The site has a further explanation.

There is such discrimination in this country! /sarc

I would never have guessed that Catherine Bell was Black. I once heard her say she was.

Barack Obama idiot

Maybe it’s just me but it seems like the black women, (definitely not all) are getting prettier.

Michael Jackson dead

My real last name is black.

I was adopted at the age of seven.

I know what it is to be a disenfranchised black man.

My name was taken from me...

Rashida Jones is a hottie

In Puerto Rico or Brazil, most of these folks would be classified as “white.”

[MeshugeMikey]

I recognized two names on the list one being Maria Carey...and the other Carol Channing who I never would have guessed to be “black”

[workerbee]

And just what is "black" heritage? And WHO CARES?

How about 10 who have Austrian heritage?
Norwegian?
Pakistani?
Chilean?
French?
ARCTIC?

Some of those people I did know were partly of black descent. Carol Channing, I admit, is a surprise. And I did not know Rashida Jones’s mother was Peggy Lipton, what a cool mom to have. (Also did not know Peggy Lipton was Jewish - so this was a pretty informative post thank you for it!)

I must also say that several of these people could appear on another list: celebrities I’ve never heard of and even when you tell me who they are I still don’t know.

Most American blacks are only part black.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

It doesn’t matter because I have only heard of THREE of them.

[Lil Flower]

Well I am Scottish, Choctaw, and British.

Whoopity doo!

[smalltownslick]

I always heard whispers about Dinah Shore. Hard to believe but who knows.

One of the more unusual ones I heard when I was a teenager was someone telling me Dickey Lee’s father was black. Just like Dinah, he’s never talked about it (why should he?) but I find his nose interesting. But what does it matter?

“Tah-ray-suh” HEINZ-kerry said she was an African-American. Her family owns plantations in South-Africa.

[gaijin]

Adriana Lima BLACK…?

[hecticskeptic]

What a load of hooey... if we all trace our ancestry back to Adam and Even (and actually even more recently to Noah and his wife since everybody up to Noah’s family had either died or were destroyed in the Great Flood), this means that we are all related......

Don't forget Navin Johnson:

Why is it even an issue? Music performance and acting are areas where blacks do really well.
Can't get roles? Well, ask super-liberal Hollywood why they so rarely put blacks in leading roles.
