Originally posted by Ryn0 View PostYou asked "why do people KEEP calling biracial people black?" I answered your question. I didn't say it was right or justified.
There is still that label attached to mixed raced people, the media and general public refer to Obama as the first black president. I'm mixed raced (half Indonesian, half British) and people still refer to me as Asian when I'm probably more ingrained in British culture than Asian and spent the majority of my adult life here.
So how about you look at my answer and use your brain to figure out it was an answer to a question not a means of justification.

I see nothing racist in it.
On the flip side is it only because haye is black that is seems racist to you?

I have to vote "NOT SURE" because I don't know what is in the man's mind.
I would guess he meant Haye is uncivilized, but whether he meant it racially also is hard to say.

We've all had racist thoughts and probably made a racist remark at one time or another.
To me, an actual *racist* is someone obsessed by race and who actively dislikes and discriminates against people based on their race.Last edited by The Nephilim; 11-12-2012, 08:22 PM.
