I read so much stuff that black women say, especially about my relationship. 'Oh, he left his black wife to go be with some exotic chick.' First of all, my girl is black: she's Jamaican.

Not only do I not want to be stereotyped as this Asian girl who fights - gee, what a wonder - but also I have more to offer than that.

Sometimes I even feel funny to say I'm in a biracial marriage because people are like, 'Oh, he's Asian?' The subtext is, 'Who cares? You didn't marry a black person.'

I'm Armenian, but I'm very fair and I look white... I would always get such hate about it.

I am going to stop calling you a white man and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man.

Yeah, I make fun of blacks, and why not? I'm not a black.

People wanna say that they're part Native American or mixed, or anything other than black. We're raised to believe that there's something better about not being fully black, something eccentric about it. I'm saying I used to tell girls that I was mixed, which is a bold-faced lie!

I don't judge people by their sexual orientation or the color of their skin, so I find it really hard to identify someone by saying that they're a gay person or a black person or a Jewish person.

My whole life is an interracial relationship! It's inescapable. I am who I am.

I have friends who are black whose families opened their arms to them when they came out; I have friends who were white where they were rejected.
