I am biracial but don't look like my family. I don't see my Australian (Dad's) side of my family and I am very close with my Sri Lankan (Mum's) side but I don't look related to them. I am loved by them but PHYSICALLY, I don't fit in. (In large family gatherings, I have often been mistaken for a relative's girlfriend and not actually a relative.) I see myself as cut in half - but feel my Sri Lankan side is much stronger than the other, mainly because I am so much more connected to my Lankan family than Australian. I am biracial...but whenever I say that, or say I am Sri Lankan (which I have the right to), I am either critized or laughed at for being too "white". I am well aware that I have more of my father's pigmentation than my mother's...but I am both of them. I was born here but I am both Sri Lankan AND Australian. The Duchess of Sussex (Meghan Markle), Bob Marley, Frida Kahlo & Halle Berry are just some of the awesome biracial people who have spoken about embracing BOTH sides of their ethnicities. I am of both Sri Lankan and Australian blood and I am proud of my roots. I am biracial whether one thinks I look it or not. #WithInAndWithOut #Biracial #Mixed #BiracialPride #MixedPride #SriLankan #Australian #Burgher #Family #Identity #Belonging #Melanin #Pigmentation #SkinCokour

Non siete degli alleati dei neri semplicemente perchè parlate di #razzismo e promuovete le ideologie del "one drop rule" (una sola goccia di sangue nero non fa di una persona un nero, ma un Mixed). I bianchi non possono parlarci della nostra #identità non più di quanto non facciano i neri. Se sei bianco e stai crescendo dei bambini #mixed , sopprimendo il loro lato bianco, e faccendoli identificare esclusivamente come neri, stai praticando la supremazia bianca nella tua stessa casa e abusando mentalmente dell'identità di tuo figlio. Cresceranno confusi e affronteranno una crisi di identità quando gli verrà ricordato che "non sono abbastanza neri". Insegna loro ad essere orgogliosi del loro essere nero, del loro essere bianchi, del loro essere asiatici, del loro essere arabi. Insegna loro ad essere orgogliosi della loro mescolanza. Siamo Mixed! Nè i bianchi né i neri hanno il diritto di controllare il nostro essere Mixed, o di parlare di questioni che ci riguardano o affermare di sapere cosa ci motiva ad essere chi siamo. . 🗣 @taliavoider #BeTheVoice #mixedpride #wearemixed #meticcio #meticciato #mescolanza https://www.instagram.com/p/CTwg0h0sOM2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Dear white people, You are not an ally to black people for speaking on mixedness and promoting antimixedness and one drop ideologies. White people don't get to tell us about our identities no more than black people do. If you are white and you are raising mixed race children to suppress their white side and exclusively identify as black, you're practicing white supremacy in your own home and mentally abusing your own child's identity. They will grow up confused and face an identity crisis when they're reminded that they're "not quite black enough". Teach then to be proud of the blackness they do have, the whiteness they do have, the Asian they do have, the Arabic they do have. Teach them to be proud of all of that combined into what we call mixedness. We are Mixed Race! White people nor black people have the right to police our mixedness, speak on mixed issues, or claim to know what motivates us to be who we are. . . . 🗣 @taliavoider . . . #BeTheVoice #mixedpride #wearemixed #loveyourbrowness #mixedempowerment #mixedknowledge #mixedculture #mixed #mixedexistence #mixedinfluencers #mixedmotivation #mixedexcellence #mixedmelanin #biracial #biracialtribes #selflove #selfbeing #mixedheritage #mixedawareness #mixedworld #mixedpeople #multiracial #mixedrace #identity #misto #sanguemisto #metissage #identità #multiculturale https://www.instagram.com/p/CTwgWTcs5RM/?utm_medium=tumblr

Yeah! Being biracial can be complicated. You don't really fit in anywhere (& it can be hard when you don't look like your family). . . . . . . . . . . . . #Mixed #MixedPride #BiracialPride #Biracial #MixedGirl
