So this chick says she's "100% Italian"??

[Brehnamedwavey]

Tbh I just wanna see some Italian chicks.

u damn right where they at

 

[Tommy Knocks]

Do you have any idea what you're reading LOL. It says nothing about the Italian population having low Middle Eastern admixture, only the Jewish population. It also has graphs showing low levels of West African descent, which is not what I'm debating.

That's what I was debating, you jumped into my conversation. I was saying they were not part black.

as for middle eastern. again. its not as high as you think

I can keep posting links for days because its been debunked. I already said MANY have middle eastern blood, very faint admixtures, but that is liken to east africans and yemans. who have the same close proximity to the arabs like the italians.of course they'll have admixtures. trying to link them to DR is absurd. DR are recent mixtures who are actually biracials to quadaroons. that's not considered an admixture. Admixtures = centuries of mixing, which the south italians of course had, but northern italians and central italians are closer to the french. consider the fact that the majority of the country don't reside in the south.

Now i gotta search high & low for a full blooded italian????? You nikkas are killing me out here

 

[Jazzy B.]

If u went to southern italy no one there would claim black they'd claim italian...they're more about repping nationality there only in America are people so obsessed with what shade is what. And "italian" aint a race anyway

Pretty much this, I know an Asian guy(Pakistani) who looks "white" and could easily pass as "white", try telling him that he's "white" , guy would go mad and flip. He views himself as a "Pakistani" first and foremost. Y'all nikkas gotta realise that there are people who classify themselves through nationality instead of Race and skin colour . @aRoMaN21

Can I show you this though?

Blacks in Greece and Rome
Blacks in Greece and Rome
When some people learn that the Greeks and Romans had a high regard for black intelligence and morality they assume it was because they had little contact with black people. Greeks and Romans not only had contact with blacks from Africa, but they had contact with their black neighbors. Frank Snowden discovered that, "The exact number of Ethiopians who entered the Greco-Roman world as a result of varied military, diplomatic, and commercial activity is difficult to determine, but all the evidence suggests a sizable Ethiopian element, especially in the population of the Roman world….The black population in Greece and Italy was larger than has been generally realized."1

In the late 4th century AD Church fathers Sophronius and St. Jerome even refereed to Colchis as a, "second Ethiopia," because of its large black population. 2 Two accounts in the 4th century BC, one by Hanno and another by Palaephatus, tell of the city of Cerne, located just outside the Pillars of Hercules, which was inhabited by Ethiopians. 3 Cerne is described as a market town where the Carthaginians and Ethiopians traded elephant tusks and hides, wine, perfume, Egyptian stones, Athenian pottery, and skins of deer, lions, and leopards. 4 The sizable population of blacks in ancient Rome is demonstrated by the fact that on one occasion, in 61BC, Nero allowed only blacks into the theater to watch one hundred Ethiopian huntsmen perform. 5

Following the construction of the city of Alexandria many more blacks traveled to the Greco-Roman world--that is evident by the growing numbers of Negro statues at the seaports of Rome and Greece. Blacks often immigrated permanently. Snowden wrote, "whoever laid down arms after having fought only yesterday against Rome was welcome, whoever came to Rome was there, no one inquired after origins--all those with talent, industry, and good fortune had chances to forge ahead." 6

Blacks--like any other immigrants--found careers as craftsmen, metalworkers, carpenters, entrepreneurs, soldiers, government officials, politicians, actors, dancers, jugglers, boxers, acrobats, animal tamers, gladiators, charioteers, bath attendants, bootblacks, cooks, courtesans, divers, laborers, and lamp-bearers. 7 "Ethiopians," Richard Poe tells us, "were just as likely to be philosophers, priests, athletes, warriors, or merchants in the Roman world as they were servants." 8 As discussed before, the Isiac religion from Nubia-Meroe spread throughout the Greek and Roman world. Many of the high priests in that religion, as shown by the art, were black. 9

According to some accounts Aesop was Ethiopian, and Terrence, the famous Roman writer and former slave, was described as having dark and black skin. 10 A Nubian King, during the reign of Philadelphus, received a Greek education and studied philosophy. 11 Odysseus's herald, Eurybates, was described as having black skin and woolly hair. 12 On several occasions, landowners mentioned on the Pylos tablets had the name Aithiops (meaning black), although this may have been just a common Greek name of the time.

The Black population in Greece and Rome created regular contact between Blacks, Italians, and Greeks. The contact did not lead to a disdain for Black people, as many white supremacists would wish; rather it lead to a very high regard for the intelligence and piety of blacks.

A significant population would prolly account for a max of 1% of all people in Rome and Greece, that doesn't mean jack shyt for genetics. He was talkin about west africans and more of an occupying mass raping army type situation.

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

This is reality show star Melissa Gordo. According to her, she's always mistaken for being Black biracial, but she has no Black in her..she's all Italiano. And I'm like..um, does she know the history of Italy?.

Italian is a nationality not a race

 

[Robo Squirrel]

[mrken12]

Italians are some of the most racist people but yet they have a lot of African ancestry. Weird how that works.

he made the blatant statement that AFRICANS were not in ITALY.
and it isnt 1%. do some reading.
stop hatemongering in your racial way.

 

[aRoMaN21]

Italian is a nationality not a race

Race is overrated and dumb. Most southern italians arent even pale. theyre dark olive or light olive. they turn light brown in the sun
