I say potato. You say po-tah-toe. I prefer "mixed race." He likes "mulatto." This week, I sat down with singer SAFE to talk semantics. Both of us have black fathers and Sephardic Jewish mothers, but that doesn't mean we see eye-to-eye. Tune in to find out:
  • why he likes the word "mulatto,"
  • why I hate it, and
  • how being descended from slaves shaped our identities.

Mulatto means mule, its a word created by the paraswhite man. We are Hestanfells. If anyone of my race wants to be part of something great and are sick of wandering between black and white supremacy wich both hates you! then join with me !
