Mutt dogs aren't celebrated? Why humans? When was the last time that one of the bleeding heart liberals like a Kennedy dated or married an asian or a black?

Because a white person made that comment...then it must be sensible?? Halle Berry and any other mixed person can claim to be whatever the hell they want to be- that is their business! Why are black people consistently insulted on this board? They are not running, skipping, falling over themselves to claim mixed people( 2 different race of parents- not that mulitgenerational stuff you all toss around). I think some of us mixed people are delusional. You are confusing the everyday black people with the poor so-called, self-appointed leaders ( Sharpton, Jackson,etc). Hell most black people I know don't even like to give Halle props for that Oscar because they noted that she is mixed and they felt she and Denzel had to do degrading roles to get them. Yeah, I am mixed, but I am sick of coming on here and seeing mixed people dissing Black people like they are so deseparate to have them on their teams. If you have a problem with them ( which is strange because you are mixed) then claim only your white and keep it moving, but beating a group over the head all the time is stupid. I hardly ever hear you all going Those same whites that act in your face like they are so in tuned to race issues ( as the ones questioning halle’s racial alliance in the article) would be the first ones to fall over dead if their son brought Halle’s behind home for dinner if she was not famous.

So I dont know how they rejected him when didnt even know about him or the sport of football. I've been watching football for over 15 years and only for the last two years have I known some of the half asian football players, such as Ward, Johnny and Chad Morton.

I totally agree with your article. I'm not half this or half that (at least not to my knowledge) but some of my half-white, half-korean friends do face that identity crisis. It is total hypocrasy when a country (for example S. Korea) rejects mixed people but when they accomplish something amazing, they go gah-gah over them. Since me being Korean, I feel that they should've embraced Ward earlier and I am proud that he has Korean heritage and this is probably the closest thing we koreans will ever get to having a Korean NFL star...hahah. I am proud of all my half asian brothers and sisters... you are 100% alright in my book! I totally loved how the WuTang wound up with the Asians. I totally agree with your article.
