A question of fractions

I did it - just finished the test for the freelance job and submitted it for review. I feel satisfied that I've done my very best. If this is for me I will get it; if not, there is another opportunity out there for me.



Putting that aside, I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving. Where did the year go? Samantha came home an invitation to a Thanksgiving presentation by the 1st graders. They will be dressed as Pilgrims and Native Americans and will reenact the first Thanksgiving. So Sammie and I had a little chat that went like this...





Samantha: I want to dress like a Native American, because I'm half Native American!



Me: That's right, you are half Native American and half Black.



Samantha: I know that. (there's no fooling this girl)



She thinks for a bit and then points to her body.



Samantha: So, which half of me is Native American?





Good question.

We'll have to note that half and half make a whole (oops, or was it a hole like in your riddle of years gone by, Judes!).
