I consider them white tbh cause if black people with 1/4th white heritage are considered black then the same should apply to the opposite scenario.  Here are some examples of 1/4th black celebs and celeb kids, would you really be cool if one of them called you nigga?

Hey bew :wub:

Race is a socially constructed category.....nothing to do with ethnicity
So like most people I'd probably just call it as I see it. You look like me, you black. :dead:

i was just as shocked when I heard Mimi had black blood in her.
i saw her as a cute womuh for the longest time.  :plzstop:

but then again, she did straighten her dark curly hair, make it blond, etc.
sometimes I think she purposely gave more of a white tea.
but if we're gonna accuse her we should do the same for beyonce.

anyway..
I think it's all about which side of the family has the stronger genes.

A person who is 1/4 white wouldn't be seen as anything else other than black, don't know why the opposite should be different(I know why it is Im just saying)

!!!!

People often confuse race with ethnicity.

Ethnicity is what you are on paper. Race is what you are in the mirror.

Sometimes the combination of your ethnicity can appear here and there in your features. But at the end of the day, more times than not, a bottom line of black or white can be drawn.

most of the time 1/4 black people look like the ones in the OP.

It's just most blacks in the Americas aren't fully black anyway so someone like Mariah who is "Half black" isn't even really half black.

True.

Like people who swear up and down their great great ancestor was 100% this or 80.5% that. It makes me cringe. Like, what proof do you have of this?

Tamia's half white. Her white father abandoned her and her mother before she was born. He gave Queen her yellow skin and freckles
