same 'crisis' we've had in south africa, where u have black peeps and black 'coloured' south africans i.e they'r lite skinned,clearly with some western genes in 'em, but they grow up as black peeps and then u get the classical 'cape coloured' whose basically like that but grew up in a more white setup.

but the real confusion was in the apartheid days when peeps had to be classified accordin to race n all,so ud have coloureds of a darker tone bein white and vice versa,ur brother could actually be classified as white n u black,ha ha, i find this concept so ridiculous.

all in all i reckon if u are an african native,i.e if uv got black blood in u then that makes u black/African, whetha u at the extreme north or south of the equator....
