I was raised in a way not to think of skin color. It helped me in some ways and hindered me in other ways. If I wanted to be Spiderman or something for Halloween, that is what I would be. I didn't care Peter Parker was white. I come from a mixed family though so within my family, it was a non-issue but I have been told "You can't like___" or "You can't be ___" because you aren't white! That is what bothered me most. It was other people and what they would say to me. I got it from white kids and black kids.
