A TRAVELLER has revealed the questions she often gets asked because she is mixed race.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The young woman has taken to TikTok to explain what it is like growing up in her community.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jainaba, who goes by the name of jennysfooddiary on TikTok, has gone viral after sharing videos which give an insight into her life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In one video, she answered a question which read: \u201cAs a mixed race person was it difficult with being accepted on your mothers side.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

To which Jainaba replied: \u201cI can't say it was difficult being accepted into my mum's side of the family, cause my mum's side of the family is the only family that I have a name.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd me and my sister just got treated the same as all the other children.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only difference is that I went to live with my granny and grandad, um, when I was nine years old and my little sister came along with me.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo rather than being treated like grandchildren, me and Jamelia were treated like my granny and grandad's babies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhich wasn't a bad thing at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was never really a big thing growing up like me and my little sister being. Being half black.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was never like, of course we knew, not stupid, but like it was never a big thing.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike, people never treat me any different for it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf anything, my family and the people that I've grown up around root me for absolutely everybody else in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause I grew up thinking that I was the best thing in sliced bread.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause anytime my mama took me anywhere when I was a little girl, everybody always used to tell me how pretty I was and how nice my hair was and how nice my skin was.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd even when I got a bit older, start pulling around with me Granny and grandad.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat's all that ever got said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got bullied a bit for being fat, but like nothing Like, no badness, really.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd as far as Gypsy, in travelling people that I'm not related to, I've never really had a problem with anyone either, because I always used to pull up and down in the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cSame places, and I'd always just hang around with the same people and I go up and down with the same people, you know what I mean?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only people that really get a little bit nasty, nothing like that's gonna upset me, though, is like, why do people.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople that decided, woke up one day that they wanted to be Gypsy and travellers, but other than that, it's like it's all right.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know it seems like on social media I get a lot of hate for being black, but that's the only place that is the hate.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt's not out there in the world, if you know what I mean.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot from Gypsy, travelling people, anybody, me in my family.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video has attracted thousands of likes with many rushing to the comments section to share their thoughts.<\/p>\n

One wrote: \u201cYou should be very very proud my love. I\u2019ve got two girls with mixed race boys. I could never ask for anything better.\u201d<\/p>\n
