Generally you can, but not always. Physicalities can be just so varied and then we haven't even touched on people mixing. I get in arguments often as to whether you can tell someone is bi-racial or dominican just by looking at someone and the answer has to be you can't 100% of the time.

Well that's the point though, dude gamed the system by twerking his appearance and I am sure he crafted essays to mislead people into thinking he is black.


All to say, you can't say folks were certain he was Indian.
