re: 1 in 8 white Louisianians has black ancestry, highest percentage in country

I just found this out in the last couple of years. First ancestor to come over came to Louisiana in 1718. Was actually a pretty common practice in Colonial Louisiana to have white wives and black concubines. The concubines could actually inherit a percentage of the man's property upon his death.
Was doing some research on Ancestry.com and got a notice in February (Black History Month) on "how to research my African American origins." I always wondered why I was a white boy with a fro. Questions answered.
Ready for my reparations Bitches.

Oh hell!
My parents had eight children. I will be looking around the Christmas table tomorrow to try to locate the one in eight you're talking about. If that doesn't work, I'll try the mirror.

How many of you will divorce your wives for being brotha-lovas now?

Not surprising. I knew a "black creole" family that had two sons. One son identified as white and married a white woman and assimilated into white America, and one identified as black and married a black woman. So, their kids were first cousins but didn't really acknowledge each other because the "white side" was passé blanc.

Doesn't Louisiana also have the most murders per capita?

People in Louisiana have a redder tint to their skin than other southerners. Bunch of Indian for sure.

So, how are you supposed to determine this?
Shoot free throws?
Eat a bucket of chicken?
Make red beans?
Fix an old car?
How do you know?
