<p dir="auto">I remember Jasmine saying that she couldn't understand why people would always ask her why she calls herself "black". But she's not black; she's mixed (I'm black so don't get offended). She always denies her other half. That's why people don't like it when she calls herself black.</p>

<p dir="auto">That's pretty much the only issue I have with race except when people act like the majority is better than the minority.</p>

<p dir="auto">Why is it even an issue?  As a black woman, I have to wonder why so many people of color make such an issue of race.</p>

<p dir="auto">Well I don't care how people reguard her. She's biracial to me.</p>

<p dir="auto">She says she's black for the same reason most bi- or multi-racial people with African ancestry say they're black - because most white people would never accept them as white, and they would never be regarded as anything but black. When you see JG and women who look like her, do you see a light-skinned black woman, or a dark-skinned white woman? It's not their fault if they're largely shunned by whites, and largely accepted by blacks. Also, I wouldn't say she 'denies' her heritage - she often praises her mother in interviews. But she's smart enough to know that people regard her as black.<br />
[wave 3] Whatever you wish for me, I hope you have twice as much.</p>
