Put another way, a half white, half black child is rejected from being seen as a white child by whites, while that same child is almost always accepted as being seen as a black child by blacks (even though half white).

Viewed by most as a white guy?
I think it mostly an appearance thing. If a person looks like a black guy, he's considered a black guy. If a person looks like a white guy, he's considered a white guy.
I know, that's adults. But I think it's the same for kids. If a person sees a kid that looks like a black kid (without the parents around), he's considered a black kid, and vice versa. If the mixed race kid is seen with both parents present, he's considered a mixed kid.
