Or negroid - whichever you prefer...I prefer brown. "Black" people are really brown - so are "white" people, only a much lighter shade.

anyway, I was trying to remove a mole on my tunny last night and I say some hairs that were tightly curled. I looked around for some more. I mean, how often do you look closely at your chest hair? Anyway, there were more there and some on my arms.

I'll have to do some investigating. I'm what we call a Heinz 57, we have just about every nationality in us so I'm betting I might have some African ancestry.

If you go back far enough, we all came from Africa.

So we are all black :afro:

Does it matter? Most black americans have at least some white ancestors.

This reminds me of that Family Guy episode where Peter Griffin finds out he has a black ancestor, and pretends to be black.

Everyone has African blood in them so we are all related in one way.

I'm Jewish Reform and our DNA will lead back to someone in Africa. There was a documentary on that with trace DNA that links people to different people of different ethics.
