Soceity me nothing. You have no idea what you're talking about. There are lots of people with fractional black ancestry, that are living their American dreams. And generally, when a bi-racial person, born of two American parents, has a child with a Caucasian person, the child is Caucasian dominant. I don't know of any exceptions.
It is now well documented that the first women for whom we are all derived, lived in Africa. So, while there were mutations after the early humans marched out of Africa, the vestiges of our African origins, are still present in non-African populations that are closest to Africa. So, much so, that most people bear some trace of our African origins, whether or not it is skin color, nasal variation, lips, hair form, short stature.
When Jordin Sparks won her American Idol title, the majority of the people rooting for her seemed to be mostly Caucasian. And conversely, the black community has accepted Robin Thi2000cke with very wide arms. -

Me!:
what exactly do you mean by the Amercian Dream? you are implying that to live the American Dream one should be considered white does having black ancestory, or having fractional black ancestory mean that one cannot achieve the American dream? or at least they cannot achieve your deffinition of the american dream, which is equated by how white you are??? twisted. -

Actually about 3 of the 10 Ben Harper concerts Ive been to he has said that he has no problem with it but he doesnt smoke the ganja himself he wrote "burn one down" for a friend of his,I own a head store but I pass on grass thats just my personal choice I wish I (could)rip down but I end up having anxiety attacts ever since I lost my best friend in a car accident if i smoke it i dwell on negative, Im jealous of people who can burn one down and then calm down!
I always used to see her as this actress who always p16d0lays it safe with mother roles. Then I saw inland empire and that changed
