First I wanted to wish you a very Happy New Year. I really liked hearing your story. I would love to hear more, especially about maybe when you were a teen and dealing with having both feet in the racial door. I am white/jewish and my husband is south east asian. Our eldest is now a teen and is having problems with where she belongs. She tells me that she is having problems fiting into asian groups because she is too white but she is also experiencing problems of being considered too asian for the white groups. On top of that she is jewish while 99% of her friends are not. I cannot tell her what is right or wrong because I am not mixed. I wanted her to start a group for 1/2 mixed children that way she could be around others that are mixed and have the same problems. I digress. I would love to be able to hear from more authors like yourself that have gone through the ups and downs. Thank you!
