Race is so useless. Like in 2014 you can't even trace exactly where your roots are from 'cus it's just too far past unless your family and every generation is STRAIGHT from that country.
I'm not mixed with anything, I'm 100% first generation in the UK Somali
It is important since it gives people a sense of belonging and pride in where they're from and their culture. If there was no race then people would find something else to discriminate others with
The one race (ethnicity??) I truly have a problem with is "hispanic".
My new friend is Colombian/Mexican and I told him he was probably white (he's not brown like Guero) and he insists that he's neither white nor black, but "Hispanic". Wtf...
