    Colombian is a nationality, not a race. Do you know the specific ethnicity of your great great grandmother?

    Anyway, just considering that your Mom is Italian (racially White) and your Dad is racially Black, I would describe you as "Mulatto," which is a mix between Black and Caucasian.

    You're mixed, Love. Black, Italian, Colombian and probably a whole bunch of other cool ethnicities you don't even know about :) We're all mixed if you really think about it. Embrace it, love it, own it.

    Peace and Love <3

    you've some Polish history and some Haitian or African history, and what ever all something else of your ancestors were. it really is a genetics question, no longer kin tree, yet I wager you've an enticing kin tree to analyze.
