Would you ever tell a half-black person that they’re not black?

My dad’s from the Philippines, my mom’s from New York. I’m from a world where race and ethnicity aren’t colors or locations, or even the cultures in which someone was raised; they’re how a person feels. They are the backgrounds in which an individual identifies based on their own personal history. I might have blonde hair, blue eyes, and a slight southern drawl, but maganda ako talaga.
