edit// the called me that mostly because i wasnt the ghetto kid. i hung out with caucasian kids and was into rock - BASICALLY.
Sorry you went through that.

People who see only color are blind. Don't feel sad to be who you are. And anyone calling you "traitor" just because you hung out with peole they didn't like is just being dumb. Like Anika said, "Allkind" is a good word. It doesn't matter skin or hair or eyes. What matters is your heart and your brain, and those are all the same color if I'm not mistaken.
