Does anyone notice that their is an obvious beef between badkitty1 and I and JamaicanV and I. They have been posting bad stuff about me constantly because they are offended by my honesty. You see I could talk to whites openly about relaxers,weaves and other black on white relations. I get many disagreements from many blacks, which is find, but these two girls have really taken things personally and started some drama. Help, how do you think this drama could be resolved without me being a shadow of my self, close-minded a slave,timid a lier, fake,weaved up tacky, and ghetto. I am proud of who I am. I have the ability to communicate on a mature level with many races of people around the world about anything, freely,openly and honestly without changing who I am. As a result, many ghetto ,fake and silly black people hate on me and try to silence me and put me in their ghetto box. Blacks claim they keep it real but they don't. So anyway what do you think about this little drama issue.

I have seen a lot of people in this site asking questions about race an sometimes they divide people into white/caucasian, black, asian, latino, mexican, hispanic.
I mean if you are white is because your skin is white color, if you are black is because your skin in black color, if you are asian is because you were born in middle east or because your eyes look different but what does mean for these people being latin, mexican and hispanic?????? latins are green, mexicans are red and hispanics are purple or what?? why some people can't understand that being latin or mexican or hispanic is NOT a race!!! if you are latin, mexican or hispanic also you can be black, white, brunette, etc

I am beginning to feel VERY odd. I was born in South Korea but adopted into a white family. But I'm kind of fascinated with japanese culture. I can speak english and I've been trying to learn japanese, I can't speak korean. I know it's not good to get all mixed up with all of this ethnicity stuff but I sometimes feel like I should be trying to make myself want to learn more about korean culture or something... Is that weird?

There are no more full blooded races in any country. You cannot trace your heritage right back to its genesis therefore you are of mixed raced.

As an American whose gag reflex is stimulated at the mere sight or sound of that repugnant little troll who stole the presidency ( George W, Bush ) I am concerned that the world has been given the wrong impression of Americans by the on going string of evil directly attributable to the littlest warmonger. Does the rest of the world understand that in two very close elections ( the 1st of which he and his brother, the govenor of Florida, clearly stole ) less than 40% of the voting age population even cast their vote? Is it understood by that inferrence that no where near even half of Americans condone his villany? And most importantly, do europeans understand that the arrogant, self centered, and extremely intolerant American tourists usually come from our wealthiest class ( less than 1% of Americans ) and are thereby not a good indication of what Americans are really like?

I am doing a book illustration of Pocahontas, and I want it to be an accurate historical representation. I have read that she would have probably actually been topless (but this is a history book for homeschooled children so that will not be appropriate). I did also read that in the wintertime, she would have worn a "mantle of turkey feathers." I think that this will solve the topless issue. But my problem is knowing what an Algonquin mantle would look like...do they mean a cape? What would the neck and closure part be like? A description or a photo or drawing to show me something close to it is what I need. Also headwear/head gear, what would she have? Any help is appreciated, any other details that would be important to the portrait are needed. Thanks!

I noticed a lot of people who are proud to be white have brown eyes? I was wondering if they are even white. Don't take it the wrong way, I'm really curious about it. Thanks.

Jathi and Kulam mean caste. You will not find these
words in the Vedas. Varna means Varnana (description).
It describes the four fold division of humans. We know
that humans are divided into four races: the
Indo-European race, the Mongoloid race, the African
race, and the aboriginal Australoid race. The
Indo-European race was called Brahmana Varna because
thay have the quest for higher knowledge. They have
texts on every aspect of knowledge, the other races do
not have as many. The Chinese and Japanes are
classified as Ksatriya because they have long histories of
Emperors. The Europe does not have it. The term Vaisya
was originally applied to farmers and cattle raisers.
The continent which has the largest number of cattle is
Africa. The longest river known in ancient times was
the Nile. It does not provide as many fertile lands as
Ganga.
