Is he black ?

Google it. He's half black or at least has in his direct ancestry. Thats why he made his short film about his ethnicty; he had a hard time in Hollywood Becauae either he wasn't white enough or black enough or too mixed to 'fit' a role.

He's mixed, one part black and several other ethnicities. He doesnt look white tho. At most I'd say he looked 'white hispanic'.

I thought he was black and italian

You know what the real reason he had a hard time in hollywood? He can't act.

I don't get it... He looks white to me.

I have seen light-skin blacks. If not for the African hair, you may think that person is Hispanic.

He is a man of color who looks like everybody will in 100 years (if they get lucky) -- brown and beautiful.

I'm only in Show Biz by injection

If he grew his hair out, there really wouldn't be a question.

Well that's impossible since that short movie was the reason Spielberg hired him.
