Every time Ann Curry interviews Brad Pitt, an orphan in Africa dies. And I vomit all over the place.

Almost all black people are multiracial to some degree, whether it is acknowledged or not.

That wide-eyed reporting of hers reminds of reports for teenzines in the ‘70s.

For those who don’t know the context, she’s talking about a book called “Blended Nation”, which looks really interesting. Being honest, it took me a while to get used to people saying he’s a black president. Sure, a lot of people are “multiracial” to some degree, but he really did grow up with a white family. I like that to be acknowledged from time to time because it’s just part of who he is. Ann is multiracial so she should be able to acknowledge that as well.
