[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are Americans who live in Mexico in the winter (snow birds).  They say it depends on if you are white or non-white. If you're non-white (black, Asian, etc...) they say the Mexican people will feel sorry for you and you will be fine. If you're white, I'm not sure. My in-laws are white and all is well now but say the anti-American sentiment is growing with regards to Trump because most Mexicans aren't even immigrating to the USA, so it's an affront to them to suggest otherwise. The influx of immigrants are South Americans who come through Mexico. The Mexican government had been working with the USA to try to curb that, but now the Mexican people are calling on the Govt. to stop and let the USA deal with it on their own since they've been so disrespectful to Mexico.

OP here. This is interesting. We are an interracial family -- husband is black, I'm white but somewhat racially ambiguous (frequently asked what I'm "mixed with") and of course our daughter is biracial. Wonder what that would mean for us. Maybe if I wear my Star of David necklace I'll get lumped in with the other two? :)[/quote]
