"Due to this myth that everyone is mixed, even black people in Brazil sometimes have difficulty seeing themselves as black," Ms Ribeiro explains. "Here, it's not only about where you came from, it's the way you look - so if you look white, you will be treated as white, even if your parents are black."
Whether she says you came from negro parents, or she says you look and are treated white.
Or even if you don't have negro parents, but claim you did, but identify as negro, but are treated white.
Either way, you're a negro.
If you think you're a negro, trust me, you are.
In Brazil, either way, Shaun King is a negro.
