Why is the proposed border wall between the USA and Mexico a race issue? Is the wall around my back yard that keeps your children from drowning in my swimming pool or being eaten by my dog a racial issue? It is not!

Why is it when a black man goes to college, dresses professionally, and gets a “white collar” job, he is said to be “acting white”? I don’t get it. From my point of view our system admin is acting like a “educated professional”. What exacly does "acting white" mean?

I suppose all my drinkin buddies whom are not white, but happen to be professionals, are “acting white” as well.

Is my non-white girl friend “acting white” because she is dating me, and has a “white collar job”?

Sorry, this stuff really sets me off! Grrrr!
