Do you think people with mixed heritages are more at risk?

Question

As targets in society of hate,ridicule,envy,etc. The list can go on?
And if you are a person I am speaking of what words of wisdom can you offer.I once read somewhere that mixed heritges are at risk to do crimes and I really cant agree with that.

Answer 1

That's retarded. I'm mixed and it's made me feel more accepted and like I've had more of an identity because I identify myself as an individual instead of confining myself to a group. And I was raised well so crime is out of the question.

Answer 2

Personally I think what you read is bull,no offence to you though. I'm mixed with mixed parents and my neices/nephews are mixed but what I notice is that there is more likely to be discrimination form the group you are mixed with than form groups you aren't. Example when I'm around alot of Latinos for whatever reason they all look at me funny like I'm not supose to be there because I'm not fullblood Latina. But I think that if someone is part of a race that you are you should embrace them and help them learn that side of themselves.

But as far as crime goes I dont know what that meant is doesn't make any sense, most of the mixed people I know are very smart(ivy league smart) not trouble makers at all but yes I know 3 that went to jail in high school.

Answer 3

Huh? I always thought mixed children have always been lucky... I've known a lot of mixed race kids and they're all upper class and very educated. Very logical personalities...that's just my observaion though....

I've never seen them as targets either, although I can't say for sure since I don't live in their shoes...

Answer 4

WE ARE ALL MIXED! I do not know why people act like this. My mom is black and my dad is Asian. I say that i am black even though i look like Asian. And when i tell people my mom is black best believe they treat me like i am black! So i am just another black girl.
