PERSONAL ATTACK I was actually going to adress your points one by one but as you have made a personal attack on me by implying i support the one drop rule i wo nt even bother I never once said i supported the one drop rule i was simply refuting your suggestion the reason non hispanic white Americans have African ancestry is because of an official policy of hyperdescent as you falsey implied but because blacks circumvented the one drop rule and passed for white i used the term black and passed in the context of American history and not an expression of my own point of view If i belived in the one drop i would not have said most of the descendants of black slaves in the U S are white i would have said most of the descendants of black slaves in the U S are black which i did not say I actually new you were going to insult me somewhere down the line because your arguments make no sense and when people make arguments they know deep down are false they normally resort to personal attacks all of the arugments you use to underplay or deny hyperdescent whiteining could be used to underplay or deny the one drop rule but you only try and underplay and deny hyperdescent whitening i wonder why that is The fact you have resorted to a personal slur on me by implying that i belive in the one drop rule when i have said no such thing and not address many of my points i have made demonstrates you have no counter argument and the fact you ignored whitening further illustrates this Genetic admixture graphs based on Bertoni et al Admixture in Hispanics Distribution of Ancestral Population Contributions in the United States Human Biology Volume 75 Number 1 February 2003 pp 1 11 Concude hisapanics in the U S are between 34 67 yet most Hispanics in the U S self ID as white Lets just say for arugments sake the most white Hispanics in that study self ID as white 51 68 European unless your going to argue that Europeans arrived in Latin America 51 68 European you would have to accept that Hisapnics are defining themselves by hyperdescent and this is the only reason to explain the disparity between non hispanic white Americans who are 90 European and non hispnics white Americans who are much less European 51 67 European If not due to hyperdescent whitening how else do you explain U S white hispanics haveing the most lowest European ancestry of any self defined white group The Law of Gracias al Sacar was not the Limpieza de sangre the term castizo predates the 18th Century The Gracias al Sacar was a law which came into being in much of latin America in the 18th Century and it allowed acknowledged mulattoes and mestizos to become white you really need to learn history is about the facts SamEV not what you distort and call fact The way in which you constantly imply that hyperdescdent is practiced in equal measure in the U S and Latin America is another distortion of history its almost as if your trying to grant hyperdescent legitimacy by falsey implying hyperdescent was as widespread in the U S as it was and still is in Latin America which is not true Quotations from the anthropologist Peter Wade viceroy of new granada Dr Carlos Moore Edward E Telles and Clare Ribando Seelke a specialist in Latin American Affairs confirm that some blacks class themselves as mulattoes and that some mulattoes class themslves as white you think this is of no importance on a page where the primary subject is mulattoes You free to deny or underplay hyperdescent your free to tell yourself the lie that people arrived from Europe to Latin America 68 or lower European depsite the fact no European country has such a low level of European ancestry The truth is White Hisapainics have much lower levels of European ancestry in the case of U S Hispanics 68 or lower because they are defining themselves by hyperdescent and are accepting mixed race people as white and this is why they have such low levels of European ancestry the classification of mixed race people as white hyperdescent is an intergral part of mullato history and is linked to the low levels of white ancestry many white Hispanics have The total abscence of hyperdescent which meant many mulattoes passed as white and the law Gracias al Sacar an which aloud mulattoes to become leagly white in a page which primary subject is mulattoes presents a false and biased version of history because it leaves one with the false imppression all mulattoes were classed as mullaotes when many were classed as white and this is linked to the fact that most of todays white Latin Americas are of mixed race descent There is no point going on with this discussion you will not address any of my main points you only try and avoid th
