The wide nose and cheekbones are dead giveaways to African heritage. The eyes are her native past. The more I look at her the more I believe the article.
She's a Mestizo latino.
Her cheekbones are because of her native american ancestry not any possble small african ancestry she might have, and even if she did have some african ancestry that wouldn't make her black because she is obviously mostly of native american and european ancestry like most Hondurans.

LOL! Chill out! No one said she was only black. The article merely stated she has African ancestry. BTW, the way you are reacting what's so bad about being black?

Nothing is bad about being black, And if she has some black no problem, but my point is she is not a blatina, she is a mestizo latino because she is mainly of Native american and european descent, Her eyes and high cheekbones are because of her native american ancestry.

she is mostly or primarly mestizo or native american just like how Puerto Ricans are mostly European extract and Dominicans are mostly African extract.

Hondurans are very short if you notice, some do have African blood, Many south & central American countries imported slaves from Africa

How can there not be such as thing as a "full" PR? You bill yourself as "All" American...which is no different than being "All" or "Full" PR.
