My belief is that no one can be a color. I have never seen a pitch black person or pure white. Or red or yellow. Colors had a meaning before they were attributed to people. This is my opinion. I'd like to hear from my fellow "colors".

It's really so you can identify someone out of a crowd. How else will you tell a stranger to look for me? What will you say: "male, wearing blue, not not that blue shirt, the other one, black pants, curly hair, he's tall but not too tall". It'll be easier to elimate others if you start with black male...

It's just because it's easier to say a 'white person' instead of a 'person of European/Northwest Asian descent', etc. Get over it.
