Nobody in my family is the same color, but the one thing we have in common is the fact that we all call ourselves black. In my family we joke about the beige to black hues, but your situation seems a little more serious. Honestly, I would call you black. The fact that your mother is so determined not to discuss it with you or call you Black suggests to me that that is what you are in her eyes atleast. I grew up in a house where black meant shades of grey, and I think that is also the way the world works, but this is your choice.
