People who don't know this must not know up from down. Especially, when they are them selves. Shame on them!
people who are only 1/4 white but the rest of them is black are consitered black. It's that simple, they are not biracial or multiracial. Biracial people are people that are 50/50 in blood and multiracial people have more then 3 races in them. So if a biracial(black/white) has children with a white person it's either that kid is consitered white or biracial but if that biracial person has children with a black person, those children are black. Once you have 75% or more black blood in you you are black. For example Barack Obama daughters are in this category, those children are black girls with 25% white blood in them, and grow up as black women, which they are. So unless that biracial person marrys someone of another race, that's when the kids will be called multiracial. But also take into consideration that almost all blacks in the U.S. with slave ancestry have some white blood in them.
Biracial means having two races, i.e. white and black. Multiracial means having multiple races, i.e. 1/4 black, 1/4 white, and 1/2 latino.
Because biracial (both black & white) men in America for the most part are treated for the most part as black men because majority of the time they look black so their are judged as black men. So when a Biracial (black/white) man is with a white woman, they are not seeing a biracial man with a white women, but a black man with a white women, so people label them as an interracial couple. On the other hand, when they are with a black woman, nobody sees the difference, since both are judged as black; they are considered a black couple, not an interracial couple.
A half-white and half-black child is called a Multiracial.
NO. She is Biracial (black & white) she was adopted by a Portuguese family.

No, because there is no such thing as "biracial". She is a non white person that identifies as black. Yes, she is in fact a product of two different races. She is African American and Native American.
His mother is white and his father is black
Most of the time, yes, because she looks White. However, she is really multiracial (white mother/biracial Black/White Hispanic father).
yes he is.but he hangs around black people.
You mean mixed, as in biracial? If so, yes. His mother is white and his father is black.
Lionel Richie is a Afro American simply because he African American and he has a afro.
A biracial child is neither black nor white. They are both.
His mother is white and his father is black. That makes him biracial. Just because the racist media keeps calling him our 'first black president' does not mean they are correct. He is half white. The only people who have issues with this are racist black people who try to claim him as fully black. They know they are wrong.
Nearly any color, ranging mostly from a dark, reddish blonde to black.
i believe is biracial but I'm just guessing
