What exactly IS white culture and heritage?? Are we talking german, italian?? So do you specifiy what heritage you are mixed with black (only german/black)? If not then it has nothing to do with culture because they ARE going to have a different culture than you. I am white and I am think this is almost ridiculous. My family has a culture / heritage as does every person's family regardless of race, but if we are talking culture / heritage as compild as a race?? Well compared to the rich and diverse AA heritage the white (in general) is lacking and i'm baffled at what this would be.

I think a lot of times this is a cover to be very very frank. If a full AA child makes you uncomfortable I would ask why. Are you emphasising the "white part" because the black makes you uncomfortable? What about the black heritage? You won't share that with them, will you teach them and show them that?? I'm not sure someone can truley embrace a race as long as they are "part white". What if they are part mongolian or asian? Is that okay too...just as long as that race's skin is white??

Would those of you that accept a biracial child...would you accept a full hispanic child? Full asian child? If so, well....not choosing full AA has nothing to do with sharing of culture and is truley just a cover. I am just baffled by this...society is just generating this "skin tone" hierarchy and it is so sad for me to see this.
