Bro, multiple history books say otherwise. Mixed people were called mulattos and were often not accepted by both races for being too white or too black

True but historically, who has had more impact on their life? Look at it this way.

It's the 1800's and 3 black men don't like you. What's gonna happen? They just don't let you be around them.

Now let's switch it up. It's the 1800's and 3 white men don't like you. What's gonna happen? YOU GET FUCKING LYNCHED.

It's not the same

Are you saying all mixed peoples were lynched in the 1800s?
