Lol. These comments are too funny. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Those of you that are leaving ignorant or racist comments, STOP. Your just making yourself look stupid. But those of you who are just stating what you think and how you feel, speak your mind.(: I thought and still do think that Chris Brown is mixed, Black and White. Whether it was b|c of his mom, grandma, grandpa, that doesn’t matter, it’s still in his blood one way or another. And I’m not Black nor White. It’s just my opinion. Deal w| it. ;D
I just wanted to say that just because they said all races MAY have come from Africa, They never said Black people came first…Not being mean or racist but that was a genetic adaptation that occurred because Black people stayed in Africa. Their have been a number of theories opposing that generalization because Ancient Egyptians, one of the earliest civilized peoples were not Black….Although I will say this, as much as white people, generally, think they are the greatest race and black people are the dirtiest, white people are the closest direct descendants of peoples from Africa (Closer than Asians even)

Well first black is a very broad term,which includes a few colors.The first color was most likely dark brown(talking about us,not homo this homo that).tHIS would allow us to go from (darker to lighter)as we adapted to a climate.Now the mutation that brought about white or pale skin (which)going by the experts is only 5.5-6000yrs old.I think it pretty much proven that white came from black.For example of what vitiligo does to black people:

Now black people did not stay in Africa,they explored just like every other color does.they left some came back,Africa was a open door.Some got darker while others got lighter.Then others settled in colder climates,with different foods etc,and then mutations happen.It happens with other animals all the time.However unlike other animals,we didn’t stay away from each other to become different species.That’s why white people are so close to black people,we stayed in contact.Now I have proven this a hundred times that the ancient Egyptians were black.However just like I said Africa was an open door.For thousands of years people came in,there were invasions;and with that comes mixing.They show you guys pictures on walls,but they don’t tell you when those pics were done.They don’t show you the early dynasties.Or how the ancient writers describe the Egyptians(as being black skin,full lips,and woolly or kinky hair).Egyptians came from the interior of Africa,from the south.
Also Asian was covered with black people:

Asians are forever talking about the little black people who they pushes off there land.The thing is these black people have asian blood
from the wherever i read your comments I know that you are the afro-nutt. a
black supremacist. lol
I learned about you people. always thought that how can a group of people believe in that shit.
mulatto is very a derogatory word. you like to basterdize every others races who aren’t white. like to claim black blood. sad and stupid. .
I dont believe in “out of Africa theory”.
ashole asshole asshole your jus an asshole
I actually read an interview online and Chris Brown himself said that his Dad is black and his grandfather on his Mom’s side was Native American.He didn’t mention any white at all like everybody assumes when someone is light skinned.
Yeah, I think his mom is mixed with white and black. Chris is very light skin, but his mom is VERY high yellow.
