mulatto. Nick for a person of mixed heritage..namely of black and white...can be construed as a racist term but its not nearly as racist as the insecure fuckheads who try to force people of mixed heritage to identify as one or the other...as if our society is really that black and white, so to speak. person with European and African ancestry. Is not just having  one white parent and another black like some ignorant idiots have said here. Mulatto does not derive from  Mule. The word derrives from Muladi, which is from Arabic  Muwaladeen, which means white mixed with Moor.
