Native american as far as I know

My mom has an old black and white photo of my great great great (I don't know how many greats) grandmother. She looks like a real indian with long gray and black hair. Wish I could've met her.

If she was dark skin with nappy hair you wouldn't wanna meet that bytch :mjpls:

Who knew Cherokees and blacks got down like that

Most are actually mixed with Whites.

The whole Cherokee thing is a big myth most black people tell themselves. Majority didn't actually mix with Blacks like that.

:why: sorry, most of us are mixed with the white man...

My granddaddy's daddy was full blooded Italian and liked him some sistas apparently because he married my great-grandmother. My granddaddy, their son, looked like Smokey Robinson. He married my grandmother, who was half black/half some kind of indian. I never bothered to ask my grandmother which one. They had my father.


So because of that, when my hair grows out, it looks like a white persons but, I'm as black as Idris Elba. So I feel like a c00n :ld: saying I'm anything but, black but, people ask me everytime i let my hair grow out if I'm Dominican, from the Islands, Indian or whatever. I always say I'm black tho. I identify as black :whoa: I'm black, I went to a black college, no c00ning, I'm proud over here :blessed:

I've had my DNA test for ancestry done so I know exactly what I am:

81% West African (Yoruba)
17% Caucasion (English)
2% Native American

Yeah fukk that DNA testing shyt. After a geneticist told me himself that DNA testing to prove your ancestry is absolute bullshyt and then researching the shyt myself, I'd rather just do the hardwork and dig myself by asking elders and searching records.

But for me....just a nikka with a shytload of melanin.
