So proud of you." shortly after the Same-Sex marriage law passed.  When Oprah asked about the tweet, Raven states that

"That was my way of saying I'm proud of the country. But, I will say that I'm in an amazing, happy relationship with my partner. A woman."

"People in my family, they've taught me to keep my personal life to myself as much as possible. So, I try my best to hold the fence where I can," Raven added. "But I am proud to be who I am and what I am."

"When did Raven know she was interested in other women?
"I knew when I was, like, 12," the entertainer, now 28, recalled. "I was looking at everything." Still, the actress cautioned, "I don't want to be labeled 'gay.' I want to be labeled 'a human who loves humans.'"
"I'm tired of being labeled," she said. "I'm an American. I'm not an African American; I'm an American."
"Oh, girl," a surprised Winfrey said. "Don't set up Twitter on fire...Oh, my lord. What did you just say?"
"I mean, I don't know where my roots go to," Raven explained. "I don't know how far back they go...I don't know what country in Africa I'm from, but I do know that my roots are in Louisiana. I'm an American. And that's a colorless person." Winfrey warned, "You're going to get a lot of flak for saying you're not African American. You know that, right?" The College Road Trip star put her hand up and reiterated, "I don't label myself. I have darker skin. I have a nice, interesting grade of hair. I connect with Caucasian. I connect with Asian. I connect with Black. I connect with Indian. I connect with each culture."
"You are a melting pot in one body," Winfrey said.
"Aren't we all?" Raven asked. "Isn't that what America's supposed to be?"
