Is Zendaya mixed rather than black?

Zendaya Coleman identifies as black, same as Barack Obama, but as a European I feel a bit disappointed that these people are effectively denying their European ancestry which for both of them represents about half of their ancestors.

Do you think this is appropriate? Are Americans still implicitly applying the "one drop rule" by which one drop of "black blood" makes you black? How can they stick to a rule from times of slavery?
