Mixed People Mixed people rule! That's because I'm one of them =^_^=. I am a Black Caucasion Indian. My father is Black (screw that "African-American" crap), and my Mom is Irish, Dutch, German, Italian, Yugoslavian, Indian (screw that "Native-American" crap), and probably some other European origin that we don't know about. Seriously though, I am such a mutt. I actually want to marry an Asian dude when I grow up just to see what our child would look like. But I've heard a lot of people ask me, "What are you?" They ask it just like that. I usually respond, "I think I'm human." But they usually ask, "No...I mean...what race are you..?" Then I just tell them that my dad is Black and my mom is White (I only used "Caucasion" in the paragraph above because "Black White Indian" just doesn't work). And then I usually get looked at funny. You must understand that I live in a small redneck town located in the 7th circle of hell, and most of the people around here have never seen anybody who wasn't just White. I am one of the 6 out of about 600 students who are a minority. I have received a lot of crap from racist people around here (and there are a lot, in fact, some KKK members live in this town..they've even threatened my mom that they'll burn a cross in our yard, but my mom threatened them and they have never done it...my mom is awsome, and I love her =^_^=). As I walk from school to home, a lot of my stupid racist peers drive past me in their Ford pick-up trucks with a little Confederate flag bumper sticker shouting, "Burn in hell, N*****!" and "Why don't you take a shower and wash off all of that dirt on you?" That's fine though; I know that they are just redneck losers whose fathers must have been their mother's brother. I used to have a very hard time about it. Especially in Jr. High. I've told my principal that a lot of people pass me by in the hallway saying racial things to me, but he said that I was just lieing and he never did a thing about it. It got so bad that I had to go to therapy. When that didn't work, I just had to learn to deal with it. But now I just know that I'm just surrounded by racist retards who will probably marry their cousins and live in this town for the rest of their lives, and that I only have 2 years to go and I'll graduate from high school and finally go off to college. And then...world domination! Ha ha! I also I have to listen to crap from competely clueless people. For example, someone has asked me, "Were you adopted from Africa by that white woman that you live with?" (that "white woman" is my mommy, by the way). I just like to screw with these types of people. I just say, "No, I wasn't adopted from Africa; I was adopted from Scottland." And I try to say it with a Scottish accent; just to confuse them even more. I heard 2 or 3 people ask me, "If there was another Civil War going on right now, what would you do?" How the hell should I know? And what kind of question is that anyway? It almost sounds like an essay question or something. But if there was another Civil War, I'd probably beat myself up. Here's a good one; one day, I was walking through the hallway at school going to class, and this Black girl walked passed me the opposite direction (I think that there are about 3 Black people in my school; the rest of the minorities are Mexican), and when she did, a girl that was walking close to me and in my direction caught up with me and asked me, "Is that your sister?" Yep, just because we are both Black, we're attomatically related. I should have just said, "Yep!" and just grab a random white boy from the hallway and say, "..and this is my brother." And then there are people that know that I am mixed tell me, "I don't think that it's a good idea to mix races." They tell ME that, a mixed person. So they're practically telling me that I shouldn't have been born. And then they say, "I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or anything..." then they shouldn't have told me that if they didn't want to hurt my feelings, you know? And then most of them say something like, "well, mixed kids have it tough in this world, so we shouldn't mix races because it's hard on the mixed kids." Okay, so you are telling me, a mixed person, that I shouldn't have been born because I have it so hard..? That's really the wrong thing to say. You shouldn't say that mixed people shouldn't have been born, you should say that the KKK and all other racist morons deserve to be beaten up to death. If you are really concerned about mixed people's feelings, then don't say we shouldn't have been born. Say that racist people shouldn't be born. Becides, racism has died down over the years. There are still some redneck towns (like the one I live in) full of idiots, but the world is more diverse and grown now. And it still is growing. I've lived with my mom my whole life. Luckily, she told me at an early age about me being Birachel and explained to me that the world will see me as Black. She did not, however, explain to me that the world will see me as Mexican. When a lot of people first see me, they think that I'm Mexican. I don't really look hispanic; they usually have straight hair. But when some racist morons mistake me as Mexican, they're usually like, "hey! Where's your sombrero?" Since I do know a bit of Spanish (I'm taking 3 years of it in high school), I usually just like to play with these people. I usually say, "tu eres un pepino!" Which means "you're a cucumber!" And they have no idea what I said. Okay, since we are on the subject about racial issues, let me explain something about the word "nigger." I hate that word. But I just don't hate it when white people say it; I hate it when ANYONE says it. Some White people sometimes ask me, "Why is it that we can't use the word, 'nigger' and Black people can?" How the hell should I know? In my opinion, no one should use it, ever. It's just an ignorant word to use and it sounds stupid. And it doesn't make since that Black people use the word on each other, when in the old days, their "masters" used to crack them with a whip and call them that. And then they beat up a White person if they use it. They should beat up themselves too for saying that word. And then some Eminiem wanabes go around and call each other "niggers." We as a society have came up with a clever name for these types of people; we call them "wiggers." I don't use that word myself because it just sounds stupid. What's wrong with calling them "dumbasses?" Alright, I guess this is the end of my rant about my birachel-ness. If you happen to be in the same situation as me, by the way (meaning if you are stuck in a small redneck town, you're not White or you're mixed, and people just act retarded around you because of it), just hang tight. We will have our day. |
