No need for the /pol/ snark. It is universally known that he was a squadron of Haitian descent. This isn't a "Beefoven was a Moor n sheeit" type thing. His father was a mulatto who was famous as a general in the Revolution.

In fact, Dumas' black heritage what's the source of his famous retort to someone calling his grandfather a monkey.

>african american
>AMERICAN

WE

>a squadron
turn off autocorrect, user

Race is only a social reality, so depends on what society we're talking about. Jim Crow era where "one drop" of black blood means you're legally black? How you identify? How he just looks?

For fucks sales just read Passing and grow up

Yes, Alexandre Dumas, the French writer, was African American.
