poor baby.
hahahaha!

@MultiSmartass1 I'm not bitter, I have experienced racism as a Black person from all groups. Here's one for you not all Bi-racials are treated the same. As an example, if you are half Asian and half white, vs half Asian and half Black, who do you think society will favor. My Black friend is married to an Asian and her sister is married to a white guy. Guess who's children get shunned as an embarrassment to the family. In many circles you'd be looked at as half Black...not as biracial.

@cjfl1962 So what? Now you hate Asians too. What's wrong with you?
IBiracials get discriminated against in this society. Didnt I tell you this already?

@MultiSmartass1 Listen, I don't need your help. I'm just trying to have a discourse with on the subject of racism and all the issues surrounding this very sensitive subject to include the history bi-racial people in this country. You get me wrong, I'm just trying discuss the issue instead of everyone hold things in. we learn, grow and reduce hate when we freely discuss issues.

@cjfl1962 Look, this is a youtube video page about biraciality. Its not purely about racism per se.
If you want to discuss racism itself, you should find a youtube page that deals with that.
Your posts are uneven and irrational at times.I dont buy your explanation because I dont think you are at peace with yourself.
If you arent biracial, than you simply dont understand this issue and you have no business talking about this.
This is none of your business. You are not one of us.

@MultiSmartass1 I will leave U with this. If you are Bi-racial meaning (Half black, half white) then guess what you are one me, A PART BLACK PERSON. You are a fool to think otherwise. You will remember my words one day, when that White, Arab, Irish, Asian father finds out his child is dating a so call Bi-racial. All he is going to think is this person is half BLACK, my grandkids will not be pure and nothing else. Furthermore, get off your high horse, we're all part of the same human family.
cjfl1962 2 months ago
@cjfl1962 Actual Biracial does not mean Half white. half black. That is simply one type of biracial person. One could be any mixture. Get your facts straight.
Part black means biracial-no difference. That's sort like arguing something is half instead of 50%-same thing. You can chnage the language but you cant change the reality.
MultiSmartass1 2 months ago
@MultiSmartass1 Come on now, you're using my argument "one could be any mixture.". Listen, I don't care what a person calls them self, (bi-racial, mulatto, dog, cat) I see it all as nonsense and superficial, an excuse for people to draw distinctions between themselves and other humans, in order to get some kinda of upper hand. To me these so called Bi-racials (black parent/white parent) think that society will treat them better with that tag, and guess what, THEY ARE RIGHT, to a certain extent.
cjfl1962 2 months ago
@cjfl1962 If you think being biracial means an easy life, you're crazy.
Its often the reverse, a hard life-at least from the people I have talked to.
The fact is that racial distinctions have nothing to do with biracial people but the larger society-race distinctions have always existed.
American society has always drawn distinctions between races and still does.
Therefore biraciality is irrelevant to racism itself.
MultiSmartass1 2 months ago
@MultiSmartass1 Racism has many facets, being bi-racial doesn't exclude from this issue. Remember, bi-racials (white slave owner father/black slave mother) has always been part of history of racism and oppression in USA. Mulattoes, although treated a little better than their darker cousins, were still slaves, nothing more than a number on the slave owners inventory.Except this fact in history and learn from it. In the end, as I have always said, we are all the same, nothing more, nothing less.

If you're mixed in Britain you WILL be seen as black (unless you do something that white ppl think is cool like play rugby or something then you can maybe "upgrade" your status to "half black" LOL)

@supahdupahguy81 I can understand your pain man. I too, affiliate more with my Pakistani heritage. Although, my Grandmother is of Dutch, and Norwegian descent, I've never perceived myself as mixed. As soon as a white person comes to know of my mixed heritage, they treat me as if I'm abnormal.

@777Satara That proves nothing. You're talking about how stupid memes fuck up your psychology in terms of self-identity and individualism. Those mulatto people you're talking about are obviously racist to themselves and people like them. And yeah, people like that deserve to be called a latin mule for their idiocy of an identity. We're talking about biological, genetical, geneaological truth.

"Black community is far more accepting of them."
And that acceptance is generally... shit. Derp. far more, yeah... get that fucking black nationalism, supremarcism, race bigottry, unle ruckus-like irony circumstances out of it, and then maybe you have a point. Until then, it's in the end a bullshit statement you made.
"VERY rarely"
Too ambiguous, it sounds like an exaggeration which you shouldn't do. Sorry.

@KingEWill85 Its true that America is a racist country but there is plenty of racism in Britain and throughout Europe.
The difference is that people understand class in the UK and thoughout Europe and that is the big factor.
Whereas in the US, they have no understanding of how class works-until people get thrown out of their homes and lose their jobs.
I do agree with you that America is a racist nation and not accepting of biracial people even now.
I should know.

Enough of the RACE GAME.
Technically :
SINCE there is no such thing as race
(THERE ARE NO HUMAN SUBSPECIES).
Half-breed would be the most correct term... even if it is more politically incorrect, because it does describe the process of which your speaking. The best term might be mixed-heritage because it doesn't include the FALLACY of the CONCEPT OF RACE, but it does imply the interbreeding of people of more than one heritage.
ONLY ONE HUMAN RACE.

IN terms of anthropological designations, those mixed individuals known as mulattos should properly be termed Afro-Caucasians on account of their constituting a biracial ethnic group made up of Caucasoids & Negroids, two of the three main racial classifications that constitute Homo sapiens sapiens, with the last being Mongoloids. Yet on account of socioeconomic status & bad history most mulattos usually choose to indentify with blacks on account of anti-white sentiment, espcially here in the US

Half caste implies class which makes sense in a British context.
Caste as in India indicates a predetermined class structure.
The British throw that term around because the UK has been and always will be a class-based society.
The term isnt used in the US beacuse class is something studiously avoided in terms of discussion or discourse.

this woman isnt even half-caste she looks white. but i guess she could pass for quarter-caste. in my book she is semi-white which means 95% white and 5% black.
OBAMAisHalfCaste 9 months ago
@OBAMAisHalfCaste If one of her parents is of one race and the other is of another, that is the definition of being mixed (or, to use the term used here, "half-caste"). Don't get hung up on looks: that is a common fallacy. And since the prefix "semi-" means "half", calling her "semi-white" = "half white", not "95% white and 5% black" (as if she's a cup of coffee or something LOL)
jalabi99 9 months ago
@jalabi99 semi-white means almost white . just like when you say for example we are nearly into the semi days of agust. she is almost full white but not 100% white so she is semi-white. she cant be half-caste if her parents are not pure black and pure white.

@jalabi99 People do tend to get hung up on the way a person looks, I'm Black and from the southern part of the USA. I have relatives, if your were to look at them you'd think they were white, it is called passing because they look white instead of Black or mixed.

@OBAMAisHalfCaste - Her name is Eve Ahmed. She's half Pakistani, half English. Many mixed-race Pakistanis (European/White mixed), do tend to look more European than Pakistani.
I'm 1/4 Dutch, 3/4 Pakistani, most people here in the Netherlands see me as a dark-featured Dutch white boy. The only way people realise I'm mixed is due to my Muslim name.
Although, I personally feel more affiliation with my Pakistani heritage. I have viewed myself as a Pakistani through-out my entire life.
