    I sorry if I came off that way.I would never say anyone should deny their heritage,that was not my intent.Also I do know the majority of the black population here are not pure bloods.I also have no problem with a person saying or being mixed.Did you know alot of the involuntary captives came here mixed already;and that the mixing never stop?

    Sorry I meant to say; ‘just black to you’. Which is a comment I’ve read often on this site.

    I don’t get it.
    Why when a white person has black ancestry ( and you couldn’t tell the person has black blood) the person is considered white or mutliracial.

    But if someone ‘looks black’ the rest of their background is denied?

    And yes I have a problem with this. Why deny the rest?
