Discussions on the heredity of phenotype, often focus upon whether Black parents can have a white child. More precisely, whether
a single parent who self-identifies as a member of the U.S. Black endogamous group can have a child who looks so White (has such a European phenotype) that he or she has little choice in adulthood but to either self-identify as White (like Carol Channing) or to evade the question altogether (like Vin Diesel). The following collection of photos may make this clearer:
Charles Byrd and his mother (and no, none of these people are adopted)
Eartha Kitt and her Daughter/ Granddaughter
Soledad O'Brien with mother
Donna Summers and Her Daughter
Rae Dawn Chong with her daughter
The Hododgson Twins
Victoria Rowell and her daughter/son
Lynn Whitfield and daughter
Persia White and her daughter Mecca
Carol Channing's father was black
Anthony Ervin. Despite his fair appearance, he has identified himself as
"The first African-American man" to make the U.S. Olympic Swimming team. He has a black father and white mother.
Actor
Wentworth Miller. Black father, white mother.
Randy Johnson. This man is 1/4th African American!
Natasha Hamilton from Atomic Kitten (UK Girlband) is half black (either half or 1/4th) - Anyway, everyone always assumed she was white, and I knew she was mixed, but none of my friends black or white believed me until she actually said it herself, lol.
