It is so cute when you try to write in ebonics to cover up your inability to write in English.
What are the white peoples background!?!?sexy myspace myspace.com
cuz thats what they are, like im Italian and German
german british polish whatever they all white (unless its a black british polish whatever) feel me?
i dont know, im 25% Russian and 75% German but i call myself German cause i was born there, to me if your born in America why call your self irish? you werent born there. when i have kids they will be called American not German. thats how i see it
They're proud of their heritages. No need to gloss over them.
Yes, but remember, those things they're rattling off are culture, not races. White folks do have a mixed cultural background, but their race is white.
It would be a similar situation to a family moving to the USA from Africa intermarrying with another African family. Their children would identify themselves as American, but also as Kenyan/Nigerian (or whatever nationality they happened to be).
African Americans in general have difficulty doing this type of classification because of the slave trade. Historical cultural identity loss is just one more sad side effect of American slavery.
Because Europe is divided up into a dozen tiny countries...
If the US were in the same style, then every state would be it's own indipendent country...
Then we would be saying "I'm Illinoyan" and "I'm Californian" instead of saying "I"m Irish" and "I'm German".
Each of the european countries is so distinct from the others, culturally, that they ARE VERY different.
All i know is on my mums side my granddad is Irish and my grandma is white
On my dads side my grandparents are montserratian making me mixed.
