Biracial - Tumblr Posts

Op this is everything

Made this in like a minute out of frustration over a couple memories. Is this anything

Ironically often, the people talking about not judging others based on the colour of their skin are the same people saying that mixed race people can’t be/don’t look mixed race because they’re too pale or too dark

Having to hide your whiteness with Asians and having to hide your Asian-ness with white people is exhausting.

I come across less Asians and look more white so most of the time I’m having to censor what I say just so white people don’t start asking loads of racist questions and talking about how I ‘don’t look mixed’.

Although it is funny when they’re being asianphobic in front of me and I look them in the eye and say “I’m part Asian”.

sometimes being wasian is like hey how would you like to be ostracized by asian people and treated like shit by white people and maybe half your extended family will call you an abomination sometimes to add a little flavor how does that sound

I don’t know who needs to hear this but indirect racism is still racism.

Just because you aren’t yelling slurs at someone doesn’t mean you aren’t committing microaggressions or doing overt generalised racist things.

I am once again asking people to please stop white washing Alastair, Magnus, and Aline in drawings and gifsets. Just because they're biracial doesnt mean you can draw them as white or use white models for them.

Honestly I thought we had nipped this in the bud but alas. 🙄

Human Cheer! She's Biracial! (White X Black)

so you want mixed babies...

I bet you think your mixed race kids are gonna pop out of the womb all cute for you to post under #mixedbabies on your fucking facebook! oh em gee mixed race people are inherently more exotic, more beautiful, I wish MY kids were mixed race! but I'm not racist, you see, because race mixing is the future! having mixed babies is going to solve racism! I bet you're white and want a person of color as your boyfriend/girlfriend to fulfill your weird fetish! good for you, you fucking racial fetishizer. fuck you, fuck people who think mixed race is a ‘type,’ fuck you gross-ass racists and your fetishes.

There's a colorism issue in the black community. No shit, right? But what people fail to acknowledge is the colorism light people face. I'm talking mixed race and albino people. There's this bar of 'black enough' that just fucks us over and I don't fucking fit in anywhere racially because of it. AND THEN? If that wasn't bad enough, some people uphold a 'too dark' meter?????? Make up your minds, do you want to shit on light skinned folk like me or the dark skinned folk? If you answered yes to either fuck you figure out how to not alienate people from your own community.

I tend to just say I'm black, because if I reveal the fact that I had the audacity to be born mixed with white I would be fucking crucified in some spaces. My black identity is not taken seriously. I tried to fit in as a 'white' person for about fifteen years, with half of that being subconscious (ex: refusing to boxbraid my hair and using relaxer and pressing it often to keep it manageable. For the record my hair is kinky straight but my roots have always tightly coiled). It didn't work because I was sniffed out. Fucking shocker/sarcasm. I wasn't white enough either. I'm fucking tired of the race shit, I'm tired of racism, I'm tired of colorism.

Do better.

that's what I'm saying! being biracial is such an isolating experience because your racial identity is not taken seriously no matter where you go. I'm black and white, and I look so obviously mixed that I cannot blend in anywhere. When I was younger I tried my damn near hardest to be white, but stuff like my hair would give me away. My skin color is very light, but not quite white passing since it's a little too colored for that. It sucks. It's a limbo between not feeling black enough and not being white enough either.

being biracial between white and poc will always be so alienating for me I don't relate to anyone. I don't quite fit in with whites but I don't quite fit in with people of color. been more white passing than the rest of my family doesn't help

'I think it's very disrespectful to both, really. Whether it's Indian or black, I think it's very disrespectful to both' okay, so Trump is willing to misconstrue what it means to be biracial in order to leverage himself. That's super fucking insulting to me, and I hope it's insulting to other biracial Americans. If you don't give a fuck about trans or disabled people, at least you can acknowledge the guy's strategic racism. In the very least. Because this guy doesn't care about minorities, he doesn't even care about his fanbase of white people who, to me, appear to be mostly cishet and abled with some exceptions. If there are people who still go on to vote for this scumbag, that says a lot about them as people. They're self-entitled, stupid individuals who really think Trump has their interests in mind, and that's all that matters to them is that their own interests are being acknowledged and upheld... no matter how many people are harmed in the process. Sickening.

Reminder that if you aren't biracial, you can fuck right off with what you think biracial individuals get to call ourselves. You can take your 'black people/poc are supposed to look like THIS' and shove it up your ass, too. I get it, I'll forever be a mere racial outlaw to YOU, but I'm still black. get over it.

y'all want us to 'pick one' but then get mad when we do. y'all just hate biracials and it couldn't be more obvious, we can't win to you.
