How weird is this?
Filling out a survey online...and it asks for ethnicity. So....I was looking through...finding mine. And each ethnicity is expanded..and has different geographic locations. Then you get to "White"....and no Norwegian, German, French, English, Irish, Hugarian, Austrian, Swiss you name it....nothing? how come? If in this world we claim it's becoming a bit fair each day...I don't think so. By putting Just White, we are sectioning people still out by color. Hello White is a color..the rest are ethnicities! Same with Black...I say black, I don't think ethnicity. It's a damn color again. Ethnicity means the country you come from...not a frikkin color. Gimme a break!

yeah i do not get that either... you would think they would change how we view that by now. just shows change is slow or nothing at all.
That's sad that you get tied up in those definition of race and how someone looks on the outside. Oh well, I have it easy, I'm black. I'm so black I'm blackalicious! Woohaa!
