[quote=Anonymous]Guessing my ethnicity doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when someone says I look "exotic". Or when I tell them "I'm just Black" and they want specific heritage info. Usually this is a White person who doesn't seem to get that a lot of Black Americans can't trace their heritage for centuries as easily as a White person may be able to. I mean, yeah, I can do an ancestry DNA test that shows what parts of Africa my ancestors came from, but ultmately, I have no connection to those places. It's not like my grandmother came from there and told me stories about "back home". A lot of Black and Brown people don't have that luxury.[/quote]
