[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are bi-racial (white/Asian) adults as hateful as many of these Black/White biracials posting. I Get that we all have different experiences, but I never felt the hate from the AA community. If I got any, it came from the other side. [/quote]
You sound very lucky. However, you don't get to discredit those whom have. This is what got us into this racism mess to begin with. People need to start getting honest and accepting their role in perpetuating racism. I'm grateful to be around good kind AAs who show me dignity and respect, but as a child I did not receive that treatment. People resented my appearance and called me terrible names. White people did the same, but I was treated much worse by the AA community. As an adult I chosen to raise my children in as diverse an area as possible. I can't shelter them from the world, but I can give them a chance to experience many different types of people so they can choose who their people are. I'm grateful that at my charter you would get the evil eye if you tried to make a biracial child, or a SNs child, or a child of gay parents, or a child without the typical background feel strange or abnormal. Enough of that.[/quote]
