My paternal great-grandmother was Asian but her husband was so dark it washed out my chances of having "almond shaped eyes" and "good hair" lol my family is the rainbow coalition. Everytime, we get a good thread going someone goes and marries one of the others.
I see you are young bright, black, smart mouthed with a great diverse gene pool. Good for you. I know your parents are proud and continue the good work and make them beam even more.
They were speculating last night on CNN about the purple dress she wore the night Barack won the nomination. Was it symbolic of his efforts to go after purple states etc.
Purple is a sign of royalty and she probably felt that way as well. She must have felt like a queen knowing that her husband was the nominee, a shining star for the people, and a powerhouse for the masses. GIVES ME CHILLS!!

15 min. of fame is not so bad....even for Michelle she can have it in my opinion and than it is back to reality.....

My mom shakes her head at me a lot. I think she's shocked by some of the things that come out of my mouth. I tried to tell her"Mom, it's not the things that come out, but the things that go in that you should worry about"
Then I had to wait for her to stop chasing me with the broom to tell her I meant chocolate balls you know Whoppers. I eat them all the time.
I'm Natalay and I'm a Whopperholic.

Purple makes me think of Barney. Maybe Michelle was sending Hillary a subliminal message "your campaign extinct"

Wow, my Grandmother (father's mother) was South Asian (Bengali...from around Calcutta, India); yet I look like the "standard" Black American in every way (deep brown skin, thick mouth and nose, thick unruly hair). Both of my maternal grandparents also had Native American grandparents; in fact, my Grandfather's facial features and hair show this strongly. But again...I didn't get those genes. All the African-type genes just melded together and created me .
The majority of African Americans in the USA are mixed
Thats how we became black people - no one had the time to list all the ethnic backgrounds. Almost every black family I know claims to have some Native American genes in the mix somewhere down the line.
