en By the definition accepted in the United States, any person with even a small amount of Negro Blood... is a Negro. Logically, it would be exactly as justifiable to say that any person with even a small amount of white blood is white. Why do they say one rather than the other?

Science seeks only the most generally useful systems of classification; these it regards for the time being, until more useful classifications are invented, as true.
