When a black man and a white woman have a child, does the child become white? If a white man and a black woman have a child, does the child become black?

It’s stupid AF. lol.
No! Genetics are a roll of the dice.
Their kids look like this:
These kids are neither White/Black, they’re them, mixed/biracial/whatever you’d like to label it. They are uniquely them.
Other examples.
On the flip side, Serena Williams and her husband, Alexis Kerry Ohanian, their children (she had another baby) are lighter in skin tone:

Plus, less progressive societies usually, incorrectly, believe the man has the stronger genes. So this isn’t even a widely held belief. A common belief is that the father decides the race, which is stupid.
Why would that make sense to you?
Regardless, just love the kids.
Clearly, this is a mixed bag. You never know what you will get.
Seal is a Black man and had children with his ex. Heidi Klum, a White woman.
