Mess
but she's not black, she's mixed

She's biracial, but that doesn't make her any less black.
It's like someone who is Mexican and Italian. They aren't any less Mexican or Italian. They are simply both Mexican and Italian.

If she looks like this:

There are really no lies.

Exactly. If you're mixed with black, you're still black. It doesn't make you any less black or not black enough.

What an ignorant statement

wow

If I saw her, at least from that pic, I'd think she was a white woman with a serious tan.

But yeah, if she's mixed, she's still black and she shouldn't be fired. Not only is that disgusting, but it's illegal as well. Collect your due coins!

Most of the black women on tv tend to be on the lighter side too

She's mixed with black, therefore she's black. When you're biracial you're two races, it's not like those races cancel each other out or anything If she were darker skinned, but still biracial, then she'd probably be considered black enough and everything would be fine. It's plain offensive to tell a biracial person that because they favor one race physically over the other, that they don't get to identify as both of the races that they are.

Bunch of Racists. Glad she got her money.

Be careful, sis. You're treading a dangerous line on ATRL with that Bey comparison.
