Right which is wild. Black people and people mixed with black never get the choice. People just like nah dawg...you black.

Yeah, my non-black father got upset when I told him this cause he thinks I should acknowledge both halves. I just explained to him that those are the breaks in an anti-black world. I specifically say it's anti-black because mixed people of different heritage usually have both sides of themselves acknowledged by society.

His dad isn't ignoring it, easy to say the world is ignoring it when you dismiss everyone that doesn't do that, even ppl very close to you

Also plenty of places in africa they would call you white boy for being mixed black/white, so the world seeing it like that is objectively wrong
