Identity is not a zero-sum game, and forcing a biracial child to choose one side only perpetuates the rigid racial binaries of the past. Validating their full heritage is essential for psychological health and reflects a more nuanced understanding of the modern self.

BLACK DAD UPSET HIS BIRACIAL KID REFUSE BEING CALLED BLACKAdded:
So, you're not black. I Why are you not black? Look at this.
You're so pretty. I'm matching the color of my own.
You're matching the color of your what?
Um Tell me what.
I'm matching my mom. Look at him off.
>> You're matching like your mom? Yeah.
But your dad's this [music] color.
I'm not him.
But you're still black. It's okay being black. You like being black? I don't like being black.
Why don't you like being black?
Cuz I like being white.
You like being white?
I like being white.
I like being white. That's okay, but you're still black.
Being black is okay.
>> [music] >> I am sick and tired of black women having biracial children and not validating them as biracial. If you want black children, have children with a black man.
You're having children with non-black men, lying to them about their biracial identity, and that's what causes racial identity issues. Hello good people.
Welcome to African Commentary. Here we learn and grow every day. And if you're new here, kindly consider subscribing, liking, and sharing the videos. I will really, really appreciate. Still on the topic of biracial kids, there is this video whereby a little She's a little biracial girl, a very little, like 2 years maybe.
And she's telling her dad that she is not black. She doesn't like being black.
And what you can see from the video, the girl is lighter. She's like her mom. But the dad insists The dad is a black man.
He insists that the child is black. And the child tells her, "No, I am not black. I am whiter like my mom."
These are still the challenges that biracial kids face in the society. So, before I speak much, let's watch the video, and then I'm going to give my two cents at the end. Also, let me know what you think about this in the comments section down below. So, you're not black? Why you not black? Look at this.
You're so black. I'm not black like >> [music] >> You're not black like what? Um Like what?
>> [music] >> I'm not black like Like your mom? You're not black like your mom? YEAH.
BUT YOUR DAD SAYS you're black.
I'm not But you're still black.
Okay, being [music] black.
You like being black? I don't like being black.
Why don't you like being [music] black?
Because I like being You like being white?
>> [music] >> I like being I like being white.
That's okay, but you're still black.
>> [music] >> Being black is okay?
>> [music] >> I like being I like being You're so black.
You're so black.
I LIKE BEING IT'S LIKE A SUBARU OR A HYBRID.
THIS video is really kind of sad because first of all, that little girl is absolutely adorable. The both of them are. And she's like, "I don't want to be black. Like, I'm white. I like to be white." And then as the video went on, she was literally like yelling like, "I'm not black. Like and the father's like, "Yes, you are."
Why are you confusing that child? She's not black. She's black and white. She does have her a skin tone that's more akin to her mom's.
I don't understand what it is with black men that have biracial children and then try to force the kids to only claim them.
Does that make sense?
Like that old racist trope one drop rule ass [ __ ] does not apply in modern times.
You are whatever your mother is. The baby follows the womb culturally. And if you are more than one race, then you are biracial. You are mixed race. What is the problem with being biracial?
Why is that black man trying to force his visibly lighter complected biracial daughter to only claim blackness? I I think that that's wrong and it's confusing to a child. And And at least the mother stepped in and said, "You're both." You know, and then the the daughter was like, "Well, you don't look you know, like that." And she was like, "Oh, cuz both of my parents are white."
And the little girl was like, "I don't want to be white." And then she started saying that her dad was a monster. She said, "You're a monster."
And I'm just like, "Whoa." I mean, kids have vivid imaginations, but why would she choose to call him a monster? And what is it that the mother is teaching her about her skin tone?
And this is why a lot of tragic biracials And I'm talking about tragic biracials. Not every biracial is tragic.
I'm talking about biracials that are tragic because they feel like they can't fit in anywhere, they don't know where they are, or they have no home, or they're not accepted over here, and they're not accepted over there. It's because you're both. I think when people just learn to embrace every facet of themselves, every side of themselves, then it seems like things would be better. I don't understand how it's acceptable to denounce your mom, the womb, the portal that ushered you into this physical plane. Your mother is the first god-like deity that you know as a child when you come into this world. So for So for children to be to come from white wombs and for black men to say, "You're not You're just black."
It's diabolical to me. Is it just me?
Is it just me?
The one-drop rule was initially implemented so that white slavers could be deadbeat daddies. They're the first deadbeat daddies of the world. So that they did not have to claim or take care of their biracial children.
That's how that started.
And I just If you want a monoracial black child, if you want a child that's fully black, have a baby with someone that's black.
Don't have a baby with a white woman and tell the child you're just you're black.
And then he was like, "Don't you like your hair? That's why your hair is nice and curly." And she was like, "No."
I feel so sad for that baby girl.
Hopefully, you know, she grows up and she's able to embrace both sides of herself and her father actually sticks around so that she could, you know, learn about black culture and hopefully he catches a goddamn clue and tells her that she is half and half because there's nothing wrong with that. Saying a person is biracial is not a slur, it's not derogatory. Calling a person mixed is not a slur and it's not derogatory.
It's the truth. Living in this being rooted in reality. What y'all think about this? Spread love in every single way. Sound off in the comments.
I love that my black children came out white.
That's what people on TikTok heard me say when I said that I love that my daughter inherited my Scandinavian hair lines. Why is a white woman married to a black man am I not allowed to be proud of my children's features? Why am I not allowed to be proud of their black features that were inherited from their father? Why is that now racist? Why am I now fetishizing black men?
Why am I not allowed to find the beauty in the black skin, especially against my pale white skin? Why am I not allowed to find the beauty in looking into his deep brown eyes, especially in the sun when they're glazing? Why am I not allowed to find the beauty in watching the light reflect off of his dark skin? But if a black woman said that, or especially any other race, that's okay. At the end of the day, as a white mom to mixed kids, I'm going to talk about their black features. I'm going to talk about their white features because they need to know to be proud of their features because it's them. It's what makes up them. A mixed child. First question was, "Do you identify more as black or white?
My answer is both. I identify as black and white because that's what I am.
I've gotten a ton of questions about when I'm like filling out like paperwork, what do I put as my race? And I check the two or more races box or I just check African-American/black and white Caucasian.
It's not like I choose one over the other. Obviously, I'm going to put both cuz that's how I identify. The next question was being biracial, do I prefer to date white or black men? I'mma be completely honest with you guys. I have no type at all when it comes to ethnicity, race, culture.
I'm open to all types of men. I think black men are beautiful, white men are beautiful, Indian men, Asian men, Caribbean men. Like I literally don't have a type. As long as you cute and you got a good personality and you're a good person, that's fine with me. Somebody really asked me do I like chicken?
Okay.
I do. I love chicken. I will tear up some chicken, okay? My dad actually makes the best fried chicken recipe. I haven't had it in a while, but he makes fried chicken in peanut oil instead of like regular oil and it's so good with the peanut oil. I'm running out of time guys, so I'll answer one more question, but I can always do a part two cuz there's still a lot of questions. But the last question was how do I get my hair to be so nice? Honestly guys, I definitely took after my mom's hair, obviously. Um my hair is dyed, so my natural hair is like dirty blonde. This is like highlights.
But my hair is also very thin. Today, I have a lot of dry shampoo in it cuz it was really dirty, but dry shampoo really helps me with like the volume.
The biracials are attacking me in my comments because I said, "If you're biracial and you You a baby with a white person, your baby is not black. Science said it. I'm just repeating it. No need to fight me. If you know that one parent is black and one parent is white and you have a child and that parent is white, then that baby is white. Don't you think it affects monoracial people and don't you think you are speaking from a place of privilege by telling a child that is not black that they're black, that is not even black presenting, that they're black. What does that say about black people?
Stop speaking from the soapbox about, "Oh, the black people didn't accept me and I didn't know what I was." That is a choice made by your parents.
It has nothing to do with the entire cultural community of people because your parents decided to have a biracial child and then you decided to have a baby with a white person. Now, if you want to Diana Ross your [ __ ] that's okay. But you do not get to raise these children telling them that they are black. You could say, what you could say is, "Hey, your granddad's black. Your grandmother's black. You, you my friend, you're white. And that's okay. Let's start saying and that's okay. It's okay.
It's going to be okay. I am sick and tired of black women having biracial children and not validating them as biracial. If you want black children, have children with a black man.
You're having children with non-black men, lying to them about their biracial identity, and that's what causes racial identity issues. And another thing that was really hard growing up in a racist family was my mother, and I didn't realize that she fetishized black men but hated me. And I was like, "Why would you get with a black man if you don't want a black child?" This is going to be just as uncomfortable for me to say as it will be for you to hear, but white women who have a sexual desire for black men but do not like their mixed children use their children to help feed that sexual appetite. Also to get away with racist things cuz they can just say, "I have black children. I can't be racist."
But, they'll flaunt those children in public, and it lets black men know she she [ __ ] with black men. She got mixed kids. It's evident that she sleeps with us. So, she would prefer to have a daughter who looks white with a tan over a daughter who looks like a light-skinned black girl. That's her problem with you because the white women who only see black men as a sexual object always have a problem with black women. They see you as competition, even if you're their daughter. Your sister, in her mind, will look more like her.
So, she will have less of a problem with a black man paying her any attention over you. She had no desire to raise black children, to learn about them, or to ever do your ethnic hair. That's why it frustrates her. That's why you just being there and being alive frustrates her because you didn't come out the way she imagined, just like your sister did.
She need trophies. She need props to take out into the world to attract black men to her sexual temptation. It's never love. It was never anything besides sexual pleasure. She just happened to have kids out of it because she had a a goal, which your sister helped her hit, and you got in the way of. And on the flip side, any of those white women who ever been on dates with white men, those white men be like, "You ever sleep with a black guy?" But, he never disclosed that he's not attracted to black women because he is attracted to black women.
He just doesn't want touching his white woman. It's a sexual desire, and they need to feed it. It's a fantasy, and it's all I can think about. Hope that helps.
I don't mean to be in biracial people's business, but why do y'all keep talking about white mom versus black mom biracials and not white dad versus black dad biracials? Like, why did y'all put it on the mamas?
We ain't got no smoke for the daddies.
Nothing? Did y'all be like, "Oh, they must got a white mom. They must got a white mom."
What about they must got a black daddy?
What about the daddy?
What about the daddy that's not passing on the culture?
Nothing? Y'all didn't know?
I'm not in an interracial relationship, but I am in an intercultural one. And I can tell you 100% it is entirely my husband's responsibility to pass on the culture to his children.
I be trying, you know, but but there's only so much I can do.
It's only so much I can do cuz it's not my culture.
I would be sick if you were out there talking about American mom. Excuse me?
What do this got to do with me?
The mama. This is the This ain't got nothing to do with me.
This is on the daddy. Oh, and excuse the hand placement. It's not shade. It's just I had to block the the company logo on the shirt. That's all. You know what bothers me is when biracial black men have kids and be mad that their kids aren't black.
Let that baby be white. Then the daddy be 25% black with a baby that's like 2% black and they be mad that the baby's white.
>> So, among the many challenges that biracial kids face, and I also spoke about them, is this identity confusion, whereby the child doesn't know where he or she belongs. The child might be lighter, but she feels like or he feels like he's not white.
Or at the same time, the parents one of the parents want the child to say that maybe she's black or she's white, not mixed or not one side.
And I want to speak to parents, especially parents in these interracial marriages, that you are the ones who are contributing like 90% to the confusion your child is having. You need to be okay with the color that your child will have. If you really wanted a black child and you are a black person, go and date or marry a black person like you for you to get a black child. If you are a white person and you know really that you don't love the black community, you know that you don't want anything to do with the black community, don't give birth with a black person.
Because at the end these parents kind of have resentment towards their kids for the kid not saying that she's black or she's white, the parent is upset. Why are you confusing this child? She's just a little girl. You know, for kids just so innocent and what she sees is what she says. You want the child to say that she's black yet she's not black.
Why can't you have a sit-down with that child as little as she is and talk to her?
Tell her she is of a mixed race. She's partly white and partly black.
Let the child grow knowing that instead of insisting on one particular race.
>> [gasps] >> You're making this child to be confused.
You're making this child to not know where to belong. You're making this child not to be confident in himself or herself because she doesn't even know which culture to follow. She doesn't even know how to do things or which way things are done, which is the right way.
We have people who get into interracial marriages without the expectations of having kids and they end up having a kid. So, you might find maybe it's a white person ending up with a black person, but initially they didn't have the idea of having kids, but you know things happen and people get kids. And now you become upset because the outcome of your kids is not what you expected, it's not what you wanted. What I'll say getting into an interracial marriages comes with a lot of things. It's not just about you two. Unless you're not planning on having kids ever in life, but if you guys are planning to have kids, I think this is one of the greatest things you need to speak about.
You need to speak about your kids.
How are you guys going to raise those kids? How are you going to teach those kids about race? Because as much as you might not talk about these things, when they grow up and the society is still not at a place whereby they accept biracial kids or mixed race kids.
So, you need to protect your child as early as possible. You need to let them be aware of themselves. You need to let them know that they are beautiful. You need to let them know that they matter, they deserve equal treatment. These are things that you as parents need to instill in your kids before it's too late after they have grown and now they are facing the judgment that comes from people in the society.
Now they are even regretting of being born and it is not their fault. Biracial kids are also kids like any other kids. They deserve this >> [snorts] >> some kind of education from their parents even before the world. You as parents you need to tell them you belong to this race and you belong to this race, too.
And another thing is that you as a parent and you know you are racist towards a certain race, don't get yourself involved with that race. Why are you getting into a marriage with a black person or with a white person and you know really well that you don't love this race. You end up hating on kids just because you don't love that race.
Maybe they are darker than what you expected and now you hate black people.
You start resenting your own kids. You start neglecting your own kids. Let's talk about this topic more. Let me know.
You guys share with me in the comments section down below. If you are a biracial kid watching this video, you can share with us. How was your experience growing up? Did you face judgement? Did you face identity confusion? Challenges that comes with being of a mixed race? You can just share with us and let's create awareness. Let's create a room for these biracial kids to be also loved and accepted just like any other kids because they are still human beings and we need to show them love, support and every other good thing. With that said guys, let me know your thoughts about this in the comment section down below.
Don't forget to subscribe, like and share and I really really appreciate seeing the next video. Bye.
