I'm not quite certain what you mean.
. I am an african by birth. That is to say, I was born in Africa, as were both my parents. My heritage and genealogy is of mixed european descent. (some of my ancestors were German, some British, some French etc.) my culture is based in South Africa. Although many cultures co-exist side by side here so one cannot say that there is a distinct 'South African' culture. But I definitely do not follow a European culture.
. I hope this clears things up for you.

I think it is so sad that people have to explain 'what' they are...Because you are from a predominantly Black nation, those who don't understand are going to wonder about the color of your skin.
Anyway..there are many here in Opera that are from Africa, and none have looked the same YET!
Just tell them you are a white African.

But the choices, "African" (everyone could be)
"coloured" (everyone could be)
It is laughable.

I don't believe in 'accidents' my self. I believe in something that can best be described in english as fate. (aka serendipity)

For those not acquainted with 16-finger counting, you pronounce this as 2-F, 2-F etc.

Many 'indians' here in South Africa have distinctly european features and pale skin. At a glance, they could easily be mistaken for 'white' or 'coloured'.
But, ultimately, I'm an African. Specifically, I'm a South African. That is also what it says in my ID book.

You know, before the Opera writing contest, I didn't know a single person from South Africa. Now I can't stop hearing about it!
Is it the nexus of the universe?!
