The "How White Are You?" quiz is designed to offer a thoughtful exploration of your ancestral background. Understanding the cultural and historical influences that shape our identities is a deeply personal journey.

As you navigate through the quiz, you will reflect on your ethnic origins and explore how your ancestry might shape your experiences. It may even lead you to ask yourself, "Am I white?"—a question that goes beyond mere ancestry to encompass the diverse factors contributing to one’s sense of self. This quiz is not about categorization but rather an opportunity to better understand how culture and heritage Read morecontribute to who we are as individuals.

Disclaimer: This quiz is for informational and entertainment purposes only. It is important to note that identity is far more than ancestry, and no quiz can fully define or measure someone's personal sense of self. We respect all cultural backgrounds and aim to approach this topic with sensitivity and empathy.
