What is the percentage of ancestry of a specific racial group is needed in order to be considered a part of that group?

I care about you, but do you care about me?
For example: Can a man with 62% general European ancestry be considered white? Or a man with 53% general African ancestry be considered black?

Depends on what the rest of that ancestry is
Someone who is 62% European and 38% Armenian is white but someone who is 62% European and 38% Sub-Saharran African is not.

Ok, but how much European/African DNA does he need in order to be considered a part of that group? 75%, 85%? After all, white Americans are mocked if they claim to be Native American just because they have 5% ancestryShow quoted text
