Selena’s mother’s adoptive parents are mostly of British Isles descent. David was born in Texas, and is the son of Ernest William Cornett and Helen Elizabeth Spangler. Debbie is the daughter of J. C. Gibson and Lois Maybell Pierce.
Selena’s parents separated when she was five years old, and her mother later married Brian Teefy.
She was named after Tejano singer and actress Selena Quintanilla-Pérez. Selena has released a Spanish-language EP.

Nope, you have mental issues. Americas were populated by people who came from Asia through Bering Strait, before the arrival of Europeans post 1492
Are you ok?
The “white men” (Scandinavian seamen) reached the coasts of modern Canada before Columbus discovery, but they did not settle and colonize.
all people came from africa,even thou some moved northward and became lighter skin. only the native american is a pure race.
scientist have discover a genetic mutation that explains white skin in humans,after the first exodus from africa when all people were brown skin.persons ofsrings moved northward into what is now europe,helping to give rise to the lightest of the world races.skin color is only part of what race is. please get a good education in biology–a phd–will do.
