Well, my mom is white and my father is mulatto, but my skin (and my sibilings', specially my brother) is really light. So I get a little confuse about "what" I am, you know what I mean?

When people call someone "white" it refers to the race Caucasian not skin color, you are 1/2 of what both of your parent are. Okay as for me my mom is 1/2 Ute and 1/2 Shoshone, and my father is Irish so that makes me 1/4 Ute, 1/4 Shoshone and 1/2 Irish.

I would agree with offkey. At any rate, it doesn't really matter does it? Be proud of your rich heritage
