if my great grandfather was of a mixed race, roughly what percentage of "black" am i?
i had some trouble wording the question, i feel extremely dumb asking this, and i hope not to offend anyone. but when people give their histories, theyve always got fractions or percentages to describe their heritage and i'm purely curious.
I've got no other african heritage from my family except from my great grandfather on my mom's side who was from Morocco and half black, half white. i was wondering if anyone could give me a rough estimate of basically how "black" i am solely in terms of racial geneology?
8 AnswersGenealogy9 years agoHow free was independent thought in Roman society?
in a paper i'm writing for an honors literature/composition class, i'm aiming to prove that the roman value of pursuing glory and devotion to duty is something that modern society has inherited from the romans. What i'm having trouble with is the other point that i'm want to make: romans ALL valued the pursuit of glory and devotion to duty (mostly because of government influence and control), whereas today, not everyone shares the exact same values because independent thought is very important to us all and we are allowed to have our own opinions.
So, to make a convincing argument, i need to prove that in comparison to today's level of individual thought in american society, free thought in roman society was not all that free.
Since this is only a guess, if anyone can find sources supporting or refuting the fact that independent thought was common or not common, it would be GREATLY appreciated.
