Well, in point of fact, Walter White was nearly lynched on one occasion when it became clear he was black. But also, there's a whole literature on "passing" that deals explicitly with how "blackness" for people on the boundaries is very much a matter of self-identification. — PolitiTweet.org

Is it really so simple, though? Was the former head of the NAACP Walter White not a “black” American in your view?… https://t.co/qZEdlyaCJf

@thomaschattwill Walter White is a man of African descent and black cultural background who had the option of identifying as white but chose to identify as black because of his connection and commitment to that background. https://t.co/OSnHZETQsh — PolitiTweet.org

This includes people on the boundaries, i.e., people who can "pass", whose African ancestry isn't visible in Africa… https://t.co/pAteHaTMfb
