I don't classify them by their skin color and it has been proved that blood is blood regardless of the skin color of the body the blood came from. I wasn't being accusatory. *I was just stating, historically, if you had one drop of black blood, you were considered black. *The remnants of Jim Crow is still alive and well in this country. With advances in DNA testing, a lot of people are getting a big surprise. An awful lot of white people whose families have been in the US for many generations are finding out they have blood relatives who are decidedly not caucasian. My great grand parents were american indian, french, english, irish and german. so...... So for the most caucasion with a great-grand father that was american indian, so I guess I'm Indian if the one-drop rule applies. |
