Now I'm not one of these crazy coli folks who go off on wild tangents about biracials ain't %110 thoro bred jet black Africans ...fukk dem nikkas
Like "Africa" ain't full of mixed people already in places; like (damn near)the entire north African region, cape verde, parts of south africa, parts of the swahilli coast, etc.
That said there is a point at which I'm like.....
20% African???
These people fam... them dudes brothers
If ol boy in the blue walked up on "coli militants" talking some hiphop shyt......
That's genetics though so... Just some lighthearted fukkery to start the day with
Edit:
Figured these stats in the quote below would provide insight to questions raised by this thread so I'm adding them here...

The three southern African American populations
(New Orleans, Houston, and Charleston) show a wide
range of admixture values (11.6%–22.5%). The
Charleston population is of special interest because data
on admixture proportions in African Americans from
the former southern British colonies (South Carolina and
Georgia) have been used to postulate differences in gene
flow between the northern and southern African American
populations. The population of Charleston shows
the lowest m value (11.6%) of all the U.S. populations
analyzed in the present study, but it is not very different
from the estimates of one of the northern African American
populations—namely, Philadelphia. It would be
very interesting to have data on additional samples of
southern African American populations to confirm the
existence of a low European contribution in this particular
area and to study the extent of heterogeneity in the
admixture proportions at this geographical level.
In any case, our study shows that not all the southern
African American populations have as low a European
genetic contribution as that found in the Charleston sample.
The estimate forHouston (16.9%) is similar to other
values observed in northern urban populations (Detroit
and Baltimore), and New Orleans shows the highest m
value of the cities studied (22.5%), which deserves special
attention. The history of the Louisiana territory has
been quite different from the history of other southern
regions in the United States. This area was under French
rule for a substantial period, until it became part of the
Spanish territory in 1763 and, finally, of the United
States some decades later, in 1803. Both the geographic
origin of the slaves imported to Louisiana and their
status during the French domination have been distinct
from what happened in the southern British colonies
(e.g., South Carolina). There have been historical accounts
of more substantial intermixture in the New Orleans
area (Williamson 1995; Piersen 1996), so this
could partly explain the observed differences in ancestral
proportions between Charleston and New Orleans.
