We get half our nuclear DNA from each parent. *All* of our mitochondrial DNA comes from our mother. The only mitochondria in the sperm are in the tail, which is broken off when the sperm enters the egg.
So why, for instance, are Obama, who has a white mother, and Tiger Woods, who has an Asian mother, considered black? Less than half their DNA comes from the black parent. How much is this influenced by patriarchy, and "God the Father" religions?
I don't give thumbs down.
