as far as the boricua comment...how do you think they are treated?
i know plenty of mixed race people and while they all claim all of their heritage they normally associate (hang around) mostly blacks or mostly whites. that's what i see.
and i wasn't referencing the color of your skin. that means nothing. at the end of the day you don't look white so you won't be treated as such.

I guess its different according to where you live, even inside a country. That's more often than not the case becauseblack people are more likely to hang around in groups of their own, and so are white ppl (just because of common culture), so unless mixed race ppl say hung out just with each other or another race, that's likely to happen, as in some areas there aren't too mnay groups of friends with both white and black ppl.
