'Transracial' man, born white, says he feels Filipino
2019-09-09
h/t Instapundit
Ja Du is part of a small but growing number of people who call themselves transracial. The term once referred only to someone (or a couple) of a one race adopting a child of another, but now it’s becoming associated with someone born of one race who identifies with another.

Ja Du says he grew up enjoying Filipino food, events and the overall culture.

"Whenever I’m around the music, around the food, I feel like I’m in my own skin," he said.

"I’d watch the History Channel, sometimes for hours ... nothing else intrigued me more but things about Filipino culture."
I sometimes feel Cimmerian (Conan not Kimmérioi)

#6  DarthVader -- avoid the Viking River Tours company. They're not authentic and get VERY upset if you try make them so.

#3  Filipino isn't a race, though. Anyone can be Filipino.

#2  My roots run deeper than the old white man label, but I'm still flexible. I think I'm a caulk-asian.
