In my eyes, if you have white skin, then you are white. Period. Cultural constructs and non-European origin (no matter how big or small) mean nothing, especially when there are non-Euros that are fairer than actual Europeans living in Europe. "Whiteness" is such an abstract concept when it doesn't need to be, and it's idiotic.
White is about status, at least in the Western world.

white: a caucasoid, fair skinned

oriental/yellow: a mongoloid, fair skinned

black: a negroid, dark skinned

brown: a caucasoid, brown/dark skinned

I think that covers everything.
Your brown and black contradict each other.
