mixed kids: face the same oppression of either side or even both of their mix

mixed kids: get told to not speak out for their oppression

mixed kids: literally get fetishized or even CREATED by whites as “the goal perfect child”

mixed kids: automatically get told they should have more confidence because being mixed is “exotic”

mixed kids: can get put out of one or both of the races they’re mixed with

mixed kids: get told they have privilege even if they’re mixed from two underprivileged groups

mixed kids: get mocked and questioned if they don’t look “enough” like a race their mixed with

mixed kids: get SPOKEN FOR by non mixed people

mixed kids: are not recognized as a separate area of racism that can only be spoken for by mixed people

mixed kids: get murdered or have the bible thrown in their face for being interracial

mixed kids: have people literally fake being mixed, which means people questioning all mixed people

mixed kids: are used as mechanisms to portray “a perfect society” thus making them feel as though they need to be perfect. We know where that leads

I cannot tell you how much shit I’ve seen in my whole goddamn life that relates to ALL of this. If you are mixed with white- yes you have some privilege there. That’s obvious, as well with colorism. But that’s not what this post is about as that should be common sense by now. But you have every right to embrace your other culture and speak on YOUR culture. If you’re mixed with two underprivileged groups goddamn go OFF. I’m so fucking tired of being poked and prodded at for my race. I’m not a guessing game, none of us are.
