via @courtneyxha: Why do you LOVE @logic so much? Well he knows what it is like to be biracial — you’re invalid, wrong and no one will claim you. While I grew up in Ohio, it was just a known thing to the kids at school that I was both black and white, but it also didn’t really matter to them what I was. However, the fact that they knew and ACKNOWLEDGED my racial identity, made me feel normal. I have always been proud of my blackness, yet understand I do not have the same struggles as fully black folk. But, when I moved to Maryland, my racial identity was questioned by my peers. Not only questioned, but INVALIDATED. Living in Maryland and then in NYC everyone thought I was something I absolutely wasn’t. I evolved into this racially ambiguous being that made me feel unseen. I would constantly have racial identity crises, and still do sometimes. I’m biracial, and I’ve had many people tell me I’m not — which makes absolutely no sense. So I am blessed to have someone to look up to and relate to through music who is unapologetically biracial. Thank you Bobby Hall. Thank you for making me feel seen.” 🙌🏼🙏🏿🎶 #MixedBoyMonday #mixedboys #biracial #mixedrace #logic #MCM #repost #instadaily #art #style #rapper #music #issavibewednesday #hiphop #lyrics #everybody #mixedraceproblems #mondaymotivation #StatStory #multiracial #mixedboy https://www.instagram.com/p/B4djpkGlBBT/?igshid=3ukqmyeotzxz
