#mixed descent

[darksidecat]

I would be really interested in talking to other people of mixed descent who are also in that weird place where you don't think of yourself as white but you feel like it's sort of appropriation to call yourself a POC.*  It's kind of it's own weird thing?

*feel this about myself/ourselves, not necessarily about others

At some point in her life my mother decided it would be a good idea to marry a biracial Native dude and then wonder why her children get angry at racism directed towards Native communities.

YES MOM I AM PERSONALLY OFFENDED BY A CHILDREN'S MOVIE WITH RED FACE AND THE SONG "TEN LITTLE INDIANS IN IT".

For fucks sake.
