The term “mixed” is used to refer to a person of multi-ethnic origin. “Mixed” is commonly used to refer to bi-racial or tri-racial people; however, a mixed person is really just anyone with more than 2 races in their ethnic background (e.g. African, Asian, European, Indigenous American, Indigenous Australian, and/or Pacific Islander etc.)
“Bro guess what?! I just got my DNA results from 23andMe. I thought I was just Saudi Arabian but it turns out I’m kind of mixed: 70% Middle Eastern, 15% European, 10% African, and 5% Asian!”
“5% Asian? Bro what if your ancestors knew my ancestors in China a long time ago?!”
“Brooo!!!”

“You don’t look mixed because you don’t have light skin, light eyes, or light-colored hair...and your hair is too curly.”
“Actually, my biological father is Afro-Caribbean and my biological mother is Indo-Fijian. Being mixed doesn’t mean a person has to have light-colored features or look partly European.”
————————
“Oh my god your kids are so cute, I love mixed babies! I would marry outside my race too so I can have exotic bi-racial kids! They’ll have perfect hair, pretty eyes, and the best skin color...I wish I was bi-racial so I could be hot AND help to end racism!”
“Okay, no. First of all, don’t objectify mixed children like that. Secondly, Bi-racial people are still human beings, not some ethnic fetish or a racial fantasy.”

People who are two races or more. Usually depicted as tan with curly hair and blue eyes. However, they can be as black as an African or as light as a European. Also known as biracial.

When referring to an individual, a mixed person is someone who was born with two or more ethnicities.
I am mixed with Irish and Welsh.
We are a diverse school. This year's prom queen was mixed with Nigerian and Armenian.

1. The term "Mixed" refers to someone born of interracial parents.
The term is incorrectly used to describe "Biracial". If you are mixed, you are biracial but being biracial doesn't necessarily make you mixed. Having a mixed parent(s) also doesn't make you mixed. Much like the majestic "Liger". Two liger cannot have a child. Only a lion and a tiger can make a liger.
Important: Due to the fact that Latino/Spanish is considered white in sociology; three races: White, Black, Asian, being Latino and Black makes you mixed. Welcome to the club!
