I am wondering, is there anything like "one drop rule" in eg African black societies?
All people are black, is someone who has eg10% white blood considered "not full black" or even white?

Yes there is

They reject you if you have visible admixture. Its like "you're not black enough to hang with us". My grandmother is a light skinned black woman and they call her "white"
