I am a wife(10yrs)and mother of two. I have 2 bachelors degrees and currently work at home. I grew up in LA, in an inter-racial neighborhood. I am in a W/W relationship, but, before I maried I was in two serious relationships with two different black men. It was not race or culture that broke us up. Just differences in where we were going, not from whence we came.

I am a 30-year-old black woman; married to a Jewish man; both native New Yorkers; pregnant with our first child. Naturally we are drawn to true stories of inter/biracial families and we couldn't wait to see An American Love Story, which we hope will give us some insight to what our biracial child/ren might face and what we need to prepare our family for.

I'm not necessarily looking for answers, just good discussions. If in the process answers come, then all the better.
