A lot of mixed race people identify as black because the world will never see them as white. Really donāt see a problem?Grace acting like she is full black. Lee is half too. So Cyprus is half

Wow in that second picture she is basically saying Cyprus is getting in the way of her happiness isn't she He is such a massive inconvenience to her it breaks my heart. Grace, maybe instead of thinking how hard your life is with a toddler, think about how hard it is for him, being in pain teething, having so many feeling he can't express, probably feeling the change that is coming his way, constantly being dumped on other family members because mummy can't look after him... Find some empathy towards your poor boy pleaseI thought she was going to say C made her chase round the park after him, but no
Also, which is it? She said the other day thereās ālots of changeā going on, then she says things are very stable and boring, then sheās stressed

Pretty sure the āstable, normal, boringā was sarcasm though?I thought she was going to say C made her chase round the park after him, but no

That thinking leads to the erasure of actual black people with two black parents. Someone with a white parent can never be black. They can be mixed race, or a black biracial, but not just black.A lot of mixed race people identify as black because the world will never see them as white. Really donāt see a problem?
A lot of black (African) people won't see them as black either.A lot of mixed race people identify as black because the world will never see them as white. Really donāt see a problem?
Thatās fair. But race is a social construct so it is interpreted differently by many people. In the English town I grew up in mixed kids were called black all the time by white people. The one drop rule is a made up arbitrary concept for sure, but so are the concepts of blackness and whiteness itself.That thinking leads to the erasure of actual black people with two black parents. Someone with a white parent can never be black. They can be mixed race, or a black biracial, but not just black.
this isnāt America and we donāt follow a one drop rule for blackness. White people in this country know the difference between a mixed race person and a black person and on government documents there is a separate box for mixed race people
We donāt follow the one drop rule, and yes, she is mixed race, nor am I saying that her experiences mirror those who have two black parents. Iām just saying that sheās more than welcome to partake in the use of an uplifting slogan for black children and that itās not a weird take as many mixed race people do it. I feel like a lot of people here sometimes find her alignment to blackness strange when really, most mixed race people in London at least have an affinity to it (rather than seeing themselves as fully black, I can correct myself there).That thinking leads to the erasure of actual black people with two black parents.

Mixed race people living in a predominantly white country will find themselves well immersed in white culture by by virtue of being here. Her acknowledgement of her (part) blackness isnāt her shutting away her whiteness.A lot of black (African) people won't see them as black either.
Anyway, it's a richness, like other people who grow up with a double culture (colour aside). They should embrace all their cultures/origins.
Actually, if I remember well, Grace's father wasn't very present. Maybe she idealises that side of the family for that reason.
Her mum sounds like a saint tbh, I wonder if sheāll be taking on two under two this often going forward? I wouldnāt wish that task on anybodyWhatās a while Grace? Three daysā¦ the boy probably sees her Mumās as home more than his actual home. Thatās prob why heās more settled there, behaves better.
youāve put it perfectly. rankGod I cant stand her insta posts any more. Her lips always have dribble on them and the wet sounds she makes, it looks like shes gurning and has no teeth. And then the lip smacks to stop the dribble coming out. So gross. 100% if you are sitting next to her she would be spitting all over you. BLEH
