does it exsist? if so what is the order?
bare with me. I want to see how americans have this imaginary hierarchy and i want to know how it sort of looks like.

I know right now here in the westernized white soceity of america. the whites are on the top now which ethnicity seems to be the lightly 2nd? 3rd, and so on.

include the american indians, blacks, asian, south asian, mexicans, latinos, etc. italians aren't anglo saxons nor are the greeks. so don't put them on the whites.

Of course it exists, only it isn't PC to talk about it. Anyway, here is what I think:

Starting at the top and working down:

Whites, Asians, American Indians, Latinos, Middle Easterners, Blacks, Jews.

These seem to be the only races most people see in reality. If you include Italians you have to include Polsih, Irish, German, Ect.

I guess Anglo Saxons, Germans, Greeks, Italians, Polish, Irish.

It probably differs by area and population. Here in the New Haven area, Italians are the main ethnicity, and pretty much get everything they want--don't anger the largest population. Then it's the non-Italian white people and Asian (same neighborhoods for the most part) followed by Puerto Rican, and then black. There are few of us Native people, so we're here but not a part of the hierarchy because the morons around here wouldn't know a Native person if they saw one.
