Right. In terms of your nationality, you are Jamaican. But ethnically, unless you have subjected yourself to genealogical tests in order to confirm your ancestry, there is no way you could know what you truly are. Most of the slaves who were transplanted to Jamaica were from Ghana (West African descent), members of the Akan/Ashanti people.

Some black folks not all of them my love, I want to stay brown just the way I am and Mixed race are considered black in white races proof is OBAMA he's reffered to the first black president not the first white president or mixed race, just wanted to clear it up, We all are originally from Africa

Personally I belive that we should all just concentrate on being apart of the human race and leaving all this racial pride and racism behind, I mean look all it does is segregate and create hate, it creates superiority issues.

Your aesthetic give black, but as with most black people you can tell that there's somthin' else goin' on up in us. Some more noticible than others, So what I SAY is that you're a black man with a diverse background, 'cause truly that's what it is. -lolz

SO IM GUESSING UR OTHER RACES are:
Latino
Native American and
White......Like Most Black People in America nehow.
The only issue I had with the identifying races video is when you spoke about being part white and you stroked your hair and asked, "Can't you tell?". I love your vids Todd but you kinda played into the whole "good and bad hair" stereotype that mixed people sometimes do. I have no problem with you wanting to identify your heritage. Just try not to fall into the stereotypes.

I can totally see you viewing me doing that a certain, way but my whole lifethe number one question because yes my skin is light, people bypassed that and assumed i was mixed from my hair, which is why i did that, every where i go, people ask me am i mixed because of my hair, a person that looks black with silky soft hair to them was i guess curious to them, but it is a sterotype that i just realized

I dont really think it is a stereotype, I think people are just curious with knowing my race, so that is the main question I have been asked since I could talk... but iam sorry if it came off that way....

This comment has received too many negative votes show
LMAO! How many of those "other races" are claiming you? Your grandmother being "Creole" don't count as you being mixed or biracial, sweety. Also, being "Creole" ain't nothing to brag about. That means your ancestors were raped by Massa!
