Take this example that could happen IRL: A half-Asian, half-black woman has a child with a white man. That child would be 2/4 white, 1/4 Asian, and 1/4 black (I'm sorry if I sound racist!). It wouldn't just be either Asian, black, or white. It would have features from all those races. Get what I mean?
