Should Blatant Racial Ignorance Be Tolerated?

Question

A y.answers person called 'silly f**t'(haha) said that i should make life easier on myself and describe myself as either black or white or asian.

How can i do that if i have an equal amount of each?

When i need to, I describe my skin color as light brown, because thats what it is, i'm mixed race, neither black nor white, but both and more!

This gal told me that i should save time and basically call myself black or white.

When race matters, Why should i have to choose between my mother and my father, just to save other peoples energy?

Do you think she was wrong, or am i wrong?

Answer 1

Your right saying that you are mixed race in my opinion. But you dont need to prove your race to anyone.

Answer 2

Yes, it is expression.  Why should we turn a blind eye to facts for the sake of being politically correct?

Answer 3

People are going to call you what they call you and there really is no sense in arguing with them.  I'm Black, African-American and what ever else they want to call me whether I like it or not and there is nothing I can do about it.  So I don't even bother.  Frankly I couldn't even care less anymore.

I am who I am because this is who I choose to be.
