The tragic story of the children born to Norwegian women and German soldiers during World War II is a prime example of how “race” can be created out of nothing, especially when groups are in conflict.
These Nordic “pure” lebensborn folks are “tragic mulattoes” in the extreme.

Indeed, can “race” and “mixed race” really exist UNLESS two or more groups are in conflict? If Mama is a Bosnian Muslim and Daddy is a Bosnian Serb, aren’t you more of a “mulatto” than your American white/black counterpart?
