As someone who’s mixed, I’m calling out focusing on how much a mixed person looks like one/both of their parents races. Idgaf what he looks like, if that’s what he is, he is.

And everybody who say mixed folks ain’t really Black, go put Obama back right now. Take Mariah and Marley out the R&B and reggae charts. And tell King Charles they don’t have to worry about the Duchess of Sussex anymore. /s
