Are people who are 25 percent white and 75 percent black consitered biracial or black?
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.

How do the terms biracial and multiracial relate to WEB Dubois notion of a color line?
W.E.B. Du Bois's notion of the "color line" refers to the social and economic divisions created by racial discrimination, primarily between Black and white individuals. In this context, the terms biracial and multiracial highlight the complexities of identity that arise from having parents of different racial backgrounds. These identities can challenge the rigid boundaries of the color line, as biracial and multiracial individuals often navigate multiple racial and cultural affiliations. Thus, their existence calls into question the binary nature of racial categorization that Du Bois critiqued.
Why when a biracial man is with a white woman they are considered an interrracial couple but with a black woman they are considered a black couple?
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.
