Just a thought

Sam Smith - I find it interesting that we as a culture ignore multiple ethnicity. For example, 17% of new marriages are bi-ethnic but you don't hear anything about it and Harris and Obama are both identified as black despite their mixed heritage. Obama even spent more time at Harvard Law than he did with a black father. If we are more accurate in describing the complexity of ethnic backgrounds, it would help diffuse false, simplistic conclusions.
