All of us have ancestors that are from Africa. Really, we are all African. However, some of us are white African’s that
are not albinos. Purebred folks with
more recent African ancestry are less likely to be successful in northern
wintery climates. How do I know
this? Because many years ago after
migrating to northern Europe, there starts to be Caucasians in the fossil
record. That is, according to historical
genetics, white skin was a mutation that enabled Caucasians to survive in
northern Europe. Those with black skin
were not as well adapted to the climate, and thus all the black skinned
African’s in that area died off during that period. Additionally, in warmer climates, white folk
are less likely to be successful. White
folk need stuff like sunscreen as they get closer to the equator. Personally, I have olive toned skin, neither
black nor white. Sometimes I have
identified more with black skinned Africans, and sometimes more with white
skinned Africans.
