Hello there everyone, I happened on an old thread for mixed race familes that seems to have started in 2007. It was revived in 2008, and i'm wondering if anyone from that original thread is still reading postings on mumsnet?
Or if you are reading this and don't know any other mums with mised race families, it would be good to meet up.
I'm based in-between rusholme, moss side and fallowfield. Would love to meet other mums.
I'm black, my dh is white and our boys are 22mths and 4mths.
Hope to hear from you soon. I'm going to join facebook as that seems to be where everyone I know is nowadays!
love & light x

I feel the same as you Sunflower, I would love to meet other mum's in my area (Croydon)who have mixed race families, I haven't seen any groups and as I have no immediate family (my parents were West Indian) my LO will not come into any direct contact with anyone but me from my culture.
Have you found any groups on Facebook?

Hi,
I am very interested in this as my mixed race children are suffering from the racial gap in this society. Where are you based? I can also help in the organisation of events.
I have no idea if I was on the original thread or not, (memory of a goldfish!) but I am white married to an Indian hubby and we have twin boys. I'd love to chat to others in smiliar situations.
