As someone who is biracial myself I am very aware of the tension between different people. I grew up being looked at negatively by both sides. I wasn't black enough for that side and the other side was even worse. I am the result of an intimate assault and imagine what it feels like to know that your biological grandfather is the Grand Klegle of the local chapter of the KuKlux Klan. I have had the living daylights beat out of me by both the blacks and the whites. I do have to give my bio father credit though because after he finished his jail sentence for assaulting my mother he stepped up and renounced his Klan affiliation and his racist family to financially support my mother and I. My mother struggled for a long time but now gets along well with my father and later told him that she has no ill feelings for him because she has seen the efforts to make things right including fighting against his racist upbringing. He actually provided the evidence that put his own father in prison for what is effectively the rest of his life for his racist crimes. It has not been easy for me but I have learned lessons that 99.99% of the rest of the world will never have to experience and in a way I am thankful for that.
My sister in law married a black man I was the only one in the family that went to their wedding. I was asked why I went and I laughing said “I was invited!” They were all super pissed. I didn’t care. They also raised hell when I invited them to our Christmas party. My mother in law told me I shouldn’t have done that. I told her it’s my house too and I knew her son would act like an adult. We all actually had a great time and my SIL told me it was the best Christmas party they ever went to.
I was disowned , called horrid things , my sons were called racist names by my family for years , my mom died with out them , they didnt care when my dad went , my racist uncle is on his way out . They dont even know his name , If you have a racist in your family... Write them out.
The main problem with letting others use your pool is that you then become responsible for any injuries or drownings that take place. You also have no idea what someone else might put in the water. Definitely a bad idea and it’s hard to believe anyone would feel that entitled.
They were aware of her antagonistic behaviour towards the child but only acted when she singed his hair??? Why wasn’t the issue addressed years before. Documenting her behaviour and abuse doesn’t help her in any way meaningful
My son's dad was black, my parents had a new car and would take us for a drive. As my son was getting in the car he put his little hand on the side of the car and my mother said get your dirty hand off the car, we did not go for that drive, that hurt😢
If he was a white child and they said that would you have had the same reaction? Maybe the comment was a literal one and your sensitivity took it out of context
@@katywuste9054 my mother was a racist, that's how I found out she wanted me to bleach his skin. I loved my son, cancer took him in the end.so no I did not take it out of context
What a great story, but, would have been much better to have background to have represented the support of biracial unity/family Love & support ❗🙏❤️🤗✌️
My husband has said get your dirty hands off my car but it had nothing to do with racism. He literally meant their hands were dirty. Sorry for your experience.
