beautiful bi-racial baby

This baby is black just like Barack Obama and Halle Berry. If they didn’t tell you that their mother was white you would never know. Obama and Hallie both Identify as black

Keep in mind that being mixed means being mixed, not looking white. Halle Berry looks a lot like old drawings and paintings you would see of quadroon women in the past, especially when she doesn’t have her suntan.

What is a quadroon again?- I hadn’t seen that in a long time…:-)
Yes, most of the world will see little Lou as black, she is brown and will likely get darker as most babies of color tend to do and has a black dad.
I am not bi-racial though, so don’t feel I can relate enough to tell them how to feel, do or think when it comes to how they choose to ID but I can see both sides of some of the points being made.

Leo, I fully agree with you!

I believe the truth is the truth. This child is black and thats that. I don’t care what she calls herself. When she grows up and goes to hail a cab, she will be black. In real life and in the real world, people call them like they see them Black.
I say, Say it Loud I am Black and I am Proud. People act like its a crime to say they are black. I don’t care if you are purple you should be proud of who you are. You have so many people going around telling their kids that they are Bi-racial so they don’t have to say that they are black, and what not and no one cares.
If you look black you are black and embrace it. Black is Beautiful I know I am, and I am brown-skinned babe. In my 40′s and look like I am 25. You see how God has blessed us with beautiful long lasting skin. I love being BLack

The baby is mixed. To say she is only black is to deny her mother.

“if you look black, you’re black.”
Huh??? Oookkkayyy.

Heidi carried her babies for nine months, and it is also her DNA that runs 50/50
throughout her children’s bodies. You would not like your kids to disown you for whatever reason, so why label these babies because their dad is of African heritage and erase their mother. The one drop rule is slavery mentality and we black people are more educated now than to truly believe genetically only one parent contributes to the human body. If this were true I would have erased my deadbeat father’s gene’s years ago.

I am a black mother and my children are half white(father). They look Italian or spanish and I teach them to love all of their heritage, not just one. It would break my heart to one day have kids deny their black heritage just because they could pass for something else. It took a black woman and white man to make them and that is who they are….
Heidi’s BI-RACIAL children are beauties

Lou is such a beautiful baby girl! And she is turning mocha too! LOL Not that it is a bad thing, but the browner skinned mixed race babies are so often over looked or under valued. She is gorgeous and is going to grow up looking just look Heidi. I can already see it in her eyes.

Yes, Heidi’s babies are mixed – as in they carry half her genetic material and half of Seal’s. As far as race goes, it is not a real entity worth anymore discussion than that which is necessary to explain it away. It’s social implications ,however, are very real and many people can claim solidarity over that.
ALL of the world’s populations are 99.9% related. What we all use to identify a person’s race is just the result of our ancestor’s adaptation to a particular environment, or more so their tendency to have babies with those close in proximity to them – their kin. It’s all true. There’s a well-established reason for the existence of massive populations of blond-haired & blue-eyed, or curly-haired and dark skinned folk. To their ancestors those traits were most likely considered the most attractive, or most available.
Historically speaking (in our times), white skin has represented “beauty”, “purity” “youth” “fertility” and that a person was of “divine” favor. But in some of the world’s most remote areas, white skin was and still is like a “bad omen” from God(s). As a result, many people born with albinism in those areas live(d) as outcasts. And little known to many, there are several forms of albinism that only affect some parts of the body. One of those gave rise to the white skinned tribes of Europe. The sequencing of the human genome has led to the debunking of one of science’s most heinous crimes: “The Race Myth”.
Just to get an idea of how the “races” can evolve, check out wikipedia’s numerous articles on “race and genetics” with particular regard to people who have significant & “recent” sub-Saharan African contribution to their gene pool but don’t necessarily show it. For example: Brazilians, Puerto-Ricans, Cubans, Afro-Caribbeans, Greeks, some groups in India, all middle-east groups, North Africans(Berbers, Moroccans, Egyptians), Spaniards,Hispanics, Portuguese, Southern Italians, and most groups with ancient ancestral ties to the Iberian peninsula including some Celtic folk : ). All of these groups have an ethnic identity that exists apart from skin color.
If you’d like to go further than that start with the research of Dr. Rick Kittles and crew, and follow it out from there. They don’t teach our kids this stuff in school, but the truth is and has always been around.
Looking “Black” does not and should not make a person “Black”. Society and the world can think as it pleases, but at the end of the day, the individual needs to take charge over his or her identity. The terms “Black”, “White”, “Hispanic”, “Asian”, etc. actually refer to culture and experiences anyway. When Barack and Halle say that they are Black, they are really saying that those are the people whose experiences they most identify with. Determining a person’s “race” by what they look like is apart of the old imperialistic ideology that said black skin was a curse. This sentiment was spread all over the world in an attempt to justify the decimation of other humans, their culture, and the raping of their homelands. Unfortunately, it still thrives in our societies today.
We’ve all been shaped by experiences that are intricately linked to how we look outside. It’s not right – as there is so much more than what meets the eye. But isn’t it kind of backward to define ourselves only under those terms that have been designated to us by our oppressors? It’s time to break of those chains that have had us all bound once and for all if we’re to move forward. Let’s focus on individual character rather than supposed group identities. They just don’t tell the whole story, the truth – that our experiences are far more varied than the hues of our skins.
