Sub-Saharan Africans don't show evidence of interbreeding with Neanderthals or Denisovans, but

they do show evidence of interbreeding with other lineages of archaic humans.

That means that we are ALL mutts, and we are all products of interbreeding with our more archaic cousins. Genetically speaking, none of us are "more" or "less" or superior or inferior. It's silly and dangerous to try to classify contemporary humans in that fashion. JMHO.
