Wikipedia says that she was born in Cape Town, South Africa. I had no idea she was from there, but if she moved to the United States, would she technically be an American of African descent?

^ they're both South African, and if they received US citizenship, they'd be South African-American like someone said, but African-Americans are black people with US citizenship

The African doesn't refer to Africa, it refers to skin color.

White Africans don't count as African because of their colonial ancestry.

Or that's what seems to be the case to me. Am I wrong?

how many times does this question get asked? african americans are specifically americans of african descent who share a culture and history. a nigerian who immigrates to the US is nigerian american, not african american

Idk if people just play dumb or if they're actually dumb, cause this is something that can easily be found by googling but keeps getting posted as if it's a loophole that was just discovered where a white dude of boer or english descent from south africa might be considered african american

LOL, Ill be sure to let my half Dominican son know Ive never seen a Latina before, papi

If you think Belle Delphine looks Latina you are a straight up clown. Just because I said she is a gringa, which she is, doesnt mean all Latinos are brown, get over yourself.

Never heard of her, so I checked (and she is dope). She totally has Hispanic features (which is NOT the same thing as skin color). Belle Delphine looks like a prototypical basic white chick.

I'm not saying she doesn't look like a basic white girl. But if you said she was Latina, I could believe it as well, especially when her hair is black or brown.
