Documentary On Blacks & Race Stuns Audiences

[terry78]

Italians, Germans, etc. are all one monolithic group basically. They may have pride in their particular background, but if they do it's only a one day thing and they go back to being the average white person afterwards.

 

[Warhammer]

why do you ask? Aren't those the same groups that American whites come from?

Because some people say "I'm not white. My parents came from Holland."

 

[Memphis Slim]

Because some people say "I'm not white. My parents came from Holland."

The "color" designation is not really a valid issue. They are "caucasian".

When I see that, it reminds me so much of a girl that I knew named Emma.
She always said, "Why do they call people Caucasian? My family never came from Caucasia."

By the way, nice "Avvy" t:

Thank You.

I love your's, too.

Colts, all the way.

I think Family Guy and Drawn Together, are the only two shows that actually make good points about racism.

 

[AndThePickles]

Well, Caucasian is actually used quite incorrectly. I live in America and I am white but not technically Caucasian because all of my ancestors didn't originate in Europe. I don't like the term really.

So, now that you all have seen the actual definition, don't be so quick to call that girl a dumbass, because she technically wasn't completely wrong to say that.

Maybe it's just me, but this didn't seem to be a problem when I was growing up, as a lot of kids my age watched shows like reading rainbow.

Not to mention some of the biggest icons to kids at that time were black.

 

[Kaleb]

who is the last guy?

 

[Tobiaswins]

Believe it or not it WAS michael jackson, once apon a time.

 

[Kaleb]

but Micheal Jacksons white

 

[Warhammer]

Black didn't cut it.
























Kidding.

 

[heypapajinx]

[Kritish]

Italians are white.

 

[heypapajinx]

Italians are white.

no. that's why i said no, i DON'T classify Italians as white.

 

[Kaleb]

Italians are white.

thats debatable

 

[Memphis Slim]

no. that's why i said no, i DON'T classify Italians as white.

Then what are they? They ain't Asian.....They ain't negro......they ain't Semetic (i.e. middle-eastern).

The only thing left is Caucasian....(white).

Look dude. They are European. Just like the Germans, Swedes, Spanish, French, Greeks, British, Dutch and Polish. They are white people. What's wrong with that?? No one's putting white people down or anything....Geeez.

 

[Memphis Slim]

Italians are white.

They're technically "white", but they've gotta be the black people of white people haha. If you know what I mean.

No I don't. Just because there was some north African hankie pankie going on, that doesn't change a thing. Their blood lines did not deviate that much.

and if you're gonna use that logic, I guess I'm not black.....matter of fact there are no black people in this country. With all that the slave masters did to slave women with rape, we got a lot of mingled up bloodlines over here. That's why we're all different shades and hues. There ain't nearly as much deviation with Italians. Some, yes. But not as much.

We have a virtual rainbow........
