I
 HAVE THE RIGHT… 
Not to justify my existence in this world.
Not to keep the races separate within me.
          Not to justify my ethnic legitimacy.
                    Not to be responsible for people’s discomfort with
                        my physical or ethnic ambiguity.

       I
  HAVE THE RIGHT… 
 To identify myself differently than strangers   
     expect me to identify.
                    To identify myself differently than how my parents 
                        identify me.
                         To identify myself differently than my brothers and 
                        sisters.
                    To identify myself differently in different 
                        situations.

       I
 HAVE THE RIGHT… 
 To create a vocabulary to communicate about 
    being multiracial or multiethnic.
                    To change my identity over my lifetime—and more
                       than once.
                    To have loyalties and identification with more
                       than one group of people.
                    To freely choose whom I befriend and love
