Truth!!! (Especially the darn space bar point!)
Oh yeah, Original Poster ... Bi - Racial is a comfort term put into place by those other than White. In reality, since the late 1600's in early America. It was established and still stands today only 2 races/ethnicities ... WHITE and then there's everyone else.

Let me ask you though, who would you classify as "white?" For example, I wouldn't classify Irish or Italian people as "white." Even though a lot of them want to be! That two-cast system that you speak of is dying out very quickly!
Also, do you believe "race" is a false construct?

I'm going to say that if I was forced to assign a color to the "traditional" Irish or Italian, that would have to be "white".
Also, are we fair in assuming "African American" = "black"? "African American" is just another label thrust upon a group of people based on skin color.

So if your white and from South Africa...are you still African American? I mean by the very definitions of the words you would think so. Just saying. Why does it have to be about skin color? And why if you have any black in you the populous considers you black but if you have some Indian or some Asian you could still be white? I know it's off topic but just makes you wonder. Also if your white and from South Africa then move to the states can you get special affirmative action bidding on gov contracts and disadvantaged business rights?

There is "white" and everyone else. And in the case of Blacks ... Please, NO ONE says Black people ... They say the derogatory form of Negroid.

The term "White" was formed as term to designate European once the indentured servitude was changed to all out slavery ONLY for those of color. When New Amsterdam was formed (under Danish rule ... Later became New York under British rule) indentured servants were of all ethnicities. Sometime around 1680, when the European population had a firm strong hold on the Americas and Rice was the cash crop (yes RICE, that the Europeans learned of by way of the African servants who planted it outside of their quarters) and it was far more profitable to plant/harvest it with free labor as opposed to paying workers. With "white" Europeans being the over whelming majority and the controllers of currency and trade, WHITE became right and all other colors were wrong (overly simplified but you get the point).
So Italians, Irish, Spainards, French, German and Russian are all "white" in its term being a designation for European.
And YES, race is a horrid construct. It's a fallacy put into place in the 1700s to dehumanized the "darkies" I order to make separation of slavery palatable.
It's a dirty business, but if you look at the economics of "race" the fog of it all is lifted.

B racail meaning 2 or more races. I clearly do consider myself bi-racail period. My mother is black and my father is from honduras (latin American). So yes there are clearly 2 diffèrent races? I would consider tiger woods bi racail as well (2 seperate races) but thats my personal opinion. I am simply stating that being where i was (area) and being it was two larger black girls YES the outcome was not out of place and her mentality was relevant with the current surroundings. The chances of a similar outcome is more slim in river oaks, cinco ranch, tomball etc than 610& Scott.

The "some" that you mention only do that in mixed company/public speaking for political correctness. No "White" person looks at Tiger Woods and says "He's Asian" or Halle Berry and says she's a White Woman.

The term "white" in contemporary society is more of a comfort term that describes skin color and perpetuate a false sense of supremacy. Let's just be honest, "whites" with wealth do not give a **** about "whites" of the lower income bracket. "Race" not only dehumanize people of the darker hue, but it also is used as a smoke screen for the real issues. I do agree about the economics part you mentioned; case and point, the Civil War. I also agree that people like Halle Berry, etc. are not seen as "white" because in the "white" community, generally speaking, racial purity is a high priority. Only (some) non-whites see having a "bi-racial" background as having a higher value, unfortunately. I only use these terms for conversational purpose and political correctness. Personally, I only deal in nationality.
The term "slave" itself was originally applied to "white" people. It comes from the word "slav," a Russian people captured by the Germans.
Not saying you, but it is interesting how some people try to polarize the issue as it being "white" versus "black" when this was not always the case.
I wouldn't classify the Irish, Spanish, or the Italians as "white" because of the long established history of the Moors in those regions.That bloodline runs deep! There are a lot of European countries that don't even see Italians as "white." That is more of an American ideology than the rest of the world.
Thanks for responding back!

Do you know you are discussing this topic in an intellectual and controlled way on LS1Tech? I miss the days when the only topics "discussed" were: MPG @ 100, bouncy lady things, and the like.

I think there are only 3 races.
Caucasoid.
Negroid.
Mongoloid.
I dated a Caucasoid from South Africa. She was first generation American from South Africa and was 100% more African than the population that calls themselves African American.
I am going to start calling myself English American.

Just thought I'd post my experience last Saturday here for a few laughs and comments. So I was in a not so terrific part of town for a haircut last sat (I'm bi racial) and unfortunately my barbers shop is on Scott &610 in Houston. As I'm waiting my turn to get my haircut I was outside talking on my phone and watching traffic. Anyhow I witnessed a 91-94 ford escort with no rear bumper barely "tap" a 2008-11 Toyota corolla in the rear at an intersection. I basically kept talking and thought nothing of the matter as there was pretty much very little to no damage to neither vehicle. I'm still watching for the Hell if it and I see two black girls get out the Toyota (car that was rear ended) and make talk with the other party (older blk lady). About 5 minutes later I hear the sirens blaring and to my disbelief a fire truck and two ambulances pulls up and blocks traffic while they put two "hippopotamus size" chicks on stretchers because they are severely injured and unable to move. This is when I end my conversation and walk over to see if they are for real (yes I know not my business), I ask why the stretchers and if anyone is "really" hurt? The paramedic being as cordial as possible says both ladies are hurt and he's doing his job (shaking his head slightly to me). This is when I ask the driver of car that rear ended the Toyota if this is real and that there's no way anyone is injured bc there us practically zero damage. This is when the other driver steps out of the Toyota (she was ok but her two fat *** passengers were hurt) and tells me that" yea dey is hurt bad cuz she hit my coor hard as ****", I asked if she looked at her car bc there was pretty much no damage, from that point on every other word out her mouth was f*** this, f*** you and she's gunna fix my ***** f****n s**t. I could not resist asking if she had a slightly broader vocabulary and she continued her ignorant rant and name calling. I told her that her passengers were not going to get anything and she would get about 250 from insurance co at best for a buff job on rear bumper. She responded by telling me since I'm so smart and know so much why "is yo broke *** walkin"? At this point I could not resist and I admit I did sorta stoot to her level and told her I happen to have a stable and pretty decent career. Again she repeated den why you walkin?. I told her to hold on for a few seconds, ran across the street hopped in the F250 (2012 lariat ultimate fx4) lifted on 33's pulled around got out and opened my wallet (I don't carry cash) but pulled out my American express gold card and 2 others. I then asked her who was really broke? And I work for mine not hustle. Needless to say she told me "that doesn't make anybody. Anyhow the cops showed up, I gave my statement and that was that, it just sucks that ppl like that exists.
You're lucky they didn't call their baby (bae) daddys, it would have been a shoot em up!

I like to divide persons by the strain they put on society.
Trash: people taking from a system and not paying into it.
The rest of us: self explanatory.

You can go anywhere and find this kind of trash. Some races (Black) are exploited more than others. Why? Because of a negitive idelology imposed on them by a race that think they are superior to other races. Slavery is as old as the Bible, so sorry white people were not the first slaves! Demograhically all nations in the European population are considered Caucasion. During the slavery period any found with 25% black or other race was considered none white. By todays standard I don't think that has changed no matter how we may feel personnally. There are more mixed races today than any other period in time. I personnally think it's good because it breaks barriors down in races that think they are superior to another. The one thing you can never control is "love". All people were made with this trait by the author of Love "The Great I AM" God.

So what is your point? No one put a color on trash. You seem to care about race. I only care if the are a burden to hard working Americans or not. Anyone on welfare and food stamps is a burden. They are not producing. Only so many people can sit in the wagon before I can't pull anymore! FYI there are more "whites" on welfare than any other race. Oh and the first slaves existed in any oligarchy society. It was enslaved people by their own race. Only when world travels via ships and land became common did ends acing other races become popular! Don't worry we can see your racism coming through!

I was rear ended for real (back of car smashed in) couldn't turn my head for a couple days and only got $500 settlement. the lawyers I talked to wanted me to do all kinds of stuff (hospital, rehab, dr. visits, etc.) before a real case could be made. Lawyers may get them a couple grand settlement but will take a long time and the lawyers get half.

Not Even Nothing racist about my post! I agree with actually. I wasn't talking about the woman and her 15 children, I was talking about the "MEDIA". People on Welfare arn't the only burdens taking your tax money! I work hard everyday, and I'm usually up before most people on a given day. I have been across many boundrys that don't even belong to our nation east and west. I have to be a living example to everyone I come in contact with, by religion and by profession.

Why because of color? You should work hard because that's what Americans are supposed to do. Trust me I have been across many countries borders. So I am not sure what that had to do with the price of tea in china. The government needs to get out of the race game. AA is racism. All that disadvantaged business stuff is too. If all are created equal why is there 2 standards? The problem is people care about race. My children are multiracial but who cares. They are Americans. We could talk about all the things abusing tax payers but welfare is infact theft. So is earned income credit. Neither of them require u to be a certain race to collect. Lazy people are the problem. Cut off free **** and people would stop having 12 kids. Funny they make me register to buy a gun but any moron can have a baby

Don't Worry Don't worry, it's not a fight guy. Life is way too short to get upset behind this topic. Be cool. Besides I got real car issues I'd rather discuss.

I am not upset with u. Just disappointed that race is an issue to u. I thought we live in a country where we ALL are created equal? But you say "whitey" is holding blacks down. Which is not the case. If someone doesn't succeed in life it's because they made a choice not to! Race or gender has nothing to do with it. It's drive and want that make people successful.

?? Hey guy, I did not say anything about skin color. I'm not a racist because I used race in my discussion. I was simply stating some facts about American history, the "media", and demograhics. I'm not white and I don't think I've ever been held down by "whitty". The content of my mind can take me as far as I want to go, not the color of my skin. I'm not speaking from emotion, but from values, morals, education, and Spiritual wisdom. I thank God that you have a relationship with someone outside your ethnic background. I hope you have Blessed New Year. God Bless.
