That is true. I have gotten every job I’ve applied for this year. My husband has had a lot of trouble. He gets great interviews, first, second, third— and then nothing. The only thing on his side — although he looks like a a white guy — he is of mixed race AND he’s “handi-capable” because of a serious accident.

He’s really playing up the mixed race/handi capable angle now. It’s infuriating.

We don't set the rules. All we can do is play the game. This brings to mind Lisa See's career as a Chinese-American literary personality.

If former NAACP chief Ben Jealous is black, the parameters that define ethnicity are pretty broad.
