Looking at the one facebook photo of him he is most certainly either “white Hispanic” or “white Native American” or “white African American.”
There’s some sort of reference to England being of Native American descent on his Facebook, which certainly is likely based on being in Oklahoma, and of course the posted picture.

Killing suspect is arrested at Tulsa hospital
Tulsa World (OK) - Thursday, April 8, 2010
Author: MATT BARNARD World Staff Writer
A ex-convict who is implicated in a deadly shooting was found at a hospital Tuesday seeking treatment for injuries he reportedly received in a fight just before the slaying.
Pernell Demond Jefferson is accused of shooting CarlEngland , 47, during an ongoing fight at the Comanche Park apartment complex Monday night. England went to the complex to help his daughter after Jefferson tried to break into her apartment, according to his arrest report.
Jefferson, who records show is either 37 or 38, suffered head and arm injuries in the scuffle and sought treatment at St. John Medical Center the next day, police said. Someone spotted him there and called the police, who arrested him about 2:20 p.m., the report states.
Officer Jason Willingham said a murder complaint against Jefferson is pending.
The shooting reportedly stemmed from a scuffle between Jefferson and Damien Neal, who is England ‘s daughter’s boyfriend.
Neal told officers that he hit Jefferson with a baseball bat before the attempted break-in, police said.
Jefferson then left to find a gun, saying he would come back to “settle the dispute,” the report states. Meanwhile, England arrived and went looking for Jefferson with Neal.
The men soon found him, and another confrontation unfolded. England struck Jefferson with a stick, and Jefferson shot him after falling to the ground, police allege.
England was shot in the chest and died at a hospital. His death was Tulsa’s 11th reported homicide of 2010, police said.
Jefferson is in the Tulsa Jail on complaints of attempted burglary, possession of a firearm after the former commission of a felony and an outstanding traffic warrant.

My guess is Native American descent. Oklahoma is rich with NA tribes.
