Is Barack Obama 'Black'

Answer 1

Yes and no. Actually, Barack Obama is biracial. His mother was white, and his father was black. Thus, he is half-black; but in America, historically, if a person looked black, they were considered black. Mr. Obama has never denied the white side of his family, but he also identifies with his black heritage.

Answer 2

Barack Obama is biracial. His mother was Caucasian and his father was an immigrant from Kenya. He considers himself an African-American because of the one-drop rule in the United States.

Answer 3

His ancestry is 50% African (on his father's side) and 50% European (on his mother's side).
