As somebody that was mixed race it really made me interested into how that functioned with identity and larger issues of race relations. And that course gave me that information and that one thing got me interested in understanding how race functions. I\u2019m racialized Chicano and oftentimes when I\u2019ve had conversations, I\u2019ll say I\u2019m Filipino, or I\u2019ll say I\u2019m Mexipino and they\u2019re like, \u201cBut you&#8217;re Chicano,\u201d and I\u2019m like, \u201cYeah, but I\u2019m this too.\u201d And the fact that, I think that I have this \u2018drop\u2019 &#8211; but more so the phenotype that comes with that drop, I think that there\u2019s a conversation that I have to push back on sometimes, from people. Sometimes, and in particular within the Latino community, in particular the Mexican or Chicano community, they don\u2019t often think that&#8230;or there\u2019s not so much\u2026there is and there isn\u2019t\u2026this association with Blackness and these connections and intimate relationships with Blackness that I engage in and always felt this engagement with, that I get\u00a0questioned on sometimes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But, I\u2019m going to love who I love &#8211; and I don\u2019t care what anybody says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>CHANDRA CRUDUP<\/strong>: Don\u2019t forget to subscribe to the channel to keep up with the latest One Drop news and other videos.
