Who Exactly is "Mixed Race"?

- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Who exactly is mixed race or multiracial, and just what percentage of the world's population can be considered mixed race? Although it can sometimes be quite difficult to quantify just exactly who is mixed race and who is not, for today's video, I will be attempting to quantify this metric with objective standards.
We will be going over the various regions of the world and discussing and enumerating people groups and individuals who could be considered mixed race, even if the definition is quite loose and near impossible to pin down. Be sure to check out my previous videos where I go in depth into each of the extended regionalized ancestral continuums. Thanks for watching!

Wherever borders between countries or ethnic groups are easily passed, mixing usually occurs near those borders. Central Asia is a good example
You look euro Asian
You look Samoan.
Lynx I’ve been mistaken for many different ethnicities before but this is the first time someone said Samoan. Are you Samoan?
Janet Maria I am sort of, 50% South Asian, 25% East Asian, 25% European
etienne zhou No doubt that occurred as well. Genghis Khan comes to mind
I’m part Native American and white. I’ll say no one has EVER asked “are you Native American?” In the US (except Hawaii) I get Latino or people assume I speak Spanish. In Hawaii they thought I was Polynesian/white mix. When I lived in France or traveled in Europe, people thought I was Arab (specifically Lebanese). When I traveled to Asia. I got half white and half Thai, Filipino, or Japanese
I'm mixed with black and Indian from the island Trinidad. They call us "dougla" which is due to historical racial tensions. My gf is Chinese and I always think about how my family tree in the future is going to look so crazy lol.
trini to de bone
You’re right lol! Still together?
That's awesome!!!
@Green Scenery
Well you see, there’s this country called China…
Same
Not even Icelanders are homogenous. For what I know, they're a population of mixed viking sailor fathers and celtic mothers taken from the British isles.
norse gael men also settled there, it wasnt just gaelic and british women
Yea and also in the last 50 years many migrants entered Iceland who have mixed over the years.
@The Nova renaissance Celts and Germans are two diffrent races, so Iceland isn't homogenous.
they have found native american now too in some familys it seems a native girl came to iceland on one of the early north american voyages
We do have some celtic blood in us (which is cool, im fine with that) but its not like its 50/50
I grew up in Scotland and a mixed marriage was a Protestant wedding a Catholic.
Offspring were then referred to as half Catholic.
The brown people were Italian!
Nonsense on top of nonsense.
@House of Savoy That's because Sub-Race and Ethnicity aren't the same thing many south Europeans are Nordic and some North and West Europeans are Mediterranean and Alpine.
@@bloodsportdebates1995 Whats a sub-race?
@@houseofzuma1033 it's a category below race, it's a group who share some common features like a race but more fine gained, for example Caucasoids can be sub divided into at leats three major sub-races Nordic , Alpine, and Mediterranean, a good website to learn more is humanphenotypes dot net.

The point of the video is about how mixed we are and that's the point of my comment
Greetings from Croatia :)!
@Tube Tube taking nationalities. And if his parents are pure that means from his dads side hes asian (japanese) and from portugese side hes celtic (indo european). Of course if hes pure.
@Tube Tube Well since my Father family is not a mix family they are 100% Japanese from Hokkaido, my Mother family is mixed Portuguese( Latin European, Lusitanian ), with Croatian ( Slav ), maybe i have other's but i don't know...
I was born in Brazil also, my father's family is of Portuguese, Italian, African and Native American descent, my mother's family is of Portuguese descent
Cool
Black+White= "Mixed race" but they say "Black".
Yes. The pro-black movements claim mixed race people black+white are black just to increase their numbers. This is the same logic of american racist "one drop rule". Doesn't work for calling people white/european though.
kevin da silva gonçalves to increase our numbers? lol black women do not have problems getting pregnant, we are very fertile women... if we wanted to increase our numbers we’d just have more babies than we abort... we claim mixed race as black because that’s the way the world is gonna see them.. the police don’t put black in categories we’re all just black to them
@Estevão Casimira Being black is cool these days

So my man who is White loves me [ im kurdish Jew + Ashkenazi mixed]
lol that's just not true my man
I think everyone is “mixed” to varying degrees.
Indeed my brotha.
But identity politically we are not
@Ian Miles Nope.
I agree. I took a DNA test, and came out to be 89% English, 11% Scottish and Irish, but having researched my family's genealogy for over 40 years, I know we also have Native American, and Mizrahi Jewish ancestry. That is many generations ago, so doesn't contribute significantly to my DNA now.

I think these "mixed" populations are kind of an artifact of where you decided to draw the lines between races. Perhaps a more sociologically useful definition would be to say that races, while fundamentally genetic, are defined by culture. Thus, a population that is a distinct group (including if it's the majority) is by definition a race, and thus not mixed race. Basically, "mixed race" is what happens when the race boundaries that a culture sets up are broken.
I'm not really sure how this fits into continuum racism like "colorism", though. I think it doesn't. The whole idea of "mixed" race implies that there is such a thing as non-"mixed" race. That requires there to be hard boundaries, unless there's some kind of continuum between "more mixed" and "less mixed".
tbh we need to drop white, black or color in general as a racial classification.
Some people say I look like a Turk, or Turkic, but I'm not. I'm South Asian mixed with east Asian and Euro

Lynx Haha yes you said that before I think. First time someone said that! You must be Samoan, right?
MindRealm Insights Look Kazakh if anything
Interesting video. By the way, mixing as a result of colonialism in Africa did not just happen in the Cape. It happened throughout the continent. In fact, in Southern Africa, "colored" (as in cape-colored) is a term used to identify people of mixed race. Moreover, people of mixed race have formed communities to the point where some consider it a race on its own. I am one of them - Malawi, Southern Africa. I'm mixed with African Bantu, Indian, and Scottish.
I’d probably put you in the Black category.
@@nickb3345 That's okay. People have different opinions about what they think I look like. Like I said, I'm mixed so I accept what people say. I find it interesting.
I told a Korean friend once I was Scottish and English and he said "I didn't know you were mixed" such a weird moment for me. What is mixed is a matter of opinion only I think.
East Asians like the Koreans and Japanese are supposed to be very homogenous

Do you tan?
Or are you black and white?
Now I absolutely love my mixture.
There’s only one race however, human
We have different color shades, melanin or lack of.
Sicilian people were most conquered bringing a very vast mix of people’s.
I’ve not heard you talk about this as of yet.
When I was born I had to be tested for sickle cell.
I’m considered a mixed person but I do know not all Sicilian people are.
I think the whole mixed race thing is based on subjective links to nations, regions and cultures. Not really ethnicity at all. Because as the video said, you could say everyone is mixed race if you go back far enough. These days, we consider people of ancestry coming from the British Isles to be one of the most homogenized in the world. But in reality, they're one of the most mixed, as they were mixed in with the French, Celtic, Norse, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Russians, Indians, Africans, Middle Eastern and pretty much every group outside of East Asia. You just need to go back more than a few generations to find it. But again, notice how almost every label I just used was based on a regional or national identity. That's not really a good basis for grouping people together. At best, it's confusing since a group like "Brazilian" or "South American" is not one homogenized group. It's as big of a melting pot as the USA or UK.
The point I'm trying to make with all this is, I feel like ethnicity is kind of a pointless distinction these days. I know in many parts of the world it's still a big deal. Heck, it's becoming a big deal again in the USA with some people. But I just choose not to be one of those people.

I really liked your explanation here of what it is to be of mixed race. As a Latino of Mexican and Honduran descent, I grew up using the term mestizo to identify myself. The term literally means mixed in Spanish. My DNA test that I took a few years back clearly substantiates it: 37% Mexican Indigenous, 37% Spanish and the rest made up of many other ethnic groups including sub-Saharan African and Ancient Alien! #RazaCosmica
Basado
Nice! My dad’s Honduran and my moms Irish and some middle eastern I did a dna test and got 69% European 15% Native 10% Asain and North African and middle eastern and 6% sub Saharan African
I’m a bit late but yeah, you described pretty much why Hispanics/Latinos are mixed raced. A combination of western/southern European, Native American/indigenous, and a little bit of African. Just like myself
Ew
I met a person in uni with Spanish first and last names whose skin was dark brown, but with spiky straight hair- he looked like a very dark Mexican. It turns out he is Honduran and a pretty easy going guy. The point is appearances don't tell you who a person is or how he is she identifies in the world. A person gets to do that for themselves. If society labels someone, it's up to that person to at least make the effort to correct that society in some way. As
a tiny bit of that society, I usually view people with a multicultural lens anyway. A woman and I once shared our ancestry backgrounds in conversation, and remarked hers (German +Norwegian) was "rather boring." I remarked that the cultures - despite both being European - were quite diverse, noting the foods (staying away from the lutefisk, mind you) special to each.
You cover such complex information with simplicity when explaining making it easy for rest of us to understand 😊

That's why we in the Caribbean who know our family tree just call ourselves by our nationality race thing don't make any sense. Don't understand at all why so many keep feeding this retarded unscientific idea that humans can just be grouped into a stupid box and call it a day. Doctors have to treat every patient individually even in families so it baffles me how people claim this and this race is stupid and that and that is prettier and better than everyone else.
@@hainleysimpson1507 I KNOW!! That's what I love about our general carribean cultures. We don't honestly care
@Nyarlathotep You sound like you are clueless. No such thing as race it's made up bullshit.
@Nyarlathotep It's far more sensible an accurate to group people based on their culture than appearance.
I would love for you to do a video on the British Afro Caribbean people of Honduras, Nicaragua, and Belize!! It's a very interesting mixed race group. My father is from the Bay Islands, Honduras and many people do not know about this culture and I always find myself having to explain how I am Honduran but not Spanish.
Race is a social construction and it changes over time and defined by who is in charge of the Census. Even defined differently in different Nations.
That map you showed of Chinese “dialects”is extremely inaccurate. It’s all over the internet, but anyone who knows Sinic **languages**(not dialects) would understand the extremely flawed nature. The problem is, according to the common attitude of Chinese people, English, French, German, and Spanish would all be considered closely related“dialects”of one another - they have different colloquial standards of differentiating “language & dialect” that 99% of Westerners would disagree with
Absolutely! I like this guy's videos, but when it comes to these nuances, he's just like all other people.
for me Chinese and Vietnamese sound the same.
@@BETOETE Its because the vietnamese have a lot of mixture with the Chinese. Just like in southeast Asia Malaysian and Indonesian and Philippines have the similar language family and genetics. Its due to geography, in Europe there are a lot of germanic sounding and slavic sounding languages. So basically what I'm saying is that some areas will have similarities in language, culture and genetics.
I recently took a DNA test, and I'm a mix (even if it doesn't look like it) of Japanese / Korean, Chinese / Vietnamese, some Central Asians, like the Kazakhs (and maybe the kyrgyz) and a tiny bit of Finnish. Never thought of that. I'm only 47% Korean / Japanese, and I guessed maybe like 50-70 % Korean.. :) I'm adopted.
Really interesting! I know one asian girl who surprisingly had Finland in small percentage too there.
You got the whole Asians in you, girl.
I have Finnish in me!
Finland language is an unknown origin. Its not germanic like all of northern europe. Finland actually closest tries to Japanese language. Thats what i've heard. Funny thing is there is also a conspiracy theory that japanese were doing illegal Whaling near Finland and had to cover up their activity by creating a language unknown to those in the region. Doesnt make any sense to me. Also a conspiracy tying to the finnish language is that Finland doesnt actually exist but is instead just part of sweden.

Why are you still talking of "race" if it is quite clear that "race" as a classification does not make sense? Here you demonstrated that a third of the worlds population does not fit into one race, even if you separate the genetically somewhat destinguishable ten races, instead of just 4 or 5 how it has been done traditionally. If you are speaking of "race" people also think of the categories the racist American state classifies, which do not make sense at all. This can lead to confusion.
Hazaras and Uighurs are around 50% east and 50% west-eurasian. Yet most of the time Hazaras are counsiderd east-eurasian and uyghurs as more west-eurasian.

to say that everyone is mixed as some do, might be true in a very long term, but it confuses the issue. Some populations have been quite isolated through centuries if not millenia from intercourse with other populations so that they have developed their own phenotype characteristics. You can call them ethnicities if you do not like the word race. For instance, there is no believable offspring between Native Americans and people of other parts of the world between around 10,000 BC and 1492.
I understand what you’re saying but the example you gave is a tad misleading. There was admixture in Arctic America between those dates with Inuit and Aleutian groups coming from far northeast Asia, and there was regular contact across the Bering Strait with Inuit-Aleutian and northeast Asian groups for quite some time.
Admittedly this didn’t have a noticeable effect outside the far North in both North America and Asia, but there was still a tiny bit of contact and the Greenlandic Inuit DNA mixture shown in the video attests to that.
You are right though, it’s very unlikely you’d find someone in 1300s Peru with any ancestors who migrated to the Americas from before 10,000 BC.
Weren’t the Easter islands populated by Southeast pacific people who had interactions with the Native Americans?
@@nejolo9563 the Easter Islanders are polynesians. There was no proven contact between them and Native Americans - some people have speculated of that but no proof
Most of my ancestors are estonians and swedes with smaller part of saami tribe. But since im the 3rd generation without that major rate of mixing, i can say that i'm native swedish.
Andres Karel Polynesians had early contact with South Americans, as that was how they came across the Kumara or sweet potato.
I'm African American. Purchased a DNA kit from 23 and me and my mix is almost exactly what Masaman shows here for us. 20% European, 2% Native American, 73% African, 5% they aren't able to say. My guess is that it's likely Native American since they are one of the few populations that haven't been widely sampled compared to other groups of people in the world. Thanks for doing this video!
Similar for me per 23andMe and Ancestry: 75% West/Central African and 24% Western European. 1% “trace/unassigned”. But the region of your African ancestry can vary depending on what part of the South you’re from.

And of course the second region, or let’s say continent is America with north and south.
No, Brazil is followed by India, trust me
A lot of people will look at the real mixed with hate and contempt. SPiscold they don’t care about the facts Bro and if they’re Brazilian then it’s Brazil all the way. Indian is a race.
Being a Cape Coloured from South Africa u couldnt have said it better ... We still suffer prejudice in our country decades after Apartheid have been abolished and labeled peoples without culture or heritage due to our complex mix race genetic make up and the world dont know about it coz if you look at South Africa u only see black or white but we have been an integral part of this country for millennia and is always overlooked. Having Indonesion, Dutch and Khio-San heritage makes me unique in my own right and proud to be called a Cape Coloured

I was born Yakutia, Russia. I have an Russian/Polish/Evenks/Yakutian ancestry from my father's side and Chukchis/Yukaghirian/Evens/Cossacks ancestry from my mother's side. Interesting part is that older and younger sisters of my maternal grandmother has light skin and grey/blue eyes despite asian looks, probably because their grandfather was of cossack origin.
Masaman, as your viewers, we are fortunate that you happen to come from such a mixed background and were therefore potentially more inclined to read and go on to educate others about human genetics. There are humbling lessons for humanity in learning about the history of migration.
As for myself, I am a descendant of Turkish and western European parents.
So based on your 25% criterion, it is possible the Western Eurasian part of me exceeds 75% and I am not mixed race. The current (anti-climactic?) predictions (eg. "White Shift", Eric Kaufmann) of integration of 'brown' immigrants into the white sociocultural group may be supported your 25% threshold.
Is that 25% threshold true? Is it real?

I love explorations of race and ethnicity like this. It's a travesty that this field began in a climate of pseudoscience and superiority complexes. I just want to learn where different peoples come from.
To answer some of your concluding questions, my immediate family has almost entirely Anglo-Irish and Norwegian ancestry. We are very, very white Americans. My mom's siblings, however, married non-European spouses, so we have cousins with partly Filipino or Lebanese backgrounds. On top of that, our religious expressions range from Quaker to Roman Catholic. But we're united in Christ, and that is sufficient.
@@agh6250 I'm not suggesting that the white "race" is any kind of objective, homogeneous category. I'm merely using a commonly accepted term describing the complexion of Northern and Western European peoples.
I was born in a peranakan Chinese family in Indonesia, which is Chinese decent who has immigrated to the Malay Archipelago for centuries and has already intermarriage with indigenous people. Most of us might still consider ourself as ethnically Chinese even though we don't look way too Chinese (but neither we look like fully indigenous Indonesian). There's a saying that "we are too Chinese for Indonesian, yet we are too Indonesian for Chinese"
Orang mana bro?
I'm from Brazil and I've Portuguese, indigenous, Arab, Italian and black ancestors
So true Im Afro Carribean I have some of South Asian and some native in my blood I came out with a straight nose and some predominantly south Asian features only two people in my extended family look alot like me
very interesting and diverse region for sure bro!
I would like to say mixed Ethnicity, Mixed Subrace and Mixed phenotype are not synonyms of Mixed race. I would like to say, Anglo-Frech, French-Swedish and at times Greek-Turkish(?) is not mixed race instead of mixed subrace/ethnicity, other case like Persian-Kurdish, Japanese-Chinese, Thai-Vietnamese, Vietnamese-Chinese(?) and even are only mixed ethnicity. As an example of Billie Eilish, she is mixed Scottish and Irish, she is really not mixed race at all but is a mix ethnicity, Same do Carly Rae Jepsen who is mixed Danish and Anglo-Saxon. If someone's specific racial gene is no less than 80-85%, I would consider them as monoracial, because that gene is so predominant.
In my view, mixed European and Middle Easterner/North African/Iranian are not mixed race, because they are all subrace belong to a racial group named West Eurasian.
Some middle eastern and North Africans are basically black and white. Some have very coarse or afro hair also
@@breezeeasy1064 I would like to say it is more common in Hinterland of North Africa, Saharan Desert and South Arabia. However, Levantine has little-to-no black gene and more closely related to Greek due to historical admixtures. Other parts of Arabia is not mixed much of the Blacks even if they have darker skin tone than Levant.
@@xiangtianxie8214 people of levante are semetic people. Sure they have allot of white skin people but that is same as Southern European such as greeks, italiand, Portuguese and spanish who have allot of brown skin like Arab semetic people. This is because of mixing of peoples of southern European and middle eastern semetic people as civilisations formed there. Added to this is...many European muslim from balkans and causcus emigrated in huge numbers when ottoman empire were declining. They settled in Ottoman lands such as Syria, Lebanon and turkey.
@daniel jungleheart Everyone is human, no rights to discriminate at all, no matter how diverse we are.
@@Beyonder1987 That's why census classifies Levantine into 'White' in Latin America.
Well some people think that I'm Asian, but I'm pure and proudly Ethiopia.
I grew up 'Black' in America with some known Caribbean ancestry and Native American ancestry and an assumption of European ancestry through slavery. My parents both classified 'Black' as well as grandparents and great grandparents. My 23andMe results African 60.2%, European 34.6, East Asian & Native American 3.3%, Bengali & Northeast Indian 0.3%, Broadly Western Asian & Northern African 0.2% & Unassigned 1.4%. I am also a RasTafari. I enjoy your works Masaman.
@Lola Torrez I have a lot of Puerto Rican DNA matches. So it is possible that I have some Boricua ancestry. There really is no average African American or Latinx. Which is why we have varied DNA results. It also sheds light on the fact that classifications can be erroneous.
@Lola Torrez I disagree because African American is a classification not an exact genetic composition. Someone with 40% African ancestry in America is still classified as Black like someone with 80%. Just like there is no exact genetic composition that makes someone Latinx or Hispanic.
@Lola Torrez There are African descendants in every Spanish speaking country especially in the Caribbean and many of them have more African ancestry than some people classified African Americans.
@Lola Torrez The average person classified African American is ethnically mixed. DNA testing shows and proves it. Many Spanish speaking countries encouraged European immigration because they are ashamed of having African ancestry. I have known Puerto Ricans and Dominicans who would not admit that have African ancestry until you educate them about actual facts.
At 3:40 "Sorry Finns, you don't make the cut" ? I don't get it. I am a Finn and I'm pretty sure the only people to ever call us "mixed" were Swedes when they oppressed us and justified it by saying that we're half "mongoloids" and hence not racially as good as them. Finns themselves have never claimed to be "mixed".

Many people are mistakenly think that , northern Indians are related to Caucasian race becoz they SPEAK Indo-European languages , which is not correct. Northern Indians are the mixture of native brown skinned people and the Aryans who invaded from north West and bought in that language ,just same as the Somalians and Ethiopians, they are mixture of African blacks and Arabs.
n L Wrong, the aryans didnt invade south asia, it was an ancient migration. And the aryans were not white or european in origin.
@Brown-Pride , well Indian theory is very controversial, the Aryan invasion is not a myth but true, because most of the people in northwest India are light skinned, while the Tamils are very dark
n L Nope, because the aryan invasion theory has already been conclusively debunked so its a fact that it never happened. North indians are lighter due to the climate they live in colder and less tropical regions compared to south indians.

so I am from Venezuela, both my parents are from Venezuela, my mom is white (in aspect at least, but her parents have portuguese, african and amerindian ancestry) and my dad is black (once again just in aspect as he has spanish and amerindian ancestry) most of that intermixing probably took place during the colonial era, that means hundreads of years ago, so could I consider myself mixed?
Obviamente 🙄🙄🙄
I absolutely loved this video! 🥰thank you 🥳
I am heavily of Nordic stock (directly and indirectly) with tiny bits of Roman, Balkan, Turkic, Spanish (though some sources show it as Basque), Yakut, and Haudenosaunee. The Native American side of my family (Mother) has a considerable history of interracial breeding with Europeans (at least mostly from England, Scotland, Ireland). My Grandmother was a Seneca on the Reservation, but could not look more Scottish, even had a very Scottish name. My Grandfather was acknowledged as a "half-breed" ( actually Mohawk, French, England, Dutch, maybe more), but looked very Native American, kind of like a skinny Sitting Bull.
I am especially fascinated by the totally unexpected Yakut part of my ancestry.
Growing up in a small logging town in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, I was taught that a mixed person was someone who had a Norwegian father and a Swedish mother.
Just saying...
So I take it they still have morals where you are from.
MSR OW lmao get help 💀💀💀💀
Lol did only Norwegian and Swedish people live in the Pacific Northwest
Well yeah back then the population was mostly the descendants from earlier pioneers and european immigrants who traveled out west
You were taught incorrectly.
Well, I'm black indigenous/Irish and other European, and (mixed) Asian including Native American. I look very much similar to Rachel True or Kelis. My parents are both mixed, their parents and grandparents are mixed. My family is what is called MGM multiracial, and we've been mixing for at least the last 7 generations.
My mom side is mgm but always said blk as a basic social construct meaning light skin or darker and if not yt😅. M Dad side is just Brown and no recent mix, so he probably less than a 20% European which I would say is fair enough to not be considered mixed in today's time, since nobody is pure of course
Sharp divisions have to be made for some medications and #medical treatments because the races react different and it might be more difficult but life saving to categorize mixed people properly.
@Alexnder90 F That race lines are useful in medicine is a fact. Certain clusters of ethnicities can for example take eachother's blood better than other clusters. Race as we commonly know it is largely just a social construct, true, but certain parts of it are actually true.
@@Timbo5000 what is constructed about race? group selection has existed since time immorial. Races will evolve to exist as a act of nature.
@Alexnder90 F If you put it that way then yeah I agree. Ethnicities are a much better point of reference for medical issues, as that more specifically refers to the specific genetic mix we are instead of the more broad and diffuse term of "race". Skin colour and such factors are absolutely meaningless.
@@Tomas-ml9nv Race is a vastly outdated concept that dates back to late 17th century theories on how to divide and categorise humanity. In those times, people mostly focused on visual (and social) differences rather than actual meaningful differences in genes.
Race, insofar it divides humans along the lines of "black" and "white", is largely no more than a construct.
It makes absolutely no sense to group West African ethnicities and Australoid Aboriginals together as "black", even though they are completely different ethnicities with different genes, different history, different culture and an altogether separate identity. They share nothing but their skin colour.
The only correct way of distinguishing between peoples is ethnicity. So genes, but also culture. Anything that goes beyond the genes is not founded in science and therefore nothing other than a social construct made up to divide humanity along certain lines. It's not in line with reality insofar it isn't based on scientific knowledge on genes.
In short: the common usage of "race" is vastly outdated and way more complex and nuanced than just "white"/"black" or European/African/etc.
@@Timbo5000 it's much more complicated than we say it is though. Certain groups genetically cluster but by that we mean like Spaniards cluster with Italians, chinese cluster with mongols, japanese cluster with no one because they refuse to mix and think they're better than everybody, Filipinos cluster with Malaysians and Ethiopians cluster with yemenites. Defined racial lines are still hard to draw though
I'm Brazilian
i have a little bit of everything
The Chinese "dialects" are a lot more divergent than a lot of the other linguistic classifications mentioned - like, a Syrian and a Moroccan might have a bit of trouble conversing, but some Chinese dialects are full on mutually unintelligible. I don't know enough specifics to draw an exact analogy, but some Chinese dialects have a relationship more comparable to Arabic and Hebrew than to Syrian and Moroccan Arabic in terms of deviation.
It’s a dialectal continuum for the most part so Southwestern Mandarin is more intelligible with New Xiang than it is to Northeastern Mandarin and Hakka spoken in Guangdong is more phonologically similar to Yue than the other Hakka varieties which are closer to Gan.
@@haruzanfuucha Yes, but that kind of situation is more comparable to, say, the historical Romance language family, than to the Arabic dialects. Less so in modern times, as national languages have become the norm, but a few centuries ago, when different European countries had more internal linguistic diversity, you'd see more of a continuum moving from Italy into France, France into Spain, and Spain into Portugal. Most acknowledge these as different "Romance Languages", rather than "Romance Dialects", despite there having historically been a continuum between them. The old saying 'A language is a dialect with an army and a navy" seems relevant here.
i’m Tuareg i could pass as Moroccan or Egyptian and i’d love to do a dna test to know my admixture
Being South Indian🇮🇳🌴🥥, I'M MIXED ASF😭
Before people can be classified as mixed race you have to decide what you mean by race. Do you start with 3 races, 10, 100? People disagree on how many races there are, what to call them and who belongs in which race category. There is no test for a person's race. You are to another person whatever that other person thinks you are. Winston Churchill believe the Irish and English were two different races but most people today would think that's silly.
I only see the 2 primary races being Sub Saharan Africa and Eurasian (including Australian Aboriginal and Native American). Everything outside that is just varying phenotype and genotype that has no clear boundary from 1 to another aside from the labels various cultures will give them.
@@douche8980 The labels cultures give them is all race actually is. Science has found that there is greater genetic variety within each so called "race" than there is between "races".
@@kindnessfirst9670 I wanted to fully understand the larger human family tree. Is it true that All Eurasians share a closer common ancestors than do the common ancestors either between all of us and the common ancestors of all indigenous African groups on addition to the common ancestor all humans share OR is there too much overlap to even drawn any connection to certain people groups beyond the scope of all of us being human?
TL;DR: As an ethnically ambiguous eurafrasian latino, people associate me at first glance with people they relate most with due to the aura they get. Mostly I get central America, North Africa, or south American.
Hello. I'm a latino of European (German+Italian+Welsh= 52%) African (Maasai+Nigerian+Sierra Leone=40%)&Caribbean/South American(Barbadian+Peruvian=8%) with fair skin, wavy hair, and ambiguous features. The percentages come from the recent ancestry stats of my DNA test.
Looking at the %ancestry chart, my percentage most closely resembles Brazilian Pardo, (55% Euro, 25% African, 15% Indigenous, 5% MENA), with more African.
I'm sitting in holding with other multiethnic people when a woman I chat up identifying as Sephardic Sicilian singles me out as "one of her people." I believe it wasn't appearance but that I knew of the centuries of discrimination Sicilians faced at the hands of Italians.
Most Latino strangers speak to me in Spanish. Most African Americans think I'm other, North African, or mixed African American. Recently when I told some AA I'm 25% Nigerian, they said, "no you don't look African American - you look Egyptian, or Madagascan."
Earlier in that group I explained that appearance is not always an indicator of ethnicity, when one guy eavesdropping identified as a Dominican Republic Afro Latino. He told us because he appears mostly African American, he'd overhear fairer Latinos talk about him in Spanish and delightfully shock them in his colorfully fast Spanish. I envy that guy.
Then you have my friend I met in uni as, after a pickup basketball game, I asked them where he's from, and he answers in a Spanish accent, "I'm from Puerto Rico." t turns out he was born in Puerto Rico to two ethnically Indian (South Asian) parents who relocated to PR for post graduate work. Until recently he always thought I was "black" or Afro-Latino, which informs the culture he grew up in and the people he felt closest to in his home country.
An African American girl was surprised to learn I am not black - then guessed I am Ethiopian. This says something about the culture she's used to being around. Because then I am mistaken for Egyptian by an Iraqi woman and Ethiopian by a Georgian (W. Asia) Israeli lady in the same day. Iranian by Iranians, and a Fijan asked me if I was Fijan. I get Guatemalan from Central Americans the most, and a couple Mexicans mistook me for Belizean. An Ecuadorian mistook me for middle eastern, while a Turkish girl guessed Middle Eastern.
I think that - in my case - when you look ethnically ambiguous or ethnically fluid, strangers in the US- are more open to accepting the ethnicity you identify as. In my case, foreigners in the US - usually assume me to have the nationality of a person they relate most with, of whom I most resemble to them.
I really like this channel but don’t even want to look at the comments anymore, it’s really sad to see how people believe other races are lesser when we are all just the same: human.

Only hazaras are turco-mongols also some tribes in the history
PG trojka The Turks have nothing to do with the Mongols. and Turks are not mongoloid.
the Turks are of the Turanid race. in other words, the Ural-Altaic race. Turks have been in Asia, Caucasus, Anatolia and Europe for thousands of years.
As the Turks are spread over a wide area depending on geography and climate, there are blonde and colourful eyes among them, as well as brunettes.
Prof.Dr. Laszlo Rasonyi (Hungarian Turcologist):
"Turkishness is connected to the Europid/Caucasoid race within three major racial families (Europid , Mongolid, Negrid). In the northern part of the Europid group, there are Teuto -Nordicus, Dalo-Nordicus and Eastern Baltic breeds with light hair and light skin (low pigment); in the middle, in the Central Asian section, brown Alpine, Dinarid and TURANID breeds; in the southern section, there are Mediterranen, Taurid and Indid breeds with dark hair, dark skin and black eyes.
William Montgomery McGovern (Northwestern Univ. prof. anthropologist and journalist),The early empires of Cental Asia, 1939
:
“The hair of Turks is wavy unlike the hair of Mongols, and the Turks are not as splayed-faced as the Mongols. The race of Turks belongs to a race that anthropologists call ‘Turani’.”
Lajos Bartucz, A Magyar Ember Bp.1938. 414-417
“In terms of propagation, the Turanid race can compete with all other races. Starting in Siberia, it is introduced into Central Europe, surpassing Russia, and even as far as France. We can find this race more or less everywhere, starting from the north to India, Iran and the Balkans. Among the ancient Huns, Avars, Bulgarians, Uyghurs, Hungarians, Pechenegs, Kumans, and various other Turkic-Tatar tribes who participated later, the largest population was the people of the Turanid race, both in number and effectiveness.

Please read. I need an answer to this. My 23and me results. Approx 80 percent West Asian (Iran). Aprrox 20 percent Indian. My family has been living in India since the 10th century. However, in my religion(zoroastrianism), you can only breed with other Zoroastrians (original people of Persia). This explains the huge Persian percentage. However there was obviously some admixture in 8 or so centuriess with Indians. Can I consider myself mixed race. Culturally I am definitely Desi(Indian) but genetically i am Persian.
Also, Iranians are technically "white" on the US consesus and Indians are "Asians" so two separate races.
INDIANS AREN'T A RACE❗ WITHIN INDIA ALONE EVERYONE IS MIXED TO AN EXTENT
so cool to see people still practice zoroastrianism
Best show yet! Truly excellent.

That is the wrong click you're doing btw in "Xhosa". I know there's lots of other words you don't pronounce as in they're origin languages, but I thought I should mention it since you're trying.
EDIT: THE FOLLOWING TEXT MAY INCLUDE A MISHEARING OF YOUR PRONUNCIATION. YOU MAY HAVE SAID "XOSA" RATHER THAN "COSA". I'M NOT AS GOOD AT DISTINGUISHING THESE THINGS IN RECORDINGS AS I THOUGHT.
What you're doing now would probably be spelled "Cosa" with the "c" probably being called a "plain dental click" (although I suspect a more accurate description of you're pronunciation would be "affricated palatal click"). This is done with the center of the top of your tounge, near the front of your mouth. To make the "x" sound you need to do a similar movement (i.e., touching the tongue to the gums then pulling back*) with the sides of your tongue (or the top of the sides) further back in your mouth.** Mastering this should enable you to say "Xosa".
Also, the "h" in "Xhosa" must be pronounced. Technically, this is "aspiration"*** on the click, but it can also be thought of as a short "h" sound without any real difference in pronunciation.
*Actually, there are sort of 3 parts to pronouncing a click (or "lingual ingressive stop/plosive"). (Steps 1 and 2 actually happen at the same time.)
(1) there must be a closure in the back of the mouth, stopping air from moving back down your throat or up your nose. In "Xhosa" I believe this is usually done with the back of the tongue against the gums, similar to the "k" sound (or rather lack of sound) at the end of "sick", if you don't finish the "k". (If you finish the "k", the last sound you will hear the sound of this stop being blown threw by a burst of air, the familiar "k" sound.) Since you made one click, you obviously know how to do this even if you don't realize you're doing it.
(2) There must be a closure in the front of the the mouth, preventing air from escaping out the mouth. This, combined with step 1, seals in a little bubble of air. In both the "c" sound you made and the "x" sound in "Xhosa", this front closure is made with the front of the toungue. In fact, you can make it exactly the same way.
(3) Thus, the only important difference (other than the "h") between the click you made and the correct one is the last step. In this step, the front closure is pulled back, making the air bubble smaller in volume and thus higher in air-pressure, which then naturally causes the air to blast open the seal between the tongue and the gums and escape, creating the "click" sound. In the Xhosa "c" sound, the center/tip of the tongue pulls back, while the sides stay more or less in place. In the Xhosa "x" sound, the center/tip of the tongue stays in place while the sides of the tongue pull back.
**The easiest click for you to make with the side of your tongue may be a sharp popping sound (almost like knocking on wood). This sound is made in a very similar way to the "x" sound, but is not used in Southern African languages. The sound should instead be be a soft, saliva-y, "affricated" click made with the root of the tongue pulked further back.
***Aspiration is very common in English with the "p", "t" and "k" sounds. It is the puff of air that occurs after the first consonant in the words "pill", "till", and "kill", but not in the words "spill", "still", and "skill".

Most of us aren't mixed race. Most african americans are more than 75% sub-saharan african.
Some people are mixed Ethnicity more so than mixed race. I'm mixed race due to my parents how ever a lot of Europeans and Africans have different ethnicities that make them up. Genetics is a great thing to know.
I’m predominantly Germanic (62.5% German; 25% Norwegian), with the 12.5% remaining being Italian.
I don't think this necessarily took off "after the 1960's". That's when I was born (1/4 Native American, rest european) and I ran into a lot of kids growing up who were 1/4 something. That means their parents were already roughly 1/2 more or less from the 1930s and 1940s. My family started mixing in the mid 1800s - we can actually document thanks to records kept at the time. So it was a lot more complicated than one person married another. it was their kids marrying others who were 1/2 or 3/4 or all then their kids doing the same. Basically, the idea of 1/2 and 1/4 or whatever is never a straight "1/2" or "1/4" but the forms we fill out use that. Can't blame them, no point going into absolute detail unless you're a geneologist, lol.
