April was originally conceived as an Asian woman. Laird drew her as white. Eastman probably thought of her as biracial (half white half black) like his girlfriend of the time (and future ex wife) who the character was named after.

April O'Neil's ethnicity shifted a lot from the beginning. Early TMNT fans will recall that they also turned Baxter Stockman from Black to Caucasian for the TV show. Personally, I don't think ethnicity is core to most of the TMNT characters outside of Splinter and Shredder.
