America is a melting pot of nationalities. Not only do we have several individual races in this country but we also have several mixed races that create new beautuiful ethnicities that help make America so culturally diverse. These mixed races, such as Afro-Latinos and Afro-Indians are combinations of strong cultural backgrounds that come together to create people who should be proud to represent both of the cultures. However, many of these people are not able to truly represent both sides of their culture.
Unfortunately, people of mixed race are often forced to choose one or the other depending on which ever race they can most easily identify with. It's a sad reality, but this takes place in America more than you would ever imagine. Hopefully one day, people will be able to truthfully answer when they are asked the question, " What's your mix?"
