    She is very white, white father and white mother too, even if she had been born in Bolivia, she would still be white. If she marries a European with black hair like her, will not have Indian children or whatever else I know. Another typical white, who even picking up a bronze fools any racist asshole.

    “Cuban” is not a race. It is more correct to say that you have Spanish-Cuban, Afro-Cuban or Cuban-Indian ancestors.

    She looks “white” although her Cuban is not.
