He's right. My life has been so terrible

I think he's clearly a racist (funny how they always have 'loads of black friends' & never have 'a racist bone in their body), but in truth being mixed-race is far more complex than people think, I would say that there are definitely problems of acceptance. I think you tend to find yourself feeling more accepted by black people, but that's largely due to how society as a whole determines being 'black'. You also most certainly here black people coming out with this kind of stuff.

You certainly have to put up with bigotry from both sides a lot more, but hey if there's one thing being mixed-race does, it makes you have a sense of humour about these things. Or makes you a sociopath. I can't decide
