If white people become green with nausea, red with sunburn, blue when cold, yellow with jaundice, and pink when blushing...why do they refer to black people as colored?

he he...yeah thats true. But the fact is whites are the most colored of all people on earth i forget what the genetic material is called but whites have the most of them and blacks have the lease. Also if you buy a color wheel that has every color on in excluding white and you spin it quicly...you will see only the color white.

because back in the day, some racist jack*** decided that white wasn't a color and black is...therefore black people should be referred to as "colored people." But, we turn brown when we tan don't we? I know I do. Maybe I am just odd.

Why do they call them black? Aren't they more brown? Why do they call them white aren't they more tan than white? Hmm brown and tan...not too distant of a color after all!!
