let these women define who they want to be. The know calling themselves biracial don’t mean a ding dang thing in America. They are still black. PERIOD!

I remember first seeing Sallie Richardson in the movie “Posse” with Mario Van Peebles. I really liked the movie it is a very interesting movie.

I can definitely see the Italian side of her in her facial features but her skin tone gives that she also has African heritage. Beautiful!

She’s biracial but, like Paula Patton, defines herself as “Black/African American”. I’m surprised no one has commented about that.

She played in “Souix City” as a Native American as she usually does.

I always thought she was Native American and African American. I was floored when I found out she was biracial. She is one of the most exotic looking biracial girls I have seen, she doesn’t have the standard look biracial people have and her skin and hair are gorgeous!
