Halle Berry My Baby Is Black
February 8. 2011
Halle Berry
Mixed race actress, Halle Berry, did an interview with
Ebony Magazine, where she stated she views her biracial daughter, Nahla
Aubry, as black. The Judiciary Report does as well. Nahla has brown skin
and curly hair.
Yes, Nahla is clearly mixed, but she is also black. It's
not a matter of choosing sides or preferring one color over the other, but
largely due to the "one drop" rule that has been present in
America for generations ("one drop" of black blood makes one
black).

Some may dislike the aforementioned statements, but let's
be honest here, society does place color labels on people. If it were up to
me, no such labels would exist and we would all just be people. But that's
not the world we live in.
Case in point, applications and forms in a number of areas
of education, commerce and government census, inquire about race. This is
fact. And let's not forget, to some people, race does matter. Racism still
exists in our world and black people often feel the full brunt of
it.

The Judiciary Report believes people should not be treated
differently, because of their race and color. Everyone deserves a chance to
be happy. Everyone deserves a chance to do well and excel in life.
Talent or academic qualification is the only thing that
should come into play when deciding who is best for a job. In choosing a
friend or spouse, decency and love, respectively, are the only things that
should come into play. True love knows no color.
