If you think about it, Africans are the real "pure blooded" people, because they didn't interbreed with the Neanderthals like Europeans did after migrating out of Africa. (lemmy.world)

Neanderthals originally came from Africa too, they didn't spontaneously generate in Europe. There's no pure blooded people, we are products of the places our ancestors lived based upon evolutionary and social pressures.

Maybe, but studies have shown that Africans don't have any Neanderthal DNA.
