She looks more Indian than Black.
@Princess she definitey looks more black. Her face is African but her hair is Indian influenced jet black hair.
Do Indian Trinidad’s descend from davidians cause that would explain why she looks more black than Indian?
Yeah most likely,a lot of davidian can pass as black(that’s because they descend from the cushite tribes of Africa and don’t have Arabian/aryan blood like north Indians)so its possible she takes after her father.
stfu she’s still pretty
