You make some good pointsI see non-black people with features like that all the timebut that's very common in the Detroit area, which is pretty diverse despite being,sadly, one of the more segregated areas in the country, due to its history of racial segregation, which only ended just over 50 years ago. Some folks with those features have either black/Latino/Italian/Arabic heritagedepends on who they are and where they're from,basically. -

I never understood why SOME African Americans seem to always be so hung up on race. My parents are from the Caribbean and dark skinned, but I never heard growing up half this half that or the funniest 1/4 this. How the hell is someone three quarters of anything . . . my grandfather was . . . come on. You are what you are move on. Embrace what you are be proud of it and move on, seriously. Almost everyone on the face of the earth is mixed. Why does that have any bearing? Leave this 'one drop' mentality alone.
