Can white parents give birth to black babies?
Answer:
Your friend is wrong. There is no way to give birth to a black baby without having some blood relative with a black heritage in your family. The farther back the ancestor, the more dilute it is.
no unless both parents were black or black history i think you are right
your friend is absolutely wrong. the only people who can give birth to a seemingly different ethnicity of children are black people. white people don't posses the melanin to do so. black people do. sorry!
she is wrong
its called genetics tell her to go do some more research.
it is technically possible, although the key word is "pure". in order for it to happen, both parents would have to posess dark skin genes from somewhere in their genetic pasts. but it can be kinda far back, and they may not know that they carry those genes.
I know it is possible for two black parents to give birth to a white baby because of a rare skin disease. I shouln't use disease because it is only the pigment in our skin that makes our color so I assume if two black people can have a white child then the same goes for two white people having a black baby!
if she has black genes in her history they could
very very very rarely, like almost unheard of.. IF there is a black ansetor
only on tv...jerry springer show..dumb people believe that`s possible, but actually the mom had an afair with black dude
I saw this on Inside Edition or something. Two white parents had a black daughter.
What do you mean by "pure white" though? More than likely, I think the parents probably looked caucasian and at least one of them had black genes which showed up in their child's skin. It's pretty rare to find anyone that is "pure any race."
I know a Native American couple that have a daughter with blue eyes. So, I tend to think it is possible.
Genetic mutation aside (and I'm not actually sure of the possiblity or chances of even that), if two parents with entirely white lineage pop out a black (not just dark-complexion) baby, it means mom was screwing around and it's not dad's baby.
Seemingly possible.
"Long before science learned to meddle with genes, there was Sandra Laing. She entered the world in 1955, a beautiful baby by all accounts, who could be expected to grow up in a close-knit family amid mines of gold and forests of pine. At the first sight of Sandra no one, not the nurse, her mother, father or neighbours would admit the obvious. Nature had played a trick. Abraham and Sannie Laing were white, their parents, grandparents and great grandparents were white, yet their daughter was dark. By a biological quirk, the pigment of an unknown black ancestor had lain dormant for generations and manifested in Sandra."

A rather tragic story, given the apartheid-era South Africa setting...
This is interesting:
"Remee, who weighed 5lb 15oz, was blonde and fair skinned. Her sister Kian, born a minute later weighing 6lb, was black. ..
Both Kylie and her partner Remi Horder, 17, are of mixed race. Their mothers are both white and their fathers are black.
According to the Multiple Births Foundation, baby Kian must have inherited the black genes from both sides of the family, whilst Remee inherited the white ones."

There's also a story about black babies being born to white parents thanks to a mix-up at an IVF clinic, but I can only find it on a pro-life crackpot site, so the reporting isn't exactly reliable. (If searching -- beware crackpot racist sites that'll come up...)
Two white people give birth to a white baby. Unless there is a mix up in the birth room. If they have any other color in there family then it is possible to have a black baby.
No, because they don't have any 'black' genes, unless any of them isn't really pure.
