L&SS-IS

I hate to hear people saying things like, "Two siblings, one white and one black twin!"

They're both bi-racial people! One is not all black!!!! And, the other one just has the appearance of being all white. It's not logical to think that the so-called white baby didn't get any negro genes. Now is it?

There are plenty of Caucasian people who do have negro DNA, and thanks to companies such as 23andMe and Ancestry.com, they are finding this wonderful truth out.

Just because a person looks to be one race, doesn't make that perception a fact!

Listen, I'm sorry if I appear angry to you right now; I assure you, I'm not. It's just that these stories remind me of my confused childhood surrounding my geneology. You see, I was told, as I was growing up, that I was black. Period. Since I was an inquisitive child who asked endless questions, I asked one question insistently all the time, "If I'm black, why is my skin color brown?" One day I took a chance and asked a Latino couple, who attended the same church as me, this very question only to be told rather smugly and inappropriately, "That's because your race is black!" I never asked that question to anyone again after that day.

Years later, I searched for the truth after one day, at a family get-together, some family members told me that I looked like I was from another country. That was the last straw for me because people told me that all of my life. I just couldn't stand hearing this any longer.  So, I began my search for ancestors and uncovered answers to many unanswered questions I had as a child. By researching on the net and asking older family members for pertinent information, I found my great great grandmother and father and my great grandmother and father, a very difficult task for Americans of African descent like me to accomplish because the slave trade wiped out so many of our older ancestors.

​I used ancestry.com and found out that I am indeed not just negro. I am not going into detail here about those results because that's not the point that I am trying to make in this commentary. 

I am simply trying to get people to understand that people are all various shades of brown (except many albinos) my Caucasian Black History Teacher told me, and I believed him. Years later, I researched what he told me.

What I found out is that every human, except many albinos, has melanin/pigment.

  1. a dark brown to black pigment occurring in the hair, skin, and iris of the eye in people and animals. It is responsible for tanning of skin exposed to sunlight.

Conclusion:

A person's true so-called 'race' or 'race mixture' will show up in his or her DNA. And, what that DNA will reveal is just how much melanin one has - The irony of this info is that the more melanin you have, the closer related and the more you will be considered to be of the 'negroid race' (Not dark skin Asians) even if you are of mixed race. If you don't believe me, google it. You know what, I'll fetch that info for you right now... Paler Shades of Black a research institute. Also, read the informative research on melanin from a medical website: 

The children pictured in this story, and in the collage above, are all mixed race. Period.
