I've never created a post or even replied to any but I was compelled to after reading your comment. Far starters, I must thank you for giving readers clarification as to Brianna's racial composition however factual or fictitious your "truth" may prove to be. My issue, however, is with your mis-educating the public with the historically and scientifically inaccurate opinion that "two black people do not born almost white looking black people".
All I'm going to say is know your history and study up some more on genetics and gene regression. The same forces in nature that allow brown eyed people to produce blue eyed offspring; or the twins of an interracial couple to have children - each one physically identifying with a singular parent instead of a hybrid of physical characteristics; this same "
unexplained phenomena" allows two darker skinned african-americans to produce a fair skinned child (with no dna test required).
Yes, I agree that people all over the world are mixed. We are no longer homogenous cultures sharing air and space. We are blending complexions and cultures. However when it comes to not only african-americans but all people of color and the physical appearance of their offspring the ONLY truth in the matter is that you'll never know what you're gonna get.
A good article to start off with can be found here:

Happy re-educating.
Stay Blessed,
