1/4... Otherwise if people could claim 1/76ths of their ancestry then I'm a Negrito!

That's probably a little too much to neglect.

A quadroon still looks "black" just to give an example.

There is one exception for me, though... If a person was 1/16 German but, raised German then he can claim to be German.

What's his other 15/16?

If it's Austrian or even Danish he's all good, but if it's Ghanaian it's a little weird.
