So, half Black Henry Louis Gates is lying?
Who the hell is that?
You should be asking yourself if those pictures are lying. In school, did you read about or see anything about Indians being as dark as the pictures portray? Heck, you can read about what they said themselves back in the day:
Professor Constantine Rafinesque: The Primitive BLACK Nations of America(1832)
"The Native American Negroes or black Indians have been seen in Brazil, Guyana, Caraccas, Popayan, Choco, North California and etc:
The Aroras or Caroras of Cumana, were black, but with fine features and long hair, like the Jolofs and Gallas of Africa.
The Esteros latitude 32, are like the Hottentots and the Numuquas, Tambukis, and many other Nigritian tribes, not black, but dark brown, yet complete Negroes, with large thick lips, broad flat noses, and very ugly, with hair crisped or curly. All these tribes live in New California The Aroras or Caroras of Cumana, were black, but with fine features and long hair, like the Jolofs and Gallas of Africa.

The American Negroes of Quarenqua, in Choco, (the great level plain 900 miles long, 90 wide, separating the Andes of South America from the mountains of Panama,) were black and with woolly heads in 1506. They are mentioned by Dangleria, and all the early accurate writers."
Or you can listen to the cac of today who hides history so he can keep his power...
