To those who can literally pass as white, do u ever feel like you should hav a t shirt or sumthin tht says. ( Hey I'm not white). Lol

I swear I always feel like I should b carrying a card tht says I'm not white just white passing. Lol .

Now dnt come at me fr this. A friend nd I went to lunch one day nd she is also biracial. She was yelling come on nd i responded wth, im coming nigger. I ddnt realize there was an older white woman behind me who said, um ma'am u cnt say tht. I responded wth no u cnt say tht but I can. My friend busted up laughing, cause tht woman thought I was being disrespectful to my friend. Lol. This literally became our lil joke fr months.

Now dnt get it twisted, I dnt use tht word in a bad way ever but it does on occasion come out. Usually it's cause were just playing. Has anyone white passing ever done sumthin similar?

How many of you thought you were only one race but later in life found out differently nd how did you react?

I was brought up to believe i was white nd 2 types of Indian blk foot nd Cherokee. Now however I took a DNA back when the pandemic started nd found out tht wasn't exactly true. See I found out I'm mixed blk nd white wth Indian. I always knew sumthin was different wth me then my so called relatives but was never told. Im 58f now. When in my 20s my mother introduced me to a friend she said nd this man kept looking at me like he was memorizing everything abt me. Not in a creepy way but more like he wouldn't ever see me again. He told me he hadn't seen me since I was born. I ddnt put 2 nd 2 together until 2021. I believe tht man was my father nd i was never told. Unfortunately I dnt remember his name just wht he looked like. Now all these yrs later I still cnt get answers but I'm living wth tht. I'm proud to say I hav his green eyes, lips nd his attitude nd my crazy hair.

Wish I could of gotten to know him better but life doesn't always go our way. If it wasn't fr tht test I wouldn't of known. Proud to say I'm a mixed woman nd I luv my heritage. Has anyone else experienced this

Do any of yall feel closer to one side of your heritage nd possibly dislike one or more off ur other's?

Im blk nd white but honestly I only feel my blk side. Worse part is I'm white passing nd i hate it. I've had sum bad experiences wth mostly white ppl finding out im mixed nd tht left a bad taste in my mouth so to speak. I had a roommate who's husband had a slave ownership paper from his great great grandfather nd he was so proud to have it. I told him dnt ever put tht on our walls or it'll dissappear, well I guess he thought it was a joke. Let's just say it spontaneously combusted. I have alot of dislike for white ppl. I'm not even close to any of my white relatives. Yes, I'll admit I've even said more than a few times I hate white ppl even though I am part of them. I just wonder does anybody else ever feel like this.

I was never told abt my heritage. I found out by taking one of those ancestry test. When I ask my mother who my daddy is, I got laughed at. I explained to her tht all through my life I felt different. I look white in color but blk in everything else. All my life I was lied to nd made basically a secret. Now older I've ask several times to plz just tell me so I can meet him b4 one of us dies.

Here's the thing, she will keep her secret till she dies. I. Just want to know the other side of me.
