349. well, as Halle tells it...
being that her parent's were of different races, she asked her mom one day if she was bi-racial.

Her mom said "no, you're black."

Halle said she told her this to prepare her for the fact that she would be perceived as a Black woman.

And it appears since, as she has said, people have called her n----- to her face, that her mother was very wise to prepare her for this.
