Whitney Meyer, the 25-year-old mother of biracial twins born in Quincy, Illinois, calls her newborns “miracle babies” who show the world “why racism shouldn’t exist.”
“They are different colors, but sisters by blood,” Meyer tells People. “One is light and one is mixed, but we love them the same.”
Meyer is Caucasian and her boyfriend (the father of the twins), Tomas Dean, is African-American. Nine-month-old Kalani inherited her mother’s lighter complexion and blue eyes, while fraternal twin sister Jarani got her father’s darker complexion.
