YOUR CONCEPT OR RACE IS LUDRICOUS To ip 64 131 you are trying to impose one drop rule myth hyperdecent and other racist thrash from the legacy of Jim Crow into a country like DR Ernesto Sagas is a Dominican professor at CUNY and not even him accepts that thrash You showed yourself You showed a picture of Collin Powell hahaha That s not what I meant by white skin Dominicans Collin Powell a Mulatto btw is FAR from being white skinned I placed the suffix skinned on purpose I meant by that is that even when there is a mixture the amount of European blood is much larger thus giving the person White skin and more European like characteristics Not somebody looking like Simbad Ex link title link title These people passed as White during the colonial period If they have a grandfather looking like Collin Powells then they can not they are white like some Viking let s say But i m wondering how come nobody is calling Bill Clinton a mestizo since he had a Cherokee grandmother hmm Nice North American double standards one drop only applies when it comes to African decent only Anyways I m not here to discuss the screwed up concept of race in other countries but the reality of DR The concensus here among Dominicans is that the 90 African decent is a vague statement people that claim other heritages mixed want to be classified as mixed in the case of DR as Mulattoes because they DO VIEW themselves racially different from the Sammy Sosa type Dominicans platanogenius
