Glad to find your site. I am in a Multiracial family, my husband is black, I am white we have a child together and I have 2 white children from a prev. marriage. It is not easy: the looks, the comments, our families are not all supportive: My father, g.mother, &uncle and his sisters don't support us at all. We have alot of strain in our relationship, but I want it to work and I am hoping your site might help me. |

Great site! Too much to take in on one visit- I have bookmarked this site for frequent returns. I think that the
current climate of denying religious freedom to all has contributed to lack of tolerance in all areas. Please visit
my site soon. |

Hey guys! Great site. I am a multiracial/int'l adoptee, who have suffered for years under the systematic caucasian influence, which almost erased my Korean identity. Luckily I managed to re-find it and create my own identity before it was completely gone. I now live in Canada and I love this place, it's the most multicultural/racial place I have ever been, more tolerant than Europe (where I grew up). Keep up the good work. |

I am not in a multiracial relationship. However, I believe strongly in your cause. May I join your organization? |

I enjoy your website. I hope people realize in this great nation of ours that there is no pure race or race period. We're human beings, period. |

What a wonderful site! Thank you for all you are doing to teach tolerance and understanding. With more sites like yours, we can begin to put a stop to the hate and violence that is perpetrated through ignorance. Blessings on you this new year. JRK |

I just wanted to let you know that I really like this page. I am a multi-racial adoptee and you wouldn't know (but you probably do know) the kinds of questions I've gotten over the years about my ethnicity. I come from a multi-racial family and it is not always easy to explain my family or my heritage to people. I hate the fact that many of us multiracial people have to choose between "being" one race or another. The choice should be there for us to be whomever we want without having to deny one part just to belong with another. |

My Mother is half Native American and half African. She taught us that everyone is either full or partial African! Everyone came from Africa. As soon as we stop running from Africa, we will ALL be able to enjoy the human experience . . . we are ALL in this thing together. |

Why are you anti-racists so obsessed with labelling and identifying people.
There should be NO questions on race, country of origin, or religion on any census form. The only answer for "race" should be human. When free equal citizens
are forced to label themselves for the authorities, it makes it easier for oppression to
occur at some future time.
Only when the equal worth and
dignity of the individual,
based on his humanity is recognized will racism be eliminated...it will not be eliminated by subdividing people into special interest racial/ethnic/religious groups.
Racial identification only allows
special interest groups to lobby for more funds and
programs for "their" group,
to the detrament of society as a whole.
If I am forced to self identify on any census form,
then I will enter something to reflect MY race and Heritage: ARYAN
FLY THE ENSIGN FOR FREEDOM!!!!
Reply: Actually, if you read the website like a big boy, you'd see that we advocate elimination of "racial" classifications. A quick look at your guestbook shows a lot of angry responses to your world-wide blitz of nasty guestbook entries. Perhaps a little "people skills" training is in order my angry friend. And my, my, you self-identify as "Aryan."
Perhaps that is your real problem with this website... |

I was excited to happen upon your web page. However, being a biracial Lesbian involved in an interracial relationship, I was disappointed and some what annoyed to read the phrase "Opposites Attract" within your web site. The language is obviously appropriated from a heterosexist view point. Opposite genders do not necessarily attract. I am also not in an interracial relationship because she was the "opposite" of me. Also, given that the web site is dedicated towards examining the issues of multiracial peoples, the use of language that places people in binaries seems somewhat hypocritical.
Reply: Ms. Otsuka:
Thank your for visiting The Multiracial Activist. Also, thanks for signing the guestbook, but in the future, please do some fact checking before calling someone heterosexist and hypocritical. Nowhere on this site do the words "opposites attract" appear except in the links page and maybe on the webrings page. The link is to a dating organization, that I am NOT associated with. I did not name the organization and don't run it, I simply provide a link to it. This is something that even a child can understand.
Do not chastise me for something I didn't do. None of my writings say opposites attract anywhere. Claims to the contrary are lies. Period. |

It would be great if statistical information was listed. The numbers are growing, but at what rate. Also, what about children of different religious affiliations. |

We are a multi-ethnic family of five looking for support. We are descended from at least eight different races, religions, cultures, etc. Jim is "white", Terri is "black". Our oldest child is very dark-skinned. The others are very light-skinned. We look forward to sharing experiences with others like us. |
