One drop rule dichotomy

Because white was considered normal in America, with black being "other". Conversely in Africa, if you were part European, you're the "other". Obama actually talked about going to Kenya and saying that he's Luo and they laughed at him and called him a white boy. I forgot which book of his he wrote that it.

it isn't? I call someone black if they look fucking black. if the one drop rule applied then everyone in the south would be black

Blacks come in a spectrum of shades and phenotypes.

same with "white". they're very broad categories. but someone with blond hair and blue eyes is not conventionally black just because a dna test says they have some african ancestory

that pretty much debunks the one-blood bullshit. Ashkenazi jews are smart and successful as hell and even they have african mixture. Therefore, all the arguments claiming that modern greeks and italians arent really the same as the ancient greeks and romans are pretty much moot. clearly, nothing phenotypically has changed due to tiny amounts of mixture
