My children are all members of a multi-racial family, obviously, since their father is half-Chinese, and various other relatives are black, Cherokee, Korean, Vietnamese, and Mexican. Although they are, obviously, aware of these racial and ethnic facts, it has been literally in the same sense that they're aware of some of their relatives have brown eyes, some blue, and some green.
That's funny, I remember growing up as a black child in school. I had white friends and I had mixed friends and it meant absolutely nothing to me. Just as it meant nothing to cecille's son. It wasn't until I felt the sting of racism from whites that I became aware of racism. This is not the way original people behave, racism is a phenomenon created by whites for whites. ..
