eidt: also I think my previous reply that you quoted answers your question indirectly. I self-identify more with being multi-racial than I do with being black or white.
edit2: all that being said, I probably wouldnt take issue with someone using "half black". It has more of an underlying social implication compared to the more or less overt offensiveness that "mulatto" carries.
