Um no they aren't. Do some research dude! (or better just use your eyes and look at some pictures of 100% black people in Africa) There are very very few "blacks" in America today who are 100% black. The problem is the "one drop rule" where someone with only a little black ancestry is considered "black."

Here I've done the research for you:

The "One Drop" Theory Still Haunts Blacks

Watching Vanessa Williams on TV got me once more thinking about the "One Drop" theory, that if you have one drop of black blood in your ancestry, you are considered to be black, or as it is fashionable for many to say - African-American. This is a stereotype and a disservice to blacks of mixed parentage. I also watched several hours of commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education, which supposedly desegregated our schools. One of the main panels contained some "interesting" blacks. By the way, among the several speakers, all of whom are very accomplished, some referred to "blacks" some to "Negros" and some to "African-Americans" as they discussed the history of race relations.

If you remember, I wrote what I think was a thoughful piece called "Halle Berry, First Half-Black Woman to Win an Academy Award," (www.neto.com/rcr/outbac58.htm May 15, 2002). I looked at Vanessa Williams and wondered from whence she had come. It is very difficult to find anything definitive about her parents, other than that they were both music teachers, that her mother is light skinned and that her dad has apparently a considerable amount of Caucasian blood in his background. It is obvious that Vanessa Williams has a good bit of Caucasian blood somewhere in her background.


because someone is light skinned they arent black? did you know there are diffrent kinds of black people, with diffrent colors and shapes but all considered "black"?

well maybe you would know, if you had actually hanged out with some africans!
i have friends from many places in africa, and ill tell you what i know

people from eritrea have thin pointy noses, not the more typical wide noses, people from congo are tall and strong, people from somalia are usually thin and short, people from zaire are pretty short (even shorter than somalis)
i dont know if thats where pygmes come from, but this one guy i knew from zaire would get hazed by the other africans, they used to call him a pygme!

and all those people are dark skinned, much darker than the typical white person, but who is to decide what is black and what is not?

for the record if i ever saw a completly white or black person id scream my longues out! people arent really either, its more a range of pink (im thinking of white alcoholic males in their 50s) to dark brown!


dark colors are the dominant ones as im sure you knew, so the offspring of a white person and black person looks more like the black parent and since people need to label people, they are considered black

i dont have the data, but if you look into it, im sure over 80% of american blacks dont have any white blood in them

well that is, in their most recent 5-10 generations, if you wanna go further back than that you will find that no one is pure blood anything, you can probably track it down to that first race of early humans back in africa

so that is totally irrelevant

also i dont understand why classifying someone as black dose them a disservice, it is stoopid moronic idiot racists with crap for brains that make blacks lives hard, and trust me, they dont go by other peoples label, they decide for themselves who is black and who isnt!


besides, i saw vanessas parents on a talk show, they showed pictures of her when she was a kid, her with the parents etc

they looked very dark skinned to me
 
Concerning the topics of this thread, then:
- middle-skin-toned people, ie. Arabs, Koreans look sexiest. That and redheads. So stop the whole rascism debate.

- I wouldn't want to date a celebrity because they're idiotic and narcissistic beyond all sanity. I'd certainly shag a few though, provided they wore make-up.

What the hell does it matter to anyone if Vanessa Williams has some Caucasoid blood in her veins?

Go back far enough, and my ancestors presumably were dark-skinned.

Even if they were, you probably couldn't tell for the facial and body hair. ;)
