My boys, much like me, look whiter than white people. I present very much as White, with pale skin and blue eyes. I've always been told I was half Black and half White as that's how the world saw my parents, but it's never quite that simple, is it? Really my father was a mix of African, Ashkenazi Jewish and First Nation and my mom was a mix of European stuff, Scottish, British, Irish, Norwegian, So, I'm about 30-10-10-50 (Black, Jewish, First Nation, Euro-mix). My kids have a Whtite father (with Jewish , German and British Isles ancestry), they're about 15% Black, 20% Ashkenazi Jewish, 5% First Nation and 60% European mix (Birtish Isles, German, Norwegian, Dutch, etc). The only thing they have/had from thier Black heritage that anyone could have really seen was curly hair, but now 2 of them are bald.
