Hi Steven,<\/p>\n
This note is a grateful note: just wanted to say thanks for collating such broad, broad data on such a contested subject. Mixed-race is a tough one, hey? It’s wonderful that you made a site which brought all those opinions, past and present, onto a page which I can scroll down and read to my heart’s content (or heart’s discontent, at times, since often the experiences that are told on your site aren’t happy ones at all. But let’s hope for the future.)<\/p>\n
I’m a person who identifies as mixed-race. My father is Cape Coloured<\/a> and my mother was born in Australia to Dutch parents. They met here, in Melbourne<\/a>.<\/p>\n Thank you for letting me hear the other voices out there; some I can relate to, some I can’t, but all of them make me grateful that we can, at least, have the conversation.<\/p>\n Kindest regards,<\/p>\n Emma Jacobus 2013-01-17 Hi Steven, This note is a grateful note: just wanted to say thanks for collating such broad, broad data on such a contested subject.
