I may not get any love on this from the past points made but, in all honesty......you won't be able to control who people mate with. And I'm saying that from alot of observations I've made with family members and friends of mine. There will always be our people who will stick together to have families that are purely not mixed. My thing is......I don't say hey, go out and date outside your race because thats a bogus mentality to who you are. People go for who they go for and I don't control who people date when it comes to their personal relationships. But if they ask my personal advice, I will tell them straight up everything I feel on the matter. Especially with IR, what they should be prepared for and why they should think it through carefully because of what our society reflects in terms of racism.

And I'm sorry but, some really close friends of mine are mixed and I got the most upright respect for them for what they deal with racially; maybe its because I know them personally they've had my back more than even straight up white and straight black people have. And also because I'll never know what the hell it means to be caught between two races or mistaken for completely different one. If you want to disagree me with on these points, its all good. Just my personal perspective on it.
