I read a question about why people use hyphenated americans. DO I NEED TO REMIND PEOPLE THAT MAINSTREAM AMERICA DID NOT ACCEPT, ASIANS, BLACKS, AFRICANS, LATINOS, NATIVE AMERICANS, OR MIDDLE EASTERNERS AS AMERICANS? American called asians gooks, blacks *****, coloured, n*gger, latino spics, wetbackers, natives redskins, and middle easterners arab n*ggers. America constantly pointed out that we were anything but Americans! The hyphenated american was created when America pushed us aside and we formed our own identities.
P.S. Do people know the history of things before they spout off their mouths about stuff?
