I was about to reply with something similar. I wonder if he was promoted or received assistance in some form if he didn’t identify as such.

The Prosecutor made a point of highlighting the fact that he was "Biracial".

***Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne, who is biracial but identifies as black***

Anyone notice that when he was reading the report he was “sweating like a (never mind) at an election”?
