Roshon 05/29/18 2:47:04 PM #1:	I have (Im biracial, black/white) and its absolutely dehumanizing and embarrassing. Basically I was on a forum with a lot of white gays and they chose to target me, make me the odd one out. They would treat me so mean and went so far. They started calling me a monkey and it caught on and everytime I logged in they would call me it. So fellow black people, have you ever been called a monkey as well by some vile white people? It feels like thats the go-to when they want to disparage us. <cite>Roshon posted [p:902187901] in Black peop...
