Red bone - what does it mean?

Redbone had various meanings starting back in the 1800s but most implied was a race mixture. The racial mix is usually referred to as Tri-racial or more and may be any combination of the following: Native American, European, Asians, or Portuguese, Spanish, Turk, and African sub-groups. Thus generating lighter skin.

Red bone - meaning

A Red Bone is a light skinned black female. They are usually just a little bit darker than Yellow Bones( which are the lightest of black females and usually mixed with white, something silimar, or they are extra light due to having mixed race in their family tree) . No it has nuthin to do with being thick( as seen in some definitions) but is often used along with the word thick if a guy/person is discribing that body type as well

In Louisiana I hear they got a whole hella lot of Red Bones and Yellow Bones around there because there be alot of Creoles down there.

Red bone

After extensive research I found that the term red bone refers to people who are tri- racial, and who have ancestry that is white, black, and native- american.
This mix usually results in people with brown skin with reddish undertones.

Ignorant person: That girl is a red bone.
Educated person: No, she is not she is mixed with only white and black and is too fair skinned.
