      As a black man in america, I know our history, I was born at night , not last night. Identifying with a culture and ethnicity is vital for one's self confidence. Claiming to be "mixed" is like, saying your are peanut butter and jelly. It's not good for identity sake. That is why I encourage all people to identify strongly with a culture, race, ethnicity. Or we will end up like brazil... millions of confused people going through perpetual identity crisis with portuguese and spanish names.
      So Ward should ignore one of his heritage??

      Being mixed,Ward is still american,young and a world champ.

      I dont think we need to belong to a race, a community based on the color.
      We can belong to a country,a town,a social group...being mixed,white,asian,black,old...

      The racial vision is due to people like you,white or black,thinking in your way.

      Brazil has more economic,politic,****** troubles than racial troubles...

      Now,if Ward decided to belong to your "black community",that's cool,but he's still a metis wich is a reality and not a fiction.

            Also, they consider themselves Brazilians, the goverment in Brazil doesn't make them to put what race are they in their documents.
            That's it bro.

            Personally,I don't have a black and white vision of the world.It's more complicated
            It's ****** and very strong in america.

              Economics, politics are inextricably tied to race. ***ish people, strongly band together to further themselves economically. ITalians, same thing. When you have confusion you have chaos. Thus Brazil.

              belonging to a country is not the way. Countries are controlled at the pinnacle by a specific race or ethnicity. Unless that country/nation has a common dogma, then there will be people left by the wayside.

              Ward doesnt have to ignore his heritage of his father to identify as a black man. But what is his fathers heritage? Irish? Does this mean he will do irish jigs? Go to st patty's day parades and feel comfortable? think about this for a second.

              His incubator, nurturer,and still living parent is an afuraken womban, he was raised in Oakland california, a city with dominantly black population.

                      thats right! but people from the mid-west think thats a race of its own.

                      they say all the fruits and nuts live in california but when you break it down the fruits and nuts of cali migrated from the mid-west.
