This is my favorite mixed race actress:
Thandie Newton...and she doesn't whine about it either to my knowledge.

Happy Easter to you too!

Thandie Newton is cute. I think that identity politics plays a lot into what roles people get. Many are really insistent on saying their black, so they get 'black'roles. Jennifer Beals gets a lot of white and biracial female roles, and so Vin Diesel and Keanu Reeves. I guess this nothing compared to Tiger Woods who had to have a press conference over his identity.
