You shouldn't. Consider the CSI Miami episode Double Jeopardy:
Quote:Horatio confronts Stephen with the new evidence, but Stephen knows he can't be tried twice for the same crime, and angrily tells Horatio that Melissa was no angel. Bothered by the comment, Horatio sends Ryan to look at Stephen's laptop, which the lab still has from the trial, and discovers a bunch of Nazi propaganda. Stephen was a racist, and had no idea when he married Melissa that his new wife was half-black.
He marries a woman and later finds out she's black. No, he's not blind. His wife is in no visible way black - but she had a black ancestor, so she's black. WTF?
I have 2% subSaharan African DNA. I can choose to be black, apparently.
