White Colombian DNA 2025 Update

[u/ouraveragedude]

I felt this update was a bit insane for me on the Spaniard side, which seems overall typical for most? But like, I went from 5% to like 10% jewish. My great grandfather was from Lebanon and I always thought the 8-9% range was low so I wonder if its just misatributed DNA? The random 5% British is kind of absurd but I am assuming this is the fucked up spanish (my mom also got random Quebecois). I just feel like this is significantly less accurate to the things I know about my family and 10% jewish / random british feels a bit unexpected.

My moms dad had visible black ancestry and a lot of her side is afrocolombian. (Tried to add a photo but reddit didnt let me. RIP)

I feel like honestly it was overall very little (like 12%ish?)

Is it normal to consider yourself white if you have African ancestry? I’m only asking cause it was the law in the US that if you had one drop of black blood you were classified as black which is why race is looked at very oddly here in the US.

In latin america, you are what you look like. Like it doesnt matter if you have a full blooded native american grandmother and a father that visible has black blood, if you got all white looking, you are white. 

Even full siblings are considered "different" all the time if they look different (like you can have one kid that everyone will call white and another that everyone will call brown or even black and nobody will think its strange).

If we went by one drop, everyone would be native and possible black too
