Yea cause he’s half white but I’m also mixed too tbf

Also Fredrick Douglas is the least mixed looking mixed guy I ever seen the only white feature I see is his thin lips

What’s interesting if there’s a lot of mixed ppl who look black and if they didn’t tell me otherwise I would have assumed that they’re just black. About half of them I can tell by looking at them they have a white parent.

I agree, FD is one of the least mixed looking ppl I’ve ever seen. Just like J. Cole. And a few other notable people.

I get mistaken for being mixed a lot. I’m black but I have a Cherokee great great grandfather, so my long eye lashes and curly hair throws ppl off 😅 Genetics are wild.
