[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think MANY AAs feel slighted by biracials who identify as biracial as opposed to solely AA. I think the solution is for biracial to choose their own race as opposed to anyone (black or white) making that choice for them. I think some AAs will be upset by this and make that difficult.[/quote]

I see how you threw in "some" and "many" but I still disagree with you.  No AA people I know gives 2 shits how a biracial person chooses to identify.  At most I was asked "what race are you", I answered and that was that.  You are giving yourself way too much importance here thinking this is an issue for AAs.  Now if you're a biracial who turns their nose up when a black person even looks at you out of fear of being perceived as one of them (how about that for a non often discussed topic?) then yeah, you probably have been on the receiving end of a lot of grief.[/quote]
I don't know what race you are, but you're altogether nasty and presumptuous. I hope you're right though, that blacks give two .... about biracials. They really shouldn't. They should just leave them be. That's all biracials want to begin with.[/quote]
