MixedMom manages the women-only forums. By now, she has probably read this and is authorizing you. If you are still not authorized in the next few hours, send her a private message. If nothing happens by tomorrow, let me know. |

Hi,
I would like posting privileges. It'll be interesting to be able to have an adult conversion about race and racial issues online without having it degenerate into the usual internet nastiness. |

Hello Everyone
I am an African girl (East Africa) and live in London. I came across your website couple of weeks ago and I love it.
I am from a country where the majority of people are african and I have never seen any racism until I arrived in Europe (where I had to indentify myself as black because of my skin colour). Where I come from there is no such thing as a "black person" (neither white, yellow, bi-racial for that matter) everyone has an ethnicity and identifies as such regardless of your skin colour, your hair texture ...etc....
I find fascinating the way people label themselves. So I got interested in "races" , I got to know the ODR, racial issues in the US, Latin America and It think it would be great if I can participate in these forums.
So if anyone can allow me to post comments , please do so and thank you
Era

Hello everybody!
I'm from Spain, and I find these forums interesting.
My race is european, but when I visited the USA I was forced to identify as white, which sounded stupid to me: I'm not a colour, I'm just the son of my parents and the product of the upbringing in my parent's culture, so I'm Spanish.
I would like to post in the forums.
Thanks! |

Hi Mouse,
What do you mean by "mgm black mom"? What does mgm stand for?
EDIT:
Nevermind. I googled MGM, race and black. I figured out that it must mean multigenerational mixed black mom. |

What an interesting concept! We could benefit from that in the U.S.A. |
