Bi-racial babies conceived during WWII to German mothers and African-American GIs were later shipped out of Germany en masse for racial intolerance. They were adopted in African-American homes during the period of segreation in that country which exposed these children to even greater forms of racial rejection - being half white themselves, afterall.
Children who remained in Germany with their white mothers also faced intolerance.
In their thousands these people are seeking to piece together their heritage - they are the subject of a documentary Brown Babies: The Mischlingskinder Story.
Humanity and its gut wrenching stupidity.
