Negro prieto. los erús no forman una raza, porque no hay raza según han demostrado no pocos antropólogos; forman un grupo humano que tiene un modo cultural de vivir, como cualquier otro grupo humano tiene el suyo. Los erús o negros no son ninguna clase de gentes de "raza pura", según han creído y creen muchas gentes que no han actualizado sus conocimientos antropológicos. Nadie sabe de dónde exactamente es originario el hombre negro. Se le encuentra desde épocas remotísimas en el continente sin frío que eso quisieron decir los griegos con el nombre "Africa". En ese vasto territorio de 11.500,000 millas cuadradas o 29.78345 kilómetros cuadrados, se encuentran muchos pueblos y culturas que no son exactamente de negros, aunque es indudable que con ellos se mestizaron tanto, que la mentalidad de los bárbaros o extranjeros no pudo notar las diferencias y semejanzas y a todos los llamó negros, debiendo decir "africanos". Ser negro, o tener de negro en la herencia biológica o cultural, no es en modo alguno un defecto o minusvalía (el prejuicio sí es un defecto y una minusvalía). No es un defecto ni una minusvalía ser o tener de negros o sudaneses, porque ellos son tan seres humanos como cualquier otro grupo que hable con sonidos, agarre con las manos, camine derecho, con y sobre los pies, produzca pensamientos lógicos con el cerebro, corrija sus errores y tenga autopercepciones. Los negros, sus descendientes o ascendientes, aparecen en todo el sureste asiático, en India, en el Viejo Egipto, Mesopotamia y Caldea, en el poblamiento primitivo de Europa y últimamente en América, desde el sur de Norte América hasta Venezuela, comprendiendo todas las Antillas. Esto es lo que se llama el Fajón Negro de América; Cuba está de lleno en él, y todos los cubanos algo tenemos de esa nigricia del Fajón. Además del "erú" y del "eña dudu", se mencionan al "eña kukuá" o "negro colorado" y al "yebú" o negro colorado de pelo amarillo o rojizo con ojos pardos o claros. En estos cuatro tipos, el cabello es "gré gré". Con esa voz, nos informan, dicen los lucumíes guerefé. "pelo duro, propio de los erú". El cabello o "irú gregré", es corto, duro, grueso, ensortijado, abundante o escaso, de color negro mate, rubianco, rubio o rojizo como en los yebú, pueblo que trajeron a Cuba. El mestizaje de los pueblos clareados y rubicundos con los pueblos negros tiende hacia una disminución del pigmento melanínico en la descendencia, pero siempre queda "un algo" visible a simple ojeada, que anuncia el antecedente negroide del portador de los caracteres, independiente de que lo sepa o no, que lo oculte o le sea indiferente, que se ofenda o que comprenda que eso no lo demerita, etc... Ese algo visible está muy parlante en el "kukunkukú" (mulato prieto), en el "ákuamádé" (pardo adelantado), en el "dukundukú" (mulato definido) y en los distintos tipos de blanconazos. En cuanto al dukundukú o mulato definido, está repesentando el punto fronterizo entre el "erú y el oibó irú eni. El "dukundukú finalí" es el mulato chino, producto del cruzamiento de la africana erú con chinos. Hay que distinguir entre el achinamiento del negro y el del chino. Este tipo abunda en Cuba y tiene hasta en el comportamiento, características que lo señalan. Últimamente se nota el auge del cruzamiento de blanca cubana con chinos de nación, trayendo un nuevo tipo. A partir del "dukundukú" tenemos el "adabamá" o "mulato que pasa por blanco". Este tipo es abundantísimo. Tiene muchas variantes. En las estadísticas demográficas es, como en la vida social, "un mulato indefinido situado junto a los blancos", que lo son por europeos próximos a los pueblos rubios, velludos, rosados y narigudos. La concurrencia demográfica que tuvo lugar en toda América. y en escecial en Cuba, produjo una inmensa variedad de tipos, no estudiados a profundidad y extensión. En Cuba tenemos muchas variantes de "adabamás" que han adquirido adjetivaciones que los señalan, como son los morenos claros, pardos, trigueños, pintos, guayabús, guajamones, jabaos, mulatos rusos, mulaticos, mulatos pasaos, mulatos blanconazos, blancos sucios,(por el color indefinido), blancos renegríos. quemaos, capirros, malagazos, pajizos, tercerones y cuarterones. "Adam" es persona blanca que tiene ascendientes negros aunque ya no se le note a él. "Blanco que tiene de negro". Es mucho más "adelantado", dicen, que el "adabamá" y se confunde con los morenos claros de pelo negro lacio, ondeado o ensortijado como el del "asturiano de pelo corto" y el "mulato ruso eslavón" o el "italiano".
