    For snoop dogg, i’m not surprised he has 29% of white DNA, i always thought he was a sort of coolie or something (coolie=black with a little native west indian or native american admixture)

    33% white on a DNA test,3% indian,the rest black ;yet look at him.Your basing your opinion on outward appearances,that doesn’t work.Another example,since you brought your friend.Both my great grandfathers were white,both my great grandmothers were creoles,Both my grandmothers were half white/half creole,one of my grandfathers was white,one of my grandfathers was black latino,yet I’m darker than chris.Two of my siblings are chris brown color,well actually my sister lighter than he is.Alot of cousins on my mother side are dark.Now base on what you said,with all that white blood in them,should they be that dark?
    Now you talking about things you know nothing about,you have plenty of 50/50 african people who look white:

    and so many other that are not famous.Also I don’t know where you got the idea that all west Africans are dark.That again shows me you know very little about the place.Also with two Bi-racial people, there’s no telling what child is going to look like.
    Now you don’t want us to call people like chris black,then what would you suggest?Because I would like to know what I should call the vast majority of my family.
    Oh you also forgot about all those legal marriages before slave even started,and that a large amount of black family got started from white women,before and during slavery,and after it.There is other things I could show you
