Book - The Third Option (2018)

The Third Option
- Hope for a Racially Divided Nation

by Miles McPherson

Apparently, it is more important to people that you figure if you're only as smart if you're one race or if another race is okay.  So, if you're mixed race, it doesn't answer any of their questions.

I don't like when people who aren't as white worship white people and condone me still like they still have something.

Racism also means holding someone innocent at bay because if your racial qualms and personal irritations.

It might be all a joke to make nonwhite/mixed people feel inappropriate when they acknowledge racism, like it's just a moment of awkwardness...

The author says fair skin and eyes and straight hair are ideal.  I know how straight hair must be an ideal, though it was popular with kids my age to have attractive, fluffy or curly rather, blonde hair, though it was just a dream to acknowledge.

I don't like how the author assumes Asian is a race ... Latino is a race.  The author I think is half black and white.  If you call a white white with respect, you don't hold Asians hostage like they're black.
