I am a mother of two bi-racial kids (their father is black, I am white). When filling out the forms for school re: race I always mark ‘bi-racial’. What amazes me year after year when filling out the same forms at the beginning of the school year, the school system has already marked ‘white’. No matter how many times I correct what they’ve marked, ‘white’ is marked the following year. How is it that we try to allow are kids to be self-confident and assured of who they are when the school system doesn’t or won’t do the same? I suppose they change it to fit whatever category will help the school system get as much money for each student as they can.
