I've seen dark skinned brunettes and fair skinned tow-headed blonds who were full siblings. I know a set of twins where one looks as "mexicano" as can be and the twin sister is blue eyed blonde --- and the parents call her the "anglita" --- she could easily pass for Dutch or German but her brother not so easily. I knew Dutch immigrants --- grew up in Holland who were very dark-skinned with jet-black hair --- all they said was they were Dutch --- I don't know if they had other ancestry --- maybe from the slave trade days or some other Dutch colonies. But they were Dutch and spoke only that language when they first arrived.

To me, race is very political and the concept of race and how someone looks is really outdated. More than anything culture is what is really on people's minds.
