yes... one-drop sittn a eedyat ting... so what's the lie? that charlotte was black? or that Elizabeth descended from her? si dis inna wan article;

During Queen Charlotte’s era slavery was prevalent and the anti-slavery campaign was growing. This may explain why Britons did not disclose the racial mix of the royal family at the time. Even though in 1952 the English royal family referred to Queen Elizabeth II's African bloodline as a justification for her coronation as head of the British Commonwealth of Nations. Queen Charlotte is the great-great-great grandmother of the present Queen Elizabeth II (Grandmother of Princes William and Harry) who still lives in the expanded Buckingham House, now Buckingham Palace.

Why do some many Jamaicans have such a hard time accepting their Blackness?
