Born into a racist family

The words

Being mixed, I've been in a lot of

interesting situations and I Just want to like

share that the. It hasn't been easy

especially because you can be in situations where you will

experience racism from your own family. And that's

a bit of a mad one to like digest. And I feel like it's

not really spoken about

and especially growing up. Like

it's weird like when

it happens from like people close to you, from your loved ones.

And one thing I want to say is

that when people fetishize,

I can't even pronounce that.

When people glorify

whatever interracial marriages and

relationships, realize that

if there's a child there, that child needs

to be protected. Because

when you're mixed, you can actually

basically be born into a racist family. Like your own

family can be racist and be saying the N word or whatever situation

it can be. And, and that

can be mad. And that's a burden to carry because one side of your family

are the oppressed whilst the other side of your family are the oppressors.

So I hope that people deep and realize that.

It's not all about getting that light

skinned child with green

eyes, curly hair, a white smile

and smooth skin.

Like that's a trend. However, that child is

then growing up in a family where potentially

their closest loved ones are racist and don't actually value his or her life.

The room

On the first day I also tried, several times, to say something I had never said on camera: that when you are mixed, you can be born into a family where some of the people closest to you are racist — and that the people who glorify interracial relationships online rarely think about the child who grows up inside that. One side of your family the oppressed, the other the oppressors. I said it as a warning to anyone romanticising light-skinned babies with green eyes and curly hair: that child still has to grow up, and may grow up without being valued by the people who should value them most.

It is true, it is mine, and I say it without naming anyone.
