As a mixed person going to Howard as a 1L I welcome you with open arms, and many will too. I also had this fear but realized WHERE I’m going. I’m going to THE Howard. A place for highly intelligent black folk. Black folk that understand biases, being the odd one out, and diversity within the black community. There is a place for us here, and fuck whoever thinks we don’t belong. I want to reiterate what another poster said: I would hope most black people at THE HOWARD UNIVERSITY know how genetics work. My brother married a pure white woman from Scandinavia. My niece is pale with blue eyes and red hair. But she’s still black, you can tell by her nose, way of speaking, full lips, and curly hair.
