Question

Of what color generally are the children of a mulatto and a white?

Answer 1

they usually light skinned, like a light caramel color, think brianna off of real world hollywood or tisha campbell

Answer 2

Light tan.

Answer 3

Mel B is of mixed race

Answer 4

Like a slightly tanned European usually. Most quadroons (old word!) can't be told apart form a European. Ryan Giggs the British footballer is an example. They'll usually have dark curly hair,dark eyes, nice lips and stronger cheekbones, but nothing that would be unusual in a European.

You can get them totally blond and blue eyed though, or with the same colouring as their mulatto parent. Genetics is very much a case of pot luck. I've seen a half black girl with skin like snow (all Nigerian dad, how that happened I don't know).

Answer 5

A Griff was the old term for a person who was 1/4 African American.  And they could legally be sold into slavery despite the lightness of their skin.

Answer 6

Usually just a lighter shade of mulatto...
