Someone can be mixed race and still look 100% white. Both my parents are Latino, as am I. My father is consistently mistaken for an Arab due to his skin color, so he's obviously dark. My mother and I both look like someone out of Scandinavia. It's perfectly reasonable for Ariel to be mixed race. Just as long as Triton himself isn't too dark, and Athena is introduced and is a light skinned mermaid.
