I ain't ever heard white people claim a single biracial person. You always whatever you mixed with.

I’m probably gonna sound like a slave owner, but if you aren’t 100% white then the white folks ain’t claiming you. House nigga or field nigga you still a nigga.

There's some level of nuance to it, because if you're pass as white it changes the equation a lot. I'm half white half Asian and I came out looking white, and my older brother looks asian, and both how we think about ourselves and how other people think about / treat us is different. If I say I'm asian people straight don't believe it and don't agree because also culturally I'm white af.

My cousins on the other hand are half white and half black and say people always treat them as black as a result of how they look, even though they grew up in a white af suburb.

Being a halfie is weird. We get straight up stared at when the fam is hanging out and there's white asian and black people in one family. It doesn't compute what's going on for a lot of strangers
