    Bengali Indians are white, they descend from the original Aryans. So, i guess the obvios by looking at her : She is full white LOL… She looks like she could be from any Eastern European country. There is nothing “POC” about her at, she is just a regular white person. The fact that she is not full euro does not make her any leds white, white people are not only indigenous to Europe, and If we really go look up in history, Central Asians are the original white people, they spread to parts of the Middle East, parts of southwest Asia(like where the bengalis live), parts of North Africa, and then arrived and became homogeneus in the place that we now call Europe. So there is no real “european ancestry”, or “caucasian/european race”, Europe was colonized by Central Asians, white people come from there. So she is white, that’s it.

    I think this is her father. (His mother’s maiden name was “Corbett”, but I couldn’t find their marriage)
