  • Now if the "Out of Africa" is taken to be an indisputable truth, then don't all of us - those whose ancestors came out of Africa - Europeans, Mixed race, Asians, Latinos, etc...and all other admixtures and races - have a drop of "black" in us? Interestingly, just the other day, I saw an indian guy of dark skin on the subway but his skin looks like it's in the midst of changing colour from dark complexion to white...but I know of course, this is a skin disease.

  • @JonathanStalberg It sucks to be you...

  • Why are whites so intimidated by having a little of black ancestry. Most of them look beautiful for having black in them really. Nice curly thick hair, full lips, beautiful skin tones that are not as white as the average white person.

  • There is a secrecy about MARILYN MONROE's dad...... very mysterious.

  • White gentic destruction

  • @APGifts Thank you! Nicely put

  • @APGifts Okay well why are people still talking about it today then? huh? And mentioning it? You are telling me to go and pick up a book when I am in a gifted program in high school right now struggling everyday with homework, haha, that's funny. Apprently...I do know history...just not all of it obviously...because nobody knows everything about the world. Anyways I don't need to continue arguing. I'm done. And U.S history is not the only history in the world, there is World History so anyways

  • @afrykabarbie Who said I was black? Keep talking, I rest my case,

  • @APGifts, for some, yes, for others, no. It is complex, and many see it differently.

  • @SoulfulLova

    And for the record ... Einstein ... the 'One Drop Rule' was BANNED in the U.S. in 1967; the 'Paper Bag Test' is an Urban Myth; AND the U.S. had a Multiracial Box RETURNED to the government forms in 2000 (a full year before the UK even added a Multiracial box at all !!!
