re: #249 HappyWarrior
Ever since my family got to the U.S, there’s been some form of “intermingling.” German marries Irish, Catholic marries Protestant, and in my brother’s case Anglo marries Hispanic. And I’m sure if my ancestors lived in a more connected world, they too would have itnermingled more. So called racial purity exists because a lot of our ancestors- not all of them stayed in the same place.
Thing is, there were slaves (spoils of war)
Even if they stayed in one place, they could still make babies with foreigners.
