And how can you tell if a person is from Pakistan and not India or Bangladesh. And no, I am not a racist - it is a genuine open question.

What is a big element of American culture; an idea, action, shared characteristic, behavior, belief, value, opinion, action, etc. that is viewed as very American? Not necessarily uniquely American, just a large element of American culture.

I know African-Americans who are friends, and they are always making fun of how much blacker they are, and make fun of their name, i got a friend named Kapanga Mchombo and some of my black friends make fun of him. Why is this? They were African once, their ancestors

People, get a hold of yourselves!

I happened to stumble upon this category and I am just shocked by the number of race related questions. To make matters worse, most of these questions are damn right silly and ignorant.

Race is NOTHING more than a difference in pigmentation. It has been scientifically proven that we are between 98-99.5% equal, and we are spending all of this time asking silly questions about this very small difference in our DNA.

I would like to believe that most people are posting these questions to better understand their sister races, but I have a strong feeling that their true intention is to create drama and insult those races.

Humanity is doomed to fail!

Is the term "African-American" politically correct? Many "African-Americans" hate the term black, but they are often more nationalities or cultures than just African, such as French, Hispanic, or even Caucasian. So, which is the right term?

Also, is it appropriate to call them "black" or "African-American"? It is for an English paper and I can't figure it out and I have to present it and don't want to offend anyone.. Thanks ahead of time.

Why is it that anytime african american rappers make fun of white people calling them "trailer trash" or "cracker" it's okay. But when white people in the media say one thing related to black people that is negitive people act like it's the end of the world?

Does anyone know the saying Judge Marilyn Millian uses when she doesn't believe someone? I'm talking about the one that she says in Spanish then loosely translates it to something like, even you don't believe what you are saying. She says it is a phrase her grandmother used to use. I'd love it if you know the Spanish version and the English.

Before I start, I'm not against interracial relationships. I'm talking about one case where the woman has a very bad problem.

Okay, I know this white woman married to a Mexican guy with 3 mixed kids, but she always talks smack on how much she hates mexican/black girls and can yap on about that for days. Her 3 kids do not look white at all , they are extremly dark like the father (2 girls, 1 son) and she pretends that they're white and tells them that. I've had a conversation with one of the daughters and she said her mother has no understanding of how she's perceived by people because she's dark, but she refuses to listen to anything the girl has to say and starts yelling at the girls about how they're white, not dark.

Why would you even get in an interracial relationship if you were racist against those not your color? It makes no sense to me and her daughters/son are obviously distancing themselves from her because of her attitude and It's really bothering me

Once a week, I take my laundry, an elderly neighbor's laundry and drive down to pickup my son's laundry (works f/t + college student) and go to a local laundry mat owned by Mexican Family. The family lets it be known they only want Latinos using their business and are very rude to all non-Latinos. I thanked them in Spanish while leaving once and the next week they questioned me to see if I could really speak Spanish. So I spoke a little Spanish, apologized and explained in French Canadian that I spoke only French. Now they are not mean to me anymore because they perceive me as a non-American. When I finally told my son, he was upset and said that either I should have stood up to them or found another laundry. That my inauthenticity was part of the problem, not part of the solution. He asked that I use another laundry mat or not do his laundry anymore. I tried to explain that I simply found away to keep from being discriminated against. Is he right?

Throughout history, we tend to focus on when specific groups of people die. For example, the last civil war soldier, the last titanic survivor, in not too long the last living World War II veteran. Why don't we start thinking about when the last hippie will die? We'd have to determine if hippies can reproduce. Are children of hippies, hippies? or does the mental disease end with the parents?

Imagine there're no hippies.
It isn't hard to do.
