He never said nor implied that it was. That's the nationality of one of his parents, who happens to also be of a non-white race. You can be half German, half Chinese, half American, half whatever nationality YOURE half of. Simply stating this doesn't mean to equate this nationality to a race of its own by the same name.

+RevucumberTechUSA One thing is he if he says "Half American Half Mexican", when, by deduction, because most of the American population is white and most of Mexican population is mestizo (mix of Indigenous and White), that this his mix. But he didn't. He said "half White half Mexican". And what about the white Latinos (and it's not a small number)? And if it's a video about "Biracial" people, considering this, in this crazy "race" logic of this world, why he is on it, being 1/4 or maybe less, Indigenous, which is the other thing but white about him? This video it was just bad planned. Buzz Feed have to be serious about things if they want to talk about it.

So many people are suffering because of people who don't think like you (us), and it's not up to every victim to say "well screw everybody I'll be who I am" because reality is that social constraints make it very hard for them. It would be nice if more people realized what you think, but reality is that a lot of people are perpetrators of these prejudices and people who have racial privileges are not in the position to accuse the victims.

Hate fuels pride and pride fuels hate. Victims become proud of their hardships. Being proud will make you a victim because people will tear you down when you're happy. It's an endless cycle in the US because "BE PROUD OF YOURSELF" is a major American motto. That applies to physical appearance (race, nationality, size) and achievements. Its pretty complicated and I hope that made sense. Race is an issue because we have loud racist and loud victims. Both are proud of their side of the story and butt heads all the time. Pride also creates closed mindedness so you don't try to find a middle ground nor try to change. You'd think racism would disappear the more advanced we get, but I work in retail and hear teenagers say very racist comments regularly. Racist people are proud of their own race and way of thinking. Then, they hurt someone for being *insert race*. That victim becomes prouder of who they are and will fight back by showing their pride. Thus, the racist will come again with a stronger attack. They go back and forth. Endless, unless one side finally stops existing. Sorry that it's complicated. I honestly hate it. Wished all US people would just be happy with each other and quit being too proud to change.

Maybe it's not such a big deal nowadays, but in my father's generation race was pretty important, i.e segregation was still a thing that happened. My father is Hispanic and in the south about 40-45 years ago there were black restrooms and white restrooms, both told him he wasn't supposed to be there. Luckily that doesn't happen today. Growing up as half Hispanic and half "white" I never realized that I was concidered biracial. Think of it like in Harry Potter, some full blooded people look at biracial people a mud bloods.

+mordam I agree with you and understand :) The point of the video wasn't primarily to say that they're upset whenever someone cant identify their ethnicity correct. It's to show how they felt growing up how they felt like they never fit in wherever they went. How they were told they had to be one thing and they couldn't be that one thing. That wherever they went that was how it was, and people would kind of push you away for not seeming to fit into their standards. I dont think this is just an issue in U.S.A. People who experience this and know how it feels aren't spoiled, ungrateful people who's problems should be counted as "nothing". And it honestly made me angry to see that people are saying that. If you haven't personally walked in their shoes and gone through what they have gone through then don't say anything. You have no right to tell them that their problems are insignificant. Because I'm sure there are people experiencing this also in developing countries whom have also felt that same feeling. Im sorry I jusy felt like ranting that to anybody who is willing to read this comment. I just think you shouldn't tell somebody that their problems are stupid unless you have suffered the same way they have. Only then can you truly see what they've gone through

I mean I've always gotten my feelings hurt when my Mexican friends would hang out with eachother all the time soley because they wet both Mexican , and when I mentioned I was half Mexican, they would laugh and say " No you're black" then wouldn't gave me the same bond of culture because of it. Then for my other side there were like 2 black girls at my school who didn't like half black girls for some reason I know it sound exaggerated but I'm being legit they upfront told me they didn't want to talk to me because I wasn't " really " black. So the thing is both sides said that I wasn't really a part of them and it kind of hurt. But yeah I'm just explaining the rejection part they make it seem dramatic and not necessarily as it is.

+footy facts Just because you don't face issues with being biracial doesn't mean we all don't. I've had a really tough time growing up half white and half black especially living in such a racist prejudice community. I'm glad you had it easy but for a lot of us biracial people life is a struggle. Im rejected by my white peers for trying to be "too black" and I'm rejected by my black peers for white passing. Although I admit this video should have been more about the feeling of not belonging to a certain community and not just people not recognizing their races.

willy wonka it's kind of hard to explain, but let me give you an example. I am half Chinese half Belgian and I grew up in Belgium. I've been stared at for most of my life because I obviously don't look mainstream Belgian. Even though I speak, eat, live and feel as a Belgian, some people still don't accept me as a Belgian. They tell me I look Asian or maybe Hispanic. Whenever I go to China to visit my family, I don't really get accepted over there as well. This is because I don't speak Mandarin as well as my family members in China and I don't look full Chinese. So conclusion: mixed people, like me, often get rejected in both cultures. It's not really about whether or not we are identified, it's about whether we are being accepted or not in a society. If you take a plate of rice for example and there is 1 rice grain that doesn't look white nor black. It might taste the same and have the same form as a white rice grain, but you'll always treat and experience it differently.

Jonathan Xu I get what you're saying! And of course that has been hard for you and everyone who's mixed. I was talking about them in the beginning saying "I have to explain that I am half white half Mexican" and etc because if you look different than the majority people are gonna be curious and ask you about it. I think that failing to guess your ethnicity is normal because you don't look at someone and automatically know where they come from. For instance probably when you went to China people didn't know that you were half Belgian but that didn't make you sad, I expect. One thing is what I've said other is saying that 'oh but you don't look *enter any race here*'. Even if people aren't being purposely mean saying that you don't look like the race you belong to is harsh.

Small Rant: Everyone's always talking about how race is important and how you should be proud... except for when it comes to mixed raced people... Mixed people are just being overly sensitive and dramatic when quite literally... It is very common for them to be outcaste, bullied and confused about their social identity because they don't immediately fall under a larger category. It's facing an extra prejudice to their person... and somehow that's not as bad as being discriminated against as one race? Sure they might be "passing" as something else visually... but they don't associate with that... These comments are so negative for no reason. People are allowed to be upset over their own struggles... and you don't have to specifically agree because you don't relate! these are entirely other people with different lives. Imagine telling someone about their gender... you wouldn't unless you were completely insensitive.

No, race is not important and should never be something to be proud of. Only when you should care about your skin color is when you're buying sunscreen. If you want to know your identity, check your passport, unles you're member of some minority as Amish or member of native tribe. Don't be proud of your genetic, but on your achievement. I wish Americans would care about their character as they care about their ancestry.
@RaverGasm3 жыл бұрын
Huh... you just said It's not important while also expressing why it was important... Amish people are not minorities... That is a chosen lifestyle. I'm about 5 different ethnic minority groups and don't live in America. The passport thing also doesn't make sense! but I understand what you we're talking about I guess... I agree that it should not be the defining factor of a persons personality but I was not talking about any of that. @@puclopuclik4108

not being able to be immediately identified as their race(weak problem imo) but what rest of the comment section seems to miss the part where they talked feeling cultureless and unwanted by both their races which is a real problem (identity crisis and being ostracized) and the video didn't even mention racial purists. tl;dr the video missed important topics and instead whined about trivial bs and the comment section is cancerous

Wait, so what exactly is the struggle? They're upset cause people can't figure out what race they are by looking at them? And they're upset because "I don't fit into a stereotype based off how I look". Isn't that a good thing? I thought that was the whole goal of ending racism. For other people to get to know you based off your personality and your actions as a human being, instead of being stereotyped based off how you look. Isn't that a, dare I say..... privilege?
