The match between Peter Jackson and James Corbett in 1891 was significant at the time for being a clash between a white and a black boxer. In 1897 in the United States, a professional match between Jack Johnson and Charley Brooks was significant for the same reason.

Where is the proof that president Andrew Jackson was half black?

There wouldn't be any. Andrew Jackson was not half black. His father was of black heritage, meaning his ancestors came from a race considered black by the people of the United States. Andrew Jackson had a brother who was of a much darker complexion than other members of his immediate family. In the U.S., you are considered black if you have one drop of black blood in you. Take Barack Obama for example: he is half black (his father) and half white (his mother). He is considered black because of his paternal line. However, he was raised in a white home with white values. Saying he is the first black president in the US is misleading. He is the first half black president who acknowledges his black half. Jackson was also a slave owner, owning up to 300 slaves during his life. If he was black, or even half black, this would not have been possible.


Is black and white a shade or a color?

Yes and no. Black is the presence of all colors and white is the absence of all colors. If something appears black it is because the surface is reflecting all colors. If is appears white it is because it is absorbing all the colors. The whole black is a color thing has been going on for so many years, but in reality both black and white are because they both absorb all colors and is the presence of colors.
