Jose, why don’t you just come out and say that you do not think any black woman can be pretty unless she is mixed. Almost every gorgeous black woman posted on here, you comment claiming that she is mixed with something else even if she is clearly not. You are clearly reaching and being ridiculous. Sanna Lathan has two black American parents and she’s beautiful. Get over it.

A lot of African Americans have Native American descent!! Which doesn’t make her any different than the average AA woman. Oprah also have Native American descent So what she is Considered African American
