Quote

I'm black and Cuban, Australian and Irish, and like most people in America, I'm someone whose roots come from somewhere else. I'm a mixed race, first-generation American.

I am half Scottish. My father is an expat from Glasgow, and on my mother's side there's a bit of French, a bit of Scottish, a bit of Irish.

You gotta understand, my great-grandfather was German and Irish. My grandmother was Indian, and my grandfather was African-American, so we all got a little something in us.

My parents are Irish, my grandparents are Irish, my great-grandparents are Irish. I was born in England; my blood is Irish.

I think of myself as being Jewish and Irish, despite the fact that I'm English.

My mother is Irish, my father is black and Venezuelan, and me - I'm tan, I guess.

I'm three quarters Scottish, but I sound English. I don't really see British as a race.

I'm Scottish first, and it's odd to hear that I'm a Scottish-American.
