"When you [call biracial kids Black], you risk disrespecting that one half of who you are and that's my fear," he explains to Chris Witherspoon at theGrio.com. "I don't want my son to be in a situation where he calls himself Black and everyone thinks he has a Black mom and a Black dad, and then they see a white mother, they wonder, 'Oh, what's going on?'"

Oh what's going on? Really? Because peoples heads would fly off right?

Everybody refers to him as the first Black president. I’m not saying it’s wrong, I’m just saying that it’s interesting. It would be great if it didn’t matter and that people could call him mixed. We’re still choosing to make that decision, and that’s when I think you get into some dangerous waters.”

"Dangerous waters"? How?!
All this looks like to me is that he's for whatever reason
afraid of his son being labelled a black man for his own selfish reasons. Taye we get it, you had a baby with a white woman. Would you like for your son to wear a sticker on his back letting everyone know?
