Could Makaziwe Mandela pass as a Colombian/Venezuelan Zambo?

[Tooting Carmen]

I reckon she can. Here she is: http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?99340-Classify-Makaziwe-Mandela

Yes. The Khoisan influence does it.

isnt zambo 50/50? she doesnt look 50% amerindian to me

[Tooting Carmen]

Anyone else?

Not necessarily. It just means a Black-Amerindian hybrid, and the respective percentages can be anything.

Yes and not. Not that much, really. She he has a higher SSA contribution (and I am not sure is she is probably 100% SSA, of the South African variety, which are not as black pigmented as Africans from the African Congo) than an average Venezuelan Zambo.

Not saying, that there are not some Venezuelan zambos with the same coloring as her (the ones with more SSA influence than average, compared to other Venezuelan zambos), but Venezuelan zambos have west African SSA influence, which is different from her SSA influence, and the most average Venezuelan zambos are lighter than her, because of their significant Amerindian influence, which is something that she lacks.

[KidMulat]

Yes she does pass as someone with African and NA ancestry but you also have to remember there are no non-khoisan influenced South African blacks.

Remember that term Kafrid? It just meant Bantu with varying degrees of Khoisan/Nilotic/Cushitic influence for the whole east and South Africa

[Iroczor]

She could probably pass for a garifuna

[Mn The Loki TA Son]

A little but not so much, because of the reasons already said here by cmv and alnortedelsur. The only thing I see that shares similar to a Colombian/Venezuelan Zambo is the region of the eyes a bit. So not so much.

Nope.

[CostaRicaBall]

Nope. She has khoisan influence of course (that race is the mother of the east asian/amerindian) but has different contribution to american zambos as well. That make that she has a large face while those zambos have a round face.

Hmm, I incline towards no.

Hmm, I incline towards no.

How come?

[Mixdguy17]

What alnorte said was pretty good.

She wouldnt really stand out too much if she went, but her ssa input is kind of different from the standard pred SSA venezuelans or Zambos, aswell as she doesnt really look zamba but mostly black, if anything she would only really look as minorly amerindian influenced but zambos still look a bit different still (Like Chavez and Miguel (American Singer), so yes and no, she would be atypical. Her dad is one of my heroes.
