Interesting article - "11 ways race isn't real"

Numbers 3, 6, 7, and 10 are especially interesting...

That's pretty deep

No idea japanese people were once considered white...but that definitely explains 'the last samurai'

As for obamas classification..that depends on whether or not he fucks something up or does something genius

 

What I find most interesting is that every group finds their way into "whiteness" by hating blacks. When will learn this is all bs

 

Nothing new from my book. Though, still good to know that we're slowly getting it. However, on a schizophrenic level...we all revel and embrace these labels as a means of expression.

 

Since we are on the issue

Makes perfect since when you think about it

And I do love Toni Morrison

 

Whats funny the bible normally idwntified people by nation and the god they worshipped

 

Thought-provoking article.

 

Of course not everyone will accept that, in a last ditch effort to maintain supremacy

I can hear all of the 'but buts' now

 

Weird piece since most policemen still think of race.

 

It would be nice if people dealt with you like a humanbeing.

 

Hear, hear!
