Your face is a combination of hundreds of people.
Who were in love at some point."

Would that it were always so.
However, anyone who’s ever watched Dr. Henry Louis Gates’ superb TV series “Finding Your Roots” knows that nearly all African-Americans (and some others) are descended from enslaved Black women who were raped by their owners in order to produce more chattel (and wealth) for their owners.
How do I know this? Because in the course of his genealogical research, DH discovered one such enslaved child was his great-great-grandfather. And we have a copy of the newspaper clipping reporting how that man’s son (DH’s great-grandfather) was beaten and shot (i.e., lynched) and left for dead.
Luckily, he survived his wounds. But unsurprisingly, he soon headed north, where he “passed.” -
WELL I JUST LOVE THIS THOUGHT!!
