Its strange how people have this idea of what a race should look like.
Perhaps she has some mixed ancestry, there's really no such thing as a pure race in the world, it's an absurd concept used for politics. But I must point out that many Africans have such eyes, this is where they came from in the first place. -

Let's take this from a scientific perspective.
First off, scientists have oonfirmed that all modern humans received their start in Africa.
Second, the "races" were not seperated long enough to become seperate species. So there is, in fact, no such thing as "race", only ethnic groups. In nature, when two species that should not mix produce offspring, the offspring is usually sterile. Think of it as nature's way of saying "no." But further proof that there are no "races" is that humans of any ethnic background can mate and produce viable (nonsterile) offspring.
And finally, since all humans are the same "race," that means they share the same gene pool. Only a handful of genes are responsible for the variations in skin hues, hair textures and etc. So if Golden Brooks or any other Black person has "Asian" features, it shouldn't come as a surprise. We've all got the same genes and there's no telling which ones will be expressed in the phenotype at the moment of conception. Let's not even get into genetic mutations!
Sorry to sound so scientific, but we need to look at the facts, not hearsay. We've all got common roots and the exact same genes. So we shouldn't be surprised when a white person has "Black" features, or a Black person has "Asian" eyes. Anyone could have these features. -

Well if youi wanna get technical asians came out of Africa too, DNA scientist could traist some asians back to African Tribes, She has some asians in her and asians have some blk in them if thats how you wanna put it I guess. The stereotype is that only blks have wide noses which is so untrue but look at how many asians have wide noses, they call asians yellow but call light skin blks high yellow.

Absolutely, I believe the Shang Dynasty (first dynasty)was started by Africans. Here is some literature folks:
