Would it be wrong to declare it, or if it's in the realm of possibility is it okay? I know for sure my family, at one time or another, during their life, was around an african american, so...
I'm hispanic, grandparents from Spain, Mexico, Denmark and somewhere else I forgot. I'm somewhat pale but I tan easily, I think I can pull off maybe 1/10th around there or somewhere around that fraction...
...so...immoral?
I'm not getting any monetary benefits, more like a conversation starter..

If Zola Budd becomes an American citizen, would she be an African American (and be eligible for the associated employment application and college entrance benefits)?
Isn't there some sort of 1/4 rule or 1/16 rule, I forgot, that must be met to be counted as African American?
Theoretically, everyone is 1/(2^^n)th African if n is big enough.

Why would you do something like that? Your first two statements should answer your own question. Why not be Heinz 57 like many of the rest of us. Is your reason based on thinking you MIGHT get some sort of monetary gain from it?

If it makes you feel better we're ALL African... if we go back far enough in our geneology.
Yes. Africa is where humanity supposedly started, so we are ALL African in that regard.
