Your right about that.The problem is you have to know the tribal name,or else you can’t find them on the net.That why people always think of black as one color,instead of and umbrella term
to chief mulatto native :
Pure blacks are not black as charbon, sorry !!!! You can have pure black people who are light skinned, there is a lot of african tribes where people are all very light skinned, like other tribe where ppl are completely black skinned.
I think you should make a trip to Africa to see it by yourself !!!!
Anyway i heard that tiger woods doesn’t consider himself as black, but asian. I’m not sure about it i was speechless when i knew it .
Those tribes had to mix with some Berbers, Arabs, Semetic, or European people in order to be lighter. They wouldn’t call “Negriods” “blacks”
or maybe he paid? which would make him a trick
No,he’s just a dog,a whore get paid.I’m sure he gave it away for free
Hes a whore
