You Are the Seed of Your Father

For all of you who come to discover that I’m biracial and you all like to tell me that “YOUR RACE IS DETERMINED BY WHAT YOUR FATHER IS! SO IF YOUR FATHER IS WHITE, THEN YOU ARE WHITE!” Let me tell you all something, I’m not one of those biracials who’s going to argue you down over my blackness, sort of like how Meechie X does on occasion when people call her out for being biracial. I’m going to simply tell you that I’ll be whatever the hell I feel like being, whether it’s me strictly identifying as black or strictly identifying as biracial. For obvious reasons I’ve never identified as white because for 1) I can’t pass for white & 2) I honestly believe this sexy golden skin tone I was born with combined with this good hair of mines is exactly what the world needs. The world needs more yellow knee grows like me to make this place sexier.

Regardless of all of that here’s the thing, my biological dad was white (was meaning, he died a few years ago) and no I wasn’t raised by him. To your surprise, I’ve been raised by a black man and my black mama since I was 3 years old (shocker I know). But for all of you who like to say “YOU ARE WHAT YOUR FATHER IS”, Ok. If that’s the new rule black people are running around implementing in their minds when it comes to us biracials, let me ask you something: exactly what would I be losing if you all were to declare me as just white simply because my bio dad is white? What exactly would I be losing?
