himself as Black, ever complain about...? the countless *biracials* who play children of two Black parents on Black sitcoms throughout Television history? Why bring up the topic now?

I have NEVER EVER heard a White person who an opinion on this topic. And even if they (or you) have had an opinion on it, it has never been heard.

So Why not?

What? What rappers are You talking about?
 
I am White. And I do not complain about Barack Obama referring to himself as Black. What bothers me is that some Blacks do not refer to Obama as Black, and yet they are only too willing to own Tiger Woods as Black, even though he has repeatedly said he is not Black.

Race is not a biological fact, and has no genetic rules which determine our perceptions. Race is a social construct, and we can choose to make a big deal of it, or to let everyone be people and get on with more important issues.
