I agree with just about everything you stated but I just want to make a correction- by definition, Latino is not a race

Well how about this: you have your opinion, I have mine. Your opinion is that anybody with brown skin is black (which incidentally would make tan caucasians black), and mine is that 2 black parents=one black offspring
I consider a person black, if they have at least one black parent. White people do not have any black parents at all. -

What's really important isn't one's race. After all, we're all members of one race: the Human Race (a.k.a. Homo Sapiens). Jasmine Guy happens to be a member of that Race, and still a very attractive member at that.
Too bad her former husband doesn't appreciate that. -

She is 100% mixed.
Who cares if whites don't see her as "white"? Newsflash: SHE ISN'T. Nor is she black. It's so political of mixed people to consider themselves as one race while totally denying their other half it's an insecure cry for inclusion. -

In today's climate, where anybody with a DROP of white blood (Tiger Woods, Maraiah Carey, Alicia Keys etc.) is quick to say "I'm Bi-racial, not BLACK" and will step out with a white boy or girl in a heartbeat, it's nice to know that SOMEBODY from a mixed relationship is embracing their true BLACK blood. Go Jasmine!!!

Exactly, you can't just neglect your other half. It is awfully insecure of blacks who get all up in arms when people of mixed ethnicities actually celebrate who they are and embrace all parts of them, instead of trying to pacify the black community, be it for political reasons or what have you. Is's a shame.
