An offensive term used to describe a person who is usually half black and half white. Some say it was first used offensively in the slave days when children were born to slave owner and slave. Derived from the word mule, meaning 1/2 donkey, 1/2 horse. Sometimes defined as white with anything added to it. Again a very offensive term to interracial people.
"Ignorant example"- Hey see that girl there, her mom is black and dad is white, I think that makes her a mulatto.
