@wildflowerchel @wildflowerchel @wildflowerchel maybe you feel this way cus you personally have never been bullied in that way, that doesn’t make other people experiences invalid or non existent. Like I stated dark skin girls bullying lightskin is as much of a reality as lightskins bullying dark girls. How can we address the pains of being isolated by our community without showing what it looks like? So I guess we just shouldn’t talk about how dark skins can mistreat lightskins because of internalized racism, because that makes us look bad? Since when is handling our trauma something we shy away from? Also your experiences are you own, they aren’t the standard for all mixed people. Where you grew up matter, what era, all of it. So i agree it’s important to have a spectrum of experiences on this but your original post kind of invalidates a lot of peoples daily life. Not just kids. I was literally told yesterday I’m not Black by a dark skin man.. like it’s not a childhood trauma, it’s an actual thing that happens often lmao

@wildflowerchel the reality of being bullied does exists and what tf do we look like asking other races to stop mistreating is if we can’t address the way we mistreat each other? The experiences of lightskins being bullied is just as important as the experiences darkskins being bullied. The fact that you find accountability and acknowledgement of a reality that exists for lightskins to be harmful to the entire community shows how much it clearly needs to be addressed. Colorism doesn’t only work one way as I’m sure you know. If feels like your trying to say we should put on a fake smile for white america instead of actually deal with the issues within our community and I find that more harmful than anything.

@damndame we mixed race/ biracial people have identity issues stemming from the fact that we are mixed with black and white. Not feeling black enough or white enough stems from literally being mixed. It’s a real issue but it’s not externally inflicted, it’s a sometimes life time internal struggle. Being bullied and children using our identity issues as a hurting point is bullying. HOWEVER to accuse darker skin black people of our own identity issues we exerpience growing up is HARMFUL. As a biracial women the likelihood of a darker skin person bullying me because of my biracial background was less common than white micro aggressions.

@rem24x at the end of the day...whatever struggle u think u have...itll never b as bad as a dark skinned person...ever...im dark and fortunately as a child i didnt get it bad...no one really bothered me about it but i knew the hatred existed...i saw how dark people were treated...youre automatically unattractive and unwanted and that goes well into adult hood...u see it in movies or hear entertainers say it...in every aspect of life beginning in slavery...darker skin blks were treated worse...so to hear mixed people wit this “i didnt know where i belonged” mess is weak and tired. Thats the only conplaint they have and they drag it...

@pamelajames188 wow that's crazy. I know people that are mixed and do have a struggle because they are pulled both ways or not good enough for either race. Or the family hates that kid that is half Black. If you don't believe they have a struggle you need to get out more. I am a light skin Black woman and I grew up not belonging. Being treated differently because I wasn't brown enough and told I was Puerto Rican. Then told by the Puerto Ricans I was Black. I was on a kid and I struggle to belong and tried to tan myself every chance I could. So I know mixed race kids had it even worse than me.

As an AFRICAN, who's always mistaken for a black/white Mixed-Ish girl I'm here for this show!!! There are SO MANY facets of Blackness, and in 2019 we are just now getting to accept 1- ie black/white but the truth is we are ALL guilty of adding our own versions of stereotypical assumptions based on our own experience. Let's not scream inclusion all while practicing exclusion by assuming what will and won't be covered on this show. @traceeellisross thank you so much for breaking stereotypes that advised we "act" white or black. Let's just be us?
