Coco @yukiasato I do too. I am mixed but considered black since my mom's black. So yes agree.

gtechrepublic @gtechrepublic Just curious if this is the same across different areas or not but did you grow up in a predominately black area? I did and my goodness, the amount of racism that existed there for blacks against whites was astonishing. I mean, I understand that most of the people in my area were older and more than likely experienced some form of racism in their lifetime but it's not like they were still experiencing it.

Coco @yukiasato Yes that's why I moved out of that situation. I got jumped many times because my skin color is not dark. I had to explain I'm the same as them. Yet still got jumped because I am not black enough. I look white when my mother black. They all respected My mother. They dissed me hated me because I should look dark like my mom. Well I'm not sorry. If your black sleeping with a white man. Sometimes the child skin tone is gonna be lighter not sorry about it. I'm glad I moved away from that and live in a civil neighbor hood where black and white don't act like that.

gtechrepublic @gtechrepublic I didn't have the exact same circumstance but similar. It wasn't about skin color as we had some light-skinned peeps but it was more of "acting" black than anything. I didn't fit in as I didn't conform to the stereotypical "black" person. Grew up on DBZ, YuGiOh and quite a few others. Didn't like rap music and never really cared for the whole saggy pants thing. Bullied constantly from Pre-K to 12th. So when my military time was up, I was happy I met my now wife and living happily in KY. I just wanted any way not to go back down to Louisiana.

Coco @yukiasato Either your not to black to fit in or your not yo white fit in. People call me a smart ass for this statement but I don't care. How can one act like a color? It's how you portray your self. Maybe said, person was raised to be racist or whatever. Does not mean you have to act out on it. You can change and break that cycle. Black, white. Half black half white. Mixed Asian etc. Skin color has nothing to do with anything expect most people was raised to be just plan out ignorant and hateful. If you get time to know someone you see you all are all the same it shouldn't have had anything to do with color. Should have stuff to do with what do you have in common people are miss the basic facts here. If you actually sit down get to know people instead of basing everything on skin color you'll find you may or may not have alot or little things in common. That's the issue with today's society to much hate instead of looking at the fact the person your Hating on is either just like you or likes the same stuff you like. Stop hating get to know people. Yea I get called out for what I say and believe in. Because your different color or race don't mean you have to hate on each other.

Coco @yukiasato It just sad how people react to one another so aggressively. So hatefully instead of respecting one another getting to know one another and loving one another even if you don't agree.

gtechrepublic @gtechrepublic Thank you for sharing your story with me! I am happy to know that I am not alone in my thoughts but sad to hear that you had to go through that. Also happy to see that you are able to move past it and move forward.
