I feel you I grew up mixed, really light skinned in Kenya in an all black neighborhood and I've never being accepted by either black or white people, it's quite rough Glad to see another mixed Kenyan person talking about this
Well, I am Kenyan wa bara and I learnt a hard lesson dealing with different races of Kenyans. I was living in San Francisco and was at a gym, saw this cute guy (Caucasian) and decided to call my friend and gush about him in Kiswahili, as he is across me doing his exercise, like for sure he won't know what I am talking about. Girl, once the call was done...."jameni ng'oja nitoke, lakini nashukuru sifa ulizonipa" 😆😂 like no foreign accent at all with it. If anything my swa was the one with an accent 😂 Never again....
Im from Trinidad 🇹🇹 mixed Indian/Black. I never had problems til i come to England as a kid. I wasn't indian enough to be indian and wasnt black enough to be black. Only in england though
I died at 6:13 I'm Zambian and light skinned and pretty fat so prices of things are raised immediately. When I went to the victoria falls the lady at the ticket office at the gate didn't want to accept I was Zambian so I showed her my ID, had I not shown her the ID I'd have been charged international price which is $30 instead of the local $1🤣
I feel and relate to this so MUCH! I’m biracial (black and white) but I’m American and wow my head is spinning lol I’ve had many similar experiences… Great video 😊😊
I find this weird because in the coast isn't there a lot of mixed people already because of the long history of arab,indian presence etc? But I went through similar things but in Nairobi, it wasn't that bad, but once in a while i used to get called "mzungu".
abikamau yes there’s a lot of mixed people but not a lot of European mixed with African, where the two have completely different cultures, religion, language, moral practices etc! Will do a video on this soon :)
I’m Ghanaian/British and my wife is Dominican/Spanish mixed race - British. I died at “100% profit today” 🤣. This is a very interesting and honest video, new sub 👏🏿
It's Funny to me that some people in this comment section find it odd that mixed race people are called white in African nations. Im biracial BW and though I'm in the US, I've been made aware by others over the years that Black Africans often see Biracials as white and call them Misugunu (I don't know if I wrote that right if not I apologize). This seems perfectly valid. Biracials are mixed race not monoracial Africans nor should they be seen as that .
My dear have enjoyed your video soo much, this is because have lived in Italy for 27 yrs & at the beginning I lived in Rome then moved to Milan & being black was like hey girl you are beautiful & I got privileges of job of public relation in conversations on the entrance. So I enjoyed my life but 4 yrs ago we moved to south Puglia, this is tourists part of Italy, at the beginning me & my husband we will go for breakfast in the Bar as is Italian culture ESPRESSO & 🥐 CORNETTO, & This is the point, normally I don't drink espresso but American coffee 🙄 my dear as soon as they hear American coffee the price is 3 times. But in Milan price was normal. So whenever we will move we will meet challenges. Take care I enjoyed this video
Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed your video and even though am not female I can relate with a lot of what you were saying. Mixed race and grew up in Msa too. Good luck with your YouTubing. You should do another video about being mixed race in Kenya lakini this time let’s see about the positives of being mixed race (you know what they are...). Ps: and let’s hear some of that Swahili swag yarabi
I am a mum to a mixed race children, half white and from Mombasa too. All I can say is that, coastal folks really value the local traditions and if you stay there and are consistently blending with the culture then you are more likely to be accepted. Its harder when you keep switching it up and you dress like the locals then dress like a European. Because of the colonial trauma the locals are less likely to fully accept you into their intimate spaces.There many women who look like you in Mombasa that we commonly call waswahili, also, there many women from taita tribe who tend to be as light skinned like you and they are not even mixed and they fit in the community and no one asks where they are from. I am only basing this out of my experience growing up with women who looked that like skin but are 100%Kenyan. I think being consistent with the culture and traditions especially in Mombasa is what gains you that acceptance. I am not trying to invalidate your experiences in anyway, and I appreciate you being honest. Its just a thought based on local experiences to try and explain why when you dress as a local from the typical European clothes people kinda say you are a white woman trying to copy their culture.
You're very Beautiful 🌻, I enjoyed the video, you just got yourself a new sub 💯. Also please do try making an ASMR video (just as an experiment), the sound is crisp, I'm loving it. All Love from South Africa. 🇿🇦
It's weird because in America literally no one would call or consider you white. They would see as black or mixed but never white. If you are mixed with black/African here no one could ever consider you white. It's weird that Africans consider mixed people white because they tend to have lips, noses and curly hair that clearly shows they have African dna. But I also thought a lot of people in coastal east Africa were mixed looking or light skin due to a long history of an Persian and Arab presence.
@1salvaje I'm from the U.S. and no one would call her white unless they are immigrants from Africa. She literally could not identify as white because she has a black parent. Are you even from the U.S. They look at her like she was insane. Trevor Noah even made a joke about declaring himself white in America and the person looked at him like he was crazy. In America white means pure so you cannot be mixed with black and call yourself white. Black is not about purity so she would be pushed into the black category.
Being biracial can be very difficult under the best circumstances. People forget the huge spectrum available in terms of exactly how a person may appear in terms of the skin tone etc. So to biracial people may have a very different experience in this world.
@@ugotnofans4201 People with visible African can never be a white person. I would just say white. No white person would accept her as simply white. She's mixed.
im somali and my kids are half white. my husband is agnostic and i have left islam before meeting him and all of them are healthy and beautiful and look like your skin tone. i came to your channel to learn about these issues my daughter might one day face visiting my family in garissa kenya. I LOVE your channel gurl! some people are so ignorant. but you cant blame them...
Hi! Thank You! Yes, I’m sure your daughter will enjoy her time in Kenya. Being mixed race isn’t easy but it’s easier when parents like yourself seek to know more. Thank you again (:
@William N I am mixed four times over, I have never thought of myself as mixed, I have always known that I am a beautiful, strong, HUMAN BEING, who can't stand weak minded people, constantly looking for pity parties. We are not mind readers, therefore, we have to stop thinking that others are racist towards us.
If u travel the bredth and lengthy of the whole African continent, in Morocco and other north African countries you will b just like any other - just as in Seychelles, Reunion, Cape Town South Africa. U may not b very different from some ethnic groups in Eritea and Ethiopia, parts of Tanzania/Zanzibar. In Zambia, a lot of us are used - so do South Africans, what with their huge white and Indian populations
Sorry, Queen, what do you mean by "mixed race"? The Whiteman by origin is a black person. Africa and Europe should shake off the complex mindset. There are proud light-skinned Blacks out here. Be who you are, a gorgeous ebony Queen. Big hugs
He is probably a black guy who is trying to manipulate her because that's what dark skin men do over there because they don't like thar dark women for some reason
I feel you

@apples874 Mullatos is a negative term. Just like the word N***r. It is Biracial or mixed.
