This is identity politics taken to absurdity.
If I found out I was 35% of ANYTHING it would not effect me in the slightest.
I am what I am, and what and how I feel would remain unchanged. As far as I know my background is entirely German/Irish for as far back as we are able to build a family tree.
I have no affinity or allegiance or love for either Germany or Ireland. I have no guilt for anything Germany might have done as a people. I’m not interested in kissing the Blarney Stone. I’m not even sure what it is and why you kiss it. All of this is meaningless to me.
Not so this dumbass HuffPoo writer.
Her entire reason for existing is wrapped up in some sort of necessary dynamic between whites and blacks. That is sad.
Christine Michael Carter, a black contributor, decided to go through an ancestry report as part of Black History Month. She wrote that the results of the report shocked and dismayed her.
According to the data from 23andMe, Carter is 67.2% Sub-Saharan African, 31.5 % European (white), .6% East Asian/ Native American and and .6% unassigned.
“Huh? Of all the emotions which materialized from the results, the two strongest were disorient and shame,” Carter wrote of her realization that she was almost one third white.
Carter went through a long process of trying to reconcile her job as a black marketing expert, with the fact that she was also part white.
“…But as someone who has become a Black millennial marketing expert… this s*** matters. It’s as if I’ve obscured the one thing which has guided me since I was nine years old… my heritage,” Carter went on. “As inappropriate (but honest) as it sounds, I’d discovered I had the so-called “superior” race running through my veins, and never before had I felt so inferior.”
It is well known that black people usually have white blood as well. According to a genetic study, the “African American” genome is usually 73.2 % African, 24% European and .8 percent Native American.
Carter, despite knowing this, still wrestled with her whiteness.
“While I’m no Rachel Dolezal, I must accept the fact I do have White ancestors. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, but quite honestly, the road to acceptance will not be an easy one for me to travel,” she wrote.

What up, cousin?
There’s only one option, gun mouth now. What, you hate guns? O.K. make the incisions on your wrist lengthwise. Bottom line you should kill yourself before the white demon takes over your mind.
Damn stoopid phucks. It’s even worse because they
have a public venue to show how stoopid they are.
That’s it. Sign the white devil up for reparations payments.
I was very excited to find out i had no indian blood.
Charlie, wow dude, harsh. I self indenitfy as a Cheyenne Dog Soldier. LOL
I self identify as an American.
If the left want to compartmentalize me then
the can make me a white, gun toting, bible carrying,
conservative American who speaks only engrish.
They can blow me either way.
Brad, really i was. My dad always called us wild little indians. He called my mom squaw. I was worried. Then i discovered my families true history. I was like, dude, how cool is that. Not an indian in sight.
When did US blacks get the idea in their heads that they could look down on whites as second class humans? We pay your bills you negro scum. Did these morons convince themselves that Obama becoming President meant some kind of tribalistic minority rule got instituted? Think again you fascist jigaboo scumbags. You can’t chimp out forever, and you ain’t got the numbers or the brains to enslave all the white people all the time.
Just case of life long denial. How in the hell could see look in a mirror and not see she was part European. She’s light skinned and lost most all of her negro features. I know Portuguese women darker then her.

Rule number one, never take anything I type here after 10:00 PM serious.
Rule number two, Shit I forgot where I was going with number two, but I’m sayen if your dad thought you were Injun you’re a fucking Injun. LOL.
HOW.
Why wouldn’t anyone have an allegiance to their ancestry? 😩
That’s upsetting, tbh.
Most African Americans have an approx 25% admixture of Anglo-Saxon DNA. This is not a hidden secret. Or, I guess it was to Miss HuffPo…someone needs to read actual books not based on fake science.
Well, she should do the right thing and end her suffering right now. I’m sure she could get her hands on a hot shot or some other method of painlessly departing this world and there would be one less racist on the planet, well 1/3 less racist and to most of her compatriots that would be worth it.
Maybe she should wear a big sign around her neck that says 35% white and ring a hand bell to warn others she is approaching.
Wonder how long it is until she indulges in all the white privilege. You know, free food, free housing, free medical care, free utilities, free college. Never mind.
Eugenia,
🙂 That hurt me belly…..bwhahahahahaha!
Doesn’t she have a mirror?
“well 1/3 less racist”
No, she’s 100% racist. That’s all she sees or cares about. She just mind-fucked herself.
This is a situation where cognitive dissonance should happen.
Betting it won’t because you have to want to live in actual truth, not a made-up one, to experience it.
If most blacks have 25% white DNA, shouldn’t we refer to them as African/Euro Americans? We don’t want to be racially insensitive.
She has two choices…..
Surgically remove the 35% white part of herself, or ease her suffering by killing herself. I can hand her tools to accomplish either one. It might even be a first, in that she actually accomplished something.
With the name Christine “Michael” Carter, she may find that she is a white transsexual, too.
Welcome to the white man’s burden Christine. Now hurry up and pay those taxes.
Her worries are ridiculous! It’s perfectly obvious the only thing she needs to be ashamed of is that haircut.
That 1/3 is what makes her getup and work each day. The other 2/3 just monkeys around all day.
I was shocked to find out I was not native American. My family always believed we were from the same tribe as Elizabeth Warren.
My youngest has hemoglobin D, likely handed down in the bloodline from european conflicts in Africa during the 1800s when a related soldier got frisky with a local. Don’t know if it’s from my wife (probably) or from me, but he shouldn’t have offspring with a black woman or the baby has 25% chance of sickle cell. Now whites and blacks don’t want to be around the shamed Huff-Po writer.. oh the humanity!
Well, the only way to escape her
own “shameful” skin is suicide.
Good riddance,to the twit.
She’s a perfect illustration of the archaic saying, “An idle mind is the devil’s workshop”. Nothing better to do than play around with silly ancestry sites while the rest of us are rolling up our sleeves trying to make America great again ‘bleach byte-ing’ the O’bamo failed legacy.
But if you need a bright side, figure this: at least you didn’t find out you were the result of one of Bill Klinton’s “bimbo eruptions” (yet).
This lost person is stuck in the 19th century with her talk of “superior” races. The only places where those obsolete ideas are still current is in ethnic studies departments on college campuses.
The albino must mean 35% black. This is 50% or less (depending who you believe is the real daddy) black: http://static2.businessinsider.com/image/568d2247e6183eee168b7028-480/barack-obama-crying-tear-tears.jpg
Say Christine, ever had a little Arab in you? I know your ancestors did. Many times.

Anything to keep the Clinton and Obama felonies off the front page.
If it weren’t for the 31.5 % European (white) ancestry she probably wouldn’t have a high enough IQ to make it to where she is today. She should be thankful for it.
So how will reparations work? Not only will her reparation money RECEIVED be reduced by 35%, but now she must make reparation PAYMENTS that are 35% of a fully white person. Sux to be you, Christine!
By the way, you don’t see sub-Saharan africans “in the wild” who are light-skinned, unless there is a honkey in the wood pile.
So now she is officially 35% racist and only eligible for the second tier level affirmative action status!
Just found out I’m 35% black. Hello 25 hour work week! Woo-hoo!
“When I was born, I was so excited I couldn’t walk for a year.”
Gracie Allen.
Now that’s a GOOD joke.
From what I gather I have mostly Irish, Scotch blood, perhaps a squirt of Viking here and there throughout the ages, even a drop or two of a High King, a druid, even a Bishop, but not a smidgen of black blood. Guess I’m phucked when the revolution comes. Molair!
Will she now start using big words a third of the time?

How ignorant do you have to be not to know after many generations different ethnic groups located in the same location would eventually mix. Thanks to progressive “no education” millenials have infantile logic. Mzz Intellectual will have a rude awakening when reality hits her one day.
I’m a mongrel. Wanna feel my nose?
There’s always Shoop Polish. Shineola is very good.
It’ll help her in her career as a “Black millennial marketing expert”.
But she best keep the 35% on the down low. That shit’ll get you killed in most American cities.
