black nd mixed race people

[Gunner]

Some guy in the Sun was switching over thisSaying ''why do people call Lewis Hamilton a great role model to black people when he's mixed race - He's a great role model to white and black people''Fair point.

he went through what alot of the people, not only int he black community, but workin class communities went throughsingle parent family, first livin with mum then dadhis dad lost a job n had to find other way of supporting him etc n through all this jus with hunger n passion man came out n is currently the best driverhe aint a role model jus for black people, but for everyone struggling to achieve their goalsits mainly black people though coz they see it as "wow, this guy is from the same background n everything as me, why cnt i do sutin liek that" he aint like all other F1 drivers when u look at it

Thats just the thing,the bigger pictureTheres an equal amount of white poeple that got it like we do

And if they wanna related and embrace him then they are free to, it still doesnt stop him being a role model to black people.

Course Lewis Hamilton is the same as all the other drivers. He's just got a different skin tone. It isn't like he's ever been poor or struggled.

"When supporting his son became problematic Anthony Hamilton took redundancy as an IT Manager and became a contractor[7] - sometimes doing up to three jobs at a time to support his son's career - and still found enough time to attend all his races. Anthony would later set up his own computer company, as well as working as a manager for Lewis on a full time basis. "dnt seem like wealth to methat was also in a single parent environment

Also there is this slight trend i noticed with mixed race people from london sway more to their black side and the ones outside london are closer to their white side.From what I have seen

I remember my bredrin said mixed-race ain't really a colour....BECAUSE THEY ARE A COMBINATION!!!!MIXED RACE PEOPLE ARE NOT BLACK.

So what about green, its made up from blue and yellow, a combination?anyway, now its not a a colour, and black white etc are not colours in the sense we mean them, they are just labels. Why are mixed race people not black. I call black/white misxed race people black

Mixed race people are......MIXED RACE!!! How hard is it to get?To call them Black totally disregards the fact they have WHITE IN THEM.... !

[Gunner]

No it doesnt, i call them black based on their appearance. Can you always tell the difference between a light skinned black person with 2 balck parents and a mixed race person with one white one black parent. They look the similar

LIES. Alot of mixed race people r paaaaaaaale! If u really break it down, some of them look more white than black. Anyhu, mixed race is what it isss. mixed race. not black, not white. grey even

[Skola]

if theres enuff darkness in ur skin, you are blacki dont really agree with this, but it seems thats how most people see itobviously you arent white, but you aint black neitherim mixed and dont consider myself EITHER, but if i had to say one or the other i would say im black, but at same time, in africa people called mixed folk white

[Kurtis]

[Guest Scorpzz]

mixed race is mixed race end ofits not white or black its BOTHyou have mixed people that look more blackthen you have mixed people that look more white/latin/hispanicand don't f*cking point the finger at a mixed race person just because they're more in touch with one side more than the other, some people are just so IGNORANT.kmt

[kurious]

(bk in the day)mixed race ppl were still called niggersthey can be classed imopeople of colour

[shaian]

MIXED PEOPLE ARE MIXED, PRETTY SIMPLE. THEY (WE) MIGHT NOT HAVE ANY BLACK IN US AT ALL. SO HOW COULD U BE CALLED BLACK JUST COS UR MIXED. (I GUESS WE THINKIN THE TYPICAL BLACK AND WHITE MIX HERE) I WAS ONCE TOLD IF U HAVE 1% BLACK IN UR BLOOD................. UR A NIGGER TO OTHER PEOPLE STILL. (NOT GOOD)THE ACTUAL TERM NEEDS TO BE DUAL HERITAGE, AND THATS COS IT CAN BE ANY MIX. BLACK AND WHITE. INDIAN AND BLACK. ETC ETC ETCI SAY AND ALWAYS HAVE I AM MIXED, BLACK AND WHITE. I WONT SAY MIXED COS THAT CAN BE SO MUCH, SO HAVE TO STATE THE BLACK AND WHITE, I KNOW SOME MIXED CHICKS WHO DONT HAVE ANY BLACK IN THEM BUT THEY LOOK BLACK AND ARE QUITE DARKM U CAN TELL THEY ARE MIXED, BUT WOULDNT GUESS THEY HAD NO BLACK IN THEM.

SMH@ everyone who comes into this thread and says something like "u r all so ignorant, mixed race people are BLACK, or mixed race ppl are WHIT, or MIXED"...or whatever, You the ones that are being ignorant.It is down to the individual person, if a person is half white, and half black and chooses to be labelled as black, then thats it, you sayign otherwise won't change it.. same with the other way round, why are you all saying things like "so and so doesnt want to be labelled as *insert here*"....why should anyone want to be called something just so YOU agree with it?End of the day, there is..i doubt one person alive that is purely one race at all, so to an extent everyone is mixed, it's sall the same, whether 1st..or 2nd generation etc...doesnt really matter how dark or light you are, somewhere along your family line you have someone that is of a different race to your parents.Now for the obligatory, "techinically, we all belong to the HUMAN race".... >_<

i disagree, coz when the police stops you, you try get a job, like i said b4, shoot someone, get shot, your black whether you see yourself as both or notdefine acting white? i dont believe there is such thingthat proves my point about it not how you see yourself, you could argue that she is open to the same amount of discrimination even tho she isnt fully arabic
