"To be considered black in the United States not even half of one's ancestry must be African black. But will one-fourth do, or one-eighth, or less? The nation's answer to the question 'Who is black?" has long been that a black is any person with any known African black ancestry."

I have black in me. Like, literly a drop in a big bucket. Not enough to even show any signs. I just know because I've done a family tree. Anyway, I dont consider myself to be black.
What does make me made is that these boys that "act black" aren't, and they run around saying the "n" word and if someone else calls them that they get offended, or, if someone calls the white they get offended. Yeah, tdhat "n" word bothers me becuse I just don't like it. Grr. |
