Yes, POC. No, it will not help for college admissions.

Barack Obama is not half-Indian. What is wrong with you?

I am and no one would guess I'm half Indian unless I tell them. My white side of my family is really pale, and the Indian site is quite light-skinned. Most members of the Indian side of the family get mistaken for Latinos.

So I'm not really sure what I'm classified as. If multiracial is an option I pick that.

I am half Indian and half white, and I definitely consider myself mixed race. Because I am, and more to your point I'm not white, so yes I am a person of color. I don't walk around spouting it off, but I am proud of my mixed heritage. Why would I consider myself White?

I would say yes. My son is half Indian and half Irish and is definitely a person of color/diversity student. He’s in a private grammar school currently but I don’t know if it helped with admission or not.

Former President Obama said a half-Indian/half-Caucasian was a person of color? When did he say that?

Yes, social media follows the one drop rule when determining if you are a POC.

Yes.

Not for college but for lower school.
