"Usually when someone asks what I am, I say I'm halfrican. You know, my father's black, my mother's white, and when I was younger, to me that was the way it was supposed to be. Father meant black person. Mother meant white person. You know?"
Teenage Diaries producer Joe Richman gives tape recorders to teenagers to document their lives. Jeff Rodgers is 16 and lives with his family in Boston. More and more these days, he finds himself thinking about race and being forced to answer the question "What are you?" This is his radio diary, as originally heard on National Public Radio's All Things Considered.
