In an earlier question, a responder answered, stating an opinion, that bi-racial people are "considered the biggest threat to both black and to whites". http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AnSf4H77I7vrfkUP6Ov.nW3sy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100730095036AApWiob&show=7#profile-info-bH0WX8Alaa I don't agree with this and I wondered what you folks think--especially if you are bi-racial or black. As far as American history is concerned, bi-racial people--"mulattoes", "mixed race people"--are not now and have NEVER been a threat to the black race. And one of the reasons why I say this is because most black people HAVE some degree of European DNA in their family tree. You'd be hard pressed to find a black American family that doesn't have white blood relatives somewhere back in their family tree. And nearly all of us who are black, know of or have some relatives in our family who is mixed race or "mulatto". Black people are USED to mixed blood being in the race. For mixed race people to be a threat, American blacks would have to be more like the pure-blooded Gullahs who used to live in a very isolated world in South Carolina years ago. The fact of the matter is, that the black race IN AMERICA is already a mixture of African, European and Native Indian to certain degrees, depending on the family and region they're from. What I will say the REAL THREAT IS, is the entire BLACK RACE UNITED and remaining UNITED, is a threat to those who believe in white supremacy. Mixed race people like Adam Clayton Powell, Walter White, Malcolm X, Benjamin Jealous (current bi-racial president of the NAACP) and others, have worked for the betterment and benefit of the black race. And that's not being a threat, that's being an ASSET. No. All black people UNITED, is the real threat to those whites (and their uncle tom boot lickers) who do not believe in justice for all. What is your opinion? Do you think bi-racial people are a "threat" to the black race?... Read More »
