I was fine with it, even though I identify as a black woman. People don't realize it hurts my feelings when someone looks at my hair or my eyes, and says, "But you're not actually black. You're black, but you're not black black, because your eyes are green. " I'm like, "What? No, no, I'm definitely black. " Even some of my closest friends have said that.

Growing up, I only saw one thing, and it's great that we're changing the mold and paving our own paths.
