Is it just me or do mixed race people get a lot of hate

It happens to me a lot. I get dirty looks everywhere I go I have even been told I should go to hell because I am half black and half white. I live in a small southern town and have caught hate from people of both races. It became bad when people learn my parents were never married got worse when my parents split up Is it just me or do other mixed race people get a lot of hate too?

    You didn't have any control over what your parents were. Most people in the South may not agree with mixing, but that doesn't mean that they blame you- just find you as an oddity. And there are as many racists in Boston or Portland as there are in Mississippi- the difference is, people who don't like you in the South are up front about it, whereas Yankees will smile in your face and then spit on your back. A lot of it here is about who you know, and how you act--- if you act like a gangbanger, well, then you get what you get.

    Racism in general is a problem that won't ever go away until we stop talking about "race" altogether.

    Mixed race pepole don't get hate in the East or West coast, and especially not in big cities, it's probably the area you live in. I'd suggest you move, places like Organ, Washington or New England can be cheap alternatives to move to, you live in the most racist part of the country, and I know it must suck, but most racists will stay racist, also moving to big cities can also greatly decrease the number of racist you run into. If you are too young, or can't move, just know that all these idiots and bullies will stay the same awful people, but you have the ability to go long distances and make them wish they were you! 😉 Good luck 👍🏻

    I don't know from any sort of first hand experience, but I think it's a shitty way to act and mixed race people look better than a lot of other people.

      I agree tbh

      I'm sure people will blast me for "fetishizing" and shit, but I think mixed and generally racially ambiguous people are the most beautiful.

      Don't know why exactly, they just are to me.

    Hey, i feel the same. My country really hates China and Chinese people but i'm mixed Chinese. A lot of the time i hide my heritage and gets scared if a stranger knows about it, i have a lot of racist experiences and seen a lot of it in my life that happens towards people like me. But you just try to live with it and don't care much about what other people think

  • I live in a small town and I get dirty looks all the time. I'm white. Sometimes its not about race, but just people in general. You may just be sensitive to it because you already feel as though you don't fit in because of the fact that you are mixed.
