Best Answer

Mulatto "Muladi", from Arabic meaning white mixed with Moor. in the United States a formerly disparaging and now merely insensitive and unnecessary term for a person of mixed race. Insensitive in the USA but not throughout the Americas. In Latin America it is not a disparaging term.

The USA has major issues with acknowledging biracial identity. President Obama is regarded to as black in the USA- yet other countries respect his mother's white Kansan heritage and call him biracial not black. The irony is that it is his technically white, not Kenyan upbringing, not African American upbringing that has made him mainstream.

He was raised by his mother's parents.
