To be considered black in the United States not even half of one's ancestry must be African black.
But will one-fourth do, or one-eighth, or less? The nation's answer to the question 'Who is black?"
has long been that a black is any person with any known African black ancestry. This definition
reflects the long experience with slavery and later with Jim Crow segregation. In the South, it became
known as the "one-drop rule,'' meaning that a single drop of "black blood" makes a person black.
It is also known as the "one black ancestor rule," some courts have called it the "traceable amount rule,"
and anthropologists call it the "hypo-descent rule," meaning that racially mixed persons are assigned
the status of the subordinate group. This definition emerged from the American South to become the
nation's definition, generally accepted by whites and blacks. Blacks had no other choice. As we shall
see, this American cultural definition of blacks is taken for granted as readily by judges, affirmative action officers,
and black protesters as it is by Ku Klux Klansmen.

When the UK royal couple of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were about to have their first baby,
I was so uptight about the skin color of the baby.
I don't know how you guys felt about it.
Anyway, it turned out to be a tremendous blessing and relief that the baby came out in white skin.
Imagine the surprise, as all expected, if the baby was black or darker.
According to Dr. Ohn's definition, the royal baby, Archie, is still black in American terms.
unless the definition is different in the United Kingdom.
Well, let the British define the blackness under a different term so that Archie is not a black.
