am i considered black or white?

Question

Answer 1

your whoever you want to be. i am the same way except my dad is black and my mom is white. i too had struggled with it, until i discovered that i didnt want to be labeled

Answer 2

You are both black and white and 1/16 Asian. If you want to choose a race you can choose either- but you are compose all three- that is a fact! Choosing a race is a preference you make.- I don't think there is any truth to the rumor that you are what you're dad is- or a lot of black people would be considered white- and we all know that isn't true.

Answer 3

You have the best of both worlds but truthfully you are a black asian with a white father just consider yourself bless . And you are human don't worry so much it is what it is

Answer 4

You are whatever citizen you are; what country you live in. You are black, white & asian and you have genes from all these races. Being white could be anything; caucasians are usually a mixture of many races. So, if you live in American, you are an American and so forth.

Answer 5

to say that ur white is to deny ur moms part in having u ,are u going to do that ? and to say that ur black is also to say ur father has no part in ur birth .ur a beautiful young women and one day no one will care what color u are , because no one will be able to tell the difference by then. but for now u would be classified as a mixed breed , however ur possibly right and can say ur white ,but will that change who u are or the color of ur skin .be proud of who u are and whom u come from without both of ur parents there is no u,!!! and ur beautiful

Answer 6

You belong to the human race like all the rest of us. I have never seen or will ever see a person colored completely white or black. Everyone falls in between. Join the rest of us and celebrate your human brethren. We are all one race each with a unique identity.

Answer 7

My husband is black and I, myself, is Asian. And we have a 22 month old son, as my husband puts it...if you have any black in you, nomatter what, you're automatically black...lol...

All in good humor, of course.

You are simply biracial, mixed, multi-racial...whatever. Whether you're a quarter this, half this, 1/10 that....whatever...you are all of whatever your two parents are.

It's all beautiful in the end :)

Answer 8

A zebra died and went to heaven. He asked St Peter if he was black with white stripes, or if he was white with black stripes. St Peter responded, there is your mother, ask her. His mother said, "you are who you are." The zebra went back to St Peter and said, "What does that mean?" St Peter responded and said "It means you are white with black stripes." "How do you know that?" queried the zebra again. St Peter replied, "If you were black with white stripes, she would have said, "You is what you is." This may seem like a cruel joke, but the moral is, what you are depends on how you carry yourself through life.

Answer 9

It doesn't really matter what your mix is , be proud of what and who you are. What I can tell you for sure is by genetics you are the best of what both of your parents had to offer. You need not feel like you are one or the other and anyone that tells you that you don't belong is ignorant. Be proud of your ethnicity and embrace both cultures as your own.

Answer 10

THE AMERICAN GOV MADE THIS RULE THAT IT IS WHAT YOUR FATHER IS AND THAT IS WHITE. BUT IN MY FAMILY YOU ARE YOU DON'T MAKE THE WORLD PUT A LABEL ON WHO YOU ARE . GIRL YOU ARE ALL MIXED UP WITH BEAUTY STUDY ALL OF YOUR HISTORY AND GO ON AND LIVE YOUR LIFE.

Answer 11
